Cyber Monday Mania

November 28, 2016

ipad-tablet-technology-touch-800x550You know Cyber Monday has reached a new level when my husband asks, “how do I figure out this whole Cyber Monday thing??” He is NOT a shopper; this is serious. So, I’ve taken a break from designing our family Christmas card (doesn’t it seem like everything happens all at once this time of year?!), and I’m bringing you even more screamin’ steals.  You should pay attention this time…because these deals are too good to last much longer!

For my sister: cozy jammies are our tradition.  Right now, 20% off EVERYTHING at Anthropologie and free shipping when you spend at least $150. I’m also eying candles, holiday decor, and everything velvet!

For our teachers: they deserve a treat! I’m loving my Julep ‘Maven’ monthly subscription box. Today only, 50% off site-wide with code “CYBERWIN.” Their lovely polishes (which literally last forever) and beautiful makeup also make great stocking stuffers and hostess gifts…just sayin’.

For the hubs: this is a tough one every year…I’m not going to lie, he’s the most difficult on my list! He lives in James Perse tees, and several are on sale right now at Nordstrom, where you can take an additional 20% off sale merchandise (thru today only).

He’s likely dreaming of more gadgets. I’m not sure that I will relent, but an Xbox is on his wishlist (every year). Right now you can save BIG on Amazon for all of the gadget-lovers on your list, but you have to HURRY! These deals are only good for today.

For my kids: we are Lego obsessed in my house! The kids have built a Lego city (complete with a Moto Shed and bank – there is some kind of barter system). They have been begging for the volcano set, go figure.  Save an extra 15% off at Target today.  This is my stop for toys, toys, toys!

Hanna Andersson jammies are a must in our household. Every year the kids get a new pair of “hannas” and they last nearly the entire year. A slammin’ deal online today only, 20% off EVERYTHING. I also snag pairs for my nieces.

I’ve been good all year…mostly. Here’s a little something I’m eyeing for myself on Shopbop. Today is the last day to save as much as 25% off their entire site with code “GOBIG16”!

How-To: Holiday Shop for Cyber Deals Online

November 22, 2016

Online shopping black friday salesIt’s the time of year to start preparing for the online deals that have already started to crop up on the Internet.  ‘Black Friday’ has seemed to have crept into Thanksgiving and even earlier this week! And, of course, there’s ‘Cyber Monday’ now too.  Rather than get distracted by all of the chatter online, it’s important to prepare in advance…your wallet and shopping list will benefit! Below are some simple tips to keep your online shopping on track:

  1. Make your list and check it twice. It’s so easy to overspend when your purchase is simply a click away! Instead, take inventory of what you may need (think: holiday parties, winter activities, home decor, and even travel plans!). Make your gift list and set a budget. Family, friends, teachers, hostess gifts, your hair stylist, garbage collectors, mailmen, and more!
  2. Subscribe to mailing lists to ensure that you are receiving retailers’ sale notifications in advance.
  3. Search for promo codes prior to clicking the “purchase” button. Coupon Cabin, Retail-Me-Not, Deals Plus, and even Groupon are all great options.
  4. Ask your preferred retailers to price match, if you find a product for less elsewhere. They want your business and will likely agree.
  5. Think outside of the box when making your gift lists.  Consider experiences such as travel, dining, classes, and other adventures.  Subscription boxes are also a fun idea and there are options for everyone on your list (beauty, wine clubs, fitness, cigars, even maple syrup!)

Shopping Cyber Week Deals

Check back in later this week because I’ll be sharing deals from some of my favorite sites.  I’m also preparing gift lists to help get your Christmas shopping wrapped up in time for the holiday!

Thanks for reading! ~Jenn

How-To: Holiday Shop Online

November 24, 2015

bokeh-christ-christmas-christmas-tree-coffee-Favim.com-113045

‘Tis the season for online sales a’plenty.  In an effort to not get swept-up in seemingly too-good-to-be-true deals, keep in mind these golden rules of internet shopping:

  • Only shop retailers you trust.  My go-to’s include, but are not limited to the following:
    • (apparel) Nordstrom, Shopbop, Zappos, Bloomingdales
    • (cosmetics) Sephora, Beauty.com,  Nordstrom
    • (home decor) Anthropologie*, Williams Sonoma*
    • (kids) Hanna Andersson*, Mini Boden, YoYo
  • Free-shipping and returns are a MUST.  Around the holidays, extended returns are critical for gift buying.  If there are no free returns, ensure that you can return the item(s) to a brick and mortar store.  Also, pay attention to estimated delivery dates to ensure timely delivery of your gifts.  Keep an eye out for backordered warnings and, as the holidays approach, pay attention to shipping deadlines.
  • No final sale…EVER.  Enough said.
  • Know your sizing and how brands fit.  This is also important as you shop for those on your gift list.
  • Search for coupon codes before purchasing.  I always look for an item or enter the retailer’s name and “coupon code” or “free shipping” to ensure I haven’t missed a great deal.

*Look for “free shipping” offers from these sites.

When shopping large sites, it helps to refine your search.  Be as specific as possible.  If you know exactly what you’re looking for, use the search function.  For larger sites, refine by your size, brands you like, color, and/or items (for example, size 8, coats, pink).

“Black Friday” and “Cyber Monday” deals seem to have crept in to earlier in the week, so it’s worth taking a peek before you sign-out from the office for the holiday.

