I’m not quite sure how it’s already July, but here we are.
Yesterday, Caroline and I were in the car listening to Can’t Touch This by M.C. Hammer. I would like to explain why but there really isn’t a valid reason.
She remarked, “It’s a shame M.C. Hammer went broke”. I found this to be an odd bit of trivial information for her to know since both M.C. Hammer and his financial issues occurred long before she was even born.
So I asked, “How do you know that M.C. Hammer went broke?”
She replied, “From watching the movie, White Chicks!”
Needless to say, we are doing our best to give her a rich background in sophisticated and refined pop culture.
And not one bit of this story has anything to do with the July 4th holiday except for God Bless America, the land that brought you both M.C. Hammer and White Chicks.
Here are some cute things I found this week:
1. barefoot dreams cable knit cardigan
I realize this isn’t a summer item, but I felt like you needed to know they’re on sale for $98.90. I have one of these (not the cable knit version to my dismay) and it is the softest thing ever.
Your winter self will be so glad if your summer self plans ahead and buys it one of these.
These tunics are one of my closet staples because they go with everything. They’re on sale for $26.90.
3. to make a long starry short tunic
I think this is so cute. I love a good star pattern.
This just called out to me for some reason. I like the whole look.
Loft is offering 50% off everything with the code JULY4TH at checkout. These tunic tees look so comfortable and perfect to wear year round.
This is also at Loft so 50% off everything with the code JULY4TH. I really like this lace up dress. I have been all about the dresses this summer and I can’t recommend it enough.
7. j.crew cross stitch tunic t-shirt
J.Crew Factory is also having a sale. This cute t-shirt is just $24.50.
Ok, ALERT. Anthropologie is now offering an extra 30% off all sale items with the code EVENBETTER. This top is one of my favorite things from last week and so I thought you should see it again now that it’s an additional 30% off.
I realize some of you may feel sad if you bought things last week that are now an extra 30%, but here’s how I get through times like these. I remind myself that if I had waited, there’s a good chance that item wouldn’t have been available in my size and then there would have been wailing and gnashing of teeth. Or just mild disappointment. Either way.
But, seriously. Go look at all the sale stuff because there are still good things to be found with an extra 30% off.
Have we talked about my renewed love for the Vans slip on? They are so comfortable. And I think M.C. Hammer may have worn them before he went broke. I love this particular pair, but you can also create custom ones here on the Vans website.
10. gap paisley flutter sleeve blouse
Well done with this top, Gap. I like it. And it also comes in pink. Everything at Gap is 40% off this weekend with the code JULY4 at checkout.
That’s it for today.
Happy July 4th! May your weekend be filled with hotdogs and fireworks and apple pie aplenty.
