When I was trying to finish up my post for today last night, it was moving slowly. Like stupid slow.
I was fed up.
And I was in FIX IT mode.
I had to finish my post!
But then something happened.
The little fella grabbed my hand after we brushed his teeth and said, and I quote,
“I want to snuggle you and watch Tom and Jerry.”…
So BY GOLLY that’s what we did.
Suddenly I didn’t care that my post for today wasn’t done.
We snuggled, he held my hand and told me he loved me at least 5 times just because, and he had the best little giggles EVER. He thinks Tom is hilarious. 🙂
I love those sweet little moments that just sneak up on you.
So, we fell asleep snuggling, and then I got up early this morning to finish cranking out the post.
But the computer was STILL slow.
Like it wouldn’t even load blog pages.
I thought my computer was toast.
I shut my computer off, turned the router off and then back on a couple of times, and said a prayer.
And now….It’s WORKING! WOOHOO!
Still, today’s post is a little strange.
I never finished the post I had set for Friday (you will see bits and pieces of it
over the next couple of weeks)
I have a handful of new things at the top of today’s post, and then the bottom of the post is Thursday’s post. A couple of new things for your weekend, and then a review of some AWESOME sales that are ending soon.
First up…some FANTASTIC news!
THE BRACELET IS BACK IN STOCK at Milk and Honey!
Some of you saw me post it on facebook yesterday, but for those of you that missed it, listen up.
There’s only 16 left.
ONLY SIXTEEN.
It’s a race against the clock people!
Click HERE
for the crystal and gold bracelet that is FOR SURE my favorite bracelet
that I own right now! The bracelet is so so so so so so so so so so
pretty. Really. SO PRETTY. It’s sparkly and looks great stacked with
watches and bracelets. I just love it so much!
And they extended the code! From now until tonight

It’s no longer appearing as a Santa Alert, because it’s not guaranteed
to arrive in time for Christmas. They will ship orders out today, but
there is no way of knowing
that I’ve elevated your heart rate BECAUSE THE BRACELET,
OH MY HEAVENS THE
BRACELET…
of course it has already sold out by the time you read this post, and I
whipped you into a hysteria for nothing. If that’s the case. Sorry.)
And after all of that excitement, I would now like to bring you an important announcement.
You know it’s important because I put asterisks around it and made it large font.
😉
***IMPORTANT ANNOUNCEMENT***
you follow me on instagram (find me @pinteresttoldmeto), then you’ve
probably noticed that some of my posts have some new hashtags and addresses on
them.
I’ve still got a couple of more new things for you today!

And
just because…..thought you ladies might want to know that I’m
expecting these next 2 little beauties to arrive this weekend.
1) THIS sweater that I ordered weeks and week ago.
It never arrived, so I called Nordstrom a couple of days ago and it seems as if it got lost in the mail.
Well, it’s finally on it’s way to me.
Click HERE for the black tunic.
2) THIS sweater from Goodnight Macaroon!
I featured it last Friday, but didn’t order it for myself, and then I couldn’t get it out of my head.
Click HERE for the grey and red plaid sweater that is now on it’s way to
come and live with me.
COME TO MAMA.
I have plans to wear it with my skinny jeans (HERE) and cognac wedge boots (HERE). I will also wear it with my clean cuffed jeans (HERE) and my TOMS wedge booties (HERE).
I really REALLY really love this look.
really
I cannot wait to get it!!!
And Olivia inspired me in the picture.
It looks like she is wearing Nike’s, but she inspired me to get either THESE or THESE.
I loved the sneakers look with the sweater, and I think I’ll be able to wear them with lots of different tops for a cool and casual look!
And if you are still needing some presents, maybe you should visit my Santa Alerts page!