Stay tuned for more of my favorite online sales and holiday picks coming to the blog later this week.  Happy clicking! And, don’t forget to include your UPS delivery man on your Christmas list.  ~Jenn

Each day I’ve intended to post here. I greeted t Each day I’ve intended to post here. I greeted the new year feeling inspired with a renewed intention for my account; to share with you the goodies I love, wear, try. Unfiltered and honest. That’s what I’m here for. But then...2021 arrived feeling much like her older sister, 2020. Instead, I’ve avoided a lot of social media; choosing to tune into various news outlets and into my family. So, HERE WE ARE. A post proving that I got dressed yesterday, wearing some of my new favorites (these @flamingosshoes white boots!) and steady stand-bys (year 2 wearing this @notmondaymercantile beanie on repeat). I took the kids out after school to run a couple of errands and connect with a business I love to support; we made plans for a spring share. Man, it felt good to get out! And now, I’m posting early before I’ve read the morning news. So, it’s happened.

Please stay safe, remain respectful, and true to yourself. Social media is a beautiful way to connect, create, and inspire...but can also be a dangerous rabbit hole of misinformation and an opportunity for people to behave in a way they ordinarily wouldn’t in person. Off my soap box. Have a lovely Friday!#wordsfrommyheart #realoutfitgram #flamingosshoes #whiteboots #notmondaymoments
Happy New Year my dear friends! I’ve missed you Happy New Year my dear friends! I’ve missed you all but enjoyed a nice long break. Heading back home after some snow time and I’m feeling re-energized (for now). Isn’t it funny how a change in the calendar can make you feel different? Are you a “new year, new you” kinda gal or more indifferent? I do like a good reset. Even though we’ll be doing more of the same early this year, I’m feeling more optimistic. For now. Cheers to 2021!

Also, posted in stories a nearly identical photo of us from last January at the top of @schweitzer_mountain. While the photos look the same, it’s fun to think that we now are Sandpoint homeowners! A positive outcome of 2020. #newyearonthemountain #snowbest #schweitzermountain #skifamily
Snow plus a Christmas sweater...I’m checking all Snow plus a Christmas sweater...I’m checking all the boxes this year. Thinking of everyone not able to spend time with loved ones this year. I’m so grateful for our little family but really missing my parents, siblings, nieces and nephews, my in-laws.  Over a year seems far too long to be apart; but we all need to continue to be safe. It matters. #christmassweater #christmas2020 #staysafestayhome #vintagesweater
Let’s make merry! Although holiday traditions ma Let’s make merry! Although holiday traditions may look different this year; we have an opportunity to get creative and share in new experiences. Like the new-to-me homemade marshmallow recipe, @thekirstyfiles and I have the pleasure of bringing to you in partnership with @pacific_place. We encourage you to invite a few pals to a zoom date, pop a bottle of bubbly, and create these delicious confections together. I promise they’re relatively fool proof (I pulled them off!) AND a sugar-high afternoon spent with friends (even virtually) will be sure to get you in the holiday spirit! Tune in to Pacific Place’s IGTV or YouTube to see the full tutorial, including my gaff when my marshmallow began moving into the “hard ball” territory (note: this recipe does require a candy thermometer and the ability to read it!). Cheers to making the most out of holiday 2020! #homemademarshmallows #pacificplaceseattle #craftingtogether
Ooooh...how I love a good shopping day with a frie Ooooh...how I love a good shopping day with a friend. The belly laughs, chit chat, and groans (as we tried on a number of jeans) provided the escape from reality that I needed. Sometimes you don’t realize just how much you miss something until you get to enjoy it again!
.
.
Other things I love? Soft luxury cashmere, designer denim that fits like a glove, and packable hats (yes, packable!). All can be found @willaseattle; a small, women-owned boutique located in the heart of the Queen Anne neighborhood in Seattle. Be sure to check out our stories as @thekirstyfiles and I share holiday-perfect gifts for your sister, mother, girlfriends...yourself! Lucky for Kirsty and I, our husbands also know the lovely owner, Liz (and she has our wishlists on file)! 
.

Also very near and dear to my heart, Willa is the epitome of shopping local. The shelves are stocked with unique, small business designs; including many Seattle businesses. When you shop local, you not only support your community but also curate a look all your own!

Continued chronicles of dressing stylishly for you Continued chronicles of dressing stylishly for yourself, aka #stayathomestyle. Sure, 2020 may be the year of the sweatpant (combined with a sleeping bag-like coat, as seen here). And yes, a mask chain is this year’s hottest accessory. BUT I still take care to actually get dressed each day. And while lipstick may no longer be a part of my daily routine (I mean, was it ever??), it’s still important to be pulled together..if only for my own mental health. And even if no one else sees it but the grocery clerk. #whatmamaworemonday #sweatpantsseason

On the eve of Black Friday sales bonanza, I hope t On the eve of Black Friday sales bonanza, I hope to inspire, remind, urge, and even beg you to ignore all of the crazy cyber sales that have been creeping into your inbox for the past week and instead SHOP SMALL this holiday season. Yes, perhaps it’s less convenient and even less of a “deal” but this pandemic is putting an even greater strain on the small and local businesses that are the absolute life blood of our communities. And, in addition to supporting an entrepreneur and neighbor, you’ll likely find more creative, individual, and unique gifts for your loved ones by shopping a small business.
