Weekend Steals & Deals | Spring Dreaming

<div style="text-align: justify;"><br />Happy Friday to you!  I am knee deep in closet clean-out and organization as I near the end of my <a href="http://www.honeywerehome.com/2015/01/top-10-home-organization-challenge.html" target="_blank">Top 10 Organization Challenge</a>.  After the closet, I only have the power cords/tech gadgets to organize and we're done! Yay!  I'll be so excited to get back into more regular decor/design posting.   I resolved not to do more decorating in our home until the organizing jobs were done, and I've already got <a href="http://www.honeywerehome.com/2015/03/bedroom-rug-over-carpet.html" target="_blank">bedroom ideas </a>floating around and plan to put those into action soon.  </div><br /><div style="text-align: justify;"><br /><br></div><br /><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />Since so much of our country is blanketed in snow and freezing their tails off, I thought we could benefit from looking forward to some Spring fashion today.  And we do "Spring forward" this weekend.  I hate losing that hour of sleep, but that extra hour of daylight is nice.  </div><br /><div style="text-align: justify;"><br /><br></div><br /><div style="text-align: center;"><br /><span style="font-size: large;"><span style="color: #e06666;">weekend</span> <span style="color: #ea9999;">steals </span><span style="color: #f4cccc;">&</span><span style="color: #ea9999;"> deals </span></span></div><br /><div style="text-align: justify;"><br /><br></div><br /><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />This <a href="http://bit.ly/1NmgZW2" target="_blank">solid-colored maxi dress</a> is popping back up and it's already on sale 25% off.  This type of dress is a Spring staple and I love wearing a maxi with a demin jacket if it's cool out or evening. </div><br /><div style="text-align: justify;"><br /><br></div><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both;

Wardrobe Wednesday - Running Exercise Clothes + Good Jog Bra

<div style="text-align: justify;"><br />Happy Wednesday y'all!  Today is a super special day because my son turns 5 today!  <a href="http://honeywerehome.blogspot.com/2012/03/james-age-2-photo-word-collage.html" target="_blank">Wasn't he just 2?!?! </a> Is it just me or does 5 suddenly feel very big-boy?  I'm a sappy mess, but flooded with love and pride for how special and wonderful our son is.  When I asked him if he wanted to stay 4 so he could always be my little baby, he said no, he wants to turn 5, but "I'll always be your little baby even when I get big."  Oh, yes, my son, truer words were never spoken!  And I plan to stay healthy and fit so I can keep up with this boy for many, many years to come.  </div><br /><div style="text-align: justify;"><br /><br></div><br /><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />Today, I teamed up with one of my favorite retailers, <a href="http://bit.ly/1AHRxAd" target="_blank">Nordstrom</a>, to share some of my favorite <a href="http://bit.ly/1AHRxAd" target="_blank">women's running clothes.</a>  Y'all know I love to workout, and I have discovered that good workout clothes make exercising that much better!  We're fortunate to have an awesome running trail not too far from our house that I visit often for a 3-mile jog.  I'll choose getting outside and running in the fresh air over being inside on the treadmill any day.  If I'm feeling particularly ambitious, I'll go twice around the loop, which makes 6 miles, but that isn't too often because I run slow! </div><br /><div style="text-align: justify;"><br /><br></div><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgrE6uhyphenhyphenW4IHvD6B0IfnyptidqRu7NdJqRvSV9f17L0aU86XQj3yVq5jJSNia-1jqHYL-vJXpzcZa99kdL-tHdT57Ww4yA3HV0zi0n7OEPXzj2kxG5-97Bqk1A3K5LAGXBXJ_1qQhGBYNAO/s1600/running+workout+clothes+Honey+We're%2BHome%2B(11%2Bof%2B17).jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgrE6uhyphenhyphenW4IHvD6B0IfnyptidqRu7NdJqRvSV9f17L0aU86XQj3yVq5jJSNia-1jqHYL-vJXpzcZa99kdL-tHdT57Ww4yA3HV0zi0n7OEPXzj2kxG5-97Bqk1A3K5LAGXBXJ_1qQhGBYNAO/s1600/running+workout+clothes+Honey+We're%2BHome%2B(11%2Bof%2B17).jpg"></a></div><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /><br></div><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;"><br />The first crucial piece of workout wear for running is a good, supportive <a href="http://bit.ly/1NfPoFJ" target="_blank">sports bra</a>.  If you've ever run without one, you know why!  This <a href="http://bit.ly/1DSm1US" target="_blank">Zella Heartbeat bra</a> is perfectly supportive and great for running.  I was surprised that it has a removable pad in the bust like a bikini top, but you can remove it or keep it if you want a fuller look.  The medium fit me perfectly. </div><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;"><br /><br></div><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhrymC6yqD5D5D5RRzNplXhGqnepNozZCPPX0V2Ap-Bfb-PAKwg8TOgApobYaeqM139Ff46B8QIMX99z5IgfWYVomDD5Rbf7KkttITyRef0qTrT_VTpyYNRnxGsjALIVdX-6rGEK2M8RVaZ/s1600/Zella+Sports+bra.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhrymC6yqD5D5D5RRzNplXhGqnepNozZCPPX0V2Ap-Bfb-PAKwg8TOgApobYaeqM139Ff46B8QIMX99z5IgfWYVomDD5Rbf7KkttITyRef0qTrT_VTpyYNRnxGsjALIVdX-6rGEK2M8RVaZ/s1600/Zella+Sports+bra.jpg"></a></div><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br />This bra went on sale for 40% off since I purchased it, so I requested and received a price adjustment from Nordstrom.  I love that they do that! </div><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /><br></div><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div><br /><a href="http://www.honeywerehome.com/2015/03/wardrobe-wednesday-running-exercise.html#more">Read more »</a>

