I hope everyone had a magical long weekend, I know I did. I’m usually out of town for the 4th of July but with all of my recent travel all I wanted was to be home, hanging out in comfortable clothes on the waterfront in Long Island City with my puppy and boyfriend. Funny enough the party came to me since Macy’s takes over my neighborhood for the firework show. It’s pretty amazing that Meghan Trainer and Pitbull were performing at the bottom of my street.

I’m actually wearing all new purchases for this really effortless weekend look. My feet needed a break from regular flip flops. I love them but all of my pairs have no support and with my back issues and how much I walk I’ve had these Vionic Jura Slide Sandal in silver on non-stop repeat! If you look at every Instagram post where I’m full body from the past two weeks I’m wearing these. They saved me while being on the Sinful Colors Pride float for 5 hours! Having arch support is a game changer and I definitely need to build up my orthopedic shoe collection. The shirt dress is from Do + Be, I scored it at Nordstrom Rack over the weekend on clearance for $39.97! I tried to find it online for you guys but had an impossible time on the Do + Be website or searching it online. Which is too bad since I want it in every color. It has side pockets!

Giveaway: Win a $100 Marshalls Gift Card

This giveaway is now closed. Congrats to Beth Pierce on snapchat!marshalls_1_2

While traveling through Palm Springs last weekend I accepted the Marshalls blogger challenge to head to one of their stores (ironically there were 5 locations in the area) and surprise myself by trying something new. For some that could mean an accent pillow, a kitchen items to test out a new recipe, or a yoga matte to get back into shape. For me, I gave myself a style challenge to create a desert look inspired by the nature I was surrounded in for my trip to Joshua Tree for $100 or less! And let me tell you, I’m excited with the result! UGG sandals, a Cynthia Rowley top, plus a Max Jeans jacket and Jessica Simpson floral pants for under $100 total (the retail is well over $400!). I majorly scored!

Travel Smart with T.J.Maxx and Marshalls

As a Bostonian I grew up on T.J.Maxx and Marshalls (they too are Boston-born) and the funny part about being in New York is now, I rarely go to the ones in the city. However, whenever I’m home visiting the family I somehow inevitably end up at one or the other. Mainly, because my local T.J.Maxx is located in Fresh Pond, right next to Whole Foods. While my mom shops groceries, I’m next door walking the TJMaxx aisles…

It’s amazing how much retailer has changed in the past decade — for starters they now have an extensive designer section; I’ve seen everything from Prada, Ferregamo and YSL bags to Alice and Olivia, J Brand, Marc Jacobs and Missioni clothes. (I’ve even seen Chanel.)

{I spy YSL bag at Marshalls NYC}

So last week T.J.Maxx and Marshalls hosted a Summer Travel event to take my fellow writers and I on a tour of their NYC locations (which are right on top of each other on 23rd and 6th Ave). The lovely style experts and TJMaxx/Marshalls spokeswomen, Lilliana Vazquez and Pamela Pekerman walked us through retailers, pointing out some great summer style and travel essentials for the whole family (including your pets!). Oh the treasures we found! First off with Mother’s Day around the corner, you may want to pop your head in considering they have a vast assortment of giftable items and a jewelry section (at roughly 60% off retail).

We played a little Price is Right — and I won an amazing new yellow Abro bag (I guessed correctly it was priced at $129.99 — original retail was $230), while the lovely Amanda (from FashionIndie.com) won a set of Skullcandy UPROC headphones.

I for one, am about to embark on some MAJOR travels — that’s right, on Saturday I depart for Beirut and Italy! Two places I’ve never been and took my lovely hosts advice and took the opportunity to do a little shopping.

First off, I needed new luggage. My requirements were a durable, carry-on friendly suitcase that had 360 wheel spin and was colorful! While I’m not big on logos, I am big on Diane von Furstenberg and scored a bright orange DVF carry-on with a 10 year warranty! Best part, I got it for $69.99 ( it originally retails for $300!!).

Next, I needed a good over the shoulder medium-size purse that I could beat up without feeling guilty about and has a compartment for my passport. Victoire! I found this white Steve Madden bag for $39.99 (compare at $88).

My bags are packed, I’m ready to go!

Bon Voyage!

Disclaimer: PC won the Abro bag, and received a $50 gift card as part of the gift bag — the remaining balance of DVF suitcase and Steve Madden bag was paid for by PC.
