Monday, January 30, 2012 Monday, Bloody Monday - Again!
Hi! Happy Monday, funday! So this week is going to be nuts-o. NYIGF is going on and I got a ticket to ride. In addition to some major client decisions needing to be made, I am going to be MIA for a bit. This week I actually called upon some bloggy friends to help me keep the blog exciting! These girls are all so different, and unique and I am sure you are going to fall in love if you haven't already! Please welcome these bloggers with open arms:
I am a long time semi-stalker fan of all of them and am so excited they have come to my rescue this week. Cristin will make you want to drop everything and organize your life. Emily will inspire you to pick up and drill and conquer that DIY project you are too scared to do. Roeshel will light the fire in you to DIY your decor chic and cheap. And Kirsten will make you rethink your whole house. She's a pretty mama with perfect taste. So go stalk them not and prepare for a week of greatness!
On another note, I finally made it to CWonder this week! They opened one in The Westchester Mall.
So, I am going to be super honest in my review because that's how I feel information should be. Honest. I had super high expectations. I won't lie. Look at those doors. Don't you expect what's beyond them to be magical?
There were some cute trinkets, like these totally affordable $6 mugs. I am tempted to get some simply because they make me smile.
I was also really into these horse locket necklaces. They were $100something each. I guess I was confused because I heard they were a threat to anthropologie if you mashed that up with Kate Spade. The inside does resemble something a Kate Spade lover would like, but some of the merch was confusing...
These charms were super cute. Some of the close were cute (and affordable, especially with the 25% off already discounted items sale going on now), but then a Brookstone moment happened.
Piggy with sunglass speaker eyes. Confusing. But at the same time they had some super cute home accessories, like this monkey dish.
I wound up trying on some clothes, and walked out with two shirts for $50. I was tempted to get these pink pants, but Joey talked me out of it.
I guess over all I am confused what they are going for. It's decorated like a Kate Spade, it boasts stuff you would find at a Brookstone. They defiantly have some cute stuff, and 1/2 the store price points are awesome, while the other half is questionable. The branding is awesome. I will go back for sure, and I am curious to see how they edit in the future.
