Hi fashionistas, 

Happy Monday i hope everyone had a blessed and productive weekend. Im obessed with plaid and love it so much lol and when i saw this two peice set from macys i had to grab it. 

What makes it great i can pair the vest with jeans or a skirt or wear the pants alone with a blouse or sweater. 

I paired it with a turtle neck sweater and some booties.  The hat was the added accessory. 

Hope you enjoy the look. Until next time.

Hi Fashionistas ,

Hope everyone had a great weekend , I spent mines relaxing but on saturday ,i hosted with a few friends a vision board party which was so much fun but i will tell you  more about that in another post coming this week.

Now i know you are wondering Drea what is with the topic. Being a fashion blogger for the last four years has been amazing but it can also place a dent in your closet from time to time due to you always wanting to keep up with the lastest fashions and just having it all. For me i just love fashion period  and i think working at my previous job which was in child welfare and very stressful at the time , shopping was a way to release my stress and other triggers.

Now that i am at a different environment and also want to change my style , i have been doing clothing purges. I am going through everything from clothing, bags to shoes. Most is being  donated and others i am planning to sell on my poshmark account. Now there are some items that i give to close close friends but that it is it.

I am also thinking about doing a closet sale but need to figure out exactly how that will work. I know i was told i should do a clothing swap which i think is nice but the previous ones ive been to in the past i was not impressed by lol.

So starting February 1 i am going on a no shopping spree , meaning only buying things that i need not the things that i want because i have enough at this time ( more than enough). I already have an accountability partner and im excited . I do not know how long  i will plan to do the no shop for maybe till my vacation coming up which is in July so that will be four months. I can do it no pressure. I will check in and keep everyone updated on how well i do.

So what do you ladies and gentlemen think, have you done a no  spend and if so how did it work out for you. I would love to hear your thoughts. Until next time.

HI Fashionistas,

Happy Monday. I hope everyone had an amazing weekend. Once again i am here with another post with Groupon. If you saw my previous post than you already know how much i love groupons.

This post is a sponsored post but all opinions are my own.

Living in NYC there is so much to do but it can be so expensive but with groupons there are amazing deals you can catch to enjoy the city life.

I have personally use groupon to do so many fun events such as paint and sip where you can enjoy wine and paint at the same time. This was a great event and it was affordable as well. When it comes to date night me and my husband always likes to try fun and different activities. So when i saw groupon had the paint and sip event i knew we had to try it. Now im not no artist but it was all about the fun we had and the fact we only spent $50 dollars for the both of us made it much more fun. Now without groupon we would have paid $100 a person so we saved alot.

Another fun event for only $14 is a liberty cruise for two which is great as you can see the statute of liberty and enjoy other sites as the brooklyn bridge for example. This is perfect for date night.

For the concert lovers like myself there are also great deals on shows you can see as well which is a plus since concert tickets are very pricy (trust me i know)

Overall the possibility’s are endless but with groupon you will never break the bank or your budget.

What are some events that you purchase through groupon i would love to hear your thoughts.

You can also use the site to get discount in regards to traveling as well, so this is helping you to save money as well getting what you are looking for at a great price.

You know i had to check it out for myself and i have to say i love it and this has been my go to for finding the best coupons and deals out there.

When searching these were the few sites i love that had current deals going on:

Travelocity is having a 24 hour sale which is 40 % off flights and hotels, as well as receiving $25 off your first hotel booking through them. https://www.groupon.com/coupons/stores/travelocity.com

Macy’s is having an extra 20% off summer sale items so this is the time to go shopping for that must have maxi dress, shorts and sandals. https://www.groupon.com/coupons/stores/macys.com
