Hello Memphis Ladies!  There was such high anticipation around Memphis and the surrounding areas that we were actually getting a Nordstrom Rack! Something cool finally comes to Memphis.  Wow!  A lot of us hoped for a Nordstrom but knew that was probably a long shot.  So we must settle for this baby!  I do have to say I welcome it with open arms!  I was fortunate to get an invite to the Private Shopping Party that happened two days before it actually opened to the public.  You could register a guest or two so I brought along my friend and blogging buddy Erika McChesney of www.beautoptician.com. I met her while working at Eclectic Eye and we basically started this blogging world together.  We both have…

Well, you all might be surprised that I do shop other places besides TJ Maxx! I actually shop everywhere, I just have a tendency to like a really good deal so I shop at TJ Maxx for myself A LOT. I did take a trip recently with my sister in law to TJ Maxx and Loft.  Adrianne, my sister in law, and I have shopped for her clothing for the past 13 years, which is how long I have been married to her brother.  She is blind, yes totally blind, so I am a big help to her wardrobe choices!  I will say that even though she is blind she is very opinionated about some of the things she tries on because she determines how…

Hello again girlies!  My desire is to help women like you dress and feel better everyday of your life.  Having a great wardrobe can help bring out that confidence that is hidden deep inside you. We are all different and we should all be able to express that to the world. Since we are all different, I have a hard time telling woman they need certain things in their wardrobe without knowing what their everyday life looks like.  Your lifestyle and personality will dictate a lot of your wardrobe choices. You can have a powerful, functional wardrobe with just 15 to 20 pieces.  Whether you are a stay-at-home wife or mom or a corporate working woman, you can have a great wardrobe to suite your…

Hello Girly! I am so excited to show you some of the things I purchased at TJ Maxx already for the fall season. YAY! This is my favorite time of year to shop.  Now through September are the best times because stores will front load the season with the best stuff! I worked retail for almost 20 years and this IS the time to shop!  YES, even if you are not in the mood for fall, you do not want to miss the good stuff ladies!  I love, love, love TJ Maxx for their prices and their styles, especially if you want to maximize your budget. Did I mention that I LOVE TJ Maxx! I found some STELLAR deals on some really cute pieces that…

As fall shopping approaches, I would like to give you some tips on how to maximize your shopping experience. It made me remember a conversation I had with a friend about how to avoid returning things we purchase. We often fall in love with something in the store and get it home and hate it. You think to yourself ” Why did I buy this?”  We were trying to figure out why this happens and what we can do to prevent buying something we will regret. Then we realized this would be a great subject for a blog post! I am going to give you some tips to think about when you are shopping to help minimize those unwanted returns. I really dislike buying something…
