DOWNTOWN WITH WARBY PARKER // SPRING 2016 CIRCUS COLLECTION


Since both of us have had to wear glasses since we were young, we know just how important it is to have frames that look great on but are also going to be good quality and last for the next couple years. With that being said, we've been long time fans of Warby Parker because they always have the most stylish frames as well as great quality and customer service! When we saw their new spring 2016 collection, we knew we'd love it! We picked out 5 of our favorites that we knew you'd love just as much as we do!

\



The Kensett frames in whisky tortoise were one of our favorites since they were the most neutral and could be worn every day! These would be great for those 9 a.m. lectures when you want to look a little more put together but still comfy and cool.




We loved the  Finch frames in Bellini because of the unique color! We love a good pink, and we especially love incorporating it into fun accessories! These would be such fun frames to wear to your next planning session at your favorite coffee shop! 



The Oliver frames in maraschino were another favorite because of the bright red! These would be so fun to wear as your everyday frames since the frame is such a classic shape but the bright red gives them a unique pop of color! 





Last but not least, we loved the Dorset frames in coastal blue fade! Blue is another one of our favorite colors, and these glasses didn't disappoint! Since they are more muted and ombre, they look a little more neutral and wearable for everyday! 


Thanks so much for stopping by! We hope you love Warby Parker just as much as we do! A big thanks to Warby Parker for working with us on this post, we had so much fun putting it together!

XOXO
Angela & Amy

TASTEFUL TOTE BAGS


I don't know about anybody else, but I'm a total bag-hoarder. I have them all from small everyday bags to huge mom bags that I can carry everything I could possibly need in. Right now I'm on a total tote bag kick- I've been on the hunt for something stylish yet functional that I can carry from class to work to the gym (on the rare occasion...lol) or wherever the day takes me. So, I've rounded up some of my favorites that would be great for any occasion! Now I have to figure out how to have each one of these magically appear in my closet.... wishful thinking!

1. Barrington monogrammed tote- I love these totes, especially because you can completely customize it yourself! If I didn't just spend $200 on a textbook (#collegeprobs) then I would have loved to splurge on one of these! I love the pink and navy with the racing stripe!

2. Tory Burch "York" buckle tote- I've had my eye on this beauty for a while now! I think this bag would be perfect especially if you work in an office or have a more professional job. All the pockets make it super easy to stay organized and you can fit your laptop in the middle pouch!

3. Gigi New York tori tote- Can you sense a trend in color? I love light pink bags! I especially love this one from Gigi New York because it's such a practical bag. I could see myself not only using this to lug around my (expensive) textbooks but also as an everyday bag! Bonus: you can get it monogrammed! How perfect. 

4. Reversible blush tote- This bag is like a two-in-one since it's reversible! Plus you already know I love that blush pink color! And with it being under $50, it's perfect for almost any budget! Pssst- if you really want to be a savvy shopper this tote is on sale for $32 and comes in pink and navy!

5. Madewell transport tote- This bag is the most iconic practical tote bag- I'm pretty sure almost everybody has this in their closet. How could you not, it's adorable, timeless and would go with any style! I'm just imagining this beautiful bag filled with all my planners and pens...too perfect!

Thanks for stopping by! What are your favorite tote bags? Let me know in the comments below...you can never have to many bags!
XOXO

BRIGHT STORAGE FOR AN ORGANIZED DESK

 Hello everyone...and happy end to another week.  If you're anything like me Sunday is used to relax till around 2pm'ish then I get this extra wave of motivation to knock something off my to-do list before the new week starts.  I always try to end the week on a productive note.  One thing I've been putting off is organizing all the office supplies I've grabbed over the last few months.  I have to admit I can't walk into Target without hitting the Dollar Spot...every...single...time!  I may or may not have a pen/notebook/note card hoarding problem. Sometimes the items are so cute and for only $1-$3 I can't pass it up.  This leads to my next problem...where to store everything.  

During the holiday I stocked up on some extra Sugar Paper gift boxes so I decided to put them to good use.  


I filled the small white Sugar Paper box with all my extra pens and pencils so I have them all in one handy place. The medium sized pink Sugar Paper box is perfect for extra note cards and gift tags.  Then the large turquoise with gold dot box I snagged from Home Goods is perfect for all my extra notepads and desk accessories.




During one of the last big Tory Burch sales I bought a pair of shoes.  I just couldn't part with the super cute box and shoe bag.  I normally don't use the box to store my shoes so I decided to use the extra goodies for more storage.  I found one of the shoe bags to be perfect for my ipad and the other one perfect for holding notebooks and pens.  It's such a fun and stylish way to keep the things organized in my work bag. 





I hope this gives you some inspiration for your next organizing project.  So much more colorful and cuter then the typical clear bins I've used in the past. Check out our Pinterest boards for more ideas and inspiration.  
XOXO
Amy
