I mean, HILARIOUS.
Kelly from Kelly’s Korner posted this on twitter earlier this week, and I laughed so hard!
Now THAT’S some creative (and effective, I imagine) parenting!
Speaking of Kelly, you might want to go see her over at Shay’s today.
Shay is debuting her pajama party series, and Kelly is her first guest!

This stuff is muy delicioso.
It’s flavored with Splenda instead of Aspartame, which is a good thing!
3)
I wore this yesterday, and it’s a perfect example of a go-to outfit for me.
This combo is definitely one of my favorite things to wear:
a t-shirt, a cardigan, a favorite pair of jeans, a pair of TOMS or flats
Easy. Comfy. Cute.
Jeans| Nordstrom, exact pair HERE
V-neck t| J Crew Factory, fall colors HERE
(I have 4 different colors of this v-neck. Definitely a wardrobe staple for me.)
Yellow cardigan| LOFT, similar HERE
This cardigan comes in 14 colors, and it’s 30% off, as is everything at LOFT right now!
Blue Sunbrella TOMS| sold out, but great fall options HERE (camo) and HERE (leopard)
4)
I’m sure this goes without saying.
But just in case you aren’t aware.
I’m full on obsessed with THESE.
5)
I am LOVING all of the e-mails I am getting from you guys about how you FINALLY believe me that leopard is a neutral! WooHoo!!!!!
You guys are wearing leopard with bold colors, with stripes (my favorite thing to pair with leopard), and I even got an e-mail yesterday that one reader is wearing leopard
with polka-dots (shout out Catherine!). 🙂
I featured the Sam Edelman rounded toe flat (in the middle) last week, but in case you haven’t made the leap into leopard, I have a couple of more options for you now at varying price points….
ALL from Sam Edelman.
Because if you are going to buy leopard flats, you might as well do it right,
and Mr. Edelman knows what he’s doing.
rounded toe print HERE, rounded toe calf hair HERE, square toe calf hair HERE
When working on the above leopard flats collage, I stumbled upon THESE leopard heels.
My goodness these would SASS up a little black dress.
AND HOW GREAT would they look with the MUST HAVE jeans with a MUST HAVE shirt.
There is absolutely NO WAY you could wear these shoes and not feel sexy!
6)
I haven’t seen these next 3 items in person, but I hopped on Old Navy.com earlier this week (which I haven’t done in awhile), and I was intrigued by these three items:
black wrap dress HERE (on sale for $20! what?)
cardigan HERE (tons of colors)
tan tote HERE
They would all be great basics to have.
Check out the Old Navy dress with the Sam Edelman heels!
Oh wait! I found another leopard heel HERE from Enzo Angiolini!
This pair is a peep toe (love!) and it’s 55% off, making them just under $50! What a deal!
7)
I am also LOVING…..
get ready……
wait for it…..
the FINAL MARKDOWNS ON SHOES AND BOOTS at Nordstrom.
AWESOME shoes and boots are still available, so I thought they deserved an AWESOME collage.
It only took me like an hour to create it.
#wishiwaskidding
#mycollagemakingskillsneedsomework
Click the number for a direct link to the shoe of your choice:
And is it just me, or does the phrase “going, going, gone….” make your heart race?!?
I wrote it in the collage, and then I started to panic inside.
I need help.
Clearly.
Or if you are looking for a great pair of heels,
these Vince Camuto heels come in lots of colors (as well as snake skin).
LOVE the peep toe and the sling back.
And you can’t beat under $75 for a great pair of heels!
The bottom right pair reminds me of my putty wedges…and I am obsessed with that color and how it seems to literally go with anything and everything you put with it.
Click HERE for these awesome heels in solid colors.
Click HERE for the snakeskin version.

