Well, everyone, the big Nordstrom Anniversary Sale 2018 is upon us. I’ve been shopping this sale since high school (we didn’t have a Nordstrom in our town so I did it online…in 2003….I was such a pioneer.) . Nordstrom started the Anniversary Sale in the 1970s as a way to boost sales during the summer […]

Father’s Day can be a little stressful in terms of gift giving; I consider myself an awesome shopper and shopping for dads and husbands can really stump me. I use the holiday as an excuse to give the man in my life something I think he wouldn’t buy himself OR as a way to introduce […]
I’m very excited to be teaming up with a local furniture company Interior Define that’s headquartered here in Chicago. So, what is Interior Define, anyway?
