Weekend Wanderings: Stella & Dot Trunk Show

So these day everyone is selling something, from clothes and jewelry to those crazy wrap things and essential oils.

And I admit I have been sucked in to the trend full force. I admit I have a shopping problem and that is the first step to recovery. But I am not a quitter!

My mom sells Young Loving Essential Oils

She has a few friends who also sell the oils and LuLaRoe Clothing

That Crazy Wrap Thing


But my favorite and something I would like to be a consultant/stylist for soon is Stella & Dot.

& the first step in my eyes is hosting a Trunk Show!!

One of my girlfriends from back in Orlando is a consultant and I have had my eye on a few pieces from earrings to purses and they will be mine soon! But I figured why not let my friends enjoy too and I hopefully reap the benefits of their purchase.

I am adding two pieces to my closet.. so far

First the City Slim Clutch in slate grey with a gorgeous clear quartz accent.
Stella & Dot

And the Sparkle Studs which are only $19!!! They sell out frequently and I was able to get my hands on them during my trunk show



I can never seem to find a pair of stone studs that I am in love it, they are either to big or to fake looking. I have faith in these and can't wait till they get here!! 

This post is not sponsored and I am not making anything from it I just really love the brand and working with a friend as my stylist/consultant to make sure I am always getting the best deal. 

I have two other pieces from Stella & Dot that J got me for my birthday. A pair of earrings and matching ring from their lightening collection. He knows  supports my love  obsession for all things Harry Potter.

I wear the ring while I wash dishes and  I wear the earrings for days on end. These pieces weren't expensive at all (under $30 for both) and there are no jewels missing my finger doesn't turn green and the earrings feel like they aren't even there!


The trunk show is also an excuse for me to have a girls night but that will be in another post, it is still being planned. I have yet to have a girls night at our new place and I am really hoping for one that works out, but all my girlfriends here in Jax have kids so its not as easy as it sounds. 

Well that is it for now! 
I hope everyone had a wonderful weekend and Happy Fathers Day to all the Dads out there! J got beer, brownies and cards from the furry children of our house.

I am currently reading multiple books, and listening to a few but we will call that reading as well.

Lets get started.

First book is one I picked up from our apartments Little Library - a take a book give a book kinda deal.


Certain Girls: A Novel by Jennifer Weiner  is the final book in a series of three ( I wasn not aware of this when I found the book). This is a book about a mother and rebellious teen trying to get along, a husband and wife debating over having a baby and all the crazy family members and friendships in between.

Me Before You by Jojo Moyes - You've seen the previews and the movie but the book is ten times better. I am not technically "currently reading", and I have mentioned it before here, but I did just finish it and recommend it to all my girlfriends.  You will cover all of your emotions in about every chapter. It is simply amazing
