Who Loves Target?

It's official. Over the last few months Target has become one of my FAVORITE store. But when I got excited about the information that I'm about to share, I knew I had a problem! Lol! So I'm literally in the middle of catching up on the dozens of blogs that I follow (I stopped to do this post) and I just came across this information on Fashion Without Guilt

I HAVE TARGET'S MARKDOWN SCHEDULE!!! 
Yes!!! And after that is an even better tip. I'll save the best for last.

Monday // Kids’ Clothing, Stationery (office supplies, gift wrap), Electronics
Tuesday // Women’s Clothing and Domestics
Wednesday // Men’s Clothing, Toys, Health and Beauty
Thursday // Lingerie, Shoes, Housewares.
Friday // Cosmetics

Now, here is the best part (in my opinion). If the price ends in 8, it will be marked down again. If the price ends in 4, it's the lowest price. Good info, right? I know!

Since shoes were marked down today, I foresee a trip to Target in the very near future! Hope this excites someone else as much as it did me!

Plain Jane



 Hey ladies! Long time no see, right? I know! I've been feeling guilty for not checking in. Which is why I'm sharing this "Plain Jane" outfit. Yes, I know it's nothing special. Honestly, jeans and a top are my normal wear. I only really dress up every now and then.


 I took pictures the other day, but they just weren't blog worthy. They were more boring than these! Lol! While it's on my mind... HI, NEW FOLLOWERS!!! Thanks for joining me here! It's nice to know that people care what I'm blogging about and I'm not here rambling to myself! :) I hope you continue to enjoy All Things Me!


The shoes are the only exciting things here... and I love them! I got them from a store called Shoe Show. I'm not sure if they have those everywhere, so here's an almost identical pair from Kohl's. --> Candie's Loafers I'm actually mad that I didn't find these first!

 
Talk to you ladies later!

Wedding Wear


 

Hey ladies! Here's what I wore to attend one of my co-worker's wedding this weekend. You've seen the top before here and the pants are from my new found love... Target! (I've even considered getting a part time job there to get the discount!) Lol! But yeah... here's a close up of the print.


Now to be honest, when I see something that I like, I go to the price tag first. What can I say? I'm really frugal. But when I saw this print the price didn't really matter (they were only $20). I LOVE these pants and they are so comfortable!


Of course I was in a hurry to leave, so the above two pictures are all that I could get before leaving. The other two were taken later that night.

Top  - Candie's via Kohl's // Pants - Target (not sold online, but can view and find in store here) // Shoes - Carlos Santana via Ross

Necklace - thrifted // Watch - Merona for Target



Funny story: I had a first. My first public fall! Yes!!! Walking into the church before the wedding. Thank God there were only a few people to witness - my beau, two friends, and the two men standing at the doors of the church. I was going up the steps into the church and I guess the last step was a little higher than I thought. I screamed before I hit the ground. The first thing that touched down was my right knee. You don't even want to see it. It's bad! Once I fell... the first thing I did? Made sure there wasn't a hole in my pants! Who wants to walk around all day at a wedding and reception with a hole in their pants? And I thought I was cute! Honey, forget a scraped knee! I'll see about that later! Lol! Y'all I really hit it hard! It's still pretty painful now. The knee is the worst place! I can't bend it at all without it being painful. But whatever! I'm really just glad my pants survived the fall to see another day!


Oh and what's surprising to me is that I thought it was funny instead of being embarrassed. Have you ever fell in public? Were you embarrassed?

A White Morning

Hey ladies!

When I was doing my Influester follow-up post yesterday, I realized that I never posted these pictures. I have no clue how I forgot. I had to be to work at 7 this morning, so I had to drag myself out of bed to take these pictures in time. I had everything placed out the night before so I wouldn't be late. I was so proud of myself! Please excuse my facial expressions... lol. It was too early! I've never been a morning person! I wish I could have gotten better pictures, but I didn't have time to keep snapping. Oh well!
 
Top - Ross // Jeans - American Eagle // Shoes - JS Waleo

So yeah... I definitely need to practice taking these pictures. It feels so awkward standing in an empty room in front of a tripod.

Talk to you ladies later!

Influenster Spring Beauty VoxBox Follow-up

Hey ladies!

I finally made it back to give my opinions on the products from my first VoxBox. I really enjoyed my first box and hope that I'm selected to participate again in the future. If you like trying new products, you should definitely give Influenster a try. That wasn't a plug... lol. Just my honest opinion!

 The Sheer Cover concealer works pretty good. I haven't actually worn it out, but I did wear it around the house for a few hours. (Used it for a makeup look for the blog. Couldn't figure out my lighting to get good pictures. UGH! You care? Moving right along.) I use MAC Studio Finish Concealer and the Sheer Cover seems to be comparable. One thing that I really like is that isn't as thick as the Studio Finish. 
*Price: Sold in one-month supply kit of 6 products + 3 bonus for $29.95.
Would I buy? Yes, if it was sold separately.

 I mentioned in the first post that I'm very picky about my lip balm. I stopped using the ChapStick brand a few years ago and now I remember why. It feels moisturizing when it's first applied, but within a few minutes I can't tell that I just applied it. The first time that I used this, I was pleasantly surprised. I LOVED the smell and it felt extremely moisturizing! However, that didn't last long. That's my main problem with it. It might work for someone who doesn't have dry lips or who doesn't use lip balm often. 
Price: $1.89 - $2.39
Would I buy? No

 This will be quick. Didn't like it. It reminded me of a strawberry NutriGrain bar (which I love), but something about it just didn't tastse right. I'm picky about the texture of my food, so that could be it. 
*Price: $0.99 - $1.29
Would I buy? No

 Love this body wash. It does exactly what it says... it moisturizes. In fact, it's so moisturizing that the first time I used it, I thought I still had soap on my skin after rinsing. Instead of my skin feeling "squeaky clean" it felt clean and moisturized. 
*Price: $6.99 - $8.99 for full-size bottle
Would I buy? Yes, and I plan to.

 These nail strips were probably my favorite product in the box. I was hesitant to try them (I thought I would mess them up), but when I did I loved them! I already had another design, so I used those. After the first one, they were fairly easy to apply. I don't think I did a good job of smoothing down my ends and that caused a little peeling within the first hour. I used a clear top coat to stop the peeling. I only had them on for about 1 week. 
*Price: $9.99
Would I buy? Yes, if they're on sale!

 I've always loved sweet pea, so of course I had no issue with this. 
*Price: $14.99
Would I buy? Yes

I had such high hopes for these! I love the Dr. Scholl's for Her High Heel insoles, but these don't compare... at all. I wore them here and I also wore them with the JS Waleo. The first pair of shoes are very uncomfortable without inserts. With the inserts, it was just a little less uncomfortable. Good thing I only wore them for a couple of hours. With the JS shoes, the shoes were actually more comfortable without the inserts. Have any of you ever used these? Maybe I'm doing something wrong?! *Shrugs*
**Price: $5.47
Would I buy? No. But if you're interested, definitely try the High Heel insoles. They are the best!

*Prices taken from description card in VoxBox
**Price taken from Walmart and Target online

Let me know if you have any questions on any of the products! Have you used any of these products?

It's Fashion // I initially thought these were a skirt, but they're pants. I LOVE how comfortable they are.

Is anyone else loving the sheer trend as much as I am?
