Discover Discovered

/
Discovered is J.Crew's new collection of all of their favorite "in good company" products. They have been pairing up with other brands for a few years now to create products from other company's that will be sold through J.Crew.
Yesterday, my news feed was quickly filled with bloggers tweeting and posting about Discovered. Curious me, I did a little research. Their is a tab on J.Crew's website that features thier favorites for woman, men and kids. Below are some of my favorites.

 

I had been thinking about getting a pair of aviators again, 
now I can't stop thinking about these rose-colored glasses.

This versatile bag is hard to tell but it is actually navy and 
folds all the way up into a clutch.
 
I think it is time to finally purchase one of these Nars lip pencils. 
There is obviously a reason why they are so great if they made it on J.Crew's Discovered list. 
They are described as a combo between a moisturizer and a lipstick. Sounds perfect to me.
Three of my other favorite products include  
1. a stud and stone necklace 
2. a color blocked kid's cambridge satchel (which I would totally carry as a 20 year old)
 3. calf hair leopard flats

J.Crew did it again.

Lulu Loving

Welcome to OKC Lulu! We have had a showroom in the city for about the past 9 months, but a full fledged store front opened in Classen Curve a week and half ago! I was dying to get up the store to do a little shopping. 
Below are my recent purchases! My favorite lulu tank is the power Y tank. I have it in a mint green version, but the plum color is perfect for going into fall! 
Beside my tank I stayed pretty simple and picked out some basic black speed shorts and inspire crops. My inspire crops actually have the fun bright color waist band shown on the purple speed shorts.

I highly recommend these three products. The speed shorts are without a doubt my favorite shorts lulu makes and same with the power Y tank. I am new to the inspire crops, but I got great recommendations on them!

One of my best friends just started working at the new store so now I have an even better excuse to go! I love shopping in person instead of having to drool over my computer while I would online shop!

How can you not love lulu?

Bites of My Life

I'm baaaaackkkkk! It's been more than 3 weeks since my last post so of course I have to come back with a bites post to update you guys on my life since I've been gone! Sorority recruitment kept me busy over the past few weeks. My days were filled and left little time for blogging. I felt so disconnected.
Now that recruitment is over, school has started. Yesterday was the first day of my junior year. Like what??? A junior? Nutty I tell you, I swear I don't feel that old!
-I finally did the chop and cut 5 inches off my hair! It feels great but I am still getting used to how to style it. My go to fun bun isn't really an option with it this short. The picture was taken on move-out day of the loft. It was the best summer in our little space and we are going to miss it so much!
-My favorite taco truck showed up one night during work week! We  were cooped up all day, so tacos on the front lawn was the perfect break!
-Excuse the poor quality of the next two pictures, but I had dinner with my parents a couple weeks ago at an awesome new restaurant in Norman called Scratch. Everything is homemade and made from "scratch." I got the quinoa crab cakes and we all split a side of the pancetta mac and cheese. 
-I was so excited when I was asked to make my sugar cookies for a treat at our alumni night! I took on the task of making 120 iced and decorated cookies! I made some blue and blue tassel garland as well to help decorate!
-The best just got better. 3 weeks of hard work paid off!
-Broccoli rabe, sausage and orecchiette at the best italian restaurant in OKC! My grandmother turned 89 last friday, so italian food was in order to help celebrate!
-The most decadent apple pie I've ever had. My aunt, mom and I dug in to this as we enjoyed Oklahoma's amazing patio weather this weekend.
It's been a while but I'm back. Check back tomorrow for more on my Lululemon obsession. Lulu just opened a store in OKC. Things are about to get dangerous.