Bedroom Rug Over Carpet

<div style="text-align: justify;"><br />I was browsing rug sources last night, looking for a rug to layer over the carpet in the master bedroom and came across some contenders on Lulu & Georgia and Joss & Main, but I still want to check out Homegoods and some other online retailers like RugsUSA, Target and Overstock before I pull the trigger.  I'll continue pinning my faves onto my <a href="https://www.pinterest.com/honeywerehome/rug/" target="_blank">"rug" Pinterest board</a> if you want to check them out.  I still need to measure to see exactly the size we need, but our bed is a little over 7 feet wide, so I'm looking at  rugs at least 7'6 x 10'6.  I like to see lots of rug beyond the actual bed. </div><br /><div style="text-align: justify;"><br /><br></div><br /><div style="text-align: center;"><br />Below is a cool graphic illustrating how different rug sizes will look with a king bed.</div><br /><div style="text-align: justify;"><br /><br></div><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi2IQYnyQuswwUkgxfJrFEqJ_TiPF2J5slP4STUSreJPK4lrAZqmmhyphenhyphen2FUSlD7EbLiFFxejjRCzJDff7MyKLFqsSyq3utvS8Fxm3cu4b6APjGSQvgUkg77S5aulDIEoPHlDpbLXY9DvEDbZ/s1600/Screenshot+2015-03-02+03.15.56.png" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi2IQYnyQuswwUkgxfJrFEqJ_TiPF2J5slP4STUSreJPK4lrAZqmmhyphenhyphen2FUSlD7EbLiFFxejjRCzJDff7MyKLFqsSyq3utvS8Fxm3cu4b6APjGSQvgUkg77S5aulDIEoPHlDpbLXY9DvEDbZ/s1600/Screenshot+2015-03-02+03.15.56.png"></a><span style="font-size: x-small;"><a href="http://designwotcha.com/tips-tricks/numbers-behind-design/when-size-matters-in-the-bedroom" target="_blank">via The Design Wotcha</a></span></div><br /><div style="text-align: justify;"><br /><br><br /></div><a href="http://www.honeywerehome.com/2015/03/bedroom-rug-over-carpet.html#more">Read more »</a>
