Well, we have been MIA for awhile now. I have been home about one day a week for the last three weeks due to work travel (and I leave again today!). So, it's been a crazy month.
But, I'm here today to tell you about a new obsession of mine. Have you ever longed for a personal stylist without the obligation or awkwardness of buying what they pick out for you? Well, look no further than Keaton Row.
My friend, Alexia (shout out!), introduced me to the free service. Basically, you fill out a style profile and they match you with a stylist. The stylist puts together several looks for you based on your preferences, and you can pick and choose what you want to buy. The stylist then gets a commission from the retailers, so there's no obligation for the client!
All of the clothes/shoes/accessories come from Nordstrom, Shopbop, asos, and Les Nouvelles, so there are tons of options and lots of price points and name brands.
My stylist, Melissa, has put together several looks for me already, and I've purchased a few items that I really love including this little number...
And, for those natural fashionistas out there, you can apply to be a stylist with Keaton Row and start getting paid for what you love to do!
So, check it out. Like I said, there's no obligation. And, you can get $25 off your first purchase of $200+ with the code REFERFRIEND25.
Let us know if you sign up, and tell us all about your stylist!
This is not a sponsored post. I just love Keaton Row, and I thought you would too!
We're finally back in the groove following the long Labor Day weekend. Kelley enjoyed some time at the beach, and we went to Atlanta with some friends for the Alabama game. It was an ugly win, but a win just the same!
I'm excited to tell you about my newest obsession...
Have you heard of FabFitFun yet?? Giuliana Rancic is involved, so you know it has to be fabulous!
It's similar to Birchbox, but I think it's way better. Each season (so, four times a year), you get a box filled with the latest and greatest in health and beauty products. And, they're all FULL SIZE products! No more samples laying around the house. I love that it's only four times a year. With Birchbox, I could never use all the samples in one box before I got another in the mail.
And, you can subscribe to their emails or visit their website (they tipped me off to the leaked Adele songs yesterday!) to get great tips on healthy eating, stress relief, new workouts, beauty must-haves, and much more.
Each box is valued at over $200, but costs you just $49.99 per quarter. That may seem like a lot, but in the summer box alone, I received a full-size Sonya Dakar Flash Facial, which retails for $95. Gwyneth Paltrow is a fan of Sonya Dakar's products, and she has some of the most gorgeous skin around!
The summer box came with the following:
1. Slimfast Have Your Cake...Meal Bar: This protein bar is part of the Slimfast 14-Day Slimdown program. It's supposed to taste like vanilla cake with frosting and sprinkles. I can't wait to try it! The bars aren't sold individually, but a box will cost you about $5.50.
2. POPchips: These are like popcorn and chips combined! They're not fried or baked; they're actually popped. They're only 100-130 calories per bag! They cost about $1.30/bag.
3. FabFitFun Water Infuser BPA-free Water Bottle: You can add flavors like cucumber, mint, strawberry, etc. to your water with this bottle! There is a little compartment in the middle of the bottle where you add the flavor so it infuses your water. It retails for $15.
4. Thursday Friday Away Mini Clutch/Makeup Bag: This little canvas makeup bag is just adorable. It retails for $35.
5. Always Xtra Protection Long Daily Liners: These panty liners are supposed to keep you fresh and dry because they're 5x drier than regular Always Thin liners. They retail for $1.50.
6. Zoya Nail Polish: This coral color polish is perfect for summer/early fall. It sells for $9.00.
7. pur~lisse pur~protect SPF 30: This is an anti-aging moisturizer with SPF 30. It was recently featured in Vogue as the Editor's Favorite Summer Product. It retails for $55.
8. Balanced Guru No Frizz Oil: I can't wait to try this! It helps tame flyaways and frizz, which are always a problem for me! It retails for $25.
9. Skintimate Shave Gel: This shave gel smells delicious! And, it's a perfect size for travel. It retails for $1.99
10. KISSTIXX Lip Balm: These are hilarious to me. There are two different flavors in the pack that are supposed to mix perfectly together whenever you kiss. You put on one flavor and give your smooching partner the other, then taste the peaches and cream! They retail for $5.99
11. Sonya Dakar Flash Facial: I'm excited about trying this product. It's a 1-minute facial that's supposed to be great for all skin types. Like I said earlier, it retails for $95!
If I were to buy all these products individually, I would have spent $250!
So, if you're into new beauty/health/lifestyle products, you should definitely check out FabFitFun. The next shipment is for their fall box, and I'm sure it will be to die for!
What do you think? Have you tried it out yet?
This is not a sponsored post. I just wanted to let y'all know about FFF because I love it and thought you might enjoy it too!
If you're anything like me, shopping for bras is not something you necessarily enjoy. I hate getting measured and having to try them all on in the dressing room and having over-eager saleswomen check my progress.
Enter True & Co.: Your Personal Bra Shop Online. True & Co. makes bra shopping easier and more enjoyable.
It's a genius concept, really. You fill out a short quiz to determine your size and fit. The quiz gauges more than just your bra size; it takes your body shape into account to determine the best bra for you.
After your size is determined, they suggest bras for you based on your size and shape. And the best part is that you get to choose five bras to try on at home for FREE! That's right, you get a whole box full of bras with no obligation.

| My True & Co. order |
I ordered the Leilieve "Feel Good," the Spanx "Brallelujah Racerback," the Triumph "Perfectly Soft," the Calvin Klein "Icon Modern T-Shirt Strapless," and the Calvin Klein "Seductive Comfort."
Obviously, comfort is important to me.
You have five days to try on the bras and determine which ones, if any, you want to keep. They send you an envelope and return label so you can return the bras you don't want for free.
They ask that you fill out a short feedback form before returning your bras so they can better serve you in the future.
I ended up keeping three out of the five bras. I honestly liked all of them, but I didn't want to spend that much money right now.
Currently, they offer band sizes 32 - 38, and cup sizes A - F. They also offer panties and other lingerie.
There were two minor downfalls I found after my first order:
1. It took about seven days for me to get my order. That's not a super long time, but I'm used to 3-5 days, tops (thanks, Amazon!).
2. One of the bras I ordered was marked "final sale." I didn't realize until after I went to fill out my feedback form that final sale items are not returnable, even with the free try at home program. So, I ended up having to keep it with no choice.
Overall, I had a really good experience and would suggest it to anyone who hates bra shopping as much as I do. And, if you use my referral code, you can get $15 off your first order!
So, what do you think? Would you rather order bras online, or do you prefer shopping in store?

True & Co. did not ask me to review their product, and I have not received compensation. I just really like their product and want others to know about it.
