Vintage Cupcake Company

At the beginning of the month, my book club actually met at Vintage Cupcake Co. for our discussion. It's a little girl's dream- it's like stepping inside a teapot. What does that even mean? Well, it's like... the whole place is the perfect setting for a tea party.


Groupon teamed up with VCC to offer a 50% discount today, allowing you to enjoy $10 worth of cupcakes for only 5 bucks. Great deal on a great product. So far, my favorite is the chocolate chip cookie dough cupcake because it comes topped with a COOKIE!! What could be better than a cupcake combined with a cookie? Pretty much nothing.

I know cupcakes are an out-of-control trend right now, but sometimes there's a reason for that. These cupcakes are gooooood. And it was lovely to talk books with Alissa while munching on a chocolate cupcake with cream cheese frosting this month. It was like an early Valentine to me, from me.

Grey Dollhouse heels

During November and December, I searched for the perfect grey boot. I read reviews a noted that the pair I loved didn't hold up very well to regular wear. I even went to the mall (gag!!) and tried on boots at Forever Young. They had a great pair, but in the end, I couldn't justify spending $35 on boots. BOOTS. I've become a major tight-wad and sadly put the boots back so I could keep the money in my bank account.

Fast-forward to this week. I'm at ROSS shopping for a baby shower (why shop anywhere else?). After picking up a few items that were on the mama's registry, I went over to shoes just to look. Of course, I ended up trying things on, just for fun. I even promised Aspen I wouldn't buy anything.


That promise was promptly broken when I tried on grey suede heels with a $9 price tag. I decided to cancel my plans to snatch a sandwich from Chik-Fil-A and instead bought myself the grey shoes. I still hope for grey boots someday, but for now I'm thrilled to have my grey heels.

Happy are we!

Bath & Body Works coupon

You know how much I love B&BW products. That's why I'm so happy to share this Ogden Groupon deal with you today. You can purchase $20 worth of product for only $10!! Or, buy $30 worth for $15 out of pocket (good online only).

Kev recently noticed my stash when he was looking for some "normal" lotion and he wanted to know why on earth I have so much lotion from B&BW. I told him I stocked up last year when I found out my two favorite scents were being discontinued! I reassured him they were all bought with discounts (like this one!).

Forever Sunshine is one of my new favorite fragrances, and if I hadn't already been interrogated about how much lotion I have, I'd be using this Groupon to add to my stash.



Some lovely scents might be the perfect V-day gift for yourself, don't you think?

Ogden's Borrowed Earth Emporium (BEE) offers a lot to the community; Yoga, crepes, coffee, and massages (to name a few).

And today, Groupon Ogden is offering a 57% discount on a one hour Swedish Massage at Borrowed Earth. For only $20 you can get all those kinks worked right out of your bod! If Swedish isn't your cup of tea, then for $30 you can switch to a ninety minute stone massage. I'm melting just thinking about it.

DownEast discount

DownEast Basics is having an amazing 50% off deal for this Curator Dress, TODAY ONLY for Facebook Fans.

You know what that means? It's less than $20. No special codes needed, just find them on FB and follow the link to their site. Be quick though because sizes are limited!

Free shipping at Victoria's Secret!

Until Wednesday, you can get free shipping on any order as long as you purchase a full-priced bra.

Ladies, it's SO WORTH IT.

My roommate in college worked at Vickies and I had her hook me up with the best bras I've ever owned. If I wasn't so poor now, I'd definitely get bras for my nursing boobies from VS. But alas, with the ever-evolving size of the girls these days, it would be quite a hefty investment.

Those of you who don't have that problem should certainly take Victoria's Secret up on this opportunity!

I like this so much I can almost forgive JCrew for featuring tie dye.

What is the deal with tie dye? Dip-dying items were all over August's issue of Martha Stewart Living, and when I browsed the online sale items for J.Crew they actually had tie-dye tops.

Not a fan. I didn't enjoy it at summer camp and I definitely don't enjoy it now.

However, I do love this dress featured in a variety of solid colors:

And if I had the guts to actually go near a new swimsuit this summer, I'd fancy one of these ruched varieties to assist with the tummy camouflage.

