Take a Walk on the WIld Side

   
     I may have lots of shopping secrets but one thing that's no secret is my obsession with my puppy kid! While we may never know what type of animal I am, we're about to have lots of fun DNA results for our dog, Cross. Of course, we had to document our walk to the mailbox to send off his swab! We're eagerly anticipating the results so I wanted to share the Embark Kit that I received as a Christmas gift from family, in case anyone else is obsessed with their fur children as me!





The extensive results will feature breed identification, genetic ancestry, over 165 genetic health tests and even a relative finder! You simply activate your personalized code, swab your pup's mouth & send back in the postage paid mailer! Kits are available on Amazon (direct link) with prime shipping.

Snow Day Snow Yay


 
   
     There's nothing like a fresh snowfall to bring out your child-like spirit! Even better yet, if you have a new puffer & scarf waiting for a perfect winter wonderland. I finally put 2 of my favorite after Christmas sale purchases to good use this week!


  • First up is the Bernardo ruffled packable puffer. The ruffle detail immediately caught my eye along with the rose gold hardware & adjustable bow details on the sleeves. I sized up in this coat & typically have to go larger in packable puffer styles. This coat goes on sale & off sale quite frequently.



  • Next up is the hugely oversized Betsey scarf. This scarf is more like a wrap and 100% holds true to "blanket" scarf style. It cozy soft and worth every bit of it's sale price of $21!

Faux Fur Fabulous

     I'm a stalker...a major sale stalker! This faux fur cardi by Free People has been on my wish list for weeks. Now there's a fine line between deal of the century & the dreaded sold out! When do you make that final checkout click? It's a tough decision! Sometimes the price drops for an even deeper discount & sometimes you miss out! This cardi in my opinion is still a splurge but oh so worth it! It's in stock status is sold out with some major retailers & shrinking away inventory in every color! This cardigan is faux fur perfection and is very heavy, in a good way! While I have justified this purchase, I'm also sharing some much more reasonably priced & similar options! Happy shopping!

Free People Faux Fur Cardigan Original: $148 Now: $88
A few more color options available on the Free People site in limited sizes.

Barefoot Dreams Cozy Chic Cardigan Original: $134 Now: $67

Our favorite part is the pet friendly room options! Book through 2/28/18 with Code: WINTER18 online or by phone.
