You Had Me at Polka Dots...

This look from Danielle of Shop Dandy is just so adorable. 

I especially love the top. After finding out it was from the kids' section at Target I had to go on the hunt. I was thrilled to find it last weekend for $8! I love the brooch she added was the like the icing on the cake. So cute. 

I paired the shirt with jeans and pink tennis shoes. This whole outfit makes me happy. You can never go wrong with polka dots or glitter! Of course I added accessories to complete the look!

In the same section I found the shirt, I found this pink headband. I don't wear head bands but I thought I could turn this pink flower into a brooch. It turned out great. I even wore it to spruce up my sweater below!

DIY Tassel Garland

I have been trying to decorate my little office nook in my bedroom and I thought a colorful tassel garland would make a great addition. It did not disappoint. 

I have seen these tassel garlands become more and more popular and who knew they were so easy to make? I used this very easy tutorial over at Linen, Lace & Love blog. Jen and Jess could not have made it any simpler with their step by step instructions with photos! 

Here is my end result. What do you think? 

Supplies Needed:

Assorted Tissue Paper (1 sheet makes 4 tassels!)

Hot Glue Gun and Glue Stick

Scissors

String

This project was not only cheap, but it was easy and didn't take too long (approximately 30-45 minutes)! Now, go get your own tasselin' on! 

Marshall's Love

I was recently notified by Marshall's I won the Instagram #fabfound photo contest. This is an easy contest, you just post of picture of your fab founds at Marshall's. I was so excited to win because who wouldn't want to win a $50 gift card for shopping at my favorite store!?

So anyway, I thought with Valentine's Day coming up next week I would treat myself with some goodies to celebrate! Here are my finds!

First, is this very feminine and sexy duo. I love the blush color and lace. But what I love more is the amazing price I bought them for. The bra was $6.99 and the panties were $1.99! My kind of price!

My next find is probably my favorite! I mean how cute are these flats! I was wandering the clearance section and I rarely find cute clearance shoes in my size but this was like fate. Not only was there only one pair of these shoes, but it was in my size!! It was like a triple threat! I love the bow detail and the color! This was an easy choice! Now, bring on spring!

 This last find was so perfect and festive! I needed a new make-up bag and I couldn't resist the fabulous Betsy Johnson. I love the quilted heart pattern and gold hardware! This is the perfect size for my cosmetics and the price is also nice, $12.99!

I love shopping at Marshall's because you never what you are going to find, but you are always bound to find something you love and for a great price! It is such a great feeling knowing you don't have to spend tons of money to look and feel great!

I was so happy when they featured my pic on their IG feed!
