Friday Favorites – Splurge or Save

·
Here we are once again and it’s Friday!  The days have been warmer and the days staying lighter longer which only means spring is near.  Spring always has me wanting to change things up and tackle a few projects around the house.  Of course I’m also on the lookout for the perfect summer sandal and an Easter dress.  I thought it would be fun to do a little Splurge vs. Save on a few items I’ve had my eye on lately.  
You can also use the code MARCH at Target for 10% off home items or 15% off when you spend $125 this week!  This post does contain affiliate links.  
I saw this doormat from Pottery Barn in someones Instagram and while it is cute I remembered seeing something similar in Target.  I love this one just as much for more than half the price….even if it might ruffle old Donald Trumps hair.  

We totally need new lamps for our bedside tables and after seeing Cassie’s console table post I am also dreaming up some changes there.  I love the look of this lamp from West Elm but this similar one at Target had great reviews and is so much cheaper!  
I don’t know what my deal is lately but just #givemeallthepillows!  Maybe because I haven’t been able to decide on new couches but I am loving adding a fun touch with a simple throw pillow.  The tassel look is definitely in too.  This is when I really wish I would have taken that home eco class and learned to sew!! Here are few pillows I found that I love.

 Sam Edelman sandals are always worth the splurge but these Sam and Libby at Target definitely could make a case for a great looking sandal.  
I saw this dress from Adalyn Rae at Nordstrom and it caught my eye but I could not justify the price just for a few wears.  This dress, however, I grabbed with a Cartwheel deal 29% off earlier this week and it is super cute.  Much, much longer than it appears as I am 5’7″ and it hit me just above the knee.  I purchased a large because that is all they had and it is unfortunately too big.  Hoping I can find it to try in a medium.  Right now the Exhilaration brand is BOGO 50% off so I’ve also included this cute cold shoulder top.  I also ordered this but it has not come in to try yet.  
So I’m curious, what are the items you choose to splurge on?  For me I will probably pay a little more for shoes because I definitely want them to be comfortable and last.  I also don’t mind splurging on great denim sometimes.  When it comes to things around the house I try not to splurge too much on decorator items so I can save enough to splurge on quality furniture (when I can make up my mine).  
I’m headed to the Brazos Valley Fashion Week show tonight with a friend to check out some spring fashion and support a great cause.  Tomorrow Texas A&M is continuing the week of honoring staff with a day at Kyle field so Carly Jo and I along with her friend Holden are going to check that out while Dillon & Keith head to Katy for baseball.  Sunday we will be back to Katy for more baseball so it looks like the weekend will be full.  
Hope you all have a super weekend….cheers!
