Sunday Re-cap

Hello! And a special hello to all my new followers!! Today’s post is a quick Sunday re-cap. A quick trip to Nordstrom earlier today (to make some returns) turned into quite a funny afternoon with my 3 year old, who told me “You should buy that!” about pretty much anything he saw! We both loved this dress, by A.L.C. that we saw on a mannequin!  These tan boots, by free people, that I tried on were pretty awesome too!! I loved the leather overlay. At the end, we came home with this adorable bunny. It may be the softest and cutest bunny ever for $20. The brand JellyCat makes the best stuffed animals, and ever since we bought one for my friend’s baby 2 years ago, my boys won’t stop talking about it! Oh, and I forgot to pick up a new lip gloss – these are my favorites by Fresh! Check them out, I’ll need to order online. So moisturizing and last forever!

Anyways, while you watch the Golden Globes tonight, you might want to check out the 90% off GILT sale! So many great finds!

And in case, you need some new boots-My favorite pair (Belle by Sigerson Morrison) are on super sale (as seen here on my insta). Only 7.5 and 8.5 left- don’t miss out!

Have a great night and good week! xxx, Nikki
