Junky Craving: The Grand Tourista Bag

Combing through my Instagram feed one night, I came across one of my favorite bloggers,  Song of Style rocking this Jason Wu for St. Regis creation on her way into a St. Regis Botique Hotel. I instantly thought two things: Who designed it and How can I get one?  Luckily,  St. Regis Hotels x Jason Wu are graciously giving away to one lucky winner the coveted tote for the traveling fashionista. WAIT...THERE'S MORE!!! The Winner of the bag will also win a 5-Night Stay at a St. Regis debut Boutique Hotel. YEP!!! Crazy Town!

Rules: Simply post on Instagram a picture of what you would carry in your Grand Tourista and hashtag #GrandTourista on your photo and boom...you're entered to win. Easy Peasy!

Junky Talk: AS THE GLITTER SETTLES...

As the glittler settles and the champange glasses empty we are left with two options: Go into the new year with a new outlook and new sets of goals, or ummm....NOT!!

When it comes to the new year, I don't need a Mayan calendar or a countdown at midnight to let me know times are changing and the years are winding down. Rather than create new year's resolutions that are doomed to fail (usually by Jan 2nd), and besides we don't like to feel restricted. Instead,  here is a list of everything we will DO and check in with you all on how its going. DEAL?

Junky Obsession: J Crew Warehouse Sale

Last weekend Ashley, Reana and I traveled to Lynchburg for the J. Crew Warehouse Sale. I cant tell you how long we have been looking forward to this fantastic sale since it came to Richmond Virginia earlier this year. Needless to say,  the 2 and a half hour drive was well worth it.

Once we arrived, we were greeted with a bag to place all of our goodies in with a list of discounted prices. Boxes and boxes of j crew flates ($20.00) , heels ($30.00) and boots ($50.00-$70.00) were ahead. As I turned to my right,  there were boxes and boxes upon boxes of fabulous clothing. I was wondering how I was going to go through it all, but as they say "where there is a will there is a way".  It was time to start shopping. I saw a young girl trying on a 100% cashmere polka dot sweater that was AMAZING. So I thought to myself, how can I commit the steal. I plotted and snagged the sweater (muhaaaaa) lol. All for the love of J Crew!!!!!!!!!! Will I do it again hmmmmm YES!!!!! So after a few hours went by, we took and break to grab a bite to eat, but headed straight back to the sale for round two. They were bringing out new boxes of clothes and shoes at least every 15-20 minutes and we were there front and center. Even the workers acknowledged that we had been there ALL day. Trust me there was no other place I wanted to be!!!!!!!! So I am now keeping my fingers crossed that the next sales is only a few months away.


 Here are  a few pieces that I have added to my J. Crew collection :



                                           

    Blue & White stripped Shorts: $10.00

Polka Dot Dress: $20.00

                                                           

Cobalt Blue Blazer: $15.00
