Thank you to all of you all who were helping us look for it, and giving us tips on how to get it quicker! This trip will be so amazing once we get there. We hope you all have a great weekend!

We get the tightest hips. Do you all? It is probably because we spend so much time sitting and working, oops. We are definitely going to be trying these hip stretches! We have also been going to yoga at Exhale Spa, which we LOVEEE! Such a beautiful studio, and we love their classes and spa.

If y’all are heading out on a trip like we are, you should definitely check out this post on 34 packing hacks. To be honest, we try to fold everything nicely, but when we get there it is all wrinkled, UGH!

Happy Wednesday! We have had quite the week. In case you missed our previous blog posts, we were supposed to be leaving for Mexico Monday, but Sam couldn’t find her passport on Sunday night, so we searched the entire house, only to not find it. We are having to reschedule our trip, so it has been quite the series of events;) Lesson here: make sure you have your passport before leaving for a trip, haha.

Today, we will be sharing what we ate last week. We try to remember what we ate the past week, and to be honest, we eat a lot of the same foods each day, but you all always want to know, so we are going to keep sharing it! If you all have anything specific you want to see, let us know!

We have been using it every day for the past week, and have tons more energy. You can mix it in your smoothies, baked goods, or just sprinkled on top of your food. And, it actually tastes good!In case you missed last week’s workout post, last week’s workout post, we shared a downloadable workout for the week. Each day (workout) is split into a muscle group with rep amounts, set amounts, and weight amounts. We also are giving a few tips as well. This workout schedule is available for download for $10.

Our Favorite Places to Shop + $1000 Giveaway

April 25, 2017

Our Favorite Places To Shop | adobeledose.com

Sometimes you just need to go back to basics. This knotted tee is only $22 and is a twist (get it? on a basic white tee. We love how it is kind of oversized! We are wearing an XXS for reference. These cutoffs do seem like an investment for ripped shorts, but they are really well made, and they are the perfect baggy fit, but not too baggy! You all know we love these black slip ons! They are a great shoe for all year, are under $60, and super comfy!

PS- head to the bottom of the post for your chance to win $1000!A lot of you all want to know where our favorite affordable place are to shop. If you know us well, you probably know that we don’t like to spend and arm and a leg on pieces, especially trendy ones. Of course, we will treat ourselves to a nice investment piece once in a while like shoes, a bag, or some good jeans, but most of the time, we like to stick to a more budget-friendly range.Our favorite places to shop are:

Nordstrom:

We love Nordstrom for so many reasons. It is probably the store we shop at at the most. They have tons of cute, affordable pieces, and it is a one-stop-shop for all things clothes, shoes, beauty, accessories, and home. We also love that they offer free shipping and returns, AND their customer service and return policy is amazing!

Banana Republic:

We have been shopping at Banana Republic for years. They have great jeans for petites, and frequently have sales with up to 40% off. They also have amazing work/business casual pieces that are super adorable and versatile!Amazon:

In case you all haven’t seen, Amazon has a GREAT fashion section now. They sell all of the top brands, and usually their stuff is actually in stock in most sizes, which is great! If you’re an amazon prime member, you can get your items super quick!

Forever21:

We know everyone knows about them, but in case you don’t, or haven’t shopped with them in a while, they do have some really cute things! We hate going into the store, but online, it is way easier to find stuff!

Shein:

We know that Shein can get a bad rap, and we know that there are some bad reviews written about them. To be honest, we haven’t had any issues with them. It is kind of hit or miss, but we really only share the items we love from them. They do have some great, affordable pieces that are trendy. Who wants to spend a million dollars on something you will only wear once or twice. Also, their shipping does take a while, so sometimes it is worth it to spend the extra money on the expedited shipping.

Goodnight Macaroon:

This is another company from China, but again they have great pieces! Their items are a little more expensive than Shein, but they do have a sale every Tuesday that is up to 50% off. See this post for our roundup of their sale pieces!Express:

To be honest, we had kind of forgotten about Express. It wasn’t until last fall, we stumbled upon it again, and fell in love with all of their pieces! They have super cute dresses, tanks, and sweaters. They also have great dressy/work stuff, too. They are also another store that has sales often, so be on the lookout for those!

Zappos:

Zappos does carry other things besides shoes, but what we love about them is that they have TONS of shoes that are usually not in stock anywhere else, and they offer free shipping and returns. They also have a year return policy, which is amazing!Old Navy:

We have been shopping at Old Navy for years. They have great basics, and we love their workout gear, and their basic tees.

