Birthday Re-Cap!

Hey everyone!! Long time no blog - this is easily the craziest week I have had at work... ever? I was in Atlanta for work with nonstop-meetings since Monday and got back to Charlotte Wednesday night after all day meetings (I DROVE for 4 hours in a torrential downpour & traffic) - AND had an all day conference yesterday! Needless to say - I am VERY exhausted/deadie. I really had SUCH an amazing birthday weekend with my friends and wanted to share with you all! You can always follow me on instagram at: pamelaisanchez to keep up with me whenever I am too busy/crazy to blog!

It all started with a birthday mani.

It's my BIRTHDAY! + my week so far

Well today is my 25th birthday!!! I honestly do not feel 25 in the very least. I have a hard time grasping that I am not 21 anymore - 25 sounds so... ADULT. Well anyways - I am so excited - I have 5 girlies in town this weekend - I have a great weekend planned with my girls and literally cannot wait till 6PM tonight! Work is absolutely crazy and I am so ready to have a fabulous time this weekend!
this greeted me at my office door this morning :)

How I Shop: Rebecca Taylor Sale + Extra 25% off!

My absolute favorite ready-to-wear designer is Rebecca Taylor - HANDS DOWN! I die for her beautiful and feminine clothes! Her stuff is a bit pricey - so I am always on the lookout for her things on sale. Somewhere I usually find very discounted Rebecca Taylor items isOff Fifth Saks 5th Ave - the outlet of Saks. You can usually find designers about 50-70% off there - aka shopping heaven!! However, the Rebecca Taylor site always has some really good sales as well! Right now - she has some great deals going on AND you can use the code RTEXTRA25 for an ADDITIONAL 25% off! I will list prices below without the sale included!


I simply could not resist and ordered these 2 babies for myself! I went the practical route with an LBD - I actually bought the blue dress pictured in black but I must have taken the last one because the black is sold out now! I thought the red flowered print dress would be perfect for my birthday dinner with my family next week.
 Photobucket
1. Strappy Back Dress (also comes in a rose color) - $94

Here are my other picks from the sale! Let me know if you end up buying anything!

Photobucket
2. Faux-Wrap Cami Dress (also comes in a yellow) - $118
4.  Sequin Dress (also comes in a bronze) - $134
6. Corset Gown in Peony (also comes in black and coral) - $190
7. Eyelit Slip Dress in Denim (also comes in a grey) - $158

Don't you love a good deal?

Weekend Re-Cap!

Hello lovely ladies! I feel like I have been such a horrible blogger lately - I recently took on a more prominent position at work and I am literally working non-stop all day (aka no down-time to blog! haha!). I have so many things I want to blog about and share, so I will try to blog at night from now on and dedicate some more blog time :) I still haven't had time to film my June Favorites video but I am planning on doing that after work tomorrow so stay tuned- I have some really great skincare and makeup favorites! As well as some fashion faves. 

Also - I want to share my journey with Crossfit! I started last week and am seriously addicted. It is PRETTY intense. I would not recommend it for those who do not work out on the regular but for those of you who are looking for a challenge and want a change in your workout routine - try this! I will keep you all updated on my progress! :) What I love the most is how friendly everyone is - today was the first day I worked out with the 6:30 class and literally everyone was telling me how good of a job I was doing for my first week. My ass and thighs are KILLING ME! If you want to get more information about crossfit - you can check out their official website - Crossfit

I am also SUPER excited this week because 4 of my lovely best friends plus my 2 sisters are coming into town for my birthday! I am looking forward to a great birthday weekend filled with laughter, champagne, and birthday cake vodka. :) You KNOW there will be plenty a picture after this weekend! And maybe some actual camera pictures and NOT just instagram pics (embarassed...) - these are currently chilling in my fridge in anticipation!

Anyways - I had a really AMAZING weekend home in Atlanta - my sister Natalie had her official big graduation party with all our family and friends - I have been traveling so much and it is not stopping anytime soon. I had just been home last weekend and wasn't in the mood for the 3+ hour drive. Luckily - I found a super cheap ticket to fly home - plus I got to read my book and have some wine! Not to mention the flight was only 45 minutes! (#thatawkwardmoment when my dad liked this picture on instagram...)

Saturday was kind of a primping day for me - I got a Keratin treatment with my mom's hair stylist and he did a variation of it on me with a blow dryer (not a flat iron) b/c I did not want my hair would turn out too flat - I am literally obsessed with the results - I am sitting here with virtually no frizz on my just washed hair!! :) I also got a MUCH NEEDED trim - bye bye split ends. (Stay tuned for a healthy hair haul vlog coming up soon with some new products I ordered! - then it was party time! 

 We had the party at one of our restaurant's in Atlanta. My fellow blogger and amazing friend Donna (also known as Yoga in Heels!!) was able to come and I was so happy to see her!! BTW - my dress is Alice and Olivia (recently purchased from Shopbop)

My week so far via Instagram!

Happy Thursday everyone! Doesn't today feel like a horrible Monday? I hate that July 4th fell in the middle of the week! I hope you all had a great fourth of July! I spent most of the day out on the lake with my friends - I wasn't feeling too well due to the fact that I could BARELY walk bc of Crossfit! That is another story - I went to my first crossfit class on Tuesday morning and DAMN I am still sore! Anyone have any experiences with Crossfit? I am loving it so far - I have my one-on-one fundamentals class tonight and am SO excited1 I love the feeling of a good workout! I have been sticking to just cardio for the past 5 months and it is NOT working for me... I will keep you all updated on my progress :) 

work OOTD from Tuesday & my totally appropriate outfit for fireworks

Weekend Re-cap!

Hello lovely ladies! I hope you all had an amazing weekend. I went home to Atlanta to spend some time with my family and had a great relaxing weekend filled with laughs, a mani/pedi and good wine :) It was definitely a short weekend but a great one at that and of course I had to get some shopping done! (when do I not?) - J. Crew is having an amazing sale at the moment in stores - it was 30% off the sale prices & I also scored some black denim shorts at bebe for 15 dollars! crazy!
