SheIn Spring Sale!

Hi everyone and happy April 1st! As we all know, spring is officially upon us meaning it's time to revamp our wardrobes and fine tune them for the upcoming warm weather. So of course I have to mention that my sponsor SheIn is having a spring sale that runs through the end of April, that is HUGE! I'm talking saving you some serious cash. Just so you know the sale includes things that are 50-80% off, along with free shipping on orders over $30, and believe me with prices as low as they are, you can get a ton of stuff for $30. So, this being said we know what I'll be doing this weekend, and I figured I should share some of the awesome stuff I'll be buying (hint, hint: Most are from previous wish-lists)!

1. A plain black beanie

Okay, I know that typically beanies are for the fall and winter but this spring and summer I plan on rocking a few grunge inspired looks that simply wouldn't be complete without this piece. Also I've been in the market for a black beanie since some jerk stole my Zero Friends on back when I was in college, HOW RUDE. So obviously, when I seen this adorable beanie it was the first thing to go into my shopping cart! (You can get it here for $10.99 while supplies last)

2. A couple pair of cool sunnies

Ahhhh, one of my style weaknesses: sunglasses. I tried telling myself I didn't need any (come on Bree, you have TWELVE pair!) but with these two gems I couldn't resist! The first pair were just perfect for the 90s grunge inspired looks I've yearning for since mid winter, while the second pair are just a show stopping set of sunnies. Being an Aries, I simply just needed them. (I got these here  for a total of $24.99)

3. Cute & Quirky Graphic Tees

Something I've been lacking in my wardrobe are some awesome graphic tees. I don't know why but ever since I've gotten into the corporate world, the tees in my wardrobe have been dwindling, hence this season I'm making it my mission to stock up! (I got these here for a total of $24.78)

4. New pair of skinnies

Though I'm generally into boyfriend jeans come spring, some of my skinnies are starting to look ratty, so due to the super low prices SheIn is running right now, I decided to pick up this pair! (You can shop all kinds of denim here! You can get these jeans for $21.53)

5. Some awesome grunge inspired booties

I just absolutely fell in love with these boots! So naturally when I seen there was only 1 pair left and they were in my size, I took it as a sign that I should just get them! (And they were only $15.67!)

The total damage I've done? $97.96, and if you ask me, 7 versatile pieces for under $100 is a pretty sweet deal! Not to mention these will give me loads of new material for some Outfits of the Day!

Have you went over to SheIn and checked out their sale yet? Tell me about it in the comments below or tweet me at @StarkRavingChic! Wanna show off? Snap a photo and post it on Instagram and tag me @StarkRavingChic.

Later babes, happy shopping!

Xx, Bree

Pinrose Fragrances + Giveaway

Ever since I was a tween, I've been obsessed with perfume. Though I'll be the first to admit that back in the day, I didn't make the world's wisest fragrance choices. However, recently I was thrilled to have been contacted by Pinrose and sent some samples of two of their newest scents in honor of their recent launch at the South Hills Village Sephora! And I have to say both scents are pretty awesome.

So what is Pinrose?

As I'm sure you have guessed, Pinrose is a company that specializes in fragrances. However, unlike other companies, they go above and beyond to make sure they pair you up with the perfect scent for you! How do they do this? Well the one thing that stood out to me was they actually have a quiz (take it here) you can take to find out your scent personality, based on imagery, colors, shapes and even sounds that you like! By doing this Pinrose can find the perfect personalized scent for you. Another cool thing Pinrose does? Well they also have "scent pairings" to help you make your scent even more unique! If you ask me, that's some seriously good marketing. Now let's get to the reviews of the scents I received and that giveaway info.

Gilded Fox

"Sips like: Spiked hot cocoa"

The sips like description says it all about this pretty sultry scent. With aromas like cocoa, buttered rum, and vetiver, this scent is perfect by itself for a romantic date night with you're beau. Wanna turn up the heat a little more? For a bombshell blend, layer with "Secret Genius". Or you can even down play this scent a bit and give off a girl next door vibe by pairing it with "Wild Child".

Wild Child

"Sips like: Cosmopolitan"

Don't get me wrong, the Gilded Fox was a very nice scent, but this one was just way more me. This flirty and playful scent just goes so well with my bubbly personality I couldn't help but fall in love with it! Luckily Pinrose was kind enough to send me a whole 1oz bottle to keep, which is perfect because with spring being here and summer approaching right around the corner, I need to embrace my inner wild child and go with a more energetic and up beat fragrance! For a girl next door vibe, you can layer it with "Secret Genius", and if you want to turn up the heat with a sexy scent, the perfect pairing would be Tambourine Dreamer.

Giveaway

That's right everyone, I've had the opportunity to partner with the fabulous Pinrose, and since I loved the fragrance Wild Child so much, they agreed to give me an extra 1oz bottle so I could give it away to one of my lucky readers!

So, considering this post is mainly to raise awareness about Pinrose's recent launch in the South Hills Village Sephora this giveaway is for my local Pittsburgh babes only (other readers don't fret, you can still enter my blogiversary giveaway, ending April 3, 2016, here). To enter just leave your email in the comment section below. Note, this giveaway will be running for two weeks (Today, March 29, 2016 through April 11, 2016)  so you have plenty of time to enter and get this sweet fragrance for spring!
