Gift Guide For Him


If only us girls were as easy to please when it comes to gifting as men. If your boyfriend is anything like mine, he's probably told you at least a million times now that he doesn't want you buying him anything. Silly boys, don't they understand that as girls it is in our nature to shop for them? He's probably my favorite person to shop for. Christmas is the time to buy gifts for you man that he usually wouldn't buy for himself.

You can't go wrong with a Ralph Lauren Pullover or a hoodie of the college he goes to/favorite sports team. Simple, practical and you steal them to wear for yourself, I'd say it's a win win. My boyfriend's dad got him a beer-making kit for Christmas last year and he absolutely loved it, definitely something I know I can gift every year. My boyfriend is always talking about how awesome he thinks my LifeProof case is, but never wants to spend the money to get one for himself. 

A guy can always use a nice leather wallet, load it up with gift cards from his favorite restaurant and he is sure to love it. My number one go-to gift's are the ever popular, TV series (or a subscription to Netflix if he doesn't have one) and video games. You can't go wrong with either one.  

What are some things you'll be getting your man this year?

HUGE Haul!

Hello my loves! I'm back, and back with lots to show you all! Over the past week or so, I've been doing some MAJOR shopping. If you all remember from my tweets and previous posts from last week, I picked up a gorgeous Kate Spade wallet ($100) and Michael Kors leather bracelet ($50) from TJ Maxx!

This past Saturday we went to a local mall and I ended up getting quite a few good deals! So, for the past year I have been dying for Marc Jacobs Dot perfume. It was love at first smell (I'm hilarious, I know). I finally decided to splurge on a small size and I'm so happy I did, I love it! I finally got my first Alex and Ani bangle, and it's safe to say I'm obsessed. I definitely see myself getting quite a few more in the near future! Such cute bangles that don't break your bank account! I've been going back and forth between using a Kate Spade agenda and a Lilly one. After purchasing a Kate agenda, I got cold feet and started regretting switching it up, so of course I cracked under pressure and ended up getting a Lilly one as well {Jellie's Be Jammin' in Large}. I'm a complete case whore when it comes to my phone and iPad, so I picked up new Lilly cases for both! While browsing through Dillards, I found adorable Pom-Pom shorts with an awesome price tag, only $24! I couldn't pass them up. As I was going to check out, I stumbled upon a black Michael Kors bandeau on clearance for only $20!!! I thought that was a great price, plus I've also been looking for a black top I can wear to the lake (anything else gets dirty, yay for clear blue lake water! Lol jokes). Lastly, we stopped into Target and picked up a few DVD's {Full House Season 1, The Hangover Part 3, Paranormal Activity: The Marked Ones}

Wednesday, we went to a nearby outlet mall that has a Saks Off 5th and Michael Kors. I was on the hunt for a new Rebecca Minkoff bag, and I succeeded! I found a 5-Zip Clutch for $219, and it was an extra 30% off, so I snagged a $295 bag for about $170! Score! My mom wanted to go to Michael Kors for a new purse for herself, I was looking around while she was busy with that and came across a gorgeous Rose Gold Chain watch for $150! Awesome price for an MK watch, so I had to snatch it up! I'm obsessed!

Lastly, on Thursday, my mom and a friend of hers went out to an outlet mall in PA. Naturally, I was super excited for this trip considering they have a J.Crew Factory Store (plus PA has NO tax on clothes!!). A North Face store recently opened there so I went and picked myself up a new book bag for only $65 ($90 originally). Next, I hit up J.Crew (my favorite part!! Yayyyy!). First thing I noticed when I walked in, they had Herringbone Vests!!! I about died! AND I got the last one in my size! I was so excited I found one considering they're backed up until November online. I also picked up two extremely comfy sweaters and a pair of leggings, which all came out to around $170 with my student ID! Not bad considering $110 of that was the vest alone. Next, I picked up a new Polo hat. They were on sale $14, so I couldn't pass that up. Lastly, I picked up a new pair of Nikes for only $35! Such good deals! To end the day, we had lunch at Primanti Brothers. If y'all live anywhere Pittsburgh, you have to check it out!!! Best turkey sandwich I have ever had. 

