Holiday Gifting with Dicks Sporting Goods!

Holiday Gifting with Dicks Sporting Goods!

Thank you Dicks Sporting Goods for sponsoring this post. All opinions are my own. If you’ve been along for a while you probably remember how sick I was the week before Christmas last year. Not to mention 7 1/2 months pregnant! I still had last minute shopping to do and Dicks Sporting Goods literally saved Christmas! I did the one hour (usually even less) pickup for every person I had left on my list and the wonderful employees at Dicks did my shopping for me. They then brought out everything I purchased and placed it safely in the back of my car. Completely contactless! I am forever grateful I was able to still give my loved ones presents, while also staying safe. You can check out what I scored for myself last year HERE! I am always so impressed with the array of brands Dicks carries. I had been dying to try the CALIA by Carrie Underwood brand and Dicks had a huge selection to choose from. I LOVE every single piece I scored from the line and can’t wait to wear everything all season long. See below for links and sizing details! OUTFIT DETAILS: Shacket– Size XL but could size down for a closer fit. Faux Leather Leggings– Size XL and true to size. Tank– Size XL and true

Black Friday Starts Now with Walmart!

Black Friday Starts Now with Walmart!

Thank you to Walmart for sponsoring this post, all opinions are my own. I hope you’re ready to get your shop on, because Walmart has the deals coming to you even earlier this year! Black Friday has already started and the sales are so good! I wanted to make sure I got all my holiday shopping done extra early this year, and now I can score great deals and cross everyone off my list before we even carve the turkey! This year we decided to get Kai a Nintendo Switch for Christmas, so I couldn’t have been happier to see Walmarts Deals For Days event included a Nintendo Switch, and a Mario game to go along with it. Come Christmas morning we are going to have one happy 5 year old! I also found some other great deals on toys and activities for kids. You can save so much money by shopping the event early. Walmart is a one stop shop for everyone on you list! In addition to having great deals on gifts for the whole family, Walmart also has all the supplies to wrap your gift! I grabbed these boxes and wrapping paper as well has some Christmas decor on my latest order and couldn’t love it more. Shop it below! Happy shopping! -Krychele

Walmart+ Saving Christmas!

Walmart+ Saving Christmas!

Thank you to Walmart for sponsoring this post, all opinions are my own. Getting sick with Christmas only 8 days away was pretty much the last thing I wanted. Luckily my symptoms have been super mild, and I’ve got Walmart+ to come to the rescue while in quarantine! They just added a new benefit, and the timing couldn’t be more perfect. With W+ you get both Walmart+ free shipping with no order minimum on items from Walmart.com (excludes oversized/freight & Marketplace items) & free delivery from your store on orders $35+ (restrictions apply). Other benefits include mobile scan & go, and member prices on fuel. Save 5¢ per gallon at Walmart, & Murphy stations. Plus, access member pricing at Sam’s Club fuel Centers! When it comes to saving money, every little bit counts! Stocking Stuffers: We’ve been taking full advantage of our W+ benefits by getting contactless delivery from our store for everything we need. Last night I ordered the rest of Kai’s stocking stuffers, and they were at my doorstep before he even woke up! It gave me plenty of time to get them hidden to keep the Santa magic alive! Walmart+ is seriously saving Christmas for us this year! Click HERE to sign up for yourself. xx -Krychele

Christmas With Mackenzie Childs

Christmas With Mackenzie Childs

Thank you to Mackenzie Childs for sponsoring this post, all opinions are my own. In October I was able to attend Mackenzie Childs X Salt Lake City virtual workshop and it was so amazing! This was my first real introduction to the brand besides seeing my favorite influencers collect their signature Courtly Check pieces! I instantly fell in love with the heart of Mackenzie Childs and the incredible people and artists behind the brand. I learned so much about the history behind the company, how everything is made and in some cases hand painted! They put so much love and character into every item to make it unique. These are the type of collectables I can see myself passing down to my kids and grandchildren someday! This year I went full glam with my Christmas tree and it adds just the right amount of happiness and cheer to our home! I am obsessed with the Mackenzie Childs Golden Hour line, so most items I incorporated into my decor are from that collection. I love how the sprays add depth and texture to the tree without overdoing it, and the ornaments are just so classic! The pops of courtly check are my favorite little touch. I can’t wait to keep adding to my collection over the years. Thanks for stopping by!

Modern Gypsy Halloween Costume

Modern Gypsy Halloween Costume

Photos: Brittany // Makeup: Talia Whatcott “There is something in October sets the gypsy blood astir: We must rise and follow her, When from every hill of flame She calls, and calls each vagabond by name.”  ― William Bliss I’m so excited to finally show you guys the photos from this fun Halloween shoot! October has always been one of my favorite months of the year, so I have really been taking advantage of all the festivities, including dressing up. I’ve never done a shoot like this before, so I was a little out of my comfort zone, but ended up having the best time. I created most of my modern gypsy costume from items I already had in my closet, but I linked all the accessories I purchased below! Are you guys as blown away as I am by the goodness thats happening on my face up there?! ^^ Cause WHOA! Talia is such an incredible makeup artist and as sweet as can be. She came to my house to create this magic super early in the morning, AND on a Saturday. Seriously, she’s a gem. I showed her a photo of the gypsy makeup look I was going for, and she completely exceeded my expectations. I really can’t say enough amazing things about her. If you need makeup for
