Happy Friday! Oh raise your hand if you are so excited for this 3 day weekend? I cannot wait! I need to soak up some sun that is for sure. The sales are upon us. I had to stop by the apple store yesterday and the mall was packed with sales, so naturally I had to go online and find the coupon codes to add to it. You’re welcome? I hope everyone has a safe and happy Labor day.
Favorite Song
Cool Summer vibes tune for one last weekend? Spada & Elen Levon “Cool Enough”.
Favorite Recipe
Healthy colorful eats. Pull out that spiralizer for this recipe.
Favorite Workout
Love these print and take workouts.
Favorite Purchase
Honestly Bloomingdale’s is where I score the best deals when they have sales. Not only do they take great discounts but then they go and add coupon codes on top of it. Use BIG20 to take an additional 20% off the sale right now. How fabulous is this dress? Especially at that price point plus another 20% off. The perfect black maxi skirt. I have this Joie top and it’s so versatile for work, tucked into a skirt or casual. I love the wash on these skinnies.
For everyone who was coveting the J.Crew Herringbone vest last year. Guess what? It’s 50% off grab it now! It sells out so quickly and usually is excluded from sales. I have it and no lie I wore it at least 3 times a week. Everything on J.Crew factory is 50% off through Labor Day.
Gap has 40% off the entire site.
Kate Spade 25% off sale items, I am in love with this purse.
Madewell has 30% off I’ve had my eye on this bucket bag
Saks has some killer sale points right now including this Joie top.
Nordstrom has their 40% off Summer sale going on, swooning over this Tory Burch purse that is half off.

i’m waiting for the spiralizer thing to go on sale because i can’t find it in me to spend $45 on it :( damn canadian prices!!

I was looking at that vest on the factory store and was worried it wouldn’t be the same as the retail version. Now that I know it will be on its way to me soon! Happy Friday!
I can always count on you to have an awesome song!!!! Have you heard the one I shared today? I think you would dig it! I was obsessed with that vest last year but couldn’t pull the trigger on the price. You are so tempting me with that sale!!! And I totally scoped out that purse on the sale the other day and kept smacking my hand away from purchasing that pretty little thing. I dont need it. Hmmmm or do I??? That first gif! LOL!!! That is how I feel balancing all my stuff as I leave in the morning too. Why do we have so much stuff???? Hope you have a great weekend!!!
I am obsessed with my Herringbone vest too! It gets so much use during Fall! Also LOVE that Madwell bucket bag!

Oh man…you and these sales. You get me in trouble so often…I think you might need to employ me somehow so I can afford to pay for all of the things you tell me about on sale lol

I always love your funnies! Have a great long weekend!

You always find such amazing recipes! That one looks so good. I need new recipes for my spiralizer, so I want to give that a try. And YAYYYYY for 3 day weekend!
Yay for Labor Day sales! Hope you have a nice, long weekend!
Such great sales – I love that JCrew vest. And YESSS to carrying everything into work. Oh my gosh, sometimes I get to my desk and think, “I’m pretty sure that was a full day’s work right there.” Happy weekend!
LOL that is so me too with all the bags, my husband calls me a bag lady, lol! I have no less than my purse, my bigger bag with my planner and books, water bottle, and my lunch bag every morning. And then add an umbrella to that if it’s raining! Ooo pretty stuff on sale! I have no money to spend on shopping so I will just have to live vicariously through everyone else, lol! Happy 3 day weekend!
haha that last gif. classic! i’m headed to the mall this weekend and i’m sure it’ll be dangerous. so much for saving haha. love that bucket bag! we need a madewell in orlando so bad. have a wonderful weekend love!!

