What’s on…your feet?

Today I’m linking up I thought I was linking up with Andrea for her “what’s on…?” series. However, this morning on her blog was about her cute friend Manda and her battle with cancer. My heart aches for Manda and her family. So, I am praying for her.

I still thought today I would post this month what’s on…your feet. How funny, because I posted about what was on my feet all last week!

Monday was the FAV THINGS PARTY where I featured comfy, furry boots and slippers from Target. First up, is wintery shoes.

Check them all because it’s still BUY ONE GET ONE 50% OFF SHOES AT TARGET!!!

Aka…buy THESE (5/5 stars)

And get THESE (4.5/5 stars) and

THESE for $10, you guys!!

(Ps these got 5/5 stars)

I also found these slippers, that you could potentially get for $6.50
WHAT?! Do I need to say that again??? SIX DOLLARS AND FIFTY CENTS!!! These slippers look so perfect for slipping on early morning in the fall and winter. Honestly, i’d probably wear these in the spring and summer too. But i’m just weird like that 😉

Then, my wednesday pin-spired was: booties and bluejeans! So falltch! (get it, instead of so fetch, mean girls reference, anyone?? yeah that was pretty stupid. okay i’ll stop)

By the way, I don’t know why this picture looks so funny, but I wore my booties and bluejeans Saturday to a baby shower.

RUTHIES HERE////// ANYAS HERE ////// MARLEYS HERE ////// MOLLYS HERE

and this just in….ladies and gents….

THIS pair of booties (the nikita) is now on clearance for $20.98 and available for the buy one get one 50% off deal.

GET. TO. SHOPPING. Shoes don’t wait!!!

Now, when i’m working out, these bad boys (ASICS Women’s GEL-Noosa Tri 9 Running Shoe) are on my feet. And I love them, at first they felt weird and I was unsure about them, but we have grown to get along very well and I realized I wasn’t used to all that padding and support in tennis shoes because I always had nike frees and let’s be honest those are just meant for looks.

When i’m hanging out with my girls at the fair/rodeo these Western Bootsare on my feet.

And if you read my PINTERESTed in post back on the 24th you saw about my love for these leopard flats. I’m sorry for the caps below and everywhere, but i’m just SO excited! The flats are

FOR ONLY $12 RIGHT NOW!!!!!!!

 

And the fact that I talked mom into getting herself a pair 🙂
Her specific pair is not online, but the link above is a close match…also on sale!

I took some pics for ya yesterday for what my feet were sportin’ and…that’d be some sandals. It was kind of warm to me yesterday and when I went to yoga in the morning I wanted something that could be easily taken off.

Like so…

And then at Church I had on some leopard flip flops to match my leopard scarf. Hehe, of course!

       

I got my leopard flip flops (I know it is hard to tell) a long time ago, and i’m actually trying to replace them because I use them so dang much, i’m considering this cute pair though!

As I was looking last night, I saw that there is a HUGE SALE going on right now for heels and flats at Target!! And what better timing than fall/before Christmas???

If you don’t need anything for yourself don’t worry about it, do some Christmas shopping friends. Bargains, bargains, bargains!! I could go on, but i’m going to stop because…this is overwhelming. Comment and tell me what you get and what you love!

Happy Monday!

Fav Things Party

All fall favorites under $10, y’all! Linking up with Andrea and Erika!

1. This Essie nail polish.

Actually, you know what. ALL essie nail polish for that matter. This color is just what I put on Saturday and the polish is $8.49 a bottle. I got a light blue for my mom, sister, and I to wear to the beach this past summer. Last week my mom put on a Revlon color and said “I’m throwing all these bottles of Revlon polish away and we’re getting Essie from now on.” This is serious if pack-rat Polly (aka my mother) is wanting to throw something away!!! This stuff stays on so long and it covers REALLY well. This bottle is dark blue/purple/black looking polish and I love it for fall.

2. Ice Sparkling Water

Okay, this is the best drink. The lemon-lime in particular, tastes just like Sprite, so if you’re trying to get away from soda this might be a good way to do it, and there’s carbonation in the drink. I know some people are just addicted to the carbonation. This is $1.00 at Target right now, I saw a special going on. When you’re there getting groceries or shopping, snag one to put in your basket!

3. Target

We already know about my love affair with Target from my PINTERESTed in post, but look.

