This past weekend Julie and I had the opportunity to attend the Thrive Conference in Austin, Texas. We arrived late Thursday night and woke up Friday morning so excited for what the weekend had in store. The conference began on Friday evening with a meet n great event, which meant we had some down time on Friday afternoon to do some exploring. We decided to hit South Congress Street area and were not disappointed.…
You may have heard Julie and I mention that we are heading to Austin,Texas tomorrow! We have the awesome opportunity, thanks to the most supportive husbands on the planet, to attend the Thrive Conference this weekend being held in Austin. It is a blogging conference, that to be honest, we knew nothing about 2 months ago. We first heard about it when Erin from Living in Yellow, mentioned she was speaking at it on…
My favorite holiday is quickly approaching! That's right...I am one of those rare individuals who loves Valentine's Day, and not because my husband showers me with lavish gifts or extravagant surprises. We keep it fairly simple around here and maybe that's why I love it so! I love to spend the first few days of February decorating and setting in place a few simple yet thoughtful and unexpected gestures that make those around me…
Eek! I was so excited to get this fun box in the mail as a Christmas Present from Julie. I was even more excited once I opened it! Each box contains nine full size items! Each box also includes a little magazine that highlights and explains the items in your box, which I found to be so helpful! It also includes the price of each item if you were to buy it individually. Here's…
Sisters that Shop is 1 year old! How have we been on this crazy ride for a year already? This may have been the fastest year of my life yet!! A year filled with fun, laughter, early mornings, learning, tears, confidence, self-doubt, challenges, growing, and so much more! I wouldn’t change a thing! 13 months ago I couldn’t imagine putting another “thing” on my plate, I had no idea how I could make it…
In my last blog post about Living in Yellow, we were just days away from our first "work trip" to meet Erin at the launch of her first collaboration with Gibson Look, which you can find at Nordstrom. If you missed that post you can read it HERE. That "work trip" did not disappoint! We had a great time meeting her, purchasing items from her new line, taking lots of dressing room selfies, and…
Summer is over and just in case I was thinking we could hold on a little longer, this week has made it crystal clear that is not happening! Nothing like a traveling husband, a broken AC on two of the highest days of summer, all after school activities starting, and we are still over here trying to recoup from our 4 day weekend hangover. Anybody with me? This may feel like the LONGEST short week EVER!! (more…)
Eek! We are just 3 sleeps from the highly anticipated Nordstrom Anniversary Sale! We are so excited and can't wait to bring you all the best deals on the most dreamy items for Fall and Winter! To be honest, last year we were still new to shopping Nordstrom and this whole "Anniversary Sale" thing, but we could not be more excited about navigating through this ginormous sale with all of you! We have done…
