The picture below is what I was wearing to go meet the girls!
You know I had to represent with my pink drusy necklace and my cushion cut bracelet! 😉
my black LOFT utility blouse is sold out, but there are several other colors available HERE (I also got an orange-y red one HERE!).
jeans from same maker HERE / similar pointy toe leopard flats HERE (only 3 sizes left) / you can find my fav leopard flats HERE that are fully stocked
In fact, I took off my pink quartz necklace and wore this baby home.
I thought it looked great with my black blouse, jeans, and leopard flats!
But I also have plans to wear it with plain tees all spring and summer long with both jeans and shorts. It could also look awesome with the right sundress! And you know I’ll be wearing it with my MUST HAVE denim jacket too (still fully stocked)!
Click HERE for the necklace. I just love it so much!
It also comes with turquoise beads and pink agate!
Okay, so here’s the deal about this necklace.
There are only 25 available in the blue and green for ordering today that are currently in stock.
However, they are going to let another 50 of you pre-order them. The orders will be accepted, and once inventory is re-stocked (they have already placed their order), the next 50 will also get the necklace! It will just take a little longer (think around 3-4 weeks) for the next 50 to get the necklace. But you will be guaranteed the necklace!
If you want to order the pink and turquoise combination, there are only 9 available right now. But they will let another 40 order, so you can also pre-order this one for later delivery also!
Again, click HERE for the necklace.
BECAUSE IT’S FABULOUS.
(See above picture for links for other items in outfit!)
They are both great for stacking!
(And you know THIS cushion cut bracelet is my absolute fav.)
similar watch found HERE
I’ve never seen anything like them, and I think they’re awesome!
Totally unique, super light, and very fun! You just thread the entire thing through your ear, and they hang there just like this!
Click HERE for these circle and bar earrings. Great basic earrings that can be dressed up or down.
And I’ve got some awesome news!
Amy and Amy have again passed along some special PTMT codes that will be active through the weekend!
If you spend $50, you get 15% OFF with the code PTMT15
If you spend $75, you get 20% OFF with the code PTMT20
Here’s an image from my first A.C. post.
Arrowhead earrings HERE (click HERE for onyx and HERE for a gorgeous pink )
Cushion Cut Bracelet HERE (to die for!) / Kimberly look-alike HERE
These images below are all easily shoppable (just act like it’s a word, m’kay?) if you just click on them! And remember the codes for either 15% or 20% OFF!
(Fair warning, I added these pics to my blog this morning, so I haven’t checked stock on all of these items. If they sell out, it’s a good possibility they will be getting more of that item in the next couple of weeks.)
The codes even apply to their SALE items found HERE!
And SOME of their blanket scarves (that I’ve previously highlighted) are also on sale HERE!

I’ve now mentioned my new Zella work-out gear several different times, but I’m mentioning it again today. I swear that Zella should hire me as their official spokesperson. Sure, I only started working out like 3 1/2 weeks ago :)….but I KNOW WHAT I LIKE, AND I LOVE ZELLA.
Zella, CALL ME.
My favorite pants are still THESE!
And they now have a new Capri version HERE !!!
Something about the blurry and colorful lines makes them so flattering!
Click HERE for the entire line of Zella “Live-In” Leggings (both short and long), and they come in plus size too!
I wanted a short pair for summer, because I’ve realized that I much prefer working out in pants than in shorts. I got these in x-small, and they are a little tight right now, but I think they’ll be fine in another couple of weeks.
The placement of the black line down the side makes them so flattering!
And maybe you want to check out some gear that’s NEW ON SALE!
I know many of you are sad that my grey slip on sneakers are now sold out, but I found a similar pair HERE pair yesterday. They are quite a bit more expensive, but DANG THEY ARE CUTE!
I just knew when I came home to find them online there were going to be a ton of STELLAR reviews on them, but there aren’t any reviews yet! 🙁
But OH MY WORD at the comfort level.
SO. STUPID. COMFY.
LOTS of colors available available to choose from!
Click HERE .
Emma and The Bean!
Click HERE for the darling Etsy shop Emma and The Bean where I had this print custom made.
It’s at the entrance of my closet (you’ll get to see the entire closet in March…if I can get my stuff together!).
And here’s a close-up of it! Click HERE for my exact print.
Thank you Lisa for my print!
My e-mail inbox often gets crazy (it is right now fo sho), and sometimes it takes me a little bit of time to respond to e-mails, but I really try to answer every single e-mail I receive. I always love reading the e-mail, and it makes me happy to get to interact with y’all!
Well, this next pic was sent to me by a reader via facebook last week. Thank you Paula!
She copied my PTMT recreation from HERE.
Isn’t it so fun how Pinterest tells me to, and the Pinterest Told Me To tells y’all too?!?
But if you remember back to my post just earlier this week, you can find a great jacket HERE at Old Navy (comes in khaki too)! (Still 20% off, now you just use the code SAVENOW.)
striped sweater HERE / military jacket HERE /
scarf HERE / jeans HERE / grey slip on sneakers HERE
And one of my favorite readers (Hi Kathryn!) e-mailed me about a new Anthro shirt she got that she was loving. I asked her to e-mail me a picture, and she did!
Click HERE for Kathryn’s shirt.
It has 8/8 5 Star Reviews. You should go read them because they are all STELLAR.
For size reference, she’s wearing a small. She is 5′ 8 1/2″, and if you notice, it covers her crotchal area perfectly. Such a cute and flowy (but totally flaterring) top! I love it!
Kathryn, just fyi, we all want your hair.
ANTHRO IS RUNNING THEIR FREE SHIPPING with $150 MINIMUM PURCHASE RIGHT NOW! Click HERE to shop the entire site!
And I tried on some stuff at Anthro last week that y’all might want to see.
And yes, there stuff is more expensive than lots of other stuff I post…but here and there I feel it’s definitely worth it to have a couple of really great and unique pieces!
a. HERE (for size reference, I was wearing a small )
b. HERE (for size reference, I was wearing a small)
c. HERE (for size reference, I was wearing a 4)
d. HERE (for size reference, I was wearing a small)
e. HERE (for size reference, I was wearing a small )

