Under $30 Gifts

I've got a family of 11 to buy holiday presents for, but I always want to get gifts for coworkers, friends, neighbors, etc.  It can be hard to think of a gift that isn't overly expensive, but still thoughtful and nice.  Here are some more affordable options that could even make great stocking stuffers!

Get Your Gifting On

I LOVE gift giving.  I wish I had millions of dollars to give my friends and family the most radical gifts that I think would be perfect for them, but I haven't yet won the lottery....so I gotta be a little more practical.  I am hoping to do a couple of these before the holiday season is over, but here is my first!

Taste the Rainbow

As I get dressed every morning and stare into my closet full of black, white, heather grey, and army green, I picture what it would be like to have a fun and vibrant closet.   A fantastic colored garment can really make you stand out and look quite chic and expensive.  And the right colors are timeless and season-less.

.....I'm thinking a closet redo for my bday with more colors like these!

Weather Confused Wishes

It's cold, then it's hot, then it maybe might be cold again?  Oh LA, you keep me on my toes and make me want clothes from both seasons...

Jeepers Keepers

As Halloween rolls near every year, it really sneaks up on me! I have grand notions of making my costume (I wanted to be Cher from Clueless this year), but then time totally runs out.  I end up being stuck buying some over-priced, poorly made, and not so creative costume that I never want to wear again.  It feels like such a waste of money.

If only our closets already had these gems sitting in them, we could be subtle yet stylish, and for sure get use of these goodies again and again.... 


in case you couldn't guess, it's a mermaid and Little Red Riding Hood =)

Copy That: Sweatshirts and Mini Skirts

Who wouldn't live in sweatshirts, yoga pants, and sneakers if the universe allowed it? Well, good thing graphic sweatshirts and mini skirts have made their way to street style....it's close enough, so I'll take it!

Cowtow to Cow Teal

A mini edit of a room today...you all know I love animal prints and being from Texas and all that good stuff.  I also love teal as it is my sorority color and oh so similar to a little blue box everyone knows and loves..

all items not labeled from One Kings Lane.

Today in things I can't afford...

I probably would be nervous to touch most of these....the purse is on my Christmas list with fingers majorly crossed.

The Ann Demeuilemeester is a ring that is filled with diamonds! Don't even need to know the price to no touchy.  The Delpozo was on sale for roughly $3k, and sold out yesterday (holy cow).  Alexandre Vauthier is also on sale for $3k if you're feeling rich.  That purse though...only $695.. since we are comparing, look how cheap! ;)

What's Black & White and Awesome All Over

A zebra with awesome accessories of course!  I love putting in a pop of color with a black and white outfit.  Teal, red, mustard, hot pink...all would work easily with any black and white outfit.  If you're feeling really daring, add leopard!

For jewelry with the below, I'd do basic silver or gold - chunky for the left and delicate for the right.
