I love pictures. I think they hold stories, and are such a great way of capturing and remembering a moment in time. One day while on a walk with my grandfather, he got ahead and I snapped the below photo of him. When I showed it to my family, everyone said the photo had to be printed!
Rather than printing a traditional 8 x 10 and putting it into a frame, we got a little creative and decided to send the image off to White Wall. Sending the image to them was so simple that even my (not-so-tech-savvy) grandmother could do it! Upon browsing their website, we decided the best way for us to display this picture was to have it blown up and put on a canvas! First, you upload your picture, then you select what kind of canvas you want, the canvas size, and whether or not you want a frame. We ended up choosing the canvas on stretcher, and opted to not include the frame. There are SO many different canvases to choose from, as well as different types of frames and different colors for the frames, that the possibilities are truly endless. If you choose to upload a color photo, the picture will look that much more radiant with the company’s 8 color pigment printing. The canvas was the perfect fit for what we were looking for, but I also really liked the picture books that they sell online. I think a picture book makes a wonderful gift for anyone, and it can also be a great way to display old wedding or special occasion pictures you may have.
We received the canvas in the mail from White Wall with no issue, and absolutely loved the finished product. There was something about putting the image on the canvas that really did it justice, as opposed to having it printed as a standard framed photo. The image wraps around the edges of the canvas, giving it a clean and sleek look. It adds the perfect finishing touch to the hallway in my home where we hung it, and we couldn’t be happier with our decision. If you’re in need of a great gift that’s anything but ordinary, these canvases are a great way to go. We get so many compliments on our new work of art from friends and family that I’ve already had aunts asking if we could help them order one of their own. I can’t stress it enough: you can’t go wrong with this buy! Go ahead and check out White Wall’s selection for yourself – I promise it’ll change how you display your pictures from now on. Still not convinced? Use our White Wall Promo Code for 20% off your order, and enjoy some savings with your new works of art!
From one Gal Pal to another… there’s nothing I love more than shopping, especially when it comes to shopping for a dress. As a lover of all things dresses, I can tell you that there’s one style every woman should own that she can never go wrong wearing, and that’s the Little Black Dress! Personally, I think there’s no such thing as too many LBDs, which is why I own more than one. If you’re struggling with where to start, consider one of my secret weapons, LightInTheBox.com! This website has a huge variety of different products – so many, that if I allow myself to spend too much time on the site, I could easily max out my credit card.
Upon browsing the site, you’ll find a dress for just about every occasion you think of, from casual to formal. The cute cocktail dress above from Light In The Box is the perfect LBD for your next fancy occasion, and at just $50, the dress is a steal! This dress is appropriate enough to be worn to the office, and can also be transformed for a night time look that’s perfect for a special date or a couple of cocktails with your girlfriends. I love the white color blocking that pokes out from the pleats, as well as the seam running along the waist, which is sure to define the waistline and accentuate your shape.
What really caught my eye about this dress is that it’s made to order, so it will definitely be a perfect fit. There’s even a spot on the website with instructions on how to measure yourself, and what measurements they’re looking for to make the dress of your choosing. When I wear black dresses, I love to pair them with chunky bracelets, and a cute necklace or scarf. I’ve included a picture above of a statement necklace with pearls that would go perfectly with this dress. To be honest, I think pearls and the little black dress go hand in hand – you can never go wrong with a few pearls and your favorite LBD! If you aren’t totally into jewelry, or aren’t in the mood to wear anything too big and flashy, I also love paring a black dress with fun statement shoes to make the look pop and add a personal twist to this otherwise classic black dress. The stiletto pictured above has a metallic gold tip, which is a great way to add a little edge to the look. Light In The Box has this shoe with many different colored tip options, any of which would pair fabulously with a black dress!
All three of these items are available now at LightinTheBox.com, and are great for work, a night out, or even some of those holiday parties coming up. What do you like to pair with your LBD? No matter your answer, you’re sure to find it at LightInTheBox.com, and you can do so with $20 off $170 orders using our exclusive promo code!
It’s no surprise that your little munchkins are always growing, and with the seasons changing, that probably means they need some new winter boots! Stumped on where to start? Let KidShoes.com help you pick out a shoe that is just as adorable as your little ones are.
I know what you’re thinking: your child’s shoe size can sometimes vary from one shoe store to the next, so how could you possibly get lucky with finding the right size from an online source? The answer is simple – KidsShoes.com has developed an app for the iPad that measures your child’s foot, and sends you their shoes size. No iPad? Not to worry, they’ve created a printable version that delivers the same shoe results!
I’ve looked at this website several times, and I am absolutely loving these adorable Pia Lillian black riding boots. I wish they came in my size, because I would be sure to put in an order for myself! They are a little higher than the average riding boot, and they’ll be sure to give any little girl the tools to be the most confident and stylish girl in her class! This boot is durable and made to last, so they’ll withstand the running around and constant on-the-go lifestyle of a little girl for more than just one season. What’s more, this boot is on SALE! They’re available from toddler size 11 all the way up to a youth 5, so you’d better snatch these boots up before the other little girls and their moms find out about this deal.
