WIWW: Rocksbox + A Free Month For You! + Link Up

Wednesday, May 20, 2015











I have never been one to wear a lot of jewelry. I have my daily rings and my go-to earrings, but everything is pretty simple.

I am also cheap and refuse to spend a lot on jewelry when I know I always end up wearing my old faithfuls. That leads me to Rocksbox.

With Rocksbox I can get designer (hello, gorjana and Kendra!!) jewelry of my choosing sent straight to my door. For $19 a month you can borrow three pieces at a time and wear them, buy them, or swap them out at anytime for three new goodies!

This subscription is perfect for someone like me who likes the trendy pieces, but can't stand the thought of paying for jewelry when I know I might not like the piece in a couple months, or wear it that often!

With the code tuckerupxoxo YOU can get one month free of Rocksbox and try it out yourself! What do you have to lose?! The code does not expire, so when you decide you're ready, just come back here and get in on the fun!

Now for the link up!

- All I ask is you link back to my blog and link to a specific post.

- Write about something fashion related!

- Instagram @SarahTuckerUp and use #TuckerUpWIWW to share your outfits

What's in my bag || The truth

Tuesday, May 19, 2015

I love seeing what other people have in their bags. Sometimes I think, "Who the heck thinks they need to have (fill in the blank) in their purse?!" while other times I think, "I need to carry one of those (fill in the blank) with me." Either way, it is always interesting to see what is behind the walls of a purse.

If you're my husband, you call my purse "the black hole" and if you were my purse, you would hate me. My purse is synonymous with: Sarah's trashcan, Sarah's place for everything, Sarah's suitcase, etc.

So, because I'm not good at faking anything, I'll just be real and show you exactly what's in my purse. Sometimes I think it is a relief to know that someone else in the world had 87 receipts, four wads of chewed gum in the wrapper, and a billion other random things in their purse....and they don't even have kids yet. Yikes.






Starting on the far left with the long silver pen looking thing, also know as a tire pressure gauge. Chris just said, "I don't know why you have that in your purse and not in your car..." I agree. I have no idea why it is in my purse. 

Moving clockwise, that is my stack of receipts. Every time we go somewhere and get a receipt I just shove it in my purse. 

I won't name everything, but you can see (still going clockwise) that I have two journals, a pink notepad, and pink and white striped note-cards...because I like to write a lot? No clue. I have the brochure from my dermatologist appointment and my blog business cards. As you look right we have trash and extra napkins, as well as floss and box-tops because, you know, I have to help my school! 

Scattered in there you can spot my passport picture (or my mug shot, you'll never know...totally kidding!), lotion, a pack of gum and an empty pack of gum, my wallet, pens, a nail file, toothpicks (because floss doesn't cut it?), hair-ties, medicine, a mirror, church notes, mints, gift cards, chap-stick, and, finally, business cards from random people. 

Now, please make me feel better and tell me your bag looks the same? Or at least lie to me so I have help convincing my husband I'm not the only woman with a purse like this!

A Blogger Meetup

Monday, May 18, 2015

 

Blogging is weird because you know a lot of people who you really don't know. Does that make sense? I've read Sarah's blog for years now and she was in town this weekend, so we finally got to meet in person. We went to brunch on Saturday with our husbands and it was just as great as I imagined!! If Sarah and I lived in the same town I'm sure we would be the best of friends! Chris and I are already looking up flight to Cincy so we can go visit them (and Floyd!) and watch a Reds game.


Backing it up to Friday night when we ordered Domino's and then went on a Sonic date for ice cream. I have no idea how it started, but every time we go to Sonic we call it a "Sonic date." Half price shakes after 8 p.m. meant one thing: we were already in our pj's, hence the yawning and me look quite rough. 


Hopping back to Saturday...

Chris and I stopped at At Home on our way back from brunch with Sarah. We had herd great things about this store and it lived up to our expectations. We went in for one thing, and left with that certain thing that I hope to reveal later this week! And, of course, Chris had to act his age as he walked through the isles. 


The rest of the weekend was spent shopping and doing yard work. We have strawberries! We planted them about a month ago and this was our third one to pick and eat.

Sunday started off with church and then a grocery trip. We cleaned and then were lazy until we invited Chris's family over for BBQ.

Monday is here and we are so close to summer I can taste it!
