The #FabFound Life

As you can see from the grin on my face, I had a great weekend! The weather was amazing, it was my parent's anniversary, and Mike and I had the chance to enjoy the beautiful summer weather... Much needed after a hectic week.

But part of my giddiness for the weekend can be attributed to Marshalls! You might have seen it on the House Of Jeffers Twitter feed, but I was chosen to be a participant in Marshall's Project Fab! I applied via Facebook and received the wonderful news last week!

I'm so excited to be a part of Project Fab because I have found some of my favorite wardrobe pieces at Marshalls! And as you can see from the shopping bag, I came home with my own #fabfound!

Check back on Wednesday to see what I bought!   

One Can Dream

So, let's talk about how this tweet from Lucky Magazine made my Sunday... and year pretty much.

It all started when they created an app that lets grown-ass women like me create your own 15 minutes of fame a la an app where you put yourself on the cover of their magazine. Don't act like you haven't thought about it. What ensues next was me sitting on my iMac on Saturday afternoon, obsessing finding a photo to upload.

I make my decision, upload my photo and BAM - my very own Lucky Magazine cover. My mother would be proud... I hope.

Sunday arrives. I check my House Of Jeffers Twitter page, and see I have a tweet waiting for me. From Lucky Magazine... "ummmm @houseofjeffers is killing it" it reads.

I lose my s%#.

I am so completely flattered and just wowed that Lucky Magazine enjoyed my photo, and then took the time to share it with their plethora of followers. Sometimes, it's the little things that mean the most, and in this case, I appreciate the compliment so very much.

HUGE love and hipster hugs to Lucky Magazine for making my day. As a blogger, we all strive to make a dent in the blogging world... And even though all I did was upload my photo to their app, it just feels really good to have a magazine that I absolutely respect for their commitment for giving so many bloggers a voice... share some of it with me.

Pass the Kleenex, for reals.