Delight in Old Navy

In my pregnancy, I've accumulated four of these foldover skirts from Old Navy. At $15 each, and with the fold that can cover my belly, it was totally worth the investment. I also plan to be able to wear them after baby comes since they fit so well under the bump.




I picked this seahores tee last week at Old Navy for $10 (in addition to my fourth foldover skirt). Anything that fits over the belly is worth it these days. And believe it or not, I purchased my first pair of skinny jeans as well. For only $15 I figured I should take the plunge.


I still need to get them hemmed, but I think it's pretty impressive that I took a risk and dared to even try them on. Who would have thought it possible to buy one's first pair of skinny jeans when 30 pounds overweight?

A huge sale still doesn't take away the sting.

I love two fragrances from Bath & Body Works = Butterfly Flower and Wild Honeysuckle. They are subtle and spring-like and fantastically light.

Of course, they are being discontinued this year (with many other favorite signature scents). Thankfully, they're on sale for $4 each. AND I even bought an eau de parfum of Wild Honeysuckle for less than $7 because they're on sale for 75% off in stores.

The sale started yesterday, so GO NOW and stock up on some of the best scents out there. Additionally, the fragrances not being discontinued are on sale with the usual awesome deals B&BW offers, like buy 2 get 1 free, or buy 3 get 2 free.

I did manage to find a new scent that may be able to fill the void that will eventually be left when I run out of Butterfly Flower and Wild Honeysuckle. I bought a $1 sample of FORever Summer and I have to admit it's refreshing and reminds me of the beach just as the name implies it should.

Not bad for an inexpensive pick-me-up.

I have a weakness.

I finally succumbed to the desire that has grown beyond my control. I just bought a swimsuit for my Pilates buddy. GAP put suits on sale for $12 and I used my $10 coupon to sweeten the deal.

Next summer my little girl is going to be ready to hit the pool with maximun diaper coverage and cute little ears to boot.

Rock-a-bye baby

I was thrilled beyond words when I found this tee for my Pilates buddy. Kev is a huge Pink Floyd fan (we've been to see the Australian Pink Floyd tribute band twice AND we went to the Pink Floyd Experience in 2008) and I thought he'd love to see his little girl in this tee when she's a older.

I'm already planning the daddy-daughter photo of them both wearing their band tees while dancing around the living room playing air guitar.

This kid is going to love us.

Coast to coast

I'm hosting a sale in my Etsy shop to make room for new merchandise (no idea yet when that's going to be unveiled, so hang in there) so be sure to check it out! Until April 30th, all merchandise will be 50% off the purchase price.

My favorite part about the sale so far is that this necklace was purchased by two lovely ladies on opposite coasts. One lucky new owner is in California, while the other is in Maine.

Good to know it's a versatile style.

Be sure to get yourself a little treat while the sale is still hot!

Wardrobe malfunction.

While in SLC for my birthday, I realized I'd made a packing mistake. I'd packed a bright red and a hot pink bra for the trip. Both of which showed through the white shirt I planned to wear on Saturday.

I covered up with a wrap, but as the weather warmed, I knew I couldn't keep the outfit on all day. GAP swooped in and saved the day with a $7.00 boyfriend tee in pale pink, and a white tank for less than $3.

Being a boy-fit tee, it easily goes over my baby bump while still giving me some shape. Truly a life-saver.

And although I'm disappointed that I was over-charged $10 for this tee (it was marked at $17.99 but I paid $27.99 and didn't notice until I got home) I'm happy that I added this button-up to my wardrobe.

At nearly six-months pregnant it's a tiny bit tight, but I know I'll fit into it after the baby comes. I've set reasonable goals for myself regarding my post-pregnancy body: I don't buy six 6 pants believeing I'll fit into them. But I will buy items slightly too small now that I know will fit when my stomach is no longer the size of a basketball.

I suppose the best alternative would be to stop buying non-maternity clothes, but at such great deals, I can't always make myself pass them up.

Birthday bling.

Picked this up for my birthday from Forever21.

I'm lucky I was able to refrain from buying three other rings in the dish.
