Shopping Saturday: Trying on 3.1 Phillip Lim for Target

My sister and I hit Target this week to try on the new 3.1 Phillip Lim for Target line. The first Target that I went to did not get any pieces in (Target on Hillsboro in Deerfield Beach). I chose that one because I thought they would have the best selection since not that many people would shop for Phillip Lim there. Obviously, Target took my thought process into consideration. I then went to the east Deerfield Beach, Florida store where I tried on a few pieces and was told that a few things sold old immediately including the famous Phillip Lim bags. I checked on Ebay to see if the bags were on there and upon searching “phillip lim target” (no quotes used in search), I received 7,364 results. The Boom sweatshirt that I bought for $29.99 sold for $40.00 here. None of the bags are available as of today on Target’s website. The price for the Mini Satchels were priced at $34.99 and are going for $67.00 with $9.99 shipping on ebay.

Priceless Date Night #PricelessMiami #MC

Disclosure

Since the baby was born 2 months ago, my husband and I have been making a concentrated effort to get out the house and do a date night every week. Of course, during the first few weeks after birth that didn’t happen. We were far too sleep-deprived to go anywhere! Now that the baby is sleeping more, I have been planning a weekly date night. This week I found a great deal on dinner through the MasterCard Priceless website. MasterCard is working with Miami Spice from August 1st – September 30th, offering three-course meals featuring signature dishes created by world-renowned chefs. The dinners are $39 per person. Of course, this price is far below what you would normally spend at these restaurants. The deal made it easy for my hubby and I to try an expensive restaurant without spending a fortune. After all, we now have a baby at home to consider.

Noelle Bathing Suits

My friends and family were recently strolling along the indoor flea market in Coral Spring, Florida when I saw an awesome bathing suit on a mannequin. The Resa accentuates the waist making it look like you are wearing a belt! As soon as I have a waist to accentuate, I am getting one! I was shocked that there was something so high fashion at this event. The designer of Noelle bathing suits recently moved to the area and was getting rid of her sample bathing suits.

Cute Birth Announcements

I am officially announcing my child’s birth to my readers and to my friends and family! These days people announce this sort of thing on Facebook or even twitter. I am a huge fan of announcing monumental events, like having a child to my close friends and family via a traditional avenue using birth announcements.

I prefer mailing birth announcements to only announcing on Facebook for several reasons:

1. Not all my friends and family are on social media. I want everyone to hear the good news not just my friends and few family members that are on Facebook!
2. I want my friends and family to have physical pictures of my daughter to frame or put on their fridge. I keep out photo Christmas cards, photo baby announcements, and wedding save the dates on my fridge for a while. I love looking at happy moments in my friends’ and family’s lives.
3.  I love receiving mail and I suspect other people do too!  Everyday, I get the mail in the hopes that there will something fun besides bill and advertisements in it. Sometimes it is a magazine or a package, but other times it is a picture card from a friend or family. I adore all of it!

Baby Bath Time Video

As a new parent, I want to capture every moment of my child’s life perfectly so that I can look back at it when she’s older. It is painful to think about her getting older because she is my little girl. Of course, I want her to grow up, but I want to protect her from the world. She is beyond innocent now and I would love to be able to keep it that way. I realize that is not reality, but a mom can dream!
