Outfit REPEAT. Loving this hi-lo dress, love how you can dress it down and up!

Shop Now: Saks Friends & Family Sale

Is it like amazing sales month? I honestly have never seen as many sales and good deals than the past 2 weeks! I am proud of myself for not ordering a single thing (yet...) from the latest amazing deal - Saks Fifth Avenue Friends & Family event - 20% off most items (designer restrictions apply of course) - but they have such a great selection of great things to buy if you are in the shopping mood and who doesn't want to get a good deal? Here are my picks for the sale! (all items listed below are eligible for the sale)

Saks Fifth Avenue

Use code FRIENDS for 20% off your order

I do not know what it is lately with my pink obsession! My sister Natalie is the one who is usually labeled as the girl who always wears pink, but I am just LOVING it lately! Such a fun, pretty and girly color! The Marc bag is so fun and the crossover makes it such a versatile bag. The Tory Burch bag is perfect for work or traveling.

1. Marc by Marc Jacobs Ukita Satchel in Pink - $428

2. Tory Burch Roselyn Striped Canvas Tote Bag in Orchid Pink - $395

I have been shoe obsessed lately aka all my life.. and these two pairs are so perfect! The Tory wedge is perfect for work during the spring and summer and the Rachel Zoe heel is the perfect going-out shoe - imagine that baby paired with a romper or simply skinny jeans? PERFECTION.

1. Tory Burch Amanda Burlap Logo Wedge Pumps in Natural - $295

2. Rachel Zoe Beau Leather Slingback Platform Sandals in Nut - $375

I am also really loving the high-low dress trend as well as the maxi dress. I love how flirty and comfy these pieces are and that you can wear them day & night. 

1. Parker Ruffled Strapless Dress in Purple - $286

2. Joie Ruffle Dress in Gypsy Red - $208

Now for the more practical buys - when a sale like this comes along, it is always a great idea to stock up on some great basic and timeless pieces that you will wear for years. I own this MK watch in the rose gold and wear it every day - I love the silver one as well! The Marc rose gold bracelet is gorgeous and is perfect for the arm candy trend that is happening as well :) 

1. Michael Kors Swarovski Crystal Accented Multi-Funtion Watch in Silver - $225

2. Marc by Marc Jacobs Katie Turnlock Bracelet in Rose Gold - $128

I hope you all had a great weekend - I had a wonderful weekend with my mom and sister! I have lots of pics to share! I also have been shopping up a storm (OOPS!!) - I will film a haul video hopefully this week (waiting on some packages from shopbop, etsy, shoemint, and tobi!). 

Boring stuff first - I have been cardioing every single day for at least 45 min and have been switching it up between eliptical at high incline and this amazing interval training workout on the treadmill

How I Shop: Shopbop Code

I think you know you have a problem when you are checking your email inbox in the morning and all of a sudden your heart stops and you start hyperventilating at this headline:



If you are addicted to shopbop like many of us, you know this only happens VERY RARELY! Use code: INTHEFAMILY20 for 20% off your order until tomorrow midnight!

I immediately knew what I was going to get - I have been eying this baby for like over 2 months - at $365 - I just felt it was too much for a smaller bag even though I knew I would use it a lot - but minus 20% off and I took the plunge!

Tory Burch Robinson Mini Bag



I am going through a serious camel color loving stage but it is just the perfect color for every season so I know I will use the bag for a very long time! Quality over quantity?

This code is a great way to stock up on some basics or something fun as well. If I wasn't saving for a trip, I would have gotten one of the following but I am controlling myself!


1. Free People "Best of Both Worlds" Shirt in Mint Julep $118 /// 2. Elizabeth and James Marissa Dress in Off White $665 /// 3. House of Harlow Pyramid Pave Wrap Cuff $125 /// 4. Parker Chain Sequin Dress in Taupe $352 /// 5. Tory Burch Sophie Wedge Pumps in Royal Tan $295 /// 6. Rebecca Minkoff Mini Mac bag in Neon Pink $195 /// 7. Gorjana Parker Leather Wrap Bracelet $49 /// 8. Tory Burch Logo Sunglasses in Turtoise $149

What are you guys buying?

