winning!

no, this post isn't about charlie sheen...

recently i entered a contest with mama's a rolling stone and won a $100 gift certificate to one of my favorite online stores, nasty gal. i was beyond stoked, but took my time in spending so i could get just the right things :) and finally, here are my choices:

super cute high waisted blue shorts

way awesome knuckle ring (i don't have anything like this so i was definitely reaching out of my little style box for this one!)

and this way fun yellow bag...if that doesn't scream i'm ready for sunshine, i don't know what does!!

so, many, many thanks to the ladies at mama's a rolling stone and nasty gal...i love love loooooove my winnings :)

where did the week go?

kinda flew by, didn't it?? my mom came in town yesterday so i took the day off to spend with her.  i had to share this photo of the display inside barney's at northpark.

i'm a big daft punk fan so i found it extra entertaining, and especially love the crowdsurfing guy and his cool plaid tie. i love to go in there even though i can't afford anything because they always have the coolest displays!

anyhoo mom and i had a great day shopping and eating and catching up...i truly cherish these moments we get to spend together :)

i hope your week was fabulous and you have a great weekend!!

i can see for miles and miles

a while back i read about warby parker on some fellow bloggers' sites and was very intrigued. originally i was interested because they offer great styles of eyeglasses for $95 flat, but then i learned that they're a bit of a TOMS for the glasses world:

Warby Parker partners with renowned non-profits, such as RestoringVision.org, to deliver one pair of glasses to someone in need for every pair that we sell. In doing so, we enable you to share the gift of vision with someone who can’t see today and give them the opportunity to read, to work and to live a fuller life. 

so i decided to take the plunge and purchase a pair online. i went with the "miles" in sandalwood matte. love them. they're such a great style and fit perfectly when i got them. my friend ginger got the "webb" and they are incredibly cute on her.  plus, who can resist their awesome packaging?? so if you're in the market for some new glasses, check out warby parker.  i mean, $95? that's less than what i paid for my last pair with insurance!