BELOW IS THURSDAY’S POST!
LOTS and LOTS of FABULOUS STUFF ON SALE!!!!!!
Okay Ladies!
It’s now the 14th Day of Christmas.
I’ve taken a nap and sobered up (only kidding, ha!), and I’m ready to get going again!
It’s
time to deck the halls. sing FA LA LA LA LA at the top of my lungs,
thank God for all of the blessings in my life, and be thankful for the
birth of Jesus!
Before I start today’s post, I want to say a HUGE

You girls and all of your sweet SWEET comments over
the last couple of days have made my heart so full. I cannot tell you
how much it means to me to hear that Pinterest Told Me To is bringing a smile to your day and helping you in any way!
You ladies are MY PEEPS,
and I love this little corner of the blog universe that WE have created together!
Thank you for reading.
Thank you for commenting.
Thank you for telling your friends and family.
And THANK YOU for just being sweet.
I appreciate you all so SO much!
YOU ladies are what makes Pinterest Told Me To what it is.
Okay, enough of the mushy stuff :), I have a super fun post for today!
I’ve
been getting a lot of e-mail from you ladies telling me different
things that I had talked about in the past were now on sale.
I went back through my posts over the last couple of months, clicked on
almost all of my links, and compiled a list of things that I’ve
previously introduced you to
THAT ARE NOW ON SALE.
So, of course I called Andrea , we had a quick little brainstorming session, and another fabulous graphic was born. Of course. That Andrea is a creative genius.
😉
Girls….here are items that we’ve already talked about (and many of us
have already fallen in love with) that are now on sale!
THESE nude patent
flats are mine and I adore them.
They are 15% off.
chicness to lots of outfits.
I never dreamed I
would wear them as much as I do!
give you another option.
I’ve received many e-mails from you ladies about
THESE nude
flats.
Several of you got them in the neutral, and several got
them in the cognac,
and they also come in navy.
You guys are singing their
praises.
Click HERE for the Colten bootie that is now 20% off.
It’s just the right amount of edgy without
being too over the top. And the color goes with everything.
Plus, I love the
buckle detail and the heel height.
It totally favors the Rag and Bone bootie
(that is $495), but it is actually affordable.
Not many sizes left!
BABIES are 15% off.
Gorgeous.
Fabulous.
Classic.
If you don’t want leopard, but you love the square toe, check out the cognac version
at Zappos HERE.
(I have these exact leopard flats and I am SOOOOO pleased. The first time I wore them, they
were very comfy while I was wearing them, but my right foot was strangely sore
the next day. However, I’ve worn them probably at least 20 times since, and I have ZERO
complaints!)
They are so comfy and crazy stylish!
You can also get the rounded toe version HERE that
are 15% off too.
I also found some things on sale from my WORK IT post (click HERE for the post that was devoted to business casual wear).
HERE that are now 25% off.
These
pants were true to size.
green and turquoise blouses HERE that are now 40% off
(I am wearing a small in the
blouses.)
The pictures on the Nordstrom website do not do these blouses
justice AT ALL. They are much prettier in person. They are not nearly
as sheer as they appear in the pictures online, but I was wearing a black cami under them in my pictures.
(The online pics have a white color
cami, but I like the black under them much better. Nude would be good too.)
A reader (Thanks Jennifer!) facebooked me on Tuesday afternoon to let
me know that this next item was on sale. I added it to the post Tuesday
afternoon, but everybody that read it before noon on Tuesday didn’t see
it, so I felt like I needed to put it on the blog again for the morning
readers.
and the MUST HAVE
jeans (link is for a darker color of the same jeans).
I LOVED it in
black, but the magenta was fun too!
The colored cardigan definitely shows
more of the details.
Click HERE for the magenta option.
I really like the rufffle and how it drapes so perfectly and goes all the way
around, and I’m not normally a ruffle person.
I
have to tell you that I bought the Sperry rain boots that were on sale
at Nordstrom’s and they are wonderful! I know you are partial to Hunters
but I bought the tall black ones and they don’t look like “normal” rain
boots. They look like a riding boot and they are warm. I am wearing
them in snow and and even have on thin socks! Thanks for letting us know
they were on sale. Merry Christmas and Happy Dry Feet to me!
Thanks,
Annie Cox
Check out this next one!!!
I was wearing a small in this picture, but only because they
didn’t have a medium. I know I would like the medium better for a more generous
fit.
Click HERE for the cowl neck
tunic that is now 40% off in 2 remaining colors.
COZY AND
CASUAL…YET TOTALLY POLISHED!
MUST HAVE ultra wideband HUE leggings HERE
PERFECT cardigan to pair with leggings.
colors, and it is the PERFECT length!
is long enough for me to wear with leggings, but if you are over 5’4″ or have a
long torso, it probably won’t be long enough for leggings for you. I love it
with my skinny jeans too!
a tank under it to adequately cover the crotchal area.
still isn’t available.)

