Bloomingdale's

I. Love. BLOOMINGDALE'S! I had always heard about Bloomngdale's, normally in the same conversation as such stores as Nordstrom, Saks, etc. But I have never personally shoped at Bloomingdales, well, maybe once in my 15 years. This Christmas my Moma wanted a bubble gum pink (it's not as bad looking as it is described) Large Longchamp Le Plaige. I check on Nordstrom, Bergdorf Goodman's, Neiman Marcus, and every store that sold Longchamp's. The only store that had the color that my Moma wanted was Bloomingdale's. I guess Bloomingdale's saved by butt this Christmas. 

There are so many great brands that Bloomingdale's sells! The ones that none of the stores near me sell, so it is my favorite place just to look and ogle… and maybe drool a little… 

Rouge Allure Gloss // Le Vernis Nail Colour

Chanel
One thing that can always brighten by day is anything Chanel. Chanel lip gloss, nail polish, blush, anything Chanel. At least they have my favorites of Chanel, their blush and lipstick/lip gloss. I have started to fall in love with Chanel nail polish, the colors are so pure and just perfect!

Reva Ballet Flats // York Buckle Tote

Tory Burch 

Oh, how I love Tory Burch, and oh how hard it is to find… It is so nice to finally find a website that just gives me the products that I want to look at with out beating around the bush.

Vara Pumps // Ginny Large Shoulder Bag

Salvatore Ferragamo 

Bows, the one word to describe the fabulousness of Salvatore Ferragamo! They have bows on ballet flats, low heel pumps, even higher pumps, and purses. What more can you ask for from a brand?! 

Gallaway Tote // Shawl Collar Cardigan

Ralph Lauren

Glossy Stain Couture Even Collection // Touche Eclat & Mascara Effect

Yves Saint Laurent/Saint Laurent

I had always heard about Yves Saint Laurent, but honestly I never gave it another thought (beside trying to pronounce "Yves"). After doing some research, i fell in love with YSL! I like their lip gloss stain just as much as I like Chanel's, which is defiantly saying something.

Backpack // Expandable Travel Duffle Tote

Longchamp

I think that a single word can cover my feelings towards Longchamp. LOVE. Longchamp's are always quality and versatile products that will last forever and never go out of style.

Another great part about Bloomingdale's is their Loyalist program, there are no gimmicks, or credit cards to get it. You just sign up and get points for how much you spend (and double points on cosmetics!). If you buy a $25 product, you will get 25 points to your Loyalist account. Easy as that.

What is your favorite store? Nordstrom, Bloomingdale's, Neiman Marcus, or Bergdorf Goodman? Thank you for reading and have a preptastic day!

The Perfect Pair of Jeans

So everyone has that one pair of jeans that is perfect. They are perfect because they fit well, they make you butt look supper good, and they go with everything. Well coming from a person who can only wear jeans to school on Fridays, I find myself planning out what I can wear all week in my head just so I can come to a perfect outfit with my jeans on Friday. You must be thinking, "Why can she only wear jeans on Fridays?" Well it is called a prep school with dress code. I can also not wear jeans except on Friday and ripped jeans, or tie dye at all.

Lets get back on track shall we. My perfect pair of jeans comes from Land's End's Canvas line of all places.

Women's Pin Straight Denim Indigo Pants

I love these jeans because they fit well, they go with everything, they make my butt look good, and they are skinny without being supper skinny. By my last point I mean it's not a struggle to get them on, but they are still slightly form fitting with out showing every single imperfection. I did have to take my pair to the dry cleaners and have them hemmed and to make the legs a little more skinny, but the waist and everything else were perfect. These are actually my second pair of these jeans, the first pair I got four years ago and I wore them to the point that they were falling apart.

So tell me about your favorite pair of jeans? Why do you like them? Do you have a special connection to them? Thank you for reading and have a preptastic day!

This Weekend . . .

I had a long long weekend. I was shopping, and having a great time reading. I finished a whole 300 page book this weekend. My Daddy took me to the J.Crew Factory Store and I had a ball, but I will tell you more about that odyssey in tomorrows post, but today I want to tell y'all about one my weekend and why it was a long, long weekend.

This weekend my school had what they call their Fall Break. This mean we have Friday, Saturday, Sunday, and Monday off from school. The teachers didn't have Friday off because they have to work on interims and write comments. On Friday, I woke up at 11:50 and had breakfast or lunch, I don't know what you would call it at 12 pm. The one productive thing I did before 4:00 was taking a shower. When my mom came home from work, she took me out to eat and took me to our Barnes & Nobles store in town.

At Barnes & Nobles I bought two books: Prep: A Novel by Curtis Sittenfeld, which I told you all about in my Must Add Preppy Books to Your Fall Reading List: Part 2, and another book that I had never heard of and picked up after reading the back, Prep School Confidential by Kara Taylor.  I started reading Prep School Confidential on Friday night, read a hundred pages, read another hundred on Saturday, and finished the book on Sunday. I didn't even have the book a full 48 hours and I finished it... I think I am going to do a review on Prep School Confidential either tonight or tomorrow night. So be on the look out.

On Saturday my Moma had to go to a meeting that was 3 hours away, but was near a J.Crew Factory Store. So my father being the best Daddy in the world offered to drive my Moma and I down and take me to J.Crew. My father has the patients of a saint!!

Sunday, I got a hair cut and saw the new movie with Sandra Bullock and George Clooney, Gravity. Now that was a movie that I was not ready for. I sat and clawed at my Daddy arm the whole movie and asked him what happened every five minutes. You really must love me Daddy.

Monday, I went to a wreath laying in honor of Christopher Columbus. That was fun. Again my Moma, Daddy and I went up for the day and had a great family bonding time.

All in all I had a very restful and enjoyable long weekend. Thank you all for reading and be watching for that review of Prep School Confidential! Have a great day!
