Saturday Deals: Best Tunic Sweaters All Under $100

Happy Saturday! What is it about cozy tunic sweaters that you just can't have enough of? Each year I think I buy more tunic sweaters than anything else. They're cute, they keep you super warm and they're easy to style with jeans, leggings, skirts, you name it! This time of year tunic sweaters usually go on sale, so I rounded up a few of my favorites all under $100. 

Where You Need To Shop This Cyber Monday

Cyber Monday is here! Who's been up since 4am shopping?! Ha! Normally I get up a little earlier than usual to shop but this year since I stayed up late last night looking for all the right deals, I slept in! 

I've rounded up all my favorite sales going on and will be updating these throughout the day. Some of my favorites are Amazon (50% off lots of women's fashion and electronics), LOFT (50% off your entire order) and Macy's (20% off almost everything). They're listed in order by retailer so you can just search for which retailer you want to shop and click on the link. I also included some items in the widgets that I'm personally loving! I hope you find this list helpful. Happy shopping! 

Monday Deals - Work Dresses and Casual Items

Good Morning and happy Monday! How was your weekend? We spend this weekend in northwest Iowa celebrating an early Thanksgiving with Nate's family. It's always fun seeing his family, especially his young nephews and niece! I found out that winning a game of Connect-4 against 7-8 year olds is actually very difficult! I won maybe one game... looks like I need to brush up on my board game skills before Christmas in a few weeks! 

As we're gearing up for Black Friday this week, I'll put together a Black Friday guide that will help maneuver you through Black Friday and Cyber Monday so you can get the best deals. Do you shop in store on Black Friday or do you do most of your shopping online? I plan to have that up on Wednesday, but I'll still do Daily Deals each day to keep you posted on specific items that just went on sale or items that I think are a must-buy!

Have a great day and thanks for reading. 

Saturday Deals - Cozy Finds on Sale

Happy Saturday from wintery northwest Iowa! We woke up to an ice storm this morning, and all the trees and plants look so pretty. Can't say the same for the roads though! Luckily for us, we don't have to go anywhere today so we're good to celebrate Thanksgiving early and watch big college football games today. 

I found a few items on sale this morning that I think you might be interested in. This sweater is only $6.59 and this blazer is my favorite (I have it in fuchsia and robin's egg blue) and on sale for $49. I'll also list a few sales going on this weekend in case you're looking to get some Black Friday shopping done early. There are so many good sales happening right before the holidays! I typically try to get a lot of online shopping done before Black Friday so that I'm not having to fight lines in store or low inventory online. 

Have a great day babes! See you on Monday.

Friday Deals - Casual Outfit Inspiration All Under $100

Good Morning and Happy Friday! What are all your weekend plans? This weekend I'm headed up north to visit Nate's family for an early Thanksgiving celebration. We're keeping things casual, so I thought I'd put together some ideas for casual outfits, perfect for weekend plans or running errands. 

I've been looking for a suede moto jacket and my co-worker recommended this one. I love the deep teal color, and there are plenty of sizes and fits still available. I love that so many retailers are making tall and petite sizing more of a regular thing! Most of the time I wear regular sizing but at times I need a petite option, so I love it when stores carry different options to help with getting the right fit. 

Have a great weekend and thanks so much for reading. 

Thursday Deals - Oversized Sweaters You'll Want to Wear for Thanksgiving all Under $50

Good Morning and happy Thursday! I posted some thanksgiving outfit ideas yesterday, and I found a ton more sweaters this morning that I had to share. Each sweater is under $50 and some have additional promo codes to add to them. This sweater I actually shared yesterday in a solid color but I love the striped version too. It's on sale for an additional 50% off making this sweater only $29.99. Such a steal! I'm also obsessed with this embellished sweater... I actually bought this myself for Thanksgiving. If you add the promo code WARMTH you'll receive an additional 40% off making this sweater only $23.99! 

I hope you have a great day! See you tomorrow.  

