Come on, you know you love your denim! Denim jeans, shoes, shirts, overalls, handbags, accessories….denim is everywhere, the question is, how do you fancy it in your wardrobe?
With the Nordstrom Anniversary Sale open to everyone today, here are our top picks from the sale under $50!
Denim on denim was a popular fashion trend in the 90’s and guess what folks, it’s back! Our first concert was to see Janet Jackson’s Rhythm Nation. We puff painted our denim fanny packs to make sure we were on trend back then. If only we actually hung on to them because both fannies and denim are around every corner we turn!
It’s no secret Rina and I love our denim jackets. Denim jackets work perfect for both cooler spring days and highly air conditioned hot summer days!
How about these overalls! Back in high school I used to wear my @silverjeansco baggy overalls with one buckle undone. Now I wear them tapered and double buckled 🙂 ahhh, memories.
I love watching fashion trends recycle themselves. It brings back so many memories! I’ve been seeing a lot more bell bottoms creeping into stores….looks like I’m headed there next!
Yay! Today is PRIME DAY! A day where we get to shop at our favorite one stop shop for things that we love FOR LESS!! I have rounded up some of my MUST HAVE beauty products. So if you are a junkie for beauty products, you have come to the right place!
With over 11,000 reviews, you can’t go wrong with this foundation brush. I have not used my beauty blender (also on sale for $13.99 ) since discovering this brush. I find the way that this brush paints the foundation on is just perfect for the finish I crave. So if you use a foundation brush for your make up, scoop this up!
Unless you live under a rock, you have undoubtedly seen this brush all over social media. If you have hair that is chin length or longer, this brush can bring life to it within minutes! Combine it with my favorite Briogeo Volumizer and you are good to go!
This top rated masacara now comes in an adorable set (mascara + primer) that is perfect to keep or to give as a gift! I know Sonia and I use mascara every single day, so if you do too, this deal is for you!
I have two daughters and starting off each and every day with hair care is a PAIN! Ever since discovering these brushes, there is less fuss in the mornings. Happy kids = happy mom right? I recommend these ten out of ten times. It is also perfect for throwing into your beach bag before your next vacay!
I wear this with Indian clothes every single time, and each time I get so many compliments! This glitter and glow stick does not crease and makes quite the statement! Layer it over any eyeshadow color you want, you will love it!
Ladies, if you don’t keep this handy tweezer in your car for last minute touch ups, you are missing out! I have grabbed for my tweezers hundreds of times before running out of the car to pluck a stray eyebrow hair. This angled tweezer gets it every time ..THE FIRST TIME. You are welcome!
For those of you who are new to contouring or worried about going overboard, a powdered bronzer is a great place to start! Run this lightly under your cheekbones for an angular look that is slimming!
I use these brushes DAILY for contouring, they are soft and make the perfect line every time. The smaller ones are good for nose contouring and the wider ones work well for the forehead and cheekbones. Combine this with the Benefit bronzer and you are good to go!
If it is time to replenish your hair products at home, this is a good time to do it. You simply cannot beat the price of this set!
Hopefully you found some of these items to be useful additions to the products you have at home. Prime Day is always an exciting time to scoop up some new goodies for less! Also be sure to stop by our Amazon Store to see what is in our cart!!
When Sonia and I started the blog, we had committed to creating content regularly, engaging with you all often, and also to keep learning. We have attended conferences in the past, but this past year we have really amped up our affiliate game (see our post on How Blogger Make Money here). We are starting to build relationships with brands that we shop often and truly love. Now was the time for us to understand what being a true brand ambassador means.
When we learned that Think Tank was happening in Chicago this summer we had to check it out. After two days of networking and learning, we want to share what we learned.
Brands Love Bloggers
This was a relief. We met with so many brands that all agree that they are JUST NOW starting to really dig into using bloggers to do their advertising. As publishers, bloggers work hard to create content and share it in a meaningful way. It felt good to hear that brands find value in what we do.
Everyone is a Winner
Brands see usage of affiliate links as a win for them and for the publishers. Bloggers can negotiate commissions with brands (via affiliate managers) that they are looking for a long term relationship with which makes the collaboration mutually beneficial. The number one way to get registered as an affiliate is via Share A Sale. On that platform you can apply to thousands of brands’ affiliate platforms at one time. If you want to know more about this comment below and we will get in touch.
Bloggers Can Really
Cash In
As I mentioned above, once you are an approved affiliate for a particular brand and have developed a track record supporting them, you can negotiate for higher commissions. This makes sharing what you love so much more fun! You can also negotiate how you prefer to be paid out; CPA (cost per acquisition), flat fee, hybrid models, and more.
Among affiliates, bloggers make up the largest group. So this means that if we support each other and support people that truly inspire us to shop, it works for everyone. If you would like to know more, let me know and I would be happy to share.
From brands to bloggers, this one summer trend is one everyone’s mind! The white platform is on everything from sneakers to sandals. The chicks have been rocking them too! We have rounded up this seasons ‘must have’ list for you and under $99!
