Shopbop Friends and Family Sale

Since I moved to Oklahoma four years ago (wow, time flies), I have almost exclusively shopped online. While we have some decent shopping here, it just seems like I am able to snag what I want online and it is just such a breeze. And so many lovely stores offer free shipping. But my favorite spot is by far Shopbop. Shopbop marries a wonderful collection of unique clothes and staples with exquisite customer service and free shipping. For my birthday and Christmas, I am able to create wish lists and my family knows to head there for ideas they know I’d love. Well, now that I have gushed about my #1 spot for online shopping, I wanted to share that their Friends and Family sale starts tomorrow and runs for three days (a sneak peek starts today for those of you who have shopped there before). Get 25% off with code INTHEFAM. As a favor, if you head over to shop, help support the blog and click this link: Shopbop. And if you need some inspiration, here are some of my recent favorites from Shopbop:

Wednesday On The Web

Fellow historical fiction fans: I am devouring my current read about Richard III.

We just got a Trader Joe’s here in Tulsa and I’ve already been three times. Missed TJs so much from my California days. I hadn’t visited one in forever, so I loved these insider tips on what to buy from the ultimate insiders: employees.

Best beauty buys at Whole Foods.

Inspiration via a couple who made the ultimate road trip over 26 years.

I am so glad I invested in these sweats – kind of expensive but so soft and made in the USA.

Wednesdays On The Web

With the finale of The Bachelor on Monday and my political junkie eyes glued to the TV last night for the results of Super Tuesday 2.0, I haven’t had time to get anything up here this week! I’ll be back later in the week with some more skin care goodness. In the meantime, some finds from around the web:

In true “fly-over state” fashion, I am behind on the trends. Next time I am out, I’ll order one of my favorites from Italy: The Negroni.

I am going to work on embracing these tips for boosting a sluggish metabolism.

I ordered this face cream and it really is helping with my redness. You can’t but help love the quirky, retro packaging.

While I am not a parent, I found these Global Parenting Habits fascinating.

A particularly fabulous installment of one of my favorite columns.