Pictures of everything below!!! Enjoy!

What's In My Bag: Ralph Lauren


Hello loves! Today is part two of my "What's In My Bag" series. I have a confession to make: when it comes to carrying purses, I prefer a small cross body over a large bag. Weird, right? A few months ago while shopping in Macy's, I came across this gorgeous Ralph Lauren bag that was on sale! So naturally, I had to have it. And I've surprisingly been using it a lot more often than I expected! Unlike most girls, I don't store my bags with everything I own. I can't stand a heavy bag, so I only carry around a few necessities. Here's what you can find  in my bag:



I jumped on the eos bandwagon earlier in the year, and I am so glad I did! This stuff works like magic, I can leave the house without it. Urban Decay's Naked Basics Palette is the perfect size to throw in your bag for when you're on the go. I almost always bring it with me! My go-to mascara is Estée Lauder Sumputous Extreme. I have a few bottles of this thanks to all of those free Lilly gifts, so I always keep one in my bag!

If you follow me on twitter (@lawfullysassy - if you don't, what are you doing with your life? Go follow me now!) you probably saw my tweet about my gorgeous new kate spade Wallet (bright spot avenue in blush) I purchased the other day. It's safe to say I'm obsessed with it. I can't go anywhere without my trusty Ray-Bans. 

Aside from my obvious iPhone, when I carry a large purse with me, I usually bring along my iPad with me (depending on where I'm going). With wifi nearly everywhere nowadays, you never know when it come in handy. And of course, I can't leave the house without my back-up Lilly Pulitzer charger.

What can be found in your favorite handbag?

Preppy Girl Tag

Hi everyone!! I hope you all had a wonderful Fourth of July! I've seen this tag on numerous blogs & YouTube Channels and I always thought it would be so much fun answering! I'm so excited to finally be able to do this fun tag now that I have my own blog! So, without further adieu, let's get it started....

What is your definition of preppy?
I'd have to say that my definition of preppy would be a very classic and timeless style. However, being "preppy" is more than just a style, it's a lifestyle.

What is your all time favorite brand?
Clothing wise, J.Crew and kate spade, accessories wise! Hands down.

What is your favorite Lilly Print?
It's a tie between Tusk in the Sun & First Impression! (I think Lobastah Roll is a soon-to-be favorite as well!!)


Who is your favorite preppy YouTuber?
SarahBelle93x, duh! 

Sperry's or Jack Rogers?
I have the hardest time breaking in Jack Rogers & I prefer Tory Burch Miller sandals over Jacks anyway. Sooo, I'll definitely have to go with Sperry's! I love mine!

Opinion on Oxfords?
I'm just going to assume this is talking about RL Oxford shirts, & I love them!

Jeans or Khakis?
Are chinos or leggings an option...? I'm not huge on either, but I'll go with jeans!

Duck Boots, Riding Boots, or Hunter Boots?
I have all three & wear them all religiously for different occasions/seasons, so it's too hard to pick a favorite! Riding boots are my go-to's in the fall, L.L Bean Boots in the winter & obviously Hunter Boots when it's raining!

Navy or Black?
Navy is every preppy girl's neutral, duh.

On a scale of 1-10, how much do you love J.Crew?
Ummm, a million???? But seriously, I'm obsessed with J.Crew!

Favorite Lilly item?
Callahan's definitely!!! They're so comfortable & add a splash of color and Lilly to a simple tshirt and shorts outfit!

Favorite Ralph Lauren item?
My Ralph Lauren Alexa Sandals! I purchased them last summer & they've easily become one of my favorite pair of sandals!













Pearls or Bows?
I've never been much of a bow wearer so I'm going to have to go with pearls. What's an outfit without a pair of trusty pearl earrings?

Thank you all for reading!! This was so much fun to do! To keep the tag going, post this in your blog & comment if you do! I'd love to read! 

xoxo
