Hey, friends!

So excited to share with y’all that my absolute go-to spot for wrist candy (is that a thing?!) is have a major sale! In honor of Memorial Day Weekend, the ENTIRE  Victoria Emerson site is buy one, get one free!

Here are a few recent favorites….

I’m loving the combo of this watch and cuff. Give me all the grey, please. The marble detail on the watch is so pretty and it’s a light weight easy fit. Ain’t nobody got time for the fussy stuff.

I’m going to link a few more of my favorites that are back in stock for y’all. Can’t wait to see how you style yours!

Today’s post is sponsored by Victoria Emerson. All thoughts shared are mine!

My mom and I have this joke whenever we are shopping together and we see stripes… Honestly I’ve never known anyone to love stripes as much as my momma does but no matter how many stripes she has in her closet, there’s always room for more. So if we’re out and we see something with stripes (we have a particular weakness for navy and white), we look at each other and say “You know what my closet needs? STRIPES!” followed by rolling laughter.

Hey, at least we know we can find affordable options to fuel our obsession. I absolutely LURVE this little cross body. It’s mom-life friendly (bless it) and also comes in a backpack, and a larger tote. It comes in multiple colors but really why would you need solids when you can have stripes? See, it’s a problem.

I’ve also been loving these tanks from Walmart. I couldn’t believe they were only $10! The material is amazing and thick and the tie detail just adds such a fun little touch.

I always like to remind my people that when shopping at Walmart, it’s really the best to buy online and take advantage of the two day free shipping. If you need help getting up to the $35 minimum, you can always add in some household items. Gotta love getting your toiletries and clothes at the same place!

So thankful to Walmart for sponsoring today’s post. I love having these affordable options to share with y’all!

Kind of flipped a little when this pretty little maxi came in the mail. The color, print, fit, ALL THE THINGS. So. Good! Tie Die pattern is super on trend right now and I love the way this dress embraces that. Wearing a small for reference.

Some of y’all may remember when I shared the most amazing flare jeans from the Sofía Jeans by Sofía Vergara line at Walmart a few months ago. Well, not only are they back in stock, but this dress is from the same line so you know it’s gonna be good.

I think everyone is finally catching on that Walmart is no longer just the destination for toilet paper and bananas! They are seriously making a name for themselves in the fashion industry while still staying true to their affordable price point.

I’m loving how much y’all are loving the goodies I’m finding from there and you’d better believe I’ll keep on sharing more finds!

Believe it or not, Mother’s Day is literally right around the corner! I love using this day as an excuse to spoil me sweet momma and I am sure you do too! I wanted to try to help spark some fun ideas for what you could get your mom, which is why I jumped at the opportunity to partner with QVC for today’s mother’s day gift guide.

When I think of what life was like with my mom when I was growing up, I always remember walking into her cozy little room off the kitchen where she was snuggled up in a blanket, drinking her coffee, reading her Bible, and waiting for me to come in and chat.

My mom has also been someone who takes good care of herself, whether that be her body, skin, mind, etc. She’s just constantly striving to be better and I respect that about her. But girlfriend also knows how to have a good time and she rarely ever says no to a fun treat.

All these memories of my mom have laid the foundation for today’s gift guide. I have been thinking something cozy, something yummy, something to take care of yourself, and something to treat yo self!

Let’s start with the cozy! Barefoot Dreams is an AMAZING brand with a reputation for being theeeeeee comfiest and coziest. Their pieces are definitely an investment but they last AND as an added bonus, QVC has great discounts on Barefoot Dreams goodies. Another bonus! There is free shipping on Barefoot Dreams items from 4/24-4/29 (hint hint).

QVC has a great selection of home decor and these affirmation pillows would make the perfect gift if momma has a room that needs some updating and sprucing up.

Now onto something to help your mom take better care of herself! The clarisonic facial cleansing system helps to take your skin care routine up a notch and again, QVC has it on a special deal for Mother’s Day!

Now for something YUMMY! Is there anything better than a box of chocolates? I think not. I don’t care what the occasion, chocolate is always a good idea and this selection looks amazing!

Finally something that your mom may not get for herself…. JEWELRY. I absolutely loved the simplicity and affordability of these beautiful gold hoops. They are even prettier in person and I know my momma will get a ton of wear out of them.

Be sure to check QVC for even more ideas for what to get your mom for Mother’s Day! Now I’d love to hear from YOU. What are you thinking about getting for your mom for mother’s day? Do you prefer gifts or experiences? Or both?

Mornin! Happy Monday, sweet friends!

Today I’m going to be sharing my review of the Garmin Vivomove HR. I was a little hesitant to even try this watch because I’ve never been a huge smart watch girl. Not for any particular reason except that they normally don’t have a look that goes with my outfits. #priorities

When I saw this watch, I was immediately intrigued. I honestly couldn’t believe a watch could look so good and still function like a smart watch. Well, it does. This beauty isn’t just a pretty face (see what I did there?), it’s also SO useful!

It keeps track of my steps, heart rate, text alerts, weather, sleep patterns, calories burned, and more. It was also super simple to get it all synced up. I just downloaded the Garmin app on my phone, followed the instructions, and BOOM. Done! The touchscreen was good to go.

Garmin has a lot of options available including the suede band (mine is the grey with the rose gold face) or the silicone band. You can also switch out the bands, which I love!

It’s lightweight and very comfortable to wear, which is also super important to me.

I’ve linked a bunch of color options below AND be sure to head to my instagram today to enter to win a watch just like mine!

Even if you don’t win one, you’re still in luck because from April 28th-May 11th, Garmin will be offering $50 off the Vivomove HR. Yay!

Thanks so much to Garmin for sponsoring today’s post. All opinions are my own!

Hey, hey! It’s time for a new blog series, y’all. I’m pretty pumped about this one! We all love an affordable find so each week from here on out, I’ll be rounding up some favorites under $25.

I’ve been pretty much stalking Walmarts website for new arrivals because they’ve been literally killing the game recently. When you spend over $35 on their site, you get FREE TWO DAY shipping, too! CanNOT beat that! Let’s start with this swing dress 🙂 It comes in a TON of colors and it’s only $9! I’m wearing the size small. Best news? It’s got POCKETS!

Another favorite is this SWEET embroidered top. I got a small in this one, too. It looks so cute paired with white shorts or white jeans.

I’m linking up a few other recent finds from Walmart. Would love to hear from y’all on what you want to see next on the affordable finds roundup!

Thank you SO much to Walmart for sponsoring today’s post. All opinions are my own!
