Pink Polka Dots

 

Dress- Modcloth
Socks/Vintage boots- Urban Outfitters
 Glasses-Ray Ban Cateye

This  weather is making me wonder if spring is already here! It's BEAUTIFUL out. I'm sorry if I keep bragging about the weather but it really is amazing, how drastic it has been. This week has been all kinds of busy, I am so excited that I get to change positions at work next week. Next Friday will be my last day in the Emergency Room, and I will finally be moving to the pediatric floor to work with the kids more closely. I always love being able to switch it up, because the same thing over and over can be very monotonous...Change is good, and I am happy to embrace it. Do you guys have any plans this weekend? I am excited to get some time with Alex, we have dinner already planned out on Friday at our favorite NYC tapas restaurant. I am already drooling just thinking about it! Anyway, rambling off again, I hope you guys had a good week, and I hope you have fun plans for the weekend!

Ps. Did you guys check out my sponsor post yet? These ladies are the best.

Hello! I'm Laura and I run Montana Snow Vintage and Montana Snow Vintage 2.  
My etsy shops are full with eclectic vintage clothing, accessories and home decor. 


 Hi, I'm Sandi. I'm a full time designer by days, and blogger, Etsy seller and overall crafty chick by nights. I'm a thriftaholic, and lover of all things vintage! My blog is my creative outlet for inspirational, personal collections, art, DIY's and a bit of everyday life. 
Feel free to drop by and say hello!

 Hi, my name is Carmen and I blog over at Cheeky Cheeky! I post a mix of internet loves, life adventures, funny stories, opinionated ramblings, music obsessions and now- shop updates! I just opened Shop Cheeky Cheeky, a little vintage Etsy clothing shop, in December. Stop by and say hi!
Use coupon code: LITTLETREELOVE for 15% off until March, 31st!

My shop contains two items a girl can always use; a cute hair clip and a pair of earrings.  All of my items are made from fresh and also recycled materials. Better to reuse than trash what's salvageable.  I put everything together how I see fit using the same creative outlet I get to use in the salon.

I create plush cuties called Wonder Forest and co-own a pretty shop called Fawn & Flora! In real life, I am a Canadian country-living designer/artist, with a love for interior decorating, makeup, and a spur-of-the-moment passion for DIY projects that bring out my inner handywoman.

The Little Tree Dress!


Details
Dress- ModCloth
Shoes- Jeffrey Campbell
Glasses- RayBan Cateye
Sheer Stocking Socks- TJ Maxx
Pretty sure this dress was made for me! I saw it and knew I had to have it. Obviously I love the little trees on it, but I also love the peter pan collar and the rounded buttons, it's pretty much my new favorite (I think I say that for every dress I own). My outfit posts haven't been as often these past few weeks because it seems like there was so much going on, between being sick & having a million things to do, it has been hard to keep up! I am happy to say that I finally feel better! It was my first day back at the gym, and that makes me so happy. I definitely think working out is necessary, it's my way of relaxing, and feeling great each and every day. Time seems to be flying by this year, can't really believe it's already middle of February, and pretty soon Txsc will be here. I am so excited to visit Austin, and meet so many online friends from blogging. I really can't wait. Will any of you be there? If so, leave a comment and let me know. Anyway, it's off to work for me, sorry for rambling on...Hope you all had a beautiful weekend and happy Monday!

Sponsor Spotlight // Cheeky Cheeky


Tell us a little bit about yourself?

Hi! My name is Carmen and I run a little blog called Cheeky Cheeky as well as an Etsy shop, Shop Cheeky Cheeky! I'm a 23-year-old student, blogger, Etsy shop owner and My Little Pony enthusiast. 

How did your blog & shop get started?

I started Cheeky Cheeky after I decided to quit my job and move from New York City back to Ohio this past Summer. Leaving New York gave me the time and space to start writing more, which I love. I try to write things I like to read- funny stories, advice, fashion bits, life adventures, and now- shop updates! My blog has introduced me to so many amazing people who actually enjoy reading my ramblings, and I'm so thankful for them. 

I launched Shop Cheeky Cheeky with my dear friend Megan two months ago and I'm so happy about it. It is a little Etsy vintage shop with lots of dresses, accessories & all around cuteness. It's the most exciting thing I've ever done and I'm so stoked to document it all on my blog!  


What inspires you the most?

In my blogging, I would say funny ladies like Sloane Crosley, Mindy Kaling and Sophia Rossi are HUGE inspirations for me. In terms of my shop, I'm totally inspired by 60s and 70s style icons like Bridget Bardot, Bianca Jagger... And of course, Rachel Zoe :)



What advice do you have for anyone who is looking to open up their own etsy or online shop?

My biggest piece of advice would be to just do it! (Yes, technically I'm quoting a Nike ad on that one.) Seriously though, stop putting it off and launch already! Getting going is the hardest part of starting an online shop, but once you do, you'll be happy you did. It's so much fun! 



What are your future goals & plans, where do you want to be in 5+ years?

My parents keep asking me this question and I haven't had a good answer since I was in high school and I could say "umm... in college?" Being an adult is hard!! As of right now, I would say that in 5 years I'd like to be continuing blogging, doing some freelance writing, running Shop Cheeky Cheeky and maybe even getting a storefront. Fingers crossed! Stop by my blog and say hi!

Carmen is also providing a coupon code
 for Little Tree readers until the end of March!

LuLu*s Event -- NYFW




Lauren doing Lauren's nails :)



Here are some photos from the Lulu's event last weekend. After the longest day ever I still went into the city, and tried to force it. Unfortunately I was feeling absolutely horrible, and couldn't fully enjoy the event this night,  which is definitely a bummer. BUT, you can't control these things, and I am still very happy I went, even though I couldn't stick it out the whole time. Did you guys go to the event? What was your favorite part?