Weekend Pictures :)

Happy Monday loves! I hope you all had a wonderful weekend. Mine was VERY chill - as I mentioned last week, I am on a no-drinking policy until Vegas! (I did have a glass of wine on Saturday night though - oops!) I do not know if I am the only one but I just do not like to go out to bars and be surrounded by drunk ass fools when I am sober. So apart from laying off the alcohol calories, I am also saving money from not going out! Friday night, I headed over to my friend Heather's house and we all made dinner (I made quinoa!) and then I dropped them off at the club and drove home (sobriety is BORING!). Saturday, my mom and I had a SUPER productive day running errands and looking at prospective apartments for me come July! Yeayyy! We got pedicures at night and then I made us salad and tilapia for dinner!

Hi, my name is Pamela and I have a serious addiction to Starbucks Iced Americanos! (Help?)


May is going to be absolutely INSANE. My calendar is already full and I just found out today I am also going on a work trip to NYC in the middle of May! So exciting!


loose waves on Friday


my mom bought me these books for inspiration. Been thinking so much about what I am meant to do with my life and I know that fashion is something I have to pursue!


Yesterday, I had a great workout and then laid out at the pool with my friends for like an hour because it was already late - then I went to dinner at Brio with my mom - we ate outside on their patio - so relaxing! I ordered the grilled grouper with artichokes, zucchini and spinach - so amazing! (It came with sauce and potatoes but I asked the waiter to skip these) - I am loving fish lately!


my love/hate relationship with my parents dog - chloe


I picked up these Lauren Conrad platforms at Khol's last week and I am LOVING them!


Made my first Shoemint purchase! Will review once I receive! Had a 20% off code and thought these would be perfect for walking around Las Vegas!


Hope you all have a great week!

Eating Healthy at Restaurants

We have all been there. We are being so strict on our diet and that one invitation to go to dinner arises. Even though it is definitely not as healthy as eating at home (where you have the power to control portions, salt, fat) - you can still be smart about the things you choose. My former nutritionist/trainer was always stressing about the importance of eating at home but come on - we all have social lives and going out to dinner is something that we all do! Hell, I come from a family of restauranteurs! It is always good to treat yourself every now and then


anyone? haha!

But - when you are working on being extremely healthy - you do not want your diet to interfere with your social life! Some of the things I like to order at restaurants are the following:

- grilled chicken
- grilled fish
- sashimi (I am a sucker for sushi)
- grilled salmon or grilled chicken salads (just make sure you choose a light dressing - no creamy dressings ever)
- steamed veggies (broccoli, asparagus, zucchini, squash)
- Brown rice sushi (if they offer it and usually for lunch)
- Some good appetizers to order are ahi tuna tartares and shrimp cocktails

Most restaurants offer a variety of items on their menu, but sometimes it is hard to control ourselves especially if the other people in our party are going balls to the wall ordering nachos, fries, and buffalo wings. It is better to let your party know that you are on a diet and that you are eating healthy - most of the time they feel bad (haha!) and end up ordering healthier than they would. But if not, having 1 buffalo wing or a couple of nachos is not going to kill you. Most of the time, we just want the taste. Who feels good after eating a bunch of shitty junk food anyway? NO ONE. I was just talking to my coworker Dani the other day about how good you feel after eating healthy!

Here are a couple of things I had this week when I went out to lunch and dinner respectively

Lunch at Zoe's Kitchen on Monday - Greek Salad with grilled salmon
You should def try this place out for healthy lunches! They have a lot of locations
Zoe's Kitchen


After a work event on Tuesday, I headed to sushi with my coworker - I ordered the tuna and avocado sashimi salad - so yummy! I also ordered a side of salmon sashimi


Last night, I went to Bonefish Grille and forgot to snap a pic of my entree but I ordered the grilled tilapia with steamed veggies - so yummy! Def check this place out if you have not - great food!
Bonefish Grille

I hope you guys found this helpful - I know how hard it is the make the right decisions when eating at restaurants but it is totally doable.

Happy Thursday - tomorrow is Friday yay!

Happy Monday! Weekend Pics

Happy Monday everyone! There is something about beautiful spring mornings that make getting up and facing the office just a LITTLE bit easier. Weather is just absolutely gorgeous here. I hope you all had a great weekend! I spent mine in Atlanta celebrating my cousin's birthday and had a great time. In other news - Vegas is in 22 days and I am freaking out!!! That means I have 22 more workouts (hopefully) before then and 22 days of NO DRINKING. Can I do it? YES I CAN!

my cousin and I got blowouts at the blow dry bar in Atl before the festivities! free champie? yes.

Happy Monday everyone! I hope you all had a lovely weekend. I had a very relaxing and chill weekend with my family in GA. My twitter was hacked last night by the person who stole my phone so I am sorry if you had to see any of the tweets this ghetto man made!
