It’s Friday, so y’all know what that means! It’s time to link up with Erika, Andrea, and Narci to let everybody know what some of my favorite things are right now!
Yesterday on Facebook, I posted up links to a plaid tunic (that is no longer in stock) and to two different sites: Groupdealz and Jane. I’ve never ordered off either site, but it looked like they had some pretty cute stuff (for SUPER cheap!), so I was hoping to get some feedback from readers! LOTS of you had ordered from these sites before and were nice enough to take the time to leave your thoughts.
If you are interested in these sites too and want to see what other readers think, click HERE.
In a nutshell, it seems that everybody is pretty dang happy with their purchases! Apparently, the big drawback is that items don’t ship until the sale closes (not sure how long typical sales last, but it seems that some only last several hours, while others last several days)….so shipping takes longer. People also said that sizing isn’t consistent, but that the site typically does a good job of giving sizing information for each piece.
Like, look at THIS DARLING TEE! I mean, how perfect for Valentine’s day!!! AND IT’S ONLY $13.99. #IKNOW
Looks like this sale will end in the middle of the night on Friday night, so hustle! 😉 There’s also a cute shamrock LOVE tee. Also $13.99!

OH MY GOODNESS! Look at the personalized distressed caps for $12.99. The camo one is calling my name.

LAST CALL FOR UGGs for $111!!!!!! Sizes are selling out, but hopefully your size is still available!
UGG CLOSET is having SERIOUS MARKDOWNS. Their classic cuff short boot is 40% OFF, and the cute little cable knit Shaina is 40% OFF too!
Our MUCH LOVED slim profile UGGs (with the tiny wedge heel!) are now 50% OFF in the tall version! The black is almost sold out, but some sizes are available in my favorite chestnut! Regularly $225, NOW ONLY $111!!!! And I cannot say enough great things about these boots!!!! I have the medium version, but my sister has this tall version. And she ADORES them. GIRLS. They have 266 5 STAR reviews. These are awesome boots. (To be honest, I never thought to turn them down like this! BUT HOW STINKIN’ CUTE! And VERSATILE!)
I wear my regular size 6 1/2s in the slim profiles, but most readers say that they size up 1/2 a size.

I’ve been hearing about THIS bad boy all over blog land for the last several weeks.
Now here’s the deal. It’s not super flattering. And normally, I don’t recommend (or wear) an article of clothing if it’s not flattering. But I’ve gotta say, I DON’T CARE. I’M WEARING THIS BABY ANYWAY.
It is soft…and snuggly…and will keep you ALL SORTS of warm. The outside is what they are calling a “wubbly fleece”, and the inside is a seriously soft t-shirt material! I’m wearing a small here. I wish it were a bit longer, but it’s so dang cozy that I’m overlooking that too. Oh, and it has pockets! #iheartpockets
OH! And it also now comes in a really fun buffalo check!
fleece pullover / jeans / my UGGs / tall version of these UGGs ON SALE
Here it is in the blush color. At first, I didn’t think I liked this color, but it grew on me…and this is the one I actually ended up keeping! I liked the contrast of the interior grey collar against the blush.

We didn’t get many pictures on Christmas because Carter was sick, but here are just a handful of pictures over the last couple of weeks. We did Christmas with my sister’s family early before they headed to Wisconsin to be with Bobby’s family for Christmas.
I went to Carter’s Christmas party at school.
Christmas morning nobody got to come over since the little guy was sick, but he still enjoyed Christmas morning…before he went back to bed for a 2 1/2 hour nap.
I call this one Have a Seat.
And you know we did lots of laying around and snuggling…
******************************************************
Each and every week I get several requests of ideas of tops to wear with leggings, so I find myself ordering them a lot. Some I keep, some I don’t.
I didn’t keep this dress for myself (because I have one similar to it from like 3 years ago that I still wear), but I thought it was a cute fit…and I loved the button detailing down the sleeves. I’m wearing a small…and I often size up in dresses..so I would say this runs on the big side. Remember to size down in the leggings. I’m almost 5’4″ and wearing the Petite Small…and I really need the Petite x-small.