THESE boots right here are buy one get on 50% off!

So buy these boots here

and get these slippers below for 50% off, making them $10

or these moccasins

IT’S A PARTY IN THE USA!!!

Let me tell you. I’ve had all three pair of these shoes (which recently have come out for fall online at Target) and i’ve worn them so many times that i’m getting another pair because i’m scared they might give out soon. Perfect and cozy for fall!

4. Christian Reading

I haven’t read any of these books yet, but I have heard good things about them, so I will be ordering them and reading them soon. Reading is such a relaxing thing to do when you have some quiet hours.

Smoothies and Slippers: My morning routine

Hi y’all. You’re waking up as me today!

Sometimes my day’s routine changes depending upon what’s planned, but my general routine typically stays the same. For instance, all last week I had to take my brother to football practice at 6:30 while my mom was gone. So I was getting up with the moon to finish packing his lunch, getting him breakfast, waking him up, and getting him there on time. Last week was so off that I had a smoothie before 7. It just felt so strange.

This year I decided to quit staying awake until 2/3am and sleep in super late. I’m going to have to be a working adult some day and that will never fly. So I told myself that I need to get into a better routine, to make that transition soon. But, my “normal” routine goes a little something like this…

6:30 wake up every morning. My most faaaaavorite thing to do is check blogs and post mine, but I usually have my Quiet Time first thing. If I don’t i’ll spend too much time looking at blogs and being rushed during my Quiet Time. And that’s just not what it’s about.

6:40 after my candle is lit, and my slippers are on i’m having my Quiet Time. Now, my family is NOT fond of mornings. Well, my father is, but we’ve already clarified that he’s the weird one. Anyways, we don’t talk in the mornings. It’s like our secret code or something so I don’t go downstairs until i’m ready to leave the house.

I’ll go into detail about my Quiet Time during another post, but most mornings it’s just me, my bed, and my Bible. It’s my transition from sleeping to waking up. Quiet Times first thing in the morning just get your day going on a positive note. See, here’s my Jesus Callingagain, like I mentioned in my Friday Favorites post.

7:10 After about 30 minutes talking with Jesus, i’ll usually get out of bed and hop on over to my “desk” to post my blog and then read some others. I like getting out of bed because it forces me to officially wake up. I make my bed after I get up so I just feel so ready for the day and my room feels clean.

About 7:30, i’ll have to stop blog stalking…so sad. Then I get ready. Even more sad. I just wanna stay in my slippers. My crazy self decided to sign up for an 8am and 8:30am every morning. So, i’m usually the second one out the door every morning after my youngest brother.

7:40 on 3/5 days out of the week I only have one class, so i’m back at the house at 9. I thought it would be a brilliant time to take naps, but I did that once and couldn’t sleep the following night so I quickly vetoed that idea. When I come back at 9 on these days i’ll make my coffee and grab some breakfast. I’ll work on upcoming assignments, run errands, write blogs, do some laundry, etc.

10:00 though…coffee, mom, Hoda & KLG…now that’s a perfect morning. Usually at 11:00 when their show is over we leave to do what we need to.

However, the 2/5 days I get to stay longer in the mornings until 8:10 so I usually spend more time blogging, but because I don’t get to come home at 9:00, I usually make my coffee beforehand and take it with me to wake me up in my first class along with a snack. And I usually don’t get home until about 1:00 on those days. I’ll do as I need to after some lunch.

I’ve never been much of a morning worker-outer because i’m usually half asleep until about 9:00am anyways…but I might try and do my Yoga and Pilates in the wee hours of the morning instead of at night before I go to bed. We will see how that goes 🙂 I’m trying to make myself more of a morning person, because I have found that I get A TON more accomplished during the day with that extra time.

As long as you have something to look forward to in the mornings, you can become a morning person. I look forward to my little routine. I look forward to that extra hour or so of just me time before a day gets going. I look forward to having my blog and Quiet Time checked off my to-do list before classes start. And on days that I can squeeze in a quick Yoga or Pilates session, I look forward to that calmness also. I like that I am really tired at night because it’s easy for me to fall asleep. There are some pro’s to being a morning person.

There ya go! A happy (early) morning! Are you a morning person? What does your morning routine look like? What do you look forward to? Let me know, i’d love to hear!