OMG, funny story: So I was a TA in grad school grading undergrad papers, right? And this student REPEATEDLY kept citing Wiki as a legit source. I pulled her into the office for a meeting with the actual prof and told her (for about the 10th time) that wiki is indeed not a peer-reviewed source and that if she used it again, she’d fail the class. Got that exact look from your GIF. WTF is wrong with kids these days?! I can say this to you because we’re the same age :)
YAY for the 3 day weekend, I’m fried and this couldn’t have come at a better time! And I was super excited about the J. Crew vest being on sale, until I read the reviews and it seems like the quality isn’t as good this year and the herringbone design is printed onto the vest and is not a part of the actual material. Not cool J. Crew!
Have a fabulous weekend gurlie, and let me know if you come into town :-D
Ahhh the vest is back! haha, I just remember my Pinterest being blown up with it last year. I might finally have to make the plunge and get it. Happy weekend!
Ooh, love that vest!!!!!!!! And excited about a new spiralizer recipe! I just bought one a month or so ago so am looking to use it more!
You get me every week with your gifs!! That last one is the best. If only I had a 3 day weekend this weekend… Sigh. Anyways.. love all of your picks for Labor Day sales. We’re having a sale at work that I seriously hope that I can combine my employee discount with. That recipe looks delicious, I have done that Self magazine workout too, its pretty good. Thanks for sharing your faves and I hope that you have a fab weekend!!! :-)
I have a Madewell leather bag, similar in color and I adore it! Finally an extra day to recover, shopping those sales sounds like the perfect idea!
I couldn’t be more ready for this long weekend and nothing beats holiday sales – I’m hoping to run out to the mall in a minute to check them out. Haha love the oh well funny – a sale is a sale and we must have all the matching items, right!?
Yay for Labor Day Sales! That Madewell bag is too cute! I shared your link today in my Friday Favorites. I have really enjoyed reading all your blogging tips as I am just starting out and trying to up my following. And I totally had a starstruck moment when you favorited my tweet! Thanks for always sharing your tricks and your funnies are always spot on! Have a wonderful weekend!

I love the green color of that bag! It’s fun while still being neutral. I don’t like having to change purses for different outfits. :) Happy holiday weekend!
Love the song! Definitely has that chill summer vibe :) And thanks for the sale tips- I may finally bite the bullet and get the vest! Happy 3 days weekend!
I have ready mixed reviews on the herringbone vest; would love to hear your opinion and experience in comparison to the negative reviews! I am SO close to pulling the trigger on it.. ;-)
So many sales, so little time. :) Thanks for rounding everything up – I hope Ryan doesn’t divorce me at the end of this weekend, lol. Have a good one, lady!
ahh! so excited about all the sales this weekend. must. pace. myself ;) xo jillian – cornflake dreams
Love the vest! It is so true that it can be a total workout to get all my stuff out of the house in the morning. haha. Hope you have an amazing long weekend.
I need a spiralizer! Do you have one you like?
I started sale shopping yesterday! It’s a marathon not a sprint ;) Have a great long weekend!!
That herringbone vest is amazing, and I have been lusting after that same mint Kate Spade purse! Well all Kate Spade purses really. I need to lay off the sales this weekend because August was a huge money suck for me. Happy 3 day weekend though!!!
There are so many good sales right now! It’s hard for me to pick! This is awesome!
That spiralizer recipe looks fabulous!!

I love that vest! I am trying so hard not to spend money right now, but the Kate Spade sale might get me!
Ok, the recipe again!!! Right up my alley. My spiralizer is my best friend now bc once I hit 35 I could no longer even look at normal noodles without puffing up like a Macy’s Day float. Seriously. GRRRR.
You’ve also reminded me that I really need that Madewell bucket bag.
Happy Friday, pretty girl! Hope you enjoy your weekend:)

J Crew factory is my jam. And obvi I’m in love with that Kate Spade purse! I’m having a hard time purchasing Fall/Winter clothes when it’s still in the 90’s in NC but can’t wait for cooler temps and to spice up my winter wardrobe. Xoxo
Ooh so many good sales!! That bucket bag is so fab! Have a great weekend!!
I really need a spiralizer! I am obsessed with my J.Crew vest too! Hope you have a great weekend! xo, Champagne&Suburbs
That Madewell bucket bag is so cute! I love Madewell bags. The one I have has held up so well. That last gif. SO accurate. Enjoy your weekend!
Ugh I had a student this week tell me that something had to be fact because they saw it on… INSTAGRAM!
Adding that spiralizing meal to my menu this week….YUM.

Nordstrom sale? I hate you. (Well, I love you but PETE is going to hate you…)