There are also other things I found ON SALE at Nordstrom that totally peaked my interest!
*
When I highlighted items from the Anniversary Sale back in July, I got TONS of e-mail about Hanky Panky underwear. I had never heard of this brand, but some of you ladies are
HARD CORE Hanky Panky fans.
There are select Hanky Panky items on sale HERE.
All of you that wrote me about them said that they are expensive, so you make sure you always buy them on sale. It’s your lucky day!
*
I’ve talked to you about my love of Natori bras before.
I only buy them on sale.
Select bras on sale HERE!
*
I had never even heard of Zella work out gear until the Anniversary sale, but you all let me know about it! There are some pieces on sale again HERE!
*
Michael Kors trench coat HERE (the red and the khaki are my favorite!)
*
waxed denim HUE leggings HERE
*
cashmere blend crewneck polka dot sweater HERE
solid color cashmere sweater HERE (lots of gorgeous colors!)
*
stone ring HERE , call of the wild hinged bangle HERE
*
eileen fisher ballet neck dolman sleeve tee HERE
*
military jacket in the little girls department HERE
if you are petite, you can wear this!
(check out the cute ruffled back)
*
The lace front cardigan HERE that I highlighted yesterday is now on sale! And it’s 50% off!
*
Kut from the Kloth slim boyfriend jeans. I was thinking they would look SO cute with the lace cardigan above, and then I realized she’s wearing them!
Click HERE for the jeans. 50% off!
I’ve tried these on and they are the only boyfriend jeans I’ve ever had on in my life that I really like.
They are slouchy without being too baggy, and they just have a great fit.
9)
I received an e-mail from LOFT this morning that EVERYTHING is 30% off right
now with the code EVERYTHING! Click HERE to shop the entire sale!
AND YOU GET A $25 SAVINGS CARD FOR EVERY $50 YOU SPEND!
But here are some of my favorite picks:
Click HERE for a khaki trench coat piped in black!
My navy sheer dot tee from earlier this week HERE.
We talked about ruffles yesterday, and I have NO IDEA how I missed THIS tiered ruffled shirt.
OH MY GOODNESS I LOVE IT! (pictured below)
Imagine it with the MUST HAVE jeans or the the Kut boyfriend jeans above!
UPDATE!
I headed to LOFT today and was able to try on some things.
red sweater (with cute brass detail on shoulder) HERE
grey peter pan short sleeve sweater HERE (I actually LOVED this!)
sweater jacket with peplum (can’t find link anywhere)
button back tulip sleeve tee top HERE
tweed asymmetrical zip jacket HERE (Shay has this jacket too, and I think it’s super cool!)
long necklace HERE
dot layered ruffled blouse HERE
LOVE this.
It came home with me.
Polka dot shirt dress HERE.
long necklace HERE
This dress came home with me too.
I’ve never owned anything like it, but I thought it was SUPER cute. I don’t think the pictures do it justice. For size reference, mine is a small. It’s going to look great with tights and tall boots!
(I like like I’m glowing because of the lights.)
#i’mpale,buti’mnotthatpale
Okay, that’s it for today friends!
I hope everybody has a WONDERFUL weekend!
I have something near and dear to my heart that I’m working on this weekend, and I can’t wait to share it with you guys sometime over the next couple of weeks!
See you back here on Monday!!!!
xoxo,
Sheaffer 🙂
Mix and Match Mama says
Oh my goodness! I need like everything you just mentioned! Those slouchy jeans would look so cute with the little booties above it. And the leopard heels…hello,?!?! I so need those too!
Tab & Erika says
I loved your random list today!! I wanted it all! Everything except the flavored peach tea! You know how much I love a flavored tea. 🙂
Narci D says
Wow wow! So much to love here! My favorite are the Sam Edelman heels! So pretty!
aprilparrish says
I am in love with the leopard peep toe heels you featured and what an awesome price! I seriously have a leopard obsession!!! ;-). Great job featuring some amazing sales today!
Have a great weekend! Can't wait to find out what your working on!!!
Morgan Weller says
You had me at peach tea!!! Soul. Sisters. I need to know where that is purchased!!! I also need the Call of the Wild leopard bracelet to match my zebra one…..obviously. And I need those snake skin heels! Stat!
Christie says
I'm so on the fence about the Tom's. I will have to take a trip to Nordstrom soon.
Morgan Weller says
Also, do you know if the TOMs ever go on sale? I'm waiting for the perfect time to buy the camo ones, after I purchased the leopard ones a few months ago….but if there is no sense in waiting I might as well have cute camo feet sooner rather than later! I also know my settings are set to private but I don't know how to change them! So I'm sorry. I couldn't find the blog where you explained all about it! I know it's annoying 🙁 so sorry gurl.
Sheaffer says
Hi Morgan! I think now is the perfect time. Popular TOMS (like these camos) will most probably never go on sale. I've only seen a pair of TOMS go on sale once in a blue moon (and it's never a pair that I would want, if you know what I mean.) 🙂
xoxo,
Sheaffer 🙂
Danielle says
A shoe sale! I'm all about the shoes and have way too many for my own good but I might just have to check it out! The saying at the top of your post was hilarious. I'm going to have to remember that someday when I'm a mom!
Amber Crawford Walker says
I am so envious right now!!! Being 21 weeks pregnant is not allowing me to try any of these cute clothes!!! Come January, I'm gonna have this baby and then work hard on losing weight (plus sized before I got preggers) so that I can start wearing all these adorable clothes. Motivation!!!
kristinwithani says
Those animal print peep toe pumps are amazing! Those red heels are stunning. I wish I NEEDED them.
Carly Lee (C. Style Blog) says
My favorite is the Zella link! Oh, and the Arizona peach tea
Marion says
Old Navy also has a coupon code ONTREAT for 20% off making the $20 black dress only $16!! Thanks!
Marion says
Old Navy has a 20% off coupon code – ONTREAT . It will make that cute black dress only $16!!!
Love all your all your great sale info! You have saved me so much money (or really spent it) over the last year!
Alison @ Get Your Pretty On says
I need to try the Arizona diet peach, I've been hooked to Snapple's for years but it's not sweetened with Splenda. Must have those animal print peep toe's. OH MY!
Jackie T. says
Hey Scheaffer, the link for the #2 boot is incorrect…it takes it to a Via Spiga boot but I know that boot is the Enzo Saylem boot because I've had mine for 3 years and I LOVE them! Thanks for all the good deals!
Sheaffer says
Hi Jackie! Oh my goodness, you are right! Don't know how that happened! I am not at home right now, but I will fix the link as soon as I walk in the door. Thanks for bringing the error to my attention.
xoxo,
Sheaffer 🙂
Andrea Munding says
You have such a fun personality! So glad I found this blog. Just bought the Hue leggings 🙂
V @ X-tremely V says
Finally received my Vigoss jeans in the mail (in the correct size) and I love them! Will be posting about them soon! Thanks so much for the rec 🙂 And I think I will be picking up that bag from Old Navy this weekend! Love it!

Tiffany {A Touch of Grace} says
My leopard Sam's are on their way as I type this! I can't wait to get them! I ended up going with the rounded toe, so hopefully they work out!
Christie says
I posted earlier about wanting the Toms. Well, I'm wearing them now…
Mana says
I love these types of posts. I really want those leopard Sam Edelman's because he's my favorite shoe designer. (Unless you count Hunter boots, because I want them all as impractical as that is.)

Sabrina says

Just got a pair of camo flats and I'm super excited. Your fashion tips really inspire me to not just wear my comfy "mom" clothes every day 🙂
Kathy Olson says
You look fantastic in that dress!