Wednesday Deals - Thanksgiving Outfit Ideas All on Sale

Thanksgiving is just around the corner and I'm starting to stock up on some comfy sweaters, jeans and leggings! What are your plans for thanksgiving? We're celebrating Thanksgiving with Nate's family in northwest Iowa this weekend and next weekend we'll be in Kansas City with my family. I can't wait! Since I'm eating two big meals, I've decided to find lots of oversized sweaters and stretchy jeans to make sure I'm still comfortable after eating :) This sweater is on sale and there's a few sizes left in this gorgeous maroon color! I also own these high-waisted jeans and they have a good amount of stretch in them and they're only $25! 

Have a great day! Thanks for reading. 

Tuesday Deals: 30% off with code READYTOPARTY

Good morning! Today I found a really good sale, so I'll get right into it! This retailer is taking 30% off full priced inventory with code READYTOPARTY. They just came out with a bunch of great items for holiday parties and special occasion wear. Each Christmas I end up wearing a piece from this retailer because they're so beautiful and I feel amazing in them! The quality is hard to beat too. I'm especially loving this sweater that's under $60. 

Have a great day! Thanks for reading. 

Monday Deals - New Inventory and 40% Off LOFT

Happy Monday! How was everyone's weekend? Last night we did a mini Christmas cooking trial with my parents. On Christmas Day, my parents have my entire family over for a prime rib dinner. Well last night my parents realized they had another small prime rib waaaaay in the back of their freezer that needed to be cooked... so we did that last night! It was delicious, however I need to hit the gym a few times this week! Ha!

Many stores came out with new inventory this morning, and there's one sale in particular that I think is really good. LOFT is still doing their 40% off sale with code WORKIT. I love this blouse with the peplum detail and I definitely think I'll be heading in store to check out all their new arrivals too. I've never done a try-on session for insta-stories, but I might start doing those. What do you think? Are they helpful? Or just annoying? 

I hope you all have a wonderful start to your week. Take care and see you tomorrow!  

Friday Deals - Nordstrom 40% Fall Inventory

TGIF Friends! With everything going on this week - elections, snowy conditions - it kinda felt like we'd never make it to Friday! What are all your plans this weekend? We don't have much going on - I'm hoping to get some Christmas decorations up and maybe even help my mom with her tree! 

Nordstrom is taking 40% off their fall inventory, so I rounded up a few items that I'm loving. Lots of their sweaters and boots are on sale. I especially love these boots. They're a little bit of a splurge, but they're 40% off and would be a good staple iten. I personally own a few items of this brand and the quality is impeccable. They last a few seasons at least. 

Have a great weekend! Thanks for reading. 

Wednesday Deals

Any one else exhausted from watching election results last night?! It was "too close to call" for our Governor's race until about midnight last night so I stayed up to see who won. Regardless of the outcomes, I love the passion and excitement around election time - seeing so many people vote for people and causes they believe in is inspiring and exciting! 

Ok on to today's deals! I'm noticing a lot of you are favoring cozy sweaters so I put a few more in today's lineup, and there's quite a few that are a great value. I've never seen sweaters from this retailer at such a steal. I love this retailer because their quality is hard to beat and their sweaters make great gifts for the holidays. This sweater is at a great price point, would be a fabulous work staple and comes in 8 different colors.

Also this sweater I just recently purchased and got it in the mail yesterday! The material is so soft.... it feels like butter! Maybe i'll try it on tonight for my Instagram stories. Definitely recommend, and it's only $14.99!  

Alright, on to my second cup of coffee :) Have a great day! 

Tuesday Deals all under $100

Good Morning! There are a lot of good sales this morning that I'm already taking advantage of - Loft had another mark-down of all their regular priced items.  A lot of their items are marked down an extra 40%-50% at checkout (yay!). I personally already own the double breasted blazer that's currently on sale and it's a must for anyone working in a professional setting. It's very comfortable with just a little bit of stretch, but it holds its shape well and looks great with pants, skirts, you name it! 