goodness do I love a toggle.
It’s been on sale before, but when it was on sale the first time they sold out.
Now it’s back!

sleeve opening is a little big.
But for $45, I’m going
to just deal.
Click HERE
Christmassy….but without the green necklace, you could wear it anytime!
I’m
not sure if you can tell in the picture, but the front of it is sheer and I’m
wearing a nude/camel colored cami under it. It’s t-shirt material, and it zips
up the side for a nice detail.
Also, I like how the back is solid red.
I
wore it with my MUST HAVE jeans (similar pair HERE) and my cognac
wedge boots HERE.
Click HERE for this shirt that is now 40% off!
would have just seen this on the website, I would never have ordered it. It just
looks kind of blah and just hangs on the model. However, when I put it on, I
LOVED IT.
I thought it was very flattering and just had this
casual (yet totally cool) look about it.
do?!?
and my Stella and Dot
Sanibel pendant with it.)

the Kloth Mia toothpick skinny

Only 3 more items, so stick with me!
HOWEVER, now that so
many of us have the HUE leggings, I thought it was worth showing
again.
Click HERE
for the tunic below (it comes in a red colorway too!) that is now 40% off!
This top is
very sheer, so you would definitely have to wear a tank under it.
The design
is awesome, and I love the stripes down the side.
Throw on a black tank
underneath, your black HUE ultra wide waistband leggings, and some cognac boots
(my cognac wedges HERE or the popular Penny boots HERE)…
AND YOU
ARE ALL SET!
Click HERE for the plaid lined jacket (although it’s not on sale).
It’s a great jacket. It’s heavy and seems like it would be pretty warm.
I loved the fit and I really like the hood.
you can order any of the above items for yourself or for Christmas
gifts and still have them in time! Heck, you could even order any of
these items and have them in time to wear them to your Christmas Eve
service at church!
reader facebooked me this morning (thanks Amy!) to let me know the lace
tee I featured several weeks ago is now 70% off! Making it like $10!
have the red and love it, it looks great on it’s own or under my
military jackets or hooded cardigan…but at $10ish I think I need the
dusty pink and the black…and maybe the purple! It’s such a great basic
with a little something special!
Click HERE for the polka dot puffer vest.

I am using a super duper old computer that gives me trouble constantly so I feel your pain! I'm hoping we get a tax refund this year so I can get a new one!! And yes, those snuggles are so worth it! Blogging can always be postponed for those! 🙂
Mix and Match Mama says
I was so prepared for you to show up at my house at 4:30 this morning to borrow my computer…we would have had a great time blogging together in the wee small hours of the morning :).

I just wanted to let you know that I ordered the Hue leggings! Love them! I also ordered the same top that you are expecting to arrive today – the black sweater – but I ordered the black and tan stripe. Love it! My Christmas Eve outfit is complete thanks to your inspiration! – Kim in RI
StacyHudson says
Sheaffer, let me know how the grey sweater from Goodnight Macaroon fits. I like it as well. Wondering what size you ordered and if it run TTS or not. And….get some converse…now! I have a white pair and a pink pair. I wear the white ones ALL the time. Actually, seeing the grey makes me think I should get those too. Merry Christmas to you and you're family! Every day when I open Bloglovin I search right away to see if you have a post. Love your sense of humor and style!
Cory says
What size did you get in that amazing grey and plaid sweater from Goodnight Macaroon? I can't get it out of my head either, but am going back and forth between the S and the M. For reference, I usually wear a small in GAP tops, but I like my tops to be long. I'm 5'9 and sometimes feel like tops can be too short.

Hi Cori! I got a medium!!! I can't wait!
Xoxo,

LOVE your story about you and your little man….the sweetest!!!
Carole V says
I enjoy your posts so much and pretty much consider you my personal stylist! I especially enjoy when Ryan stops by with his "hey girl" comments and when you address us as "y'all" or say "listen people" (I listen!) Wishing you and your family a joyful Christmas and very happy new year 🙂
Alison @ Get Your Pretty On says
Oh my gosh, I wondered what happened to you yesterday! I was really about to call and make sure you were ok when I went to your blog and didn't see a post up. 🙂 I love your Carter story. My little one just asked me to come watch Spongebob with her. Can't miss these moments!
