Amazon Prime Day 2022 Guide

Amazon Prime Day is officially here! I just updated my guide to include some deals – a lot of which I think are really good!

I didn’t go crazy with my guide, as I wanted to keep it simple. There are a lot of sales happening this week, and it can be overwhelming, so I stuck with some basics and tried to include a mix of beauty, fashion, and home.

Beauty

Revitalash Eyelash Serum – You know I LOVE this stuff!! I have a blog post on it here. They have both the larger size and the smaller size on sale.

Reak Techniques – beauty sponge. I’ve heard amazing reviews on this – comparable to the Beauty Blender.

Sonicare Electric Toothbrush – If you haven’t made the switch to an electric toothbrush, I’d do It now! I have this exact one, so I’m happy to see this as part of the Prime Day deals! My dentist was able to tell when I made the switch to an electric toothbrush, so it really makes a difference!

Fashion

Nude heels – I’m actually on the market for some nude heels, and I’ve been loving these wrap around options here and here, as well as this pair with clear straps.

Oversized blazer – They’re so easy to style and this one comes in a variety of colors.

Home

Velvet hangers – I use these hangers and have almost switched out my entire closet with them. I love how thin they are and how the clothes actually stay on. Highly recommend.

Newair Wine Cooler – This is the large size and is normally over a thousand bucks, but the Prime Day deal brings it to just under $960!

I will continue to update my Amazon Storefront as I see more deals come up (that I think are great!). I have a “Prime Day 2022” section you can reference as you shop!

Happy shopping!

Nordstrom Anniversary Sale Guide | 2022

It’s officially that time! Time to preview the Nordstrom Anniversary Sale!

This is the time when I do the majority of my shopping from Nordstrom. I try to stick to a theme every year in order to stay focused and within my budget. For example, during the year COVID-19 first hit, I stuck with loungewear. Another year, my focus was on accessories – Nordstrom’s brand is great quality! This year, my focus is kind of spread out.. where I’m wanting one lounge piece, maybe one necklace, and perhaps a pair of shoes? Yes, I don’t really have a theme this year, but if I plan to stick to only ONE item per category, I think I’ll be good! I’ll share what I eventually end up ordering!

One important thing to take note of is the tiered access system. If you’re a Nordstrom Card holder, you’ll get earlier access to the sale, depending on how much you spend a year.

One important thing I need to mention is to ALWAYS stay focused and never go past your budget. It can be very easy to get excited and get off track – which is why I find a theme for each year or a main focus. A general piece of advice for any major sale is to stick to basics. I recently read that your wardrobe should be 80% basics and 20% trendy pieces, which I think is a great rule to follow.

I usually use this sale to try something I’ve been wanting to try, but didn’t want to make the splurge without a sale. I also use this sale as a time to buy jewelry. I’ve found Nordstrom brand jewelry to be great quality! I have a number of pieces from Nordstrom that have lasted years!

I took a look at the preview for the sale and put together things I don’t think will sell out fast. One of my biggest pet peeves is hearing full-time influencers share items that are already sold out by the time the general public has access to the sale. So, I made it a point to only include a few big name brand pieces. I do have one collage dedicated to Barefoot Dreams, but I’m hoping there’s enough variety to where you will still have options if something is sold out – like the leopard blanket for example – it sells out FAST! So, I include other blanket styles as well.

My husband never shops the NSale, so I didn’t take the time to make any collages for the menswear/accessories. The same goes for kids, since we don’t have kids.

The NSale is one of my favorite sales and I look forward to it every year! I hope you find my guide helpful!

Lulu’s sale! | 20% off sitewide

I’ve been planning to buy a few outfits from Lulu’s for our honeymoon cruise, so the timing of this sale is perfect!  You can get 20% off SITEWIDE with code: STARS20 from June 30 – July 3.

I love Lulu’s because they offer a variety of options from special occasions, vacation outfits, accessories, shoes, and even bridal! Even though I got married almost a year ago, you know I’ve got a few white outfits on my list for this sale!

I took a look at their newest pieces, but also included a few sets they seem to have year-round. Be sure to comment what you’re shopping for!

Happy shopping!

