LC Lauren Conrad Line

I am in love with this line. I saw it at Kohls a while back but wasn't paying a lot of attention to it. Not because it wasn't cute but because I knew nothing about her.

I remembered her name but that was pretty much it. Now I know where I slightly recognized her from... The Hills... I never watched it lol. But she is super cute and my age which makes me super happy.

So when I actually had time to walk around I did and look at this freaking adorable trench!Look at the super cute bow in the back!

OH and the lining... so sweet...


Her entire line has a sweet flirty vibe to it. Which I absolutely adore because I am only 25 and just because I am a mom to a four year old, doesn't mean I have to dress like a "MOM".

I didn't buy the Jacket, because I am not sure on the color for my skin tone. I did buy a work suit ... which I returned today because I found out the job I applied for doesn't have gray in the dress code. So I got some other goodies which I will post about tomorrow.

Shirt review for Costume Squad

I contacted Costume Squad about reviewing one of their t-shirts. They have funny tees, 80's tees,tuxedo tees, zombie tees and much much more. (Including Costumes of course.)

I choose the choose your weapon tee from the girls tees section. I am super picky about my tee shirts they have to comfortable, and soft I hate rough fabric. I was worried these shirts might A) not fit well and B) not be super soft because of the printing.

They did not disappoint, the cotton in this tee is SUPER soft and oh so comfortable. It's almost velvety soft.

The size was perfect for me, nice and stretchy but fits well. I also love that it was a little longer then most average tees no worries about my low rise jeans showing more then they should.

I washed it once according to the directions and the print is still intact and the shirt is still soft.
I would absolutely recommended the tee shirts from this site to my friends and family!

Trips to Kohls

Ok so I had to return a ring I bought a few weeks ago because one of the stones fell out. I was so disappointed. I couldn't find my receipt but Kohl's was so great about the return. They just looked it up and let me swap it out for something of the same value.

I choose this necklace and earrings set.

I also picked up this huge beauty... Less the 10$! Woot for coupons!

I have been on the hunt for a jewelery box also and guess what happened to be in the clearance section? ... It was on sale from 100$ to 30$.

I also found a cute pair of Carters Band boots for my little guy! From 34.99 to 6.99$

When I bought those I got a 10$ off coupon. So Today I bought myself a super cute lightweight trench. Check out how cute this is...

what I wore Tuesday...






So I flaked out last Wednesday so I will do what I wore Tuesday and what I wore Wednesday.

It rained all day yesterday and was still chilly this morning.
SO I grabbed a black tank from my Old Navy Tank stash, threw this cute purple sweater on.
A pair of American Eagle Jeans. My necklace and earrings set is from kohls, my huge chunky ring is also from Kohl's I think the brand it City Rox. My studded belt was also from Kohls.

And on my feet... BOOTS... I love boots! These are Style and Co. from Macy's.

Make up is mostly bare minerals. I will have another post on that.

Hair is curled and two days dirty!

Don't forget to enter my giveaway!

Fashion for 4 yr old boys

Kelton is desperate for me to blog about him and his clothes too... I am thinking maybe he should do what I wore Wednesdays with me... then I can't be lazy and not do it!

We went to Kohls the other day and he informed me he needed some shorts.. very true this kid is out of little kids clothes and into big kids.

So we went and looked at clothes... This kid of course wants the coolest clothes. So this is what he picked out.

All Tony Hawk... This kid isn't a skater and has no clue who Tony Hawk is.

I very rarely buy him anything that isn't on super clearance, as I feel childrens clothing it extremely over priced. But his little face is so cute I can't say no all the time. He also needed some pj's that weren't fleece...hello mom we live in California...it's warm. Here is the pj's he picked.



I got all this 50% off with coupons and sale prices.
Still ended up running me 70$. That's crazy.. but I have a very happy little man!

Product review Kid's lip armor by All Terrain




I received my twin pack of lip armor in bubble gum and cherry flavor last Friday!
My son was so excited he begged me to let hi try right away. I am very picky about my chap sticks.

I often find some are too slick or waxy. These are amazing.

We 1st tried the bubble gum flavor. It felt so wonderful going on. Nice and smooth. My son and I both enjoyed the way this one smelled, slightly sweet but not to strong. My son didn't complain of burning or try to rub it off as he sometimes does. He actually looked at me and said "Mommy my lips feel good." I had to agree they felt so soft and had a slight bubble gum taste.

The next day he wanted to try the cherry flavor. Again we both greatly enjoyed everything about the chap stick. I now can't get these back from him. He want's to take them to school or carry them in his pocket.


Now for the stuff the mommy in me adores. These are petroleum-free,paraben-free, are made with natural oils , SPF25 to protect from sun, they contain no animal ingredients and are NOT tested on animals, and they have NO artificial colors.

Also for the first time in months my son's lips are not cracking!!! I would absolutely recommend this to all my friends with children and even those without!

I received one or more of the products mentioned above for free using Tomoson.com. Regardless, I only recommend products or services I use personally and believe will be good for my readers.

Red hair and my eyes close up


Everyone thinks I have brown eyes or green eyes until they actually stop and look at them. In elementry school I convinced the other kids I was going to turn into a cat on my 16th birthday.... then would randomly meow at them. haha those were the days...

I don't know who was thinking what when I was born blond and then my hair turned dark brown with red.. but let me tell you ... I should have been a red head. I have the skin tone for a red head.

Btw my hair is getting so long... and I am loving it.

what I wore Wednesday...

Watch - relic brand from sears
black bracelet- Irenew- one of those balance bracelet thingys
shirt- Kohls - clearnce for 5$

I'm a red head again!

It has been a busy weekend here. I actually colored my hair last week but have been busy and with both the kiddo and I sick things haven't been going super well.

I did swing by old navy yesterday and get some of the ribbed camis with lace. Since they were one sale for 5$ each.

The weekend was spent mostly doing stuff around the house or for the house. Check out my other blog to see that info.

A picture to make up for the makeup less....


A picture for the make up less one from my forever 21 post.
See what a little make up and a shower can do?

walking through Macy's...

We were headed into the mall and I saw these bad boys on the sale table and asked the gal to check the price.. and guess what 8.95 ... Oh yeah so I got 3 of them in different colors.
I might have to retie one of them since it slides loose when i wear it.

But they are super pretty, don't you think?

Forever 21... sweaters..etc

The other day I went to the mall and stopped at forever 21. I don't buy much there because I feel like the quality does not live up to the price.... But when things are on sale and I have a gift card... heck yeah I am there.

I got 3 sweater things, all in stripes... I am not a huge fan of stripes but I know I can make them look good!

The 1st one I bought is definately my favorite.. cost 8.99
I think I will used this one ALL the time.

BTW please excuse the lack of make up and messy hair, also the super pale skin, I am normally pale but have been sick so I am extra pale today!







The 2nd one and 3rd are the same just in different colors, one is gray the other is pinkish purpley( yes that is a new word for you.) I think I will have to alter these a bit... or wear a big belt with them! Cost 5.99 each

My son picked out this little top for me and I couldn't say no to him when he told me I would be beautiful in it. What a sweet boy! cost 6.99

I also saw these cute little necklaces and at 2.50 each I thought I would grab them they would be super cute for layering or make great little gifts!