FAVORITE #6: Telling People When They’ve Won a Giveaway!
What could be more fun than this?!?
THE WINNER OF THE OLD NAVY $150 GIFT CARD is…..
JENNIFER MILLER
Please e-mail me at pinteresttoldmeto@yahoo.com to claim your prize Jennifer! Congrats!
I of course always had a heart for the sweet kids that I worked with.
And you wouldn’t believe the sacrifices they make.
They are constantly working with and loving on their kids.
They go to bed tired, and they wake up tired (many children with special needs
have a very hard time sleeping).
And they start it all over again the next day.
It’s truly something to witness.
But in addition to all of the sacrifices that are made for the children, in addition to all of the work…
it’s also of extreme importance to note that these precious kids bring their parents and their families SO MUCH JOY!!!
Yes, the kids are blessed by their families.
But in turn the families are also blessed by their kids.
It’s wonderful to see.
They deserve a little celebrating, that’s for sure. 🙂
Are you dying to know the specifics for the newest contest?
Well, I’m dying to tell you!
Who is joining forces with me?
LOFT, that’s who!
I’m going to be highlighting a couple of casual outfits and SEVERAL business casual outfits too!
So, start thinking of who you are going to nominate….and don’t hesitate to nominate yourself if you are one of these special mamas! We want to celebrate YOU! I will officially announce the contest and open the nominations on Monday, February 23rd! The winner will be announced Friday, February 27th!
Have a wonderful weekend everybody!
xoxo,
Sheaffer 🙂
Mix and Match Mama says
Oh my goodness! I have so much to say! First of all, your Special Mamas Giveaway is just my favorite. These women deserve so much :). Second, you always look fabulous but girlfriend, lately you've been looking extra fabulous!!! Like so good!! And third, love the Accessory Concierge jewelry…especially the thread earrings! My faves!
Erika Slaughter says
Yay for that giveaway!! And Kathryn looks so cute! Love the entire look!
paris8 says
Love you post! I am especially in love with those grey sneakers…..found a pair that Toms has brought out for spring! Have a great weekend!
Charming Lucy says
That split neck blouse has my name written all over it!! Thanks for making my life more fun and my outfits 1000 times more stylish! Susan

I ordered from Accessory Concierge the last time you talked about it, and the pink drusy necklace and cushion cut bracelet are now my favorite pieces of jewelry I own. And I don't think I'm going to be able to say no to that agate pendant. I love how bright and colorful it is. Thanks for the post!
Andrea Munding says
I love the special mom giveaway! Can't wait to see who gets it this time. Definitely my favorite giveaway. 🙂
Anonymous says
Love the sneakers you posted. What color are they? We're they true to size?
Sheaffer says
So I just went back to look at the colors, and I'm 99% sure the ones I tried on were "white", although I NEVER would have described them as white! Look at the color variance between the perforated material and the sole. I would have said they were more like a light grey I think. Neutral, but not white. And yes, true to size. And really soooooooooooooooo comfy!!!!!!

