- Since finally trying high waisted jeans, I can't get enough of them - I wear them every time I get to wear real clothes! The color of this pair from Hudson is beautiful - it's like a mix between blue and black denim, which means they are the perfect way to dress up denim. Love!
- I know it's July, but winter is coming (GoT, you ready?!). I really want to try Blondo's waterproof booties - I love that they are still suede but waterproof. I don't know what magic does that, but I'm here for it.
- Zella's leggings are my absolute favorite. They are so comfortable, keep everything tucked in, and really last a long time (I've had my current pair for three years and they still look basically brand new). They have a really cute pair that is cropped with a few pieces of mesh that I have my eye on during the Nordstrom sale!
on the internet //
- I've been seeing more and more of Rothy's across the internet, so I was excited to read Adriele's review on them. The pair in the last picture of the most are so freaking cute.
- I love when people share what's in their medicine cabinets (probably because we don't have one in our bathroom so I'm always jealous of the fact that people have all their products within an arms reach!).
- I know I'm not the only one who comes back from a vacation feeling a bit puffy and "ready to be good again", so it was really nice to read Nicole's thoughts on being body positive while on vacation.

- on the blog: nothing this week! sorry guys - I'm hoping to get a bit better as I get used to this new life.
- on the instagram: making the most out of those saturdays (jeans + top)
- on the twitter: so so happy about this!
notable sales //
- Nordstrom sale, the inexpensive list:
- I'm ordering BP's silk cami - it will be perfect to wear under a blazer or cardigan on a date night!
- I've been wearing Natori's "rose" bra for a few months now, and really like it. I'm going to order another (since they are like $30 cheaper right now!), as well as try on this fuller coverage version.
- This simple laced yoke top is so beautiful - it would look amazing alone with skinny jeans, or under a blazer for work!
- Nordstrom sale, the expensive:
- If there was ever a time to buy a new Burberry jacket, it'd be during a sale that made a new jacket $300 less than the regular price!
- The one purse that really caught my eye was Tory Burch's sleek tote bag. It's just such a classic and beautiful bag!
- If you've had your eye on some Hunter boots, now would be a great time to get a pair for such a steep discount.
- Shopbop sales picks: I think English Factory regularly has the cutest (and least expensive) items that I'm excited about, tons of cute Tory Burch accessories (that swim cover up!), and Paige jeans (my favorite) now on sale
at home //
- Hiiiii! Sorry about the radio silence this week. I had big plans to have a few posts ready for the week, and then reading and prepping for the week, and actually spending time with CR and the dogs took precedence. I know you guys don't notice when I don't post, but I don't want to just come on here once a week and link dump and walk away.
- Anyway, the week was really good! A few really long days, but honestly, as long as I'm able to eat a few meals while there, it is really fun to finally be doing the work - really, that's the biggest difference between being a med student and an intern. You still don't know much and are probably more of a hinderance than anything, but at least you can put in orders haha
- Lots of fun things happened this weekend though! CR finally got a new car! It's been a slow three year down hill battle with the car - it didn't have heat for two winters, we wouldn't drive it on the highways or more than a half an hour away from home, and I have had to come jump or get his car towed probably at least a dozen times. So now with a regular paycheck, and real responsiblities to show up to work, he made the big step and got a car he loves. I'm so excited for him, and for me, since my poor little car now gets a break from being our main car (but in exciting news in that department, I was able to pay it off yesterday, a whole year ahead of schedule. She's all mine!!!).
