Pretty Fix – The February List

Pretty Fix – The February List

The Pretty Fix is a monthly feature at Get Your Pretty On that features my top five picks for the month that you can shop for on your own to stay in style…all at a price you’ll love. The idea for it was born out of frustration that some of you have had with other monthly box services that you feel “miss the mark” or are too pricey.

Each month, the Pretty Fix includes five affordable items that I personally recommend to stay on trend. This month features pieces to create a cute, casual Valentine’s outfit that’s a little bit French and a wee bit nautical.

Oh and the best part?  This is one of my most budget friendly fixes ever coming in at just under $68 total!

Consider me your budget-minded personal shopper. Here’s your February Pretty Fix.

FEBRUARY PRETTY FIX TOTAL = $67.70

1. Red Lipstick for All – $9

Don’t think red lipstick is for you?  Think again!  L’Oreal Paris has come up with shades of red that are perfect for everyone.  Their Colour Riche Collection of Exclusive Reds includes shades that match up with the coloring of some of our favorite glamorous celebrities like Blake Lively, Julianne Moore, Eva Mendes, Zoe Saldana and Frieda Pinto.  There’s sure to be a shade that works for you too.  (Psst, February is the perfect month to add one to your pout.)

2. Cozy Striped Cardi – $14

I have a cardigan similar to this and am amazed at how it transforms a simple t-shirt and jeans into something special.  Just add bright flats and your outfit is done!  P.S.  The original cardi is now sold out but check out these three options: option one, option two, option three.

3. Cashmere Feel Scarf – $12.90

So soft and warm, this cashmere feel scarf in crimson red is like a Valentine’s Day hug for your neck.

4. Skinny Jeans for a Steal – $7.80

These super cheap skinny jeans from Forever 21 have been a closet staple of mine for many years.  I buy a couple of pairs a year and wear them out.  They wear well, have incredible stretch and actually fit.  Don’t knock them til you try them.

5. Red Flats with a Dash of Leopard – $24

It’s all about the little details and the leopard lining in these flats makes them feel extra special.

JANUARY PRETTY FIX TOTAL = $126.23

1. Work Out Clothes  – $25

I know you’ve heard me gush over Fabletics many times before but I LOVE this brand.  The quality is better than Lululemon and the pieces are every bit as cute.  The best part?  When you sign up, you get a full outfit starting at just $25.  If the idea of a monthly membership scares you, you can skip months as often as you want (that’s what I do).

2. Water Bottle– $12.99

One of my goals is to stay better hydrated and drink more water this year.  If downing plain water isn’t your thing, this bottle with a built in infuser makes it easy to make flavored water.  Some of my favorite combos are cucumber with mint, watermelon with fresh rosemary and strawberries with lemon.

3. Lavender Spray – $8.24

Getting adequate sleep is one of the healthiest things you can do for your body.  If the sandman eludes you, try spritzing your pillow with this relaxing lavender spray before turning in for the night.

4. Athletic Shoes – $80

These Nike Flex Supreme Cross Trainers have been my most comfortable pair of athletic shoes that I’ve owned.  They have just the right amount of cushion and support.  Black and white goes with all of your athletic outfits.

5. Get Pretty, Kick Butt eBook – Free!

My gift to kick off your 2016 right is a free copy of my eBook “Get Pretty, Kick Butt – The Moms’ Guide to Looking Your Best and Getting More Done”.  It’s a super quick read full of ideas for scheduling your day, making yourself a priority and getting more done.  It’s yours to download on Kindle for a limited time for free.

NOVEMBER PRETTY FIX TOTAL = $101

1. Olive Quilted Vest – $25

A quilted vest is a great way to add a layer of warmth when it’s not quite cold enough for a winter coat.  This color is so versatile and acts like a neutral so it plays well with many different colors and patterns.

2. Duck Boots – $30

I saw these in store a couple of weeks ago and fell in love, except I wasn’t loving the $90 price tag.  I found this pair of original duck boots for $60 less online and they are now mine.  The cute plaid lining is so warm and toasty.

3. Cable Knit Sweater – $17

This cozy mustard cable knit sweater pairs perfectly with leggings or skinny jeans.  Finish out the outfit with the duck boots for a warm and comfy casual ensemble.

Pretty Fix:  The October List

Pretty Fix: The October List

Hey pretties!  It’s time for another Pretty Fix but first a quick story behind this month’s inspiration.  Craig and I just got back from a little getaway to Mexico last week.  I had some business meetings there and we tacked on a few extra days for some R&R.  Here’s a pic of us before dinner one night.

As we were walking through the Cancun airport on our way home, Craig spied a colorful Mexican poncho and joked that he was going to buy one.  My first thought was that it could be great for fall – just not on him!

So, of course when I got home, I started researching ponchos to find one for this month’s Pretty Fix.

The Pretty Fix is a monthly feature at Get Your Pretty On that features my top five picks for the month that you can shop for on your own to stay in style at a price you’ll love. The idea for it was born out of frustration that some of you have had with other monthly box services that you feel “miss the mark” or are too pricey.

Each month, the Pretty Fix includes five affordable items that I personally recommend to stay on trend.

Want to know the best part? You can buy everything in the monthly fix for around $100.

Consider me your budget-minded personal shopper. Here’s your October Pretty Fix.

Pretty-Fix-October-2015

OCTOBER PRETTY FIX TOTAL = $96.88

1. Poncho – $16

So it’s not exactly colorful like the Mexican versions but this one is really versatile.  Ponchos and wraps are my favorite way to add a layer of warmth when it’s not quite cold enough for a coat.  If you’re looking for more color, here’s another option.

2. Burgundy Satchel – $29.99

There’s a good reason why a burgundy purse is on the shopping list for the Fall 2015 GYPO Style Challenge.  It looks great with everything!  If burgundy is not your thing, this bag comes in six other colors including red, black, brown, coffee, beige and olive green.

3. Printed Socks – $5

We’re heading into the time of the year where bare ankles need some cozy socks.  Printed pairs are perfect for peeking out above your favorite ankle boots.  This five pack has some great colors/patterns.

4. Gray Jeans – $32

Gray jeans are a neutral that you’re going to love for fall.  Pair them up with Marsala, Pantone’s color of the year to be totally on trend.

5. Berry Lip Gloss – $5.89

If heavy lipsticks aren’t your thing, color your pout with this lightweight translucent gel lip color in this season’s hottest color.
