I really like what came in my Birchbox this month - a $25 Madewell coupon (maybe I’ll finally buy something there!), Kate Spade Twirl perfume, Sedu anti-frizz cream, nail polish and some other goodies too.
Thanks again to my TB for giving me the Birchbox subscription!

anonymous asked: I love the Mara Hoffman for Madewell Tiki Bustier bikini that’s going around Tumblr today. Unfortunately it’s way much too expensive for my liking. Any suggestions on a similar but budget-friendly look?
Sure, for reference, here is the Mara Hoffman bikini ($220):
It’s pretty hard to find something with both that unique bustier style and the tiki print, but here are some looks with either a similar style or similar print (and I did find other Mara Hoffman suits for under $100!):
Yes Master Floral Bikini, $62 for both pieces, www.urbanoutfitters.com
Jessica Simpson Pritned Bandeau Swimsuit, $82 for both pieces, www.lordandtaylor.com
