gatsby & girls night

Top: c/o Classic & Bubbly, Jeans: Marshalls, Wedges: Old Navy, Bag: Marc by Marc Jacobs, Bracelets & Necklace: Sophistifunk

Happy Friday!...and Weekend!

Colton and I are going on a date tonight- dinner at my favorite restaurant and then going to (finally!) see The Great Gatsby. Between the massive amounts of food and Leonardo DiCaprio, I might not survive the night. Last Friday, we went on a date, just the two of us, for the first time in a long time. We'd gotten used to seeing each other so often that when we did go out for a date, we'd want to include our friends. We had such a great time together last week that we decided to make date night a more regular thing.

On Saturday, I'm getting together with some friends for a long overdue GIRLS NIGHT! Can you tell I'm excited? More on that next week ;)

Does anyone have anything exciting planned for the weekend?

it's gettin' hot in here

Top: Xi Clothing (old), Skirt: c/o Classic & Bubbly, Wedges: Target, Clutch: Kohl's, Necklace & Bracelets: Sophistifunk

It's officially, official. Summer has arrived in Arizona. For the past week, the high has been in the triple digits. I can't wait for it to "cool down" this weekend!...and by that I mean 91 degrees.

Luckily, I've got some fun new warm weather clothes that I can't wait to share with you- starting with today's skirt from Classic & Bubbly! My good friend Stesha just launched her online boutique on Monday and I'm seriously in love with everything in the shop. This skirt is so light and airy and perfect for hot summer days. To check out the other items she has listed, go here. To celebrate opening week, Stesha has marked everything 25% off with free shipping included! (No discount code is needed.)

the blow dryer that changed my life

I know, I know...the title of this post sounds a bit dramatic. I should probably clarify that the blowdryer changed the life of my HAIR. Don't believe me? See for yourself...
(Sorry about the quality of the before photo, turns out I'm not so great at taking photos of the back of my head.)

I was always skeptical that certain blowdryers could really make a difference in my hair. I just figured a $20 dryer from my local drugstore would do the trick, because how much can one machine blowing out air versus another make a difference? Since receiving my HANAair Professional Air Dryer, I've found that it can make all the difference in the world. It has cut the time it takes for me to blowdry my hair in half and eliminates nearly all of the frizz. It's life changing, I tell you! I should also mention that in the above photos I used the exact same products to get the end results.

When I opened my package from HANA, I was pleasantly surprised. Not only did I receive the dryer, but a brush, nail products, hand sanitizer, chocolates, and a rose! Seriously, so sweet and very unexpected. 

And here she is in all of her beauty!

P.S. To purchase your very own HANAair Professional Air Dryer and other great products, visit Misikko.
P.P.S. I'm happy to answer any other questions you might have before purchasing!

coral & navy

Top: Old Navy, Pants: Gap (on sale!), Belt: Target, Wedges: Lucky Brand, Necklace: Forever 21, Bracelet: Sophistifunk, Bag: Louis Vuitton

One of my favorite color combinations these days is coral and navy. When I found this top at Old Navy, I knew I wanted to pair it with these pants. (I'm wearing the same top in a different style here.) And yeah, that's about all I have to say about my outfit. Let's face it, looking at clothes is a lot more interesting than reading about them.

On another note, it really doesn't feel like summer yet even though I'm five days in. It better hit me soon though because summer school starts in just two short weeks....blah. These past few days of freedom I've spent making lots of jewelry while watching way too much 24. Seriously, how have I not watched this show until now?! I've also spent lots of time hanging out with my blogger turned real-life friend Stesha. Did you hear she's opening an online clothing boutique? If you haven't yet, be sure to check out the pre-sales happening daily on her blog!

Alright, I'm outta here. I've got a lot of Jack Bauer watching to do.

P.S. Be sure to check out the 50+ new items added to Sophistifunk: The Shop! When purchasing, don't forget to use the discount codes from yesterday's post ;)

shop 'til you drop!

Hey there, love muffins.

I'm so happy to be back to blogging after a week hiatus! And, ooooh, what a week it's been. It's involved final exams in my hardest semester of college, doing a complete makeover to Sophistifunk:The Shop, and a horrible case of pink eye.

By the way, can someone please explain why I decided it would be a good idea for me to add 50+ new bracelets to my shop during finals week? I clearly wasn't thinking.

To celebrate the shop makeover, I've decided to give you all a little treat...discount codes!