Best Sellers | June 19 – 25

Last week’s best sellers is for all the dog lovers!

First off, we have this foldable dog pool, which I was VERY tempted to take out over the weekend.. for myself! It’s so easy to use and set up – it’s such a fun way for your pups to cool off this summer. They come in three different sizes – check out my video on it here!

I’m so happy to see the Furbo on the list! It’s been so nice being able to not only check up on the corgis when we’re gone, but I really like the alerts you can set up with it. From “person spotted,” chewing alerts, and even alerts if your pet is throwing up – it’s so helpful! I shot a review on this when we first got the Furbo, you can watch it here.

The Amazon purse strap makes the list yet again – a top, top seller of mine. It comes in several different color options and is comfortable on your shoulder.

This pajama set from Target is so comfortable and perfect for the summer season. It’s light and breathable, plus it’s very cute!

Lastly, these jeans from Express are so versatile – dress up it or down and you’re ready to go anywhere! I have them in a size 0R. I wear them with the ends folded, most of the time.

Amazon Prime Day | Early Sales | Sign up for Prime!

Are you ready for Amazon’s Prime Day?! This year, the sales started early, which means there will be even more sales to take advantage of on actual Prime Day!

What is Amazon Prime Day? 

Amazon Prime Day is a two-day sale event where Prime members can get hundreds of exclusive deals on products through Amazon. This year, it’s happening on July 12 – 13. Prime deals will be across the board from beauty, fashion, electronics, decor, and more!

If you plan on participating on Prime Day, make sure you’re signed up for the Prime membership. This will also grant you access to Amazon Prime TV – we have it and watch shows on there all the time, so it’s beneficial for us to have it! The Prime membership will also allow you take advantage of the “try before you buy” deals on select clothing – another huge benefit!

I wanted to make this blog post to let you all know of the deals happening right now (a lot of items which are still in stock btw!), and to remind you to sign up for the Prime membership, so you don’t miss out on any deals!

I’ve made a Prime Day hub on my Amazon Storefront to help you find the best deals! Check it out here and continue to check back on Prime Day! Right now, a lot of electronics are on sale like TVs, Apple Airpods Pros, iPads and more. I’m planning to make a separate blog post on the actual sale once we get closer to July 12!

Rent designer handbags! | Vivrelle review

Hope your weekend is going well! This week’s video is dedicated to all my designer lovers out there! If you love designer handbags and find yourself window or online-window shopping for them, then this luxury members-only club is for you!

I recently discovered Vivrelle and wanted to share it all with you all, but only after I gave it a full month of testing. I’m now on my second purse and feel that I can really give you a good feel for how it works.

First off, Vivrelle members can rent designer handbags or designer jewelry a month at a time. You will hear a ton of influencers talk about the lowest membership level being $39 a month, but that is ONLY to rent designer jewelry. It’s upsetting, because they never mention jewelry being an option (at least from what I’ve seen online), so it can be a little misleading. My membership is at the Classique level, so I’m able to rent one purse and jewelry (which I haven’t yet and don’t plan to do) for $99 a month.

I’m very happy with my membership level and don’t see myself moving up anytime soon. Personally, my max on this would be $100 a month because I still get great handbag options to choose from in the Vivrelle closet.

I think Vivrelle is a great tool to use because it basically lets you test out bags to see if the functionality of a purse would fit your lifestyle. I think this is so helpful because these handbags cost thousands of dollars! They have tons of options from totes, clutches, crossbody, and more.

Another thing I like about this club is that if you really like the purse you have, you can choose to continue to rent it month after month – so long as you continue to pay your membership fee. The process of swapping bags is also very easy! I recommend “favoriting” bags you plan to rent (even if they are currently borrowed) because you’ll get an email notification when they’re back in the closet and available to rent.

The question I always ask with any membership before I sign up is, can I cancel? The answer is yes, as long as anything you’ve rented is back with Vivrelle, you are free to cancel! One thing to be aware of is that Vivrelle requires a three-month membership minimum. After that, you are free to cancel.

Want to rent luxury handbags? You can use my code: CHRISTINAONAIR to skip to the front of the waitlist! Happy renting! 🙂