On another note - if all the political ads didn't give it away, today is finally Election Day! Make sure to get out there and VOTE for whatever cause you feel strongly about. Did you know your employer is required by law to allow you 3 hours to vote? I voted absentee this year so I won't be going to the polls today, but I'm excited to watch the results all day!

Have a great Tuesday and thanks for reading!

Monday Deals All Under $75

Good Monday Morning! How was everyone's weekend? It's been a little chilly and rainy here, so I started my Christmas shopping early this weekend! I think we decided to put up the Christmas decorations this week and I can't complain. I love the Christmas season! Do you wait until after Thanksgiving to put up your decorations? Or do you start early too? 

Here are a few Monday sales going on today - now that it's officially the "holiday season", I think I'll post a few items that I'm loving each morning to get some ideas going. I love finding things on sale (who doesn't?!) so I'll probably post a few things each morning that I'm loving, and maybe a few gift ideas as we get closer to the holidays too! Be sure to check out my Instagram page @libby_glaser to get a sneak peak of what I'll be posting each morning in my stories!

Have a great day! Thanks for stopping by.

Over-the-knee...

Cardigan: old, very similar & love this under $50 option  | Denim: Paige | Boots: Franco Sarto (under $100!!!!!!) | Bag: Tory Burch | Sunnies: Nasty Gal (sold out), exact version for $22 here | Watch: JORD c/o | Bracelet: Alex & Ani | Lipstick: MAC - Up the Amp

I could list a thousand different things I love about over-the-knee (OTK) boots. Seriously you guys, wearing OTK boots is such an easy way to add a bold statement to your look. First off, lazy girl fashion tip: when all your leggings are in the hamper, put on your favorite workout crops with some OTK boots and BAM! You have yourself some long and lean legs thanks to your sexy boots, and no one will even know you're wearing workout crops. Speaking of sexy, OTK boots will add just the right amount of spice to your Friday night outfit! I love wearing mine with leggings and jeans, and they can even look great with flirty skirts if done right (not going to lie, still trying to achieve that look "done right" :/). These boots from Franco Sarto are from last season, but I found them at Nordstrom Rack for under $100 - that's the cheapest, cute option I've found in stores this season!

Also, I'm loving this marled sweater - it's so lightweight and adds just the right amount of sophistication. I love how it drapes in front and isn't too slouchy. It would be adorable with a button down shirt or nice silk cami at the office! Mine is super old, but I found two very similar options and one is under$50!

Hope you're all having a great day! My mom came into town last night, so we had a fun night catching up and eating pasta! So worth the necessary spin class tomorrow morning! :)

Dressed Up Flannel...

Dress: TJ Maxx, similar here & here (love this option!) | Pumps: BCBGeneration (on sale!) | Bag: vintage Marc Jacobs, similar under $60 | Sunnies: Ray-Ban | Earrings: Chloe + Isabel c/o | Watch: Michael Kors | Lips: Liner - MAC Cherry, Lipstick - MAC Rebel

When Monday morning rolls around, all I want to do is wake up, go to spin, come back home and crawl back into my flannel pjs... can we all relate? There's something about Mondays that make me instantly tired no matter how lazy I was watching Netflix and eating popcorn in bed the day before. Sometimes I wish I could just wear my PJs to work and somehow that would make my Monday's 20 times more bearable...

Insert flannel shirt dress here.

When I'm working, I need to feel comfortable but also put together so that I don't feel like a total slob-kabob while running to meetings! That's why I'm a little obsessed with flannel shirt dresses as of late. First of all - they are the most mindless things to style! I swear all you have to do is add your favorite pumps or leather riding boots and some statement earrings and voila! A chic fall outfit that took you three minutes to throw together. Secondly, they're pretty darn warm when running from the office to happy hour. Now that it's getting frigid again in Iowa, I'm loving this comfy & cozy piece that transitions perfectly into different occasions. 

