A Look at Modnique

Modnique Graphic

Recently Splash Creative Media introduced me to a shopping site I wasn’t familiar with called Modnique. This is a flash sale site and I know there seems to be a ton of them out there right now. But Splash Creative has never pointed me in the wrong direction so I decided to check it out (granted with a gift card).

What I found was a great shopping site with a trifecta of awesome! They have super cute things for men and kids but lets be honest. I was really just shopping for me, cause I’m like that.

First sign of awesome: High end name brands at relative steal! I mean brands like Versace, Pierre Cardin, Roberto Cavalli and Kate Spade! They are 50% or more discounted! This means I may actually be able to afford a great high end statement piece!!!

Second sign of awesome: There are more affordable brands also at deep discounts! That includes brands from not only the US but Europe and Israel! They blue flats up in the picture? $19 Breckelle flats that are imported! They have the Mon Platin Dead Sea Minerals from Israel for 86% off! So the body nectar? Only $11!!!

Third sign of awesome: On top of the discounts, Modnique has all kinds of deals on top of that!!! One of the specific sales is a Make an Offer!!! Yeah, seriously you type in an offer on specific dresses! And if that wasn’t enough…
They are doing 20 Days of Deals! These are daily collections of deals ramping up to Christmas. OPI polish collections for $19 and Farragamo scarves for $69! It really can’t be beat. But there is a drown side. They are all limited number sales. So I recommend that you are over at Modnique about 6 pm Pacific because that is when they release they sale items! I totally missed out on the OPI deal because they were gone extremely quickly!

So I have spent a bunch of time looking around at all the many things Modnique has to offer and I know what your big question is… What all did I get? Well, I haven’t firmly decided on everything but… I am getting a great corset for $29, some of that great Mon Platin Dead Sea Minerals cleansing tonic ($10) and body nectar($11), and a great sapphire ring for $10! If I get really decadent I will buy myself something from the diamond sale (or pass the address onto NerdFamily Dad;).

I want to thank Splash Creative for giving me a great gift card and introducing me to a fabulous sale site!!! My husband may not feel quite as grateful;).

 

Atlantic City Food and Wine Festival

I am such a West Coast girl. I have never been to Atlantic City and between the Real Housewives of New Jersey and Donald Trump, well I had a picture in mind;). But recently a few of my favorite bloggers were tweeting out pictures and fun things they were doing in New Jersey (#JerseyLove) and not only have they made me see beyond the bad MTV shows but I actually want to go!!

atlanticfwlogoThen my friend Rajean mentioned that there is an Atlantic City Food and Wine Festival! Not only is it 4 days of fabulous food but there are some big food names participating along with local talent! It starts July 25th and runs through the 28th. And if the pictures that are on their Facebook page are an indicator of the quality of food and the fun!!!

I wish I was going! Are you near by and going to be hitting the festival? If so you have to let me know how it is!! And I must say, it changing my mental New Jersey picture;).
