5 Steals and a Splurge

(Thought I would share this post that was meant to go live on Monday, while I get my life in gear after my loooong weekend.  Plus, late is better than never, right?)  Happy Memorial Day!  I had a rockin' time in San Diego with my bf and old college friends.  Today's 5 Steals and a Splurge is from the oh so lovely Mackenzie from Design Darling.  Mackenzie's blog features bright and cheery interiors, and my favorite feature:  101 in 1,001 days.  You should totally check it out and make your own list!

Hi there! I'm Mackenzie from Design Darling and I'm excited to share my five steals and a splurge with you all today. 

1. First up is this Paper Source address book ($31). One of the goals on my 101 in 1001 list is to start an address book for all my family and friends. Especially since I just graduated from college and my friends are now dispersed all over the country, I think this would be a fantastic purchase!

2. I love these Sweet Lulu party favor boxes ($8 for four). Obviously they're intended for a children's party but I think they're perfect for a summer garden party as well.

3. These Forever 21 platform wedges ($23) are a major steal. The wood wedge is a trend I can totally get behind and the navy color is an unexpected alternative to black or tan. Plus the price can't be beat! 

4. I swear I'd wear these Loren Hope earrings ($40) every day year-round. Loren is one of my blog sponsors, the biggest sweetheart, and an extremely talented designer to boot! I literally want everything in her summer collection.

5. This Janet Hill print ($26) is pretty, sparkly, and affordable. That's what we call a win-win-win :)

6. This Rebecca Minkoff jacket ($325) is definitely splurge-worthy. It flew off the virtual shelves at Shopbop and I can totally see why! Its punchy color and tailored silhouette make it the perfect topper for your summer sundress.

Thank you so much for having me, KC!