For the little man in your life, I’m really liking the Tommy Hilfiger ‘Charles Duck Boot’. You can never go wrong with a duck boot, and these are no exception! These boots have a grip on the bottom, so when he’s running around outside on the ice, you won’t have to worry as much about him slipping around because of the traction these boots provide. These super thick boots are sure to keep his little toes nice and warm, whether he’s on his way to school or monkeying around outdoors. I also love a boot that comes up a little higher on the ankles so there’s still that extra protection around the ankle whether his pants are tucked in or not. With these boots, you’ll be happy knowing every inch from his toes up to his ankle are kept dry and warm. They’re available in youth sizes 13-5, and they’re Tommy Hilfiger brand, so you know you’re getting great quality for a superb price!
Go ahead, mom, snag the shoes they’re going to love without worrying about breaking the bank – don’t forget to save with 15% off exclusive KidsShoes.com styles using our promo code!
This year has been filled with various moves for me. I helped my mom move out of the house I grew up in and into a condo, I moved into a small apartment in New York, I helped a few friends move into college dorms, and others into their very first homes. One thing all these moves had in common? Finding the most innovative way to utilize every inch of space! I’m all about organization and labeling, so storage bins and crates are absolute necessities that I love to use in my own home. If you are also going through a move this year and need ways to save space or create more storage in your home or office, then you need to head over to Shelving.com because they are the organization/space creating experts!
I’m starting to notice that the area where I am lacking the most space in my tiny apartment is the kitchen. With the holidays approaching, I’ve already started making various pies and holiday dishes, but I am lacking the counter space to make all this food at once. While browsing the website looking for clever ways to create a pantry for my mom’s new condo, I came across a kitchen cart that folds up. My first thought was, “sorry mom, but I need this for myself!!” There are shelves on the cart to hold all the various ingredients you may need, while the wheels allow it to be moved easily from one side of the kitchen to another. My absolute favorite thing about it is that it conveniently folds up and can be hidden out of sight when not in use. Don’t worry about mom, I also found a baker’s shelf on Shelving.com that I think will act as a great pantry for her new kitchen – it even has a butcher’s block top and storage for her favorite wines!
Regardless of your storage situation, Shelving.com can offer a helping hand in creating and organizing the space in your home or office. They also sell some awesome wire shelves that are perfect for storage in your garage since they can hold so many different things, like all those holiday decorations. No more searching high and low when it comes time to decorate, as these shelves make it easy to stay organized and keep your essentials accessible. They are heavy duty, so they are made to last, and will help make your garage a functional space in your house. Don’t just take my word for it; have a look around the website for yourself, and enjoy some extra savings on your order with our 10% Shelving.com promo code!
Happy Shopping! 
With the holiday season quickly approaching, I’ve already started creating a mental list of all the people I need to pick up gifts for. Lucky for me (and anyone who can relate to my situation), Rebecca Minkoff has just put out their 2016 Holiday Gift Guides! Their awesome annual guide has been separated into 2 helpful categories: gifts under $50, and gifts under $100. I’ve already started peeking through both, and there is no shortage of stylish finds. Although you’ll find mostly accessories here, you’ll definitely be able to cross a few names off your holiday shopping list with the help of this guide.
From the under $50 section, I personally love the ‘Slide Cases’ for the iPhone 7. I can already see this being a great buy for the holidays, as the newly released iPhone 7 is sure to be a popular gift and will need a new case for protection! Even if your friends aren’t getting the 7 for the holidays, a few of my friends were lucky enough to grab one as soon as the phone came out, and I know everyone loves getting a new case for their phone. This case is so stylish, and it comes in multiple colors that even the pickiest of gift recipients is bound to love! My two favorite colors were the Nude and Deep Red, both detailed in gold hardware around the sides. I think this case has a sleek professional look to it, while still being super stylish.
Moving on to the under $100 section, I saw quite a few sparkly items. Anyone who knows me knows I’m a sucker for sparkles, so I of course love gifting anything with sparkles… Because let’s be real, a little sparkle never hurts! I think the ‘Molly Metro Wallet’ makes a great gift for any girl on the go, and is even the perfect size for a stocking stuffer. Does anyone else have a hard time thinking of cute little gifts to put in stockings, or is it just me?
This mini wallet is great because it fits all the essentials, including a few credit cards and your ID. I love the idea of mini wallets, especially if you live some place like NYC and rely on public transportation, because your metro card fits nice and snug so it’s easy to find in your bag. These wallets are also great if you just aren’t in the mood for carrying around a big bag for a night out! I like how the glitter on this wallet isn’t just black; they’ve added pops of color with the blue and purple hues that make this wallet a sparkly stunner. I also love that they embellished this style with a zipper that emphasizes the flap on the wallet – a very cool and edgy touch. I think I may even be adding this wallet to my own Christmas list! If you’re looking to gift something a bit larger than the wallet, Rebecca Minkoff’s ‘Leo Clutch’ would be a great pick. This clutch comes in a solid black glitter design, and makes a great gift for the holidays because it can be worn at those New Year’s Eve parties where glitter is ALWAYS welcome!
There you have it: three small, but super cute accessories that will be sure to make anyone receiving them jolly! Hopefully these ideas have allowed you to cross some names off your gift giving lists, but if not, there are also many more ideas in the under $100 gift guide & under $50 gift guide at RebeccaMinkoff.com worth checking out for yourself!
