Fun finds #1

Hi, guys.  I miss blogging.  Also, I find myself constantly wanting to share random finds with friends with links, so I'm going to try to get back to sharing them here so there are actual links to follow.  Will it last?  Only time will tell.  :)

My favs recently:


These jeans are the ones I posted about on Instagram - the nine-inch high-rise in Hayes wash.  Seriously the best.  So, I know Madewell jeans aren't for everyone, but I love every pair I've bought so far.  If you haven't tried them, the secret is in the magic spanx like panel in the pockets.  Haha.  Mom jeans for the win. I like the fact that these new ones have a button fly and a clean hem.  I ordered the petite style this time around.  I'd say size up in petite if you want an every day fit, stay true to size if you want them to fit snugly.  Typically for regular sizing I'd stay true to size in the button fly, and size down in others.  Also, these tees (I'm wearing the white above).  Some of Madewell's tee are too see-through for me, but these ones are thicker.  They are a little boxy, so more for the front-tuck look, in my opinion.



These Rothy's loafers (wearing mocha spot in my photo up top, photo above from Rothy's site)- click here for the referral link to get $20 off your first pair!  Holy cow, so comfy.  Probably will size up a half size next time, which is not typical for me.  They are a bit tight in the toe box, but still comfy enough that I kept them!  I have heard that you need to size up some for the points.  I snagged some of the leopard prints girls' style for Eloise!


These earrings from Anthro - I have in the turquoise.  Love that the front is the post so they don't pull on your ears! So lightweight and so many fun colors!

Chewbeads are baby-safe jewelry, especially great for teething (although I'm pretty sure you'll want to wear them way after the teething stops).  Here are a few of the specifics, straight from their site : - Beads are made with 100% silicone (similar to pacifiers & nipples) - Soft on babies gums and emerging teeth - Easily cleaned with dish soap & water,

Land of Nod Giveaway!!! (CLOSED)

Giveaway is CLOSED. Giveaway, it's a giveaway!!! $50 Land of Nod Gift Card! I'm obsessed with The Land of Nod .  I'm sure this is no surprise.  As you know, a whole lot of Eloise's room came from there.  And we continue to loooove, love, love their products.  SO, just recently, they came out with some amazing and adorable new products .  I can't get over how cute the new beddings are...these would have seriously been in the running for EA had they existed then.  And the blue Jenny Lind bed is the perfect shade of aqua, all funky and polished at the same time.  In love.  And, if you happen to like poufs, too, a faux leather (and somewhat cheaper) version of one for kids (or adults).  Oh, yes, and the rugs...seriously amazing...  I need to stop.   Anyways, these sweet people at the Land of Nod have offered to give one lucky reader a 50 dollar gift card .  Yep, that's right.  I'm pretty stinking excited.  I kind of wish I could enter!  For details,

Another Chewbeads Giveaway - Open until 6/11.

YAY!   Another Chewbeads Necklace Giveaway – the Turquoise Hudson !   Giveaway will close on Monday, 6/11 at 10pm – winner will be announced by Wednesday evening. So, this go around, the necklace is a gift from me as a thank you for reading or visiting this tiny little blog.  Also, because it’s really fun to give stuff away.   So, I’ll be giving away one specific necklace, the Turquoise Hudson , since it seemed to be the overall favorite last time!   Chewbeads have actually even improved since the last giveaway - they're now lighter weight and don't snag on long hair! You all know I’m a little obsessed with them , and I still wear them, even with E at 16 months.   Actually, she was just chewing on them the other day (same day as the pic above– I swear she chews on them, I just never catch it).   And – she cries for the Charles bangles when I wear them.   She’s convinced they are hers, I assume.   So...Who can enter? Anyone – Old readers, new
