Links I Loved This Week & Weekend Sale Codes

Happy (rainy) Friday, lovelies! It’s been nice to take advantage of cooler weather here in Miami this week! I envy my friends up North who are always Instagramming their fall boots and moto jackets… we had a bit of a taste of that earlier in the week. (There’s probably nothing I miss more about New York than being able to wear my faux fur vest…) In any case, I’m so excited for this weekend! My friends and I are having a Friendsgiving on Sunday… I’m making the turkey, believe it or not! Fingers crossed! Keep an eye on Instagram to see how it turns out. In the meantime, I’ve rounded up my fave links from around the web this week as well as sale codes, as always. (BTW… A Sparkle Factor’s 1st Birthday is on WEDNESDAY and there is a very fun surprise planned!) So make sure you stay tuned 😉

Make a Plan. My blogger boo thang, Miss Kristin Brophy from Fancy Things, did a great review of the Sugar Paper LA planners. 2015 is right around the corner, make sure you scoop one up! (I have the gold medium sized… I LOVE IT.) She’s giving a few away! Head over there to learn more.

My New Fave Earrings. T&J Designs is running a great $10 and $20 sale right now… I scooped up these earrings last night and am OBSESSED. I cannot wait for them to get here! Perfect opportunity to find little stocking stuffers or something for a gift exchange?

What’s In a Name? Stylelist did a great post on where some of fashion’s biggest names came from. From J. Crew to 3.1 Phillip Lim, if you’re interested in fashion, it’s a great little bit of trivia to know! Check out The real stories between 10 mysterious designer names.

The Cutest Trench in the Game. HEART. PRINT. TRENCH COAT. DONE. THAT IS ALL. You need it. I need it. We need it. It’s under $50.

How To Throw Friendsgiving. With my own Friendsgiving celebration on Sunday, I’m taking notes! Have you ever done one??

Loubie Love. Louboutin is now available at Nordstrom. Updating my wishlist now…

J.Crew’s Epic Gift Guide. I love, love gift guides. Especially when retailers do them. Rounding up all their best gifts makes shopping easier for us, no? J. Crew’s gift guides are awesome and event categorized by price or recipient. Love it.

Yay or Nay? Do we think I can fit into this child’s sized cape from Old Navy? It’s kind of the most awesome thing ever. And it’s PERFORMANCE FLEECE. Which means that it is both warm and comfortable. AND IT’S CUTE. I can fit into it. Right? RIGHT???
