:: FAVORITES AND FINDS ::

September 14, 2016

Today I’m sharing a few favorites of mine lately!

Both are total steal’s price wise, and both can be worn now and later, dressed up and dressed down!

I saw this swing dress and knew it would be perfect for summer and also for later in the cooler months.

I wanted to try out the deep olive color for fall and I love it.

It’s great now with sandals or layered up for fall with booties and a jacket and scarf.

These peep-toe booties are my absolute favorite, favorite purchase for fall.

They look just as good with dresses as they do with jeans.

ignore my frowning face in some of these,

I’m not mad I just didn’t think my face was in the picture 🙂

// HIGH NECK SWING DRESS //

go down a size! runs a little big

my lovely and handsome photog didn’t get any close up shots,

but seriously y’all these booties are heaven on earth.

// PEEP TOE BOOTIES //

This dress comes in several colors, too!

Being as soft as a tee shirt (literally) and having pockets, AND being a huge bargain buy,

I knew stocking up on the striped version would be worth it.

You know I love me some stripes.

// HIGH NECK SWING DRESS //

SANDALS // EARRINGS

This silk tank is the perfect staple, especially when you feel like you have nothing to wear or don’t know what the heck to put on.

You can dress it up or down, it is loose but fitted enough to define your shape, and has the higher cut in front with a bit longer in the back. LOVE. I again wanted this olive color for fall, but it comes in every color of the rainbow.

I’m excited to wear it when its cold with my leather leggings and black booties.

// SIDE SLIT TANK //

// SANDALS //

this tank comes in 10 different colors and is the perfect top for year round!

Nordstrom is now selling select J.Crew pieces which is AMAZING.

Best customer service and also the free shipping and returns make this wonderful news.

J.Crew really know how to do a ruffle!

This ruffle sleeve top and this sleeveless striped top are favorites!

There are some great classy leopard pieces for fall :

LEOPARD TIE WAIST SKIRT // SHIFT DRESS

My striped shirt with lace detail is available, but they also have it in great solids for fall.

// LACE EMBROIDERED TOP //

They also have my favorite striped flounce top – I love this piece and have worn it a ton lately

July 14, 2016

EVERYONE!!!!

It’s the most wonderful time of the year!!!!!

For those with a Nordstrom credit card or debit card,

the early access to Nordstroms big sale starts TODAY!

For all others, the sale opens up July 22 and the prices go back up on August 8th.

There are so many good booties to go around this year that it’s impossible to narrow them down. Luckily, if you’re anything like mem those get the most wear probably out of anything in the fall, so they are worth it.

And my Target pair broke just in time for me to snag some new rag + bone knock offs this year!

SHOES

ONE // TWO these R&B always go fast! // THREE // FOUR

FIVE // SIX love this pair in brown too! // SEVEN

Hunters are my favorite addition from last fall. And with the boot socks, I wore them all winter long in the snow.

I love the lace up heels too – they look so much more expensive than they are.

ONE in two colors // TWO // THREE

FOUR // FIVE in three colors

The grey sweater with the lace sleeves will be the perfect throw on and go sweater,
and I love draped sweater coats in the fall so much.

long cascading jacket // lace sweater also love this one // lace detail dress // open cashmere coat

perfect time to stock up on the designer jeans for a much better price!

AG ‘the legging’ jeans // paige skinny jeans // rag & bones jeans

ONE // TWO // THREE

There are so many more great purses, and a lot of Tory Burch still available!
This cross-body style is perfect and comes in several colors

I also love this tory burch reversible belt in two different colors

and these tory burch dillan sandal are on super sale too!

Delicate bralette’s are the perfect thing to wear with my summer tanks that plunge down a bit lower now, and then all into fall and winter under cozy sweaters.
and I can’t resist delicate gold jewelry with small studs. With chokers making a come back this simple style is my favorite way to embrace the trend.
Tory Burch’s perfume is my go-to scent. It smells amazing and I get so many compliments on it. This regular + travel size combo saves you $85!!

honeydew bralette // nadri collar necklace // TB perfume set, $210 value for $125

:: FITNESS ::
Asics are always my go-to for sneakers now (my best friend is a physical therapist and swears by them. when I tried them: no surprise, she was right; now that I’ve switched I won’t go back) and Zella’s leggings and tanks hold up so well despite constant wear and constant washing in the laundry.

OMBRE LEGGINGS W STRIPE // ZELLA TANK four colors and the cutest key-hole back

ASICS SHOES // ZELLA ZIP UP JACKET // ZELLA CROPPED LEGGINGS

They have so much more Zella on sale than I had anticipated which is great! Lots of different jackets, tanks, and leggings options to choose from.

If black or solid workout leggings is more of your style than the prints,
I also love these black cropped zella leggings for a go-to
and of course their traditional zella live in legging cropped and their zella live in ankle length

For a bit more coverage than their tanks, I love their zella tee in several colors too
Their ‘daylight’ track shorts are the perfect length and come in three colors for the sale.

I normally never look at the mens items too much but this vest popped right out.
Kip has a Gap puffer vest that he wears constantly. I love this dressier version with the leather detail for him to wear this fall!

:: quilted vest with leather detail ::

and one of my most favorite items, that isn’t part of the sale,
but snatch it before it’s gone :
my insanely amazing TRAVEL BAG!
This thing was a lifesaver for our trip to Italy last Fall.
this ALWAYS sells out in the cognac leather so fast, snatch it while you can!
I’ve had so many friends get this bag after I raved about it and they love it just as much as me. best purchase ever.

:: sole society mason travel bag ::

I woke up early to snag the BP Booties which look just like my favorite Rag&Bone pair and also the peep toe booties.
Some new workout tanks from Zella and a pair of the shorts are also items that will get heavy use.
there are so many great fall items that I’m filling up my cart more before the sizes disappear like I know they will!

Today I have a fun subscription website to share with all of you today!

If you’ve been reading for awhile, you’ll know I am not a sparkle obsessed kind of girl, but that doesn’t mean that I don’t love me some jewelry.

I have my more delicate basics that I wear every day, but on the weekends + especially for special occasions (hello wedding season!) I love to try something new.

The thing is, I don’t want to spend money on pieces that aren’t everyday pieces to me.
(oh wait, but I spend it on dresses and things that I also don’t wear everyday 😀 makes sense to me…..)

Enter Rocksbox !

I filled out a survey about what kind of jewelry – earrings, necklaces, bracelets – I like most, and then they select three items just for you.

You can also add pieces to your wishlist so they know exactly what you would love to find in your mailbox. Each box is about $200 of jewelry, so you save big bucks, and can buy pieces if you end up loving them.

They send three pieces to you, and you can wear them as much as you want for as long as you want, and when you send them back they’ll send you another box with new goodies.
As my girl Ina says, HOW EASY IS THAT!?

and even better,
you can use code tayloroshayxoxo to get one month free!

my first box has a studded bar necklace and a delicate infinity bracelet that can both be worn everyday.
and it also has gorgeous statement earrings for weekend outings.
