TJMAXX & Marshalls: Your Summer Home & Style Hotspots!
It really doesn’t get much better than an awesome deal at T.J. Maxx and Marshalls; I remember even an incredible one I got on a pair of shoes…15 years ago. If you’re anything like me, which basically means you have a great eye for style and LOVE finding a deal worthy of writing home about, then chances are you’ve set foot in one of these stores and most likely bought something! I went to the Summer Soiree this past week, and was impressed with the range of product that I saw within these theme that seemed to just get cooler and cooler with every passing moment. Encouraged to shop the different categories, I absolutely fell in love with Tahari picture frames, laptop bags, outdoor rugs, and nautical-themed garments.
Everything you’d need for summer entertaining, vacationing, and lounging was there; even a grilling tool kit (I grabbed this for my Dad!), and cocktail drink mixes! I’ve attached some pics of my favorites here (above and below), and love that new items are constantly coming in, which make it an adventure every time you step inside a store.
I gravitated toward the beachy clothes and coverups, walking away with a gorgeous Michael Kors long pleated skirt with an ocean print. Plus, if you’re in the market for a bathing suit, don’t forget T.J. Maxx or Marshalls, and I’m sure while you’re there, you may just pick up some shades and a beach towel too!

Katy Perry’s Luscious Lashes Can Be Yours At Last, Thanks to Eylure! (thefind.com Guest Post)
From our friends at thefind.com:
Aside from her rainbow-hued hairstyles, cherry chapstick, and tongue-in-cheek lyrics, Katy Perry is most known in the beauty world for her thick, flirty lashes. Oftentimes over-the-top, like much of her general fashion sense, her seemingly unending supply of fake lashes have inspired beauty mavens everywhere to play up their own peepers with falsies for special occasions. Now, for those of us who have finally mastered the sometimes-messy business of lash application, we can inject even more Katy-like character into our style with the singer’s own branded line of lashes by Eylure. With 4 different styles, ranging from fairly subtle fringe to full-on theatrical, each with adorable names like “Sweetie Pie” and “Oh, Honey,” Katy Perry fans can have similarly coquettish lashes for any occasion! Plus, at under $10 a pair, these Katy-branded lashes are likely far more inexpensive than the singer’s own luxe fringe likely costs… yet just as effective!