So basically, the flannel shirt dress has now made it semi-acceptable to wear pjs to work. 
I'm not mad about it.

Have a great Monday! xo!

Fine China...

Vest: J.Crew (color no longer available) | Blouse: H&M | Denim: Paige | Pumps: J.Crew Factory | Bag: Tory Burch | Sunnies: Nasty Gal - only $20! | Watch: Michael Kors | Bracelets: J.Crew Factory, Alex & Ani | Lipstick: Bobbi Brown - Pale Mauve 

I love the look of blue and white china. When I was growing up, my grandparents' kitchen was decorated in blue and white tiles that looked exactly like the fine china you see in department stores, so every time I see a blue and white print is brings me back in time! This top from H&M definitely gives off that vibe and is an easy shirt to wear either at work with a pencil skirt or with jeans on the weekend. I think I like this look even better without the pink vest, but I had to include those pictures because I love the vest by itself! I got the vest in the pink color a few years back, however J.Crew has a ton of other fun colors. I love the olive green color for fall!

Hope you all had a great weekend! I was celebrating a wedding on Saturday and slept in on Sunday/worked on projects. After a week-long break from work, I think I'm ready to get back to the office and to my normal routine (including 5:45am spin...never thought I'd see the day!)

xoxo

Friday Night Inspo...

 

Vest: Forever 21 | Shirt: old, similar HERE, HERE & HERE | Pants: Nordstrom (no longer available), very similar | Heels: Banana Republic (obsessed!) | Clutch: Betsey Johnson | Earrings: Nordstrom | Watch: Michael Kors | Bracelets: J.Crew Factory, Alex & Ani | Lipstick: Bobbi Brown - Soft Rose 

My Friday and Saturday nights usually consist of two things: good friends and drinks downtown. Hanging out with friends is always a fun time, however I hate how hot I get in the bars! That's why I LOVE faux fur vests - they're easy to throw on over a blouse or lightweight sweater but they're not too bulky or hot when you're stuck in a corner booth. Plus they're so chic for the colder months! I bought mine from Forever 21 I think a year ago,  but I'm obsessing over a lot of their faux fur vests from this season too. I really like this shorter version too - it's on my wish list for Christmas! Yes I've already made my wish list... 

On another note, I'm now on day 4 of my "stay-cation" and I've actually been quite productive! My mom was in town most of the week, so we spent a lot of time shooting blog posts and running errands for our weekend plans. I'm a personal attendant in a wedding this weekend so I've been prepping for that! Woohoo for, yet again, another wedding! I think this is my last one until next spring... but we'll see!

Favorite Versatile Pieces...

If you're a longtime follower of this blog, you've probably noticed that I like to rotate items in my closet every season. Like every 23 year old, I live on a budget, so it's important for me to invest in pieces that I can re-wear in different ways! Today I'm excited to share 8 different ways I re-wear some of my most favorite, versatile pieces in my closet!

   ^^^sneak peak of next week's outfit!  

Item #1: Quality Denim 

Every girl NEEDS a pair of quality denim jeans because it's a sure thing that you'll wear them over and over again. Jeans are so versatile to wear; they can be dressed down to run errands or they can be dressed up with a blazer for the office (like above!). I'm a firm believer that if you invest in one nice pair of flattering jeans, you'll find that's the only pair you'll need. I love this pair that I bought during the Nordstrom Anniversary Sale because they fit true to size and they hug my figure without losing shape like a "jegging" would. They are a true denim pant in every aspect. 

Favorite denim brands: Paige, 7FAM, J Brand

---

Item #2: Floppy Hat

Floppy hats are my new favorite piece for fall - they add an instant chic-factor to almost any outfit! I love wearing mine while wrapped up in slouchy sweaters and turtlenecks. They definitely give off a 70's vibe that's very "in" this season! What's even better is the price point for my hat - $28! There are a ton of hat options at affordable price points, and they are easy to find at your local department store. 