J. Crew Factory:

If you love J.Crew, you will love their outlet store. They have all of the same pieces for a lot less, and have sales all of the time! They have great shoes, accessories, and we love their chambray tops. They also have great, solid bright pieces.

Asos:

Their website can be hard to shop and navigate because they have so many items, but they have some really unique pieces. We love their skirts, dresses, and swimsuits!

Baublebar:

We are literally OBSESSED with their jewelry pieces. They have the cutest earrings and statement necklaces, and they are all super affordable! Not to mention, the girls that started it, and the girls that work there are adorable, and SO sweet! They are offering up to 50% off right now, so don’t miss out!

On a sidenote, this tote and duffle bag have been our go-to for traveling, and just everyday stuff!

Our Favorite Spots in Dallas: Lower Greenville | adoubledose.com

Happy Monday! We just got back Saturday afternoon from a quick stay in Austin at the South Congress Hotel (full post coming on that soon, we LOVED it!), and were supposed to be off today to Cabo for a fun few days at the Breathless Cabo by the marina. Samantha lost her passport somehow, and didn’t realize until 6:30 PM that she couldn’t find it, so we are going to try to rebook our trip as soon as we can. We can’t wait to show you all of our trip once we make it out there! Before we get into our favorite spots, we wanted to talk about this super cute, tiered dress! It is the prefect spring and summer dress, it is under $50, and comes in a rust color, too. It also comes in a super fun maxi dress that we want! We are wearing an XS in it for reference.

Bachelorette Party Essentials with Stag & Hen

April 21, 2017

Bachelorette Party Ready with Stag & Hen | adoubledose.com

Wedding season is here, and that means bachelorette parties are happening! Whether you are getting married, or are in a bachelorette party soon, we found the CUTEST stuff you have to have in order to have the best time, and look perfectly accessorized, of course;) All of the pieces below are from the most adorable boutique, Stag & Hen.So, y’all know that our job basically revolves around looking cute, girly, and put-together. Of course, we would not be part of any bachelorette party that wasn’t instagram-worthy, right? Everything we do is for the ‘gram! What we love about all of these pieces from Stag & Hen is that they are all super cute, pink and gold, and sparkly. Who wouldn’t love that? Since we are so busy, and are sure most of y’all are too, we love that this boutique is a one-stop-shop, meaning you don’t have to look all over the internet for cute party accessories. Everything is laid out for you, and we are not going to lie, you are going to want the entire store. Who wouldn’t want a giant ring balloon, matching bright tanks, flash tattoos, super fun shot glasses, and a pink banner, for the instagrams and snapchats, of course!https://www.shopstagandhen.com/collections/favors-accessories/products/bride-tribe-tanks-pink-mint-greyWe wanted to share each of the items we picked out individually to show you how cute they are!

These “Bride Tribe” and “Bride” tanks are so cute. We love the bright colors, and how they fit. They are also super soft, and would be perfect on top of a swimsuit. They also have ones that say “Drunk in Love”and “Just Drunk”.
We are all about fun banners and garlands, especially when they are gold and sparkly, and colorful! This gold banner is so cute, and could definitely be used again for birthday party. They also have some others that say “she said yaaas”, “last fling before the ring”, “drunk in love”, “bachelorette bash”, and so many other fun phrases.
When we saw this tissue paper garland, we were in LOVE (insert heart eyes emoji) what girl would’t love this? They have it in different colors, all so adorable!
Every girl needs a good pair of sunglasses! These say “bride” and “bride tribe”, and they also have some that are heart-shaped, as well as some other fun ones!Of course, koozies are a necessity, especially when they are this cute with gold detailing! How fun will these look with the matching tanks?
These little drink markers are so fun! How cute with these look on the cups below?
These frosted cups and shot glasses look so fancy, but are great for carrying around drinks, and you don’t have to worry about them breaking! And, for the bride, a super cute sparkly cup:Although neither of us is getting married anytime soon, we know that many of you all are either getting married or part of the wedding, so we thought it would be perfect to share! Be sure to check out our instagram for a chance to win all of these adorable pieces!

The boutique also has a super resourceful section on their site for party planning tips and inspiration. While we like to think we are creative, we would definitely have a hard time planning a big party, let alone, a bachelorette party! This girl is your girl for all things bachelorette.

In partnership with Stag & Hen.