Don’t forget about the Nordstrom Half Yearly sale. Soooooooooooo many amazing markdowns! Here are just a couple: Ray-bans are on sale (you just have to add them to your cart to see the sale price) and quite a few women’s pajamas have been marked 40% OFF.

And last, but certainly not least, did you catch my post yesterday with Victoria Emerson? I highlighted two GORGEOUS bracelets, and the code GIFT40 will get you 40% OFF your entire purchase! I did get some questions on how to put them on, so I filmed some little snippits last night, and I will load them on instatories in the morning! Follow me on ig HERE.
I personally own the two on the left. And I LOVE them. As you can see, the bracelets are already very fairly priced, and right now you can get 40% OFF of the already low price! Click HERE for my full review and to see my pictures.
Have a wonderful New Year’s weekend with your people! See you back here on Monday!

That wubby pullover is soooooo soft. But I left it behind in the store because IT IS DRY CLEAN ONLY. Ummmm, for a casual pullover? No way.
Sheaffer says
Oh, boo! Totally disappointed by this, but I’ll just make sure I get several wears between cleanings! xoxo, Sheaffer 🙂
Crissy Talley says
What wonderful suggestions! I had a question about my daughter who just turned 13!!! She received a Norstrom gift card for Christmas and of course she wants some clothes but I am not sure which department to shop for her. She is very think and about 5ft2in right now. We tried to look online but she has to try things on. She loves to look fashionable and modest at the same time. Any advice is helpful! Blessings!
Sheaffer says
Hi, Crissy! Hmmmmm…that’s hard. The junior’s section will definitely have jeans for her (my favorite are Articles of Society right now), but there tops are often less than modest. It’s hard to know what other brands to recommend…but it sounds like she will need to shop in petites when she can. My sister is 5’2″ and probably just a little over 100 pounds. She wears XS Petite in lots of items from Nordstrom. Hope this helps! xoxo, Sheaffer 🙂
Crissy Talley says
Thank you so very much!! Blessings on your day!!!
Laci says
I agree-my Sherpa pull over is not flattering but it’s 20 degrees in Tennessee right now so frost bite is not flattering either and I have been wearing mine too! Haha! Have a great weekend and as always thanks for making my 2017 brighter with your happy face and blog!!
Sheaffer says
Hi, Lisa! This made me lol. “Frost bite is not flattering.” hahahahaha!!! Thanks for reading and for the sweet words. xoxo, Sheaffer 🙂
Jennifer says
I have been shopping on Jane for years and love them. Every once in a while something will fit tighter than the size says but overall i’m Very pleased
Jaren says
I LOVE Jane and Groopdealz!!
Also, I just want to say that I have worn that “Thanksgiving” outfit with the burgandy cardigan, striped tee, and leggings over and over! Best outfit ever! I also bought the cute white peplum top to wear under jackets and cardigans, and I’m thinking it is one of the most useful pieces I’ve purchased in a while!!! Love your blog!!
Sheaffer says
Yay!!! And thank you so much, Jaren! Xoxo

Did those sweet dogs double in size overnight?!! That is A LOT of Labrador love!!
Regarding the snuggly pullover, another blogger on IG washed & hung it to dry it and it turned out great!
Sheaffer says
Great tip!!! Thanks, Gail!!! Xoxo
Andrea in MN says
You have family in Wisconsin? I had no idea you had family in the Midwest??? Tell us more about that! I hope you had fun in what had to have been BITTER cold for you up here!
Sheaffer says
Hi, Andrea! I don’t…my sister does. Her hubby is from there!
Andrea in MN says
Got it! Now I am ‘trackin! Happy New Year’s to you indeed! Thank you for the fun you provide for all of us readers!
Andrea in MN says
PS – Come in summer….
Mary says
I would be careful shopping on Jane. I just had a bad experience with them over the Holidays. I placed an order before Thanksgiving. It shipped a lot later than the sale stated and I only received part of the items I ordered. The seller won’t email me back and the only way to contact Jane is through their website. I may be out my $. And I probably won’t shop with them again.
Melissa says
You should wear that Madewell sweater dress every day! SO adorable!!
