Love or hate Valentine’s Day, it’s still full of sales so why not profit on that angle, am I right? The boys have cute parties at school so I threw together a fun little outfit to be festive along with them!

| Lips Top | Distressed Skinny Jeans | Similar Leopard Clutch | Earrings |

| Similar Watch | Bangle Bracelets |

And how can we not add in my favorite shoes?! They really are just perfect for all holidays

And out of sheer laziness I am just going to link some of my fave picks from each store! Show a little love for yourself this year and grab something that puts a smile on your face! Especially from this new line that Bauble Bar has launched at Target! Affordable and adorable are two words that have me snatching things up before they are gone

I hope you all have a beautiful week!

I have many people in my life who are next to impossible to shop for! Like the… oh I don’t care what I get kinda people.  You know who you are.  So I made a Top Ten Eleven List of my Favorite Things- just to give some go to ideas for the random presents you might need!

1.  Michael Kors Watch  2.  Humans of New York Book  3.  GlamGlow Face Mask

4.  Kate Spade Planner  5.  Stay Fancy Wine Glass  6.  Leopard Clutch

7.  Kate Spade iPhone Case  8.  Slippers  9.  Peace Sign Tray

10.  Bauble Bar Knot Earrings  11.  Sara Happ Lip Gloss

 Just a few notes… MK watch- always a crowd pleaser and on sale! The Humans of New York book would be an awesome gift! Such great real life stories.  You can follow them on Instagram to see what it’s all about.

Glam Glow face mask basically makes you look 10 years younger after 20 minutes… and no they aren’t paying me to say that.  The lip gloss… I have mentioned it before and it will remain on my Must Have list for life!

I have those slippers in pink from last year and even my Boys try and steal them they are so comfy! Pink and all:) I might need the white ones now though…

That leopard clutch is beyond adorable! If you want to grab an extra one for me that would be just fine! And how cute is the Kate Spade planner and iPhone case?

No clue what someone will like?  Why not get them a little peace sign trinket tray for $14… super cute!

And last but not least… Stay Fancy people with your Stay Fancy wine glass! I may pour beer in mine but it will still be Fancy cause it says so!

I think any of these gifts would bring a smile to a face! And mine… once again… feel free to buy extras for me.  I kid… kinda.

I hope you have a beautiful week and am so thankful for y’all!

Oh and head HERE to find some fun Stocking Stuffers as shown below! (cause everyone needs a banana flask)

Who is ready for a fun Summer Shopping List?! ME!

Sometimes my picks have a true reason for the season… but… sometimes they don’t and I just like and want them:)

Let’s start with my favorite fun outfit~

| Free People Swing Top | Gladiator Sandal | Crossbody Bag | Necklace |

| Tassle Bracelets  |  Watch |

This top is so pretty and so comfortable- it even has pockets hidden in the swing:)  And the rest of the accessories are going to work with almost any outfit you put on!

Now as for summer beauty… my summer will consist of pool, sweating, more pool, more sweating, and travel.

| Evian Facial Spray |

| Fringe Swim Cover-Up | Straw Hat |

A cute cover up is essential and the Evian spray I have mentioned before and love at any time of the year.  But during the summer it is so refreshing and then the Dr. JART masks are just about the best things EVER!

Remember when I told you about Sara Happ LipSlip Lipgloss and how it is the most amazing thing EVER? Well these Dr. Jart Hydrogel Masks are just the Bee’s Knees as well!

I wanted to sleep with the mask on just because it was so cool and relaxing! and no one is paying me to say this… but if they want to, I think I could do a pretty awesome infomercial!  (I should note that you are only supposed to wear it for 20-30 minutes).

The hat is a no brainer.  Listen ladies- we can use tanners and bronzers to get our healthy glow! Say no to sun on that pretty face! Maybe in another post I will show all of my favorite bronzers…

So there you have it- some Summer Favorites! Comment and let me know what some of yours are!

It is Nordstrom Triple Points time- which means for those of you who have a Nordstrom card- you are working your way towards awesome $20 notes headed your way! If you don’t have one, you can go here to check out the deets.

If you follow me on Instagram, you saw that I was in deep concentration when I received the new Nordstrom Catalog. (Follow @WindgateLane here for sneak peaks and fashion inspiration)

Did you notice that Nordstrom Liked my post? It’s like the MotherLand nodding at me!

Ok, enough chit chat- my faves thus far! This simple necklace comes in silver too and I am wanting it for every outfit- and the friendship bracelet I’m sure most of you had in 8th grade? My eyes can’t make those anymore so for $20 some dollars, I want it!  The Kendra Scott gorgeousness is going in the- I want for Mother’s Day- bag

 | 1. | 2. | 3. | 4. | 5. |

These cute sandal choices speak for themselves!

| 1. | 2. | 3. |

I am loving all of the floral and lace for spring! These are three of my fave picks!

| 1. | 2. | 3. |

I am currently obsessed with skin care and I love my Clarisonic Skin Care Brush– but now I might just need this to keep that under eye skin nice and pretty- and the Dior… such a great spring/summer color and to just throw in your purse!

| 1. | 2. |

And not Nordstrom related but I had to share this water bottle from Eleventh Avenue because it is the cutest and only $11.50! (affiliate)

| Every Day I’m Hustling Water Bottle |

I hope you are starting to see signs of spring like I am!

This Friday I am sharing a couple of my favorite beauty products!

I also want to introduce a new link and page on the website- Windgate Lane now has an Amazon Store with all of my favorite and frequent buys!  I’m not going to lie to you- if you click and buy through my store I do get a small percentage of the sale… but Momma’s gotta feed two boys, so throw me a bone if you are gonna buy it anyway;)

When you open up my store, on the left hand side you will find different sections- like Health and Beauty, Craft Supplies, Books, Children’s Books, Games and Toys.  I will continually add new favorites, so check back when are looking for new fun things!

Up first…

This will seem ridiculous… but this lip gloss is the best thing I have EVER used… I have ordered another one just because I can’t even stand the thought of being without it.  It’s stupid amazing.  I want to be Oprah and give everyone I see and know one of them!

The Sara Happ Lipslip is what I ordered at the Nordstrom Anniversary sale- but then found it on Amazon for a bit cheaper.

It stays on all day and I even put a bit more on at night and wake up with it still on… it’s crazy I tell you.  And no- I am not being paid to sponsor or endorse this product- I just absolutely LOVE it!

I will no doubt be giving them as presents for sure!

Up second…

This is my favorite brow pencil- Lorac Brow Pencil.

If there is anything I have learned since having children and hitting a few milestones age wise… is that the brows can make a huge difference!  Mine aren’t what they used to be so I give them a little help- once again, not endorsed or being paid… this is just the one that I have found goes on the easiest and looks the most natural! Make sure you select the color that’s right for you though:)

— And not a beauty product- but if you follow me on Facebook and or Instagram @windgatelane- I have shown you this cardigan from Nordstrom several times!

It comes in a ton of colors, not to mention it is available in Petit and Plus sizes and is almost always on sale- it’s so soft and so comfortable… I may have multiple colors… so check it out… and follow along on my social media for sneak peeks and other great deals!

+++++ I am adding an additional LOVE! I have this blanket- scarf from GroopDealz! I already have it in the tan plaid and am currently deciding if I want the Grey plaid or the blue and green plaid… They are awesome- and I’ve even used it to lay over the back of the couch which is super pretty and cozy for winter!

Have a fabulous weekend!

xoxo