Favorite fall hats: HERE, HERE & HERE

Item #3: Investment Bag

So I went back and forth for 2 years before I decided to pull the trigger on this bag. I do not regret this purchase one bit! This bag is so superior to all the other bags I've ever owned. The leather is so soft and it's roomy enough for a wallet, laptop, cell phone, coin purse, etc. It was definitely an investment that I saved up for, but I know it's something that I will carry for years to come. If it's been on your wish lists for months (or in my case, years) and you can swing it, you will not regret investing in one of these bags!

Favorite designer bag brands: Tory Burch, Kate Spade, Michael Kors

---

Item #4: Animal Print Pumps 

You'd be surprised, but I wear these pumps more often than not! To me, animal print pieces can be considered a neutral in your closet, so I tend to wear these pumps with solid color dresses for special occasions, black ponte pants for at work and with my favorite jeans for a fun night out with friends. They are seriously beautiful and not to mention versatile!

Favorite animal print pumps: HERE, HERE & HERE

Thanks so much for reading! xoxo

3 Tips to Make Your Legs Look Long and Lean...

Sweater: Brooks Brother (similar), similar here, here & here (under $80!) | Pants: Nordstrom | Boots: Forever 21 | Bag: Tory Burch | Hat: Nordstrom | Sunnies: Nasty Gal (look exactly like Prada's but only $20!) | Watch: JORD c/o | Bracelets: J.Crew Factory, Alex & Ani | Lips: Liner - MAC Cherry, Lipstick - MAC Rebel

I'm always looking for ways to make my legs look longer! I'm just under 5'6" so I'm not really short or tall, but I do think my legs are probably one of my favorite thing to accentuate! Over the years I've discovered a few tricks to help me achieve a long and lean look, so today I'm sharing with you a few tips that I think you will enjoy:

1. Matching your shoes to your pants can definitely create a streamlined look! This works especially well when you're wearing black pants and black boots/heels like I did in today's outfit. Additionally when you're wearing skirts or dresses sans tights, it's important to wear nude pumps or sandals to not create a break in your legs! This will help make them look super long and lean.

2. Anytime you add heeled pumps or boots will give you more length, but the pumps/boots you're wearing should definitely have a round or pointed toe! The pointed toe will give the appearance of more length and will also draw the eye upward!

3. Your shoes and pants aren't the only pieces that can match - try wearing a monochrome look! Wearing only one color from head to toe will help make your entire body look more lean and long. 

On another note, I'm a little obsessed with this sweater poncho! I love how soft it is and there are so many ponchos out in stores/online at almost any price point. I've found some amazing options for fall and winter in the widget below! Have a great day! Thanks for reading.

Monday blues...

Denim Jacket: Old Navy | Tank: Topshop | Jeans: 7FAM | Pumps: old, Sam Edelman option | Bag: Tory Burch | Sunnies: Madewell | Watch: Michael Kors on sale! | Bracelets: Alex & Ani, J.Crew Factory | Ring: Madewell | Necklace: Kate Spade | Lipstick: MAC - Patisserie 

No Monday blues here! After working a lot of long hours and running around non stop on the weekends I finally decided to take a weeklong stay-cation! I don't normally take this much time off but I think it was long overdue... I have empty pictures frames all around my apartment that I bought this spring! Oops! But in all reality, I'm just fortunate that I can get a little me-time during this gorgeous fall weather. I mean really, October in Iowa is seriously gorgeous!

Speaking of weather, this outfit would be perfect for a cool fall day. My light wash denim jacket is a staple for me during the summer, but it would look adorable with a blanket scarf over this Topshop tank. I just bought one that would look perfect with this outfit but I didn't want to wait to snap these photos! Also this tank is so versatile and I'm pretty sure it's shown up in a few other outfits on my Instagram. I have a hard time resisting anything pink so obviously this tank ended up in my shopping cart! But it's a steal at $28 so it was a guilt-free purchase :) 

Hope you're not dealing with the Monday blues! Thanks for reading, xoxo!
