All Things Fabulous – A Flirty Fashions Review/Giveaway and my 200th Post


Ladies and Gentlemen (and by gentlemen, I mean my three regular male readers which include but hopefully are not limited by my husband, father, and brother), welcome to me 200th post!



Two hundred times I thought about something to say, actually sat down to write it, and clicked the publish button (which still makes me feel all fluttery inside).



I love writing and blogging. I feel all lit up and alive inside whenever I do anything remotely blogging related: talking about it, doing it, thinking about it. I feel incredibly lucky that I found something that makes me happy and more in tune with myself.



And what better way to celebrate than to host a Flirty Fashions giveaway for my readers as a thank-you for being such an awesome and integral part of the blogging experience.



Last week, I attended the Flirty Fashions Grand Opening at Partridge Creek Mall. I dressed up in my best Little Black Dress and had a blast. This is a local fashion boutique that originated in Rochester that is opening a second location just down the street from me. How lucky am I?!



Flirty Fashions Partridge Creek Location



The store is gorgeous and for the Grand Opening Party, there were beautiful, live models showing off the store’s incredible merchandise.






In addition to all the amazing clothes, there was a sugar scrub station set up like an ice cream parlor. We got to pick out a scent and add sugar and sprinkles that looked just like an ice cream treat.









I had a great girls’ night out with Shannon, Christina and Melissa (but due to some technical difficulties, Christina and Melissa are not pictured here).

Are we totally hot or what?!



The party was fun, but I have to say that I cannot wait to go back to the store and do some shopping. There were so many pieces that I loved. Here are a few of my favorite looks:



I love the design and color of this dress.
 It has this 1960’s retro feeling, yet without being to costume-y.






I fell in love with this beautiful purple, silk dress.
The necklace totally gives the dress a glamorous touch.
 I think I need to create an event to which I could wear this dress.
Maybe I’ll wear this when I hit the publish button on my 300th post.








I love the delicate pearl details on this cardigan.
I see me wearing this at Thanksgiving. And Christmas.
And Friday at the bus stop.
Yes, I would probably live in this because it is so soft.




They also have amazing jewelry!




Colorful . . .





 . . . and sparkly!


Flirty Fashions is a beautiful store with a unique and diverse selection. In addition to the pieces I pictured here, there is a huge selection of evening and formal wear. The merchandise is reasonably priced, and I love that this store is Michigan-based since supporting the local economy is important to me.



I am happy to say that Flirty Fashions is giving me a $50 gift card that can be used at either the Partridge Creek location or their newly relocated store in Rochester.



Thank you to everyone who reads my blog! It really means so much to me!

Right now, fancy to me would be wearing anything as long as it wasn't a nursing bra! They're horribly un-fancy and I'd kill to be out and about with a regular, lovely bra. Plus that would officially mean I'm temporarily off baby duty. Fancy!