Thank you!!!
Chas @ Haute Mommy says
Hello! Where is that navy and green top from? I think it's the only thing you didn't link to and I need it. 🙂
Sheaffer says
So sorry, but that top is old! I got it from GAP, and it's probably 4 years old now! 🙁
Narci says
You are my favorite for doing that special mama giveaway! And, how cute are your readers?? Precious!
Goodbyebreadandcheese says
Do you ever check out Nordstrom Rack for Zella stuff? I was there last week (granted it was in Cleveland) and they had a ton of cute stuff!
Lisa says
Those rainbow space dyed Zella capris are going to get me through my half-marathon training this year! My fingers have been crossed they would come out in capris soon (already backordered through March, but I will have them in time for my first spring race).
Kathryn says
And just like that…I bought the necklace and two bracelets from AC. Candace had THE best idea about helping Special Mama's! I love that your blog is well rounded and not only tells me what I should (and should not where…ahem educating people to not where leggings without covering the front and the back), but also helps sweet mama's too! Happy Friday!!
Amy Kleis says
Great post girl!! Happy Friday!! If the special needs mama that wins has an ASD kiddo….we'll donate our original designed U.S.A.utism Flag from Hunter's Autism Specials!!!!
Candace says
Girl, THANK YOU for the shout out! And thank you for the sweet reminder of that AMAZING give-away and what a blast it was!! We had FUN! I can't wait to nominate some of my favorite mamas!! Thank you so much for doing this! BTW, I so love the "losing it" graphic. HYSTERICAL! Super proud of all your hard work!
Megan says
oh my goodness this post has a lot of happiness!!! I am pumped about the jewelry! so many cute pieces..I don't know what to pick! Those shoes!! OMGracious..they are presh!
Amanda Douhne says
The "nailed it" bracelet would be a perfect little gift for Easter! I'm thinking my ladies bible study needs these as a daily reminder of what our Jesus did for us as we start our bible study for Lent.
Chelsea says
I love all your outfits!! Trying on clothes to me is so much fun!! Great choices!!
I just found your link and love your blog 🙂 Happy Friday

Kristen says
Where did you get that light chambray shirt you are wearing under Favorite #1? Super cute! I do love that Anthropogie tunic of Kathryn's! Might need to make a pit stop to NP today! (don't tell my hubby)!!
Sheaffer says
Hi Kristen! It's from J Crew Factory, but it's from several years ago and last time I checked they no longer carry it! So sorry! xoxo, Sheaffer 🙂
tiffany tisen says
I love love love your blog!! Thanks to you I just ordered more stuff from Accessory Concierge! (Not sure if my husband would thank you…but at least I'll be styling in my new jewelry!).

I love your blog. I check everyday and then remember you don't post Thursdays and I am so bummed. May I ask where you got your jewelry holder?

Hi Erika! It's from HomeGoods!!!! xoxo, Sheaffer 🙂
Britt says
Target has a cute pair of pointy toe leopard flats right now too! http://m.target.com/p/women-s-sam-libby-heidi-two-piece-flats/-/A-16475775
Catie says
I bought the black Anthro shirt a few weeks ago, and I love it. I was thinking I needed to email you about it! Its nice and long, soft, and not too low or thin.
Chic Coastal Living says
Love all of your favorites! Can't wait to see who wins the mama contest. 🙂
Carly Milbert says
What a special contest! My twins were born at 29 weeks and although they aren't special needs kids we've had a lot of therapies and hurdles, and because of this I respect moms of special needs kiddos so so much for all that they do. I find it challenging to schedule therapy appointments every few weeks let alone multiple appointments per week! I wouldn't even know how to nominate this mom, but a friend of mine led me to this blog and I really think you should read it (my friend knows the mom) – her story is incredible! http://ourlittlesaint.weebly.com
DanielleAPaul says
That burlap print is SO adorable! I totally want one!!

Yay! Just scored some new jewelry from Accessory Concierge. Thanks for the discount code. Love your blog so much! It's definitely one of my "Friday Favorites"!
Mary Deckert says
Love the new AC jewelry! Can you tell us about that cute necklace you have on with your chambray shirt above?
I am ashamed to admit: I do not own a military jacket. I can't decide between the olive Tuscan and the camo print in the Caslon jacket ~ please decide for me!
http://shop.nordstrom.com/s/caslon-cotton-twill-utility-jacket-regular-petite/3825213?origin=shoppingbag
Sheaffer says
Hi Mary! The necklace I have on is also from A.C., but it is sold out right now. They do hope to get a new stock soon, and when they do, I will definitely let y'all know!
About the military jacket….if you don't one one yet, I would definitely get the olive. It will go with EVERYTHING.
xoxo,

Hi Sheaffer!!
I have a pair of gray wellie boots and am interested in getting a pair of wellie socks to go with them. Which color of socks do you think would go best with the gray boots?! Thanks!
Sheaffer says
Hi there! I have cream cable knit ones that I wear with my light grey ones all the time! xoxo, Sheaffer 🙂
