OOTD: Ellie Review + 40% Off!!!

5 Apr

Since January, I’ve been going to a nearby power yoga studio three times a week and the physical and mental transformation I’ve experienced has been amazing! However, one thing I didn’t anticipate was how hard it would be to find workout clothes that were stylish, effective, and affordable. When Ellie offered to send me a workout outfit to review for being a Sumpto influencer, I couldn’t resist! One look at the website and I was obsessed. I sported the Raven Capri and Pitch Perfect Keyhole Tank to yoga class this week and I loved the extra length on the top to keep my tummy from showing, plus the built-in bra was perfect!

Ellie Workout Clothing Review by Love a la mode

One really cool thing about Ellie is that it functions as both a typical online apparel store and a monthly subscription service. You can either purchase merchandise like normal, or for $49.95 per month you can select two clothing items with free shipping and no-hassle returns. Plus, you can cancel at any time! I think this new site is a great alternative to other existing options because I love the combination of fashion and affordability without sacrificing quality. Want to try Ellie out for yourself and get up to 40% off your first purchase? Sign up for Sumpto deals for free and claim your reward for up to 40% off today! This deal will only be available until 4/7/13 so hurry and try Ellie and Sumpto out for yourself!

Marchesa for JCP!

26 Feb

I love all these high end designer/department store collabs, and the new Georgina Chapman “Pearl” line for JCPenny does not disappoint! Georgina Chapman is the face behind haute couture line Marchesa, and also the wife of Harvey Weinstein (you know, the one who produced Silver Linings Playbook.) With almost all of the capsule collection priced under $200, this is the perfect place to find a sweet cocktail dress for that upcoming wedding or formal! Here are my top picks from the release:

These lace scalloped shorts are just $50!

This adorable LBD is business in the front but party in the back with a deep V and even a bow! $70.

I love this delicate pink number with the statement-making one shoulder rosettes. This would be a perfect choice for a spring wedding! $70.

I’m loving the retro vibe of this cap-sleeve number. Conservative and edgy all at once! $110.

And last but certainly not least, I’m loving this long organza dress. I have no idea what sort of occassion it’s appropriate for, but the delicate rosettes are darling! $250.

Will you be shopping the Georgina Chapman Pearl for JCP line? What are your favorite pieces? Are you excited about any of the other great designer collabs going on right now?

Review + $100 FREE: Little Black Bag

4 Feb

Because I have been identified as an influential college student by Sumpto, I was selected to try Little Black Bag for free. I was not obligated in any way to write a review on my blog, but I loved it so much and was so impressed that I knew I had to share this amazing website with all of you! So what is Little Black Bag? It’s a kind of flash sale site (with a monthly subscription option too!) that features current season bags from designer brands like BCBGeneration and Badgley Mischka to Deux Lux and Steve Madden at up to 70% off retail. They also carry designer jewelry, beauty products, and home goods as well! The fun part is that after you select the item you want to buy, a personal stylist will select bonus merchandise between $25-$75 in value from the site to include with your purchase .

LBB

Your bonus items are revealed to you online as soon as the purchase is complete, and you have several days to decide whether you want to keep the items or swap them with other users on the site. I initially purchased the Izzy + Ali Michelle Bucket Bag and was gifted the Geranium Bambi Stud Earrings and the Jardin Oval Ring, but through a series of trades ended up swapping my items for the Olivia + Joy Dynamo Double Handle Satchel and the Flea Market Girl Peace Sign Necklace. New items are added to the site almost every day, so each night I would check back to see if I wanted to swap for a new item that I loved more. I am obsessed with the two things I ended up with and loved using Little Black Bag!

Want to try it out for yourself and get a special code for up to $100 in bonus merchandise? All you have to do is sign up with Sumpto. It’s easy and free, and you’ll have access to this deal until Feb. 10! Here are a few other bags I’m currently loving from Little Black Bag:

Koret Snake Charmer tote, originally $135.

Pink Cosmo Studded Satchel, originally $70.

Penny Sue Foldable Florence Tote, originally $89.

What are your favorite items on Little Black Bag right now? Have you ever tried the site? I’d love to hear your thoughts!

Save or Splurge: Timex for J.Crew and Target!

11 Dec

P.S. Don’t forget to enter my awesome Pea Pod Paper & Gifts Giveaway this week!!!

I am loving the retro look of the Timex for J.Crew collaboration, but at the $150 – $195 price point, they’re a little hefty for something that I don’t want to wear all the time. Luckily, this season there is also a fabulous Timex capsule collection for Target called Mix it, Switch it, Love it that is way more in line for ladies on a budget! Compare the two lines below and share your opinion in the comments: would you save or splurge on this one??

Timex for J.Crew Vintage Field Army Watch, $150.

Timex for Target Weekender Slip Through Watch in Olive, $34.99. (P.S. the straps are changeable and only cost $6.99 each!)

 

Timex for J.Crew 1600 Watch, $195.

Timex Round Case Watch, $39.99. (P.S. this version also has changeable straps which are just $9.99 each!)

It’s really interesting to see how the collections are so similar. I love that Timex does different collaborations for people with varying budgets. What are your favorite pieces from the collections? Would you spend or save on these?
