Happy Thursday! I hope you are having a great week. This past weekend was very busy and a lot of fun. I celebrated my birthday and had the best weekend at Kierland Commons in Scottsdale. It was so much fun shopping and learning more about the stores. I've highlighted some of my favorite stores which include Etch Salon, Z Gallerie, Johnny Was & Alex and Ani. For all the stores, that I visited make sure to check it out on my Instagram Story saved under the Highlights (Kierland)

Johnny Was was one of my favorite stores because not only is it boho chic, but the colorful patterns and textures are amazing. The hand crafted silk materials are so delicate, soft, and unique. Not only is the kimono reversible, but it has the amazing hand stitched embroidery which makes it truly one of a kind. I absolutely love the silk kimono that I tried on at the store. It's perfect for the dressing up or down. It's definitely on my wishlist. It's also great for wall art and decor as well. I love the beautiful patterns and materials. I felt amazing in it and definitely would recommend this store if you are looking for something fun, unique, and whimsical to wear. The colors are vibrant and it's such a great place to shop this summer.

Etch salon looks absolutely amazing and stylists are super friendly. What sets this salon apart from others is the education and training that each of the stylists have to do. I also love the unique products that they used and can't wait to try them at home. My stylist, Alexis was amazing and did exactly what I wanted and more. If you've been following me on my Instagram, you know I am a total boho chic girl and I wanted to create a look that went with my style. I also wanted to do a fun fishtail braid and Alexis did not disappoint. She really brought my vision to life. Not only was she quick, but was amazing in showing me what products she used to re-create my look. It's definitely a salon to check out. Not only do they specialized in styling, but also color and haircuts. I got so many compliments on my hair and I wish that I could recreate this look at home.

Another fabulous store to I visited is Z Gallerie! I am seriously obsessed with everything in the store. I also learned to play with textures and different colors and accessories such as pillows, lamps, and a centerpiece allows you to create an entirely different look. I definitely recommending stopping by Z Gallery if you need major inspiration for your home and decor. Even if it is to pick up an accessory or statement piece to accent your look. After visiting this store, I now have so many ideas of what I want to create for my bedroom and living area.

Alex and Ani is such a fun store to visit to accessorize any of your outfits. They carry such a variety of pieces and it's perfect for gifts or treating yourself to something special. I love that pieces are made in the USA. Not are they quality pieces, but I love the variety that they offer. I selected  the "evil eye" and I am in love with my necklace to ward off bad vibes. I've been on the hunt for an "evil eye" necklace and this one was perfect. The best part about the necklace it is that you can adjust the length, which makes it more versatile to wear. What type of jewelry do you love to wear? If you are a jewelry lover, I definitely recommend stopping by this store.


I had so much fun connecting with other bloggers at this event and learning about the different brands. If you are ever in Scottsdale, I totally recommend hitting up these stores and visiting Kierland Commons. I promise there is something for everyone here.

Thanks for stopping by! What are your favorite stores and brands? Also, a special thanks to Mandy for setting up this event.  Have a great day and an even better weekend ahead!!!
