Talk Tuesday - Confessions of a Shopaholic

Image
I hope everyone had a wonderful weekend that involved plenty of BBQ, beer, and great people to enjoy it with...safely I might add. With every holiday that comes around also leads to something else...something that gets me into trouble. That is holiday shopping and sales tend to make me a shopaholic. You know how they get you, "Spend $50 get $10 off or B1G1 Free". I get sucked in because I feel like I'm getting a great deal on a buy, which for the most is true. I'm one of those people that has every store rewards card, email link, and coupon books. I sign up for email coupons and reminders. If they offer it, I can't say no. When there are sales, I feel like I'm missing out when I don't shop, lol.  It's gotten to the point, that I will buy stuff just because it's on sale...and I may not need it. If it will earn me point...I will buy it. I even sign up for online websites to earn points just for shopping online. I like the fact that I will be rewarded...

I'm back!!!!!! Hey Urban babies, have you missed me....well I have missed you. I have been so busy with trying to get myself in order, I haven't had time for you all, shame on me. I have been hitting the gym and working out but today I said I was going to update my blog no matter what. This one is going to be short and sweet, but I think you will enjoy it all the same. I want to talk about one of my favorite places to shop and that's at Kendra Scott. Kendra Scott is a famous jewelry maker from right here in Austin, TX. One day me and my husband stumbled upon her shop while on South 1st on a Saturday doing some vendor street shopping. What caught my eye was her window displays....absolutely beautiful. The shop was closed at the time, but I told my husband we had to come back the next weekend. I'm so glad I did. Shopping in her her boutique is like shopping in a candy store, except you can make custom made jewelry. Her store has so many colorful and natural stones to choo...

The first one is for E.L.F Cosmetics ( elfcosmetics.com ) They have two codes you can use, but the one I like the most gives you a 144pc eyeshadow palette for free with any $25 purchase.
