Unboxing: Popsugar May Must Have Box

Earlier this week I had a wonderful surprise waiting in my mailbox and it was the May Popsugar Must Have Box! As a Popsugar Select Blogger I received a complimentary box to try out. I've heard a lot about the Popsugar Must Have Boxes and I have had the chance to review the special edition NatureBox a couple weeks back so I was excited to open it up and see what was inside.

Popsugar Must Have Boxes are $39.95/month and come with full-size hand-selected beauty, fashion, home, fitness and food products. It's much pricier than your typical subscription box service but if you consider the fact that you're getting full-sized products that are hand-picked by the Popsugar team it doesn't seem as unreasonable anymore. Plus, if you keep reading I'll be sharing how to get $10 off a 3 month subscription!

Travel Tuesdays: Milan, Italy

To kick off my Travel Tuesdays series I have my weekend trip to Milan, Italy. I went to visit my aunt who was there for work and I got the chance to do some sightseeing. We decided to do a self-guided walking tour called 'Milan Highlights Tour,' courtesy of the TripAdvisor Offline City Guides App on my iPhone. It took us from the Duomo di Milano to the Castello Sforzesco with stops at landmarks along the way.

New Post Series: Travel Tuesdays

To celebrate and memorialize my time in London studying abroad, I've come up with an idea for a new series on my blog. This series will revolve around my adventures here in Europe, showcasing various places I've visited, from famous landmarks to delicious meals. Posts from this series will make an appearance on my blog every Tuesday after a weekend of traveling.

The title of this series will be Travel Tuesdays, with the hashtags #traveltuesdays and #travelwithelle on Twitter and Instagram. I may attempt to vlog at times so those videos will show up on my YouTube.

Be sure to follow me on all my platforms (listed below) in order to keep up with my journey around Europe!

Website Spotlight: Bloglovin'


So it's true, as of July 1st Google Friend Connect will leave us. So what does that mean for us bloggers and readers? We'll have to find another way to connect to our readers and with the blogs we love to follow. Thankfully, there are plenty of alternates to GFC and some are even better. One of those even better ways is through a site I'm sure many of you have heard of by now, Bloglovin'.

Pose Fashion Forecast

There is one problem that plagues me every day without fail, and that is the question of what should I wear?! I'm sure that everyone on this planet has encountered this dilemma, whether you're trying to figure out what to wear to a special occasion or what to wear to run some errands. And a huge factor in deciding what you should wear usually comes down to the weather. Which by the way, I highly advise not wearing a dress or a skirt on a very windy day, because trust me I've done that by mistake and Marilyn Monroe moments are not as glamorous as she makes them seem.

Enter Pose's Fashion Forecast, a daily email telling you the weather conditions in your area and two poses from members of the Pose community for outfit inspiration. I've been subscribed to this service for a few days now and I'm already loving it. I typically spend around 10-15 minutes in the morning just sitting there contemplating what to wear and whether it is weather appropriate. This email takes about a minute to glance at and it helps to lead me on the right track. Check out an example of what the Fashion Forecast looks like after the jump!

Website Spotlight: Yipit


I've decided to start a new blog post series where I feature websites that I think are really cool and that you all would enjoy. I haven't come up with an official series title for it yet so for now I'm calling it "Website Spotlight." If you have any suggestions for a witty name please leave it down in a comment below!

Now on to the real post. I'm a huge bargain and deal hunter, I tend to only shop sales and always research ways to save money. So if you're anything like me, some of your best friends (in terms of websites) are deal sites like Groupon and Livingsocial. But all these sites can get a bit overwhelming and it can be a pain to sort through everything to find a deal that really interests you. Enter Yipit, the website that compiles all these deal sites into one and recommends the top deals for you.


You can search for deals local to your area and Yipit will sort them for you and show you which ones are trending or about to expire. You can categorize the deals by type, such as "Dining & Nightlife," "Fitness," and "Activities & Events." There's also a recommended category where Yipit will suggest deals based on your profile, which you fill out right after you sign up for an account to let the site know what you're looking for.


There's also a "Shop" section of Yipit where it'll show you the latest brands and products that are being featured in flash sale sites like Gilt and Modnique. You can sort by product type like "Women's Apparel," "Home Furnishings," and "Electronics." There's also a "Recommended" category here as well where Yipit will suggest sales based on your brand preferences indicated in your personal profile.
This is definitely one of my favorite website finds at the moment since it really makes it easy to compile and search through all the amazing deal sites that are out there. It's a great time and money saver and the best part is that you can tailor it to suit your deal preferences. You should definitely check it out!
