Hello July! Half the year is gone. Let’s make this next half great. July will bring lots of shopping opportunities- the Nordstrom Anniversary Sale and Amazon Prime Day.
But first, let me recap my June purchases.
This post contains affiliate links. I make a small commission from your purchases through these links. Thanks for your support.
1- Asics GT-1000 7 Running shoes- I know I need new running shoes when I start having knee pain and soreness. I was about to push it too far this time, so I needed shoes quick! I also don’t pay $100+ dollars for running shoes because you can always find a previous years model for much less. I usually run in Brooks Adrenaline but I wasn’t having any luck finding a discounted pair, so I tried these Asics. And of course I used Amazon Prime since I needed them quick! Knee pain is gone and these are working out, but I’ll probably go back to Brooks when I find a pair on sale because I’m having some weird foot pain and calf tightness in these. It may or may not be the shoes.
2- Maybelline Total Temptation Brow Pencil- My favorite drugstore brow pencil. I was about to run out so again I turned to Amazon prime to restock. The price was lower than the current drugstores prices and I didn’t have to go to the store. I think I’m becoming a hermit because I like to go to stores less and less.
3- Loft tie waist shorts- I love that these have a trendy tie waist but you can remove the belt and wear them like normal shorts.
4- Soma vanishing edge panties- I have heard so many good things about these so I finally gave them a try when I had a chance to visit a store. All the good things are true- no panty lines and they stay in place!
5- Apt 9 twist tee- This one is super soft and comfy and I love a good basic with a twist! (no pun intended)
6- Lauren Conrad pleat neck dress– I have this in navy gingham (pictured 3 ways here). At the time I was putting this post together the gingham wasn’t pictured but now it is. Even if the gingham isn’t available , it comes in other fun prints worth checking out.
7- Sonoma slides– another Kohl’s purchase. These are so comfy and at a fraction of the cost of other name brand slides of this style. They come in other fun colors and were $9.99 this past weekend. I’m not sure how long that sale price will last.
8- Striped straw pom pom tote– A Wal-mart find. It’s not huge like most straw totes, so it’s perfect as an everyday summer bag.
9- Loft outlet sunwashed tank- I have a black and white one like that I purchased a few years ago and they have held up well. These are the perfect tank for layering and they are not too tight and not loose or swingy. I saw them on sale and ordered two more colors- the olive and a red. These are one of my favorite purchases ever!
10- Snakeskin jersey dress– I love simple dresses like this for summer.
11- Liz Claiborne tankini top– I have blue swim bottoms but decided I needed a new top this year. This one is super cute with a tie detail in front and back.
12- Liz Claiborne twist top tank– I like yellow, stripes and twist tops, so what’s not to love about this?
I also purchased a set of knee pads from Amazon last month because I really need to clean the grout in our tile floors, and most of our house is tile! My poor knees needed some help. These did the trick! I’m still working on the grout but these are keeping my knees comfy while I work.
What were your fun finds and purchases for the month?
