Entire Nasty Gal Webiste is 50% Off!

People this is not a drill.

If you have not heard, Sophia Amoruso sold Nasty Gal for Twenty Million.. I am assuming this crazy massive sale has something to do with it, but literally EVERYTHING is 50% off. That means Jeffrey Campbell, swimwear, beautiful lingerie, and truly unique vintage pieces! I myself am eyeing this gorgeous dress ! I first saw it a couple weeks ago, and it's now half off... Also, I'm loving this beautiful embroidered bikini, which is now only $30!!

                                                       Check everything out !!



 

What I Read in July

    If you are looking for life changing reads, these are not them. I purchased these to read while sitting at the pool or beach. While they are inspiring in their own ways, if you want something spiritually enlightening or life changing, do not go any further reading this post..


                                                                              
    The first was Around the World in 80 Lays. It's exactly what it sounds like.  Written by Melanie Curtain it's an insight into her real life dating and sexual adventures. She wrote this book to bring some positive attention to women's sexuality and to create less shame in talking about it. It is entertaining and there are a few good quotes and solid points, but don't expect much.

    The second book was one I had been interested in reading for a while ever since learning of her success, and that is Girlboss by Sophia Amoruso. I had held back because after all the rumors I had heard of the shady way she came to be successful I was a bit turned off about giving her more money. Well, I decided to give her a second chance and wanted to learn more about her and Nasty Gal. I have come to the conclusion that it was just that: rumors. I can understand that people will be jealous when someone succeeds so quickly and women are catty. It also turns out me and Sophia have a lot in common. This one was actually very inspiring, especially to those who do want to start their own business and have many nay-sayers. Her story is pretty incredible, and the crazy thing is they are still growing! So, I recommend this book. Although it is not superbly written and at times seems kind of all over the place, it was a very interesting and entertaining read.
   It seemed to be all over the place because some thoughts and points were a bit repetitive and the different chapters at times seemed to be irrelevant. My favorite parts were when she talked about the initial start of the company, what she looks for in hiring employees, and resumes, cover letters and interviews. It also has some really great quotes (which I shamelessly highlighted).

                                                                           



       What are some of your favorite books recently?

Nasty Gals Do it Better

          No, this is not a post about 'IT'. I just wanted to highlight all the great pieces that are on sale on Nastygal.com! Get your mind out of the gutter, guys! I found this site a little over a year ago and fell in love with everything, quite literally. A little later I read an article about the founder, Sophia Amoruso, and I suggest everyone look into her story because it is truly inspiring that you can do whatever you want to, with enough dedication and determination. Sophia started a business from purchasing things from thrift stores and styling it perfectly and she would resell these things for a profit. Genius! She photographed everything herself with her friends as models, it is now a multimillion dollar business. This is the type of business I don't mind supporting, this girl worked her way up from nothing, it's very impressive. So I won't bore you anymore with this story here are the great sale pieces on their site :
