Steals & Deals | White Pineapple Lamp

I have been obsessed with pineapples before they became a trend. A friend of mine once shared the funniest story about pineapples and since then, every time I saw something pineapple related I thought of him. Being from the south, they are also a welcoming sign of hospitality so it’s no wonder why I incorporating pineapple decor for the shemakescents office was a must.  I was on the hunt to replace my desk lamp since the layout of the new shemakescents office is totally different that where I blogged since 2011.  Then it came down to two options.

The more expensive lamp gave me the chic and slightly playful design and I wanted to blend into the design.  What it was lacking was respect to my budget.  I kept looking and while shopping at Hobby Lobby one day with my best friend, I found the exact lamp I was looking for; aesthetically and financially.  In fact, I loved it more for the gold accents that match other gold accents in the office.  Retailing at $59.99 + the 40% off coupon that I use EVERY TIME I shop at Hobby Lobby, I ended up paying $36.00 (not including taxes).  This has been my favorite decor steal, thus far, for the shemakescents office!steals-deals-1

{High/Low Makeup Comparison} Can You Tell the Difference?

Last week I pinned a picture of an awesome lipstick color! I followed the link to the tumblr account of Makeup Lovers Unite who has a complete page full of “makeup dupes”. The page consists of a list of comparison of high-end makeup products to their drug store counterparts. If  it’s the color you love, why not get the look for less?
