Getting Back To School Ready With Target

Happy Monday SpoiledOnes! 

How was your weekend? Ours was entertaining as always with little Anthony. H-Town Kid is heading into the 1st grade and although we make several trips to Target throughout the year, this one over the weekend was different. Our focus this time was getting back to school ready. He's not ready for summer to be over and although it is bitter sweet,  I am ready for the next step in his educational life aka mommy needs a break. 

He is learning so much, growing so much, has his own energetic and witty attitude. 
Raise your hands if you've ever been to Target for 1 thing and end up walking out spending $100 or more all because the many other item that we all of a sudden need are staring at us whispering "buy me". Thanks, I knew it was not just me. 

We walked in and of course, Anthony was hungry. I'm always up for some popcorn from Target. We sat for 30 minutes, thats how long it took him to eat 2 personal pan pizzas, I people watched, thanking God that I only had one child to get ready for back to school. We have kept up with his "homework" through out the summer so make his transition into 1st grade easier. . 


We headed over to the "School Shop" the Target designated school supplies section where other children and parents were shopping. I am so glad I was not the only one who looked confused while following a list. The color coded end caps made it easy for Anthony to help me shop for his school supplies. He got to pick his 1st grade lunch bag and a very cool Star Wars school box. 



We shopped for about another hour, walking through the boys section, picking out new pieces to add to his wardrobe. He loves to try clothes and I love to see how he suddenly transforms himself to a superstar with his confidence shining after he feels good in a new jacket or t-shirt. It's so cute! 

The Cartwheel app by Target has its extra savings at the store making it easy for us to save simply by downloading the app. Back to school savings will be available on the app until September but trust me, you'll want to keep the app and enjoy the savings year round. This weekend was also tax free weekend in Texas which helped me save even more $. 

Y'all make sure to take advantage of the back to school savings through out the month of August. During the 2nd and 3rd week of August you'll earn a $5 gift card when spending $30, you'll also save 30% off school uniforms and next week kids apparel savings are up to 30%. 

Don't forget to stop by the mommy section and spoil yourself a little too. We deserve that cute little something something :)

OOTD- Houston Chronicle

OOTD- Houston Chronicle
What do you wear when you are unexpectedly asked to be featured in 
The Houston Chronicle printing on Easter Sunday? 

First of all the feeling of being asked is amazing. I was in Miami attending Hispanicize when I received an email from Joy Sewing, the fashion Editor for the Houston Chronicle. She wanted to feature me in her Style Profile which she writes every Sunday. Humbled and thankful, I replied with "of course...."
I had no idea what to wear and honestly I did not know that the article was printing on Easter. What I did know was I wanted to wear something cute that showed my personality and since I love color I knew I wanted something bright. 


I raided my closet with no success (of course) proceeded to several stores and ended up at old faithful; Target. After exploring the isles I found this little ensemble. Paired it with wedge heels from my collection and added a belt and bracelet.

Different knits and styles, metallic detailing, and the mixing of textures like faux leather and tweed are on trend.


Black and white colors are very popular as well. Inject some color into your look by incorporating popular jewel tones – emerald, sapphire and ruby.

There isn’t a time of year when sparkle is more appropriate than during the holidays! Incorporate cool silvers and rich golds, whether it is a metallic dress, cute blazer or metallic scarf with sequin embellishments.

Incorporate key trends such as mixing textures, jewel-tone colors, chic

Add eye-catching accessories, metallic heels and handbags to your shopping list.




Keep your look simple and you can have fun piling on the bling.
