Persun asked to sponsor my blog! Hurray! :D As you may know, I've been saving up to move to Europe and I opened Etsy and Storenvy stores for this purpose. Sponsorships will certainly help to expedite my goal of teaching law abroad, so I'm super stoked about this partnership with Persun and I look forward to doing more of these in the future!  As part of Persun's sponsorship, I will receive items to review. There isn't any guarantee that I'll receive my wish list items, but if the item(s) is sufficiently unique and the price is right, I have no problem splurging during a big sale. :D Here are some faves!


PERSUN Wish List

Picture
Colorful Embossed Buckle Shoulder bag/Handbag - $120

Picture
Retro Buckled Flap Satchel - $54

Picture
Embossed Square Satchel - $29

I need a blue bag, like woah. Seriously. I have no blue bags at all. I also don't have any green or orange bags. Fall is practically upon us, so I've been hunting for the right style bag in any of those colors as they would nicely compliment some of my typical Fall styles. I love that first floral satchel!

You've probably noticed that I wear a lot of the same handbags in my style posts. That's because I really don't have that many. I don't own very many shoes, either. Maybe a dozen or so. I am just terrible at being a woman. Well, that and I'm poor. Haha. Must get more shoes and more bags. Yes. OK. Got it.

Loose Style Knitted Cardigan With Front Pockets - $50


I'm pretty stocked up on dresses, believe it or not. I have plenty that I have as of yet to wear. I used my frock challenge as an excuse to acquire more, you see. ;P So, I didn't even bother to look very closely at Persun's dress section. I am, however, a collector of sweaters and cardigans. It's a bad habit, but one that I'm not all that interested in breaking. Hehe. This particular cardigan caught my eye mainly because I've been wanting one in this color and length for awhile now. It is perfect for Fall!

Colorful Balloon Girl Chiffon Vest - $44

Picture
Sheer Scalloped Chiffon Blouse - $34

After purchasing a stand alone closet and organizing my crap, it became easier for me to see the aforementioned sweater addiction. Haha. However, I also discovered that I was critically low on tops. I've got t-shirts out the wazoo, but very few blouses and nice tanks. So, I'm all about trying to fill that void, right now. I gotta say, that air balloon tank top is super cute! I'm already obsessed with it.

Picture
British Long Neckline Suit - $131
Picture
Unique Tippet Style Terylene Sleeveless Blazer - $85

Of course, no wishlist of mine would be complete without some menswear inspired items. I'm loving Persun's selection of blazers. The sleeveless blazer style kills me! It's expensive, but I may have to save up for that one.
So awesome! I'm also on a floral blazer kick, lately. The one below is very cool!

Vintage Floral Lapel Blazer - $35

I'm excited to work with Persun and to inform you about the quality of their items and their business practices. If you're like me, then you've probably never heard of this company. So, if you're curious, stay tuned for my upcoming reviews! Customer service is a big deal to me and I will keep an eye on that. Also, I've done some unsolicited on-line shopping reviews in the past, if you want to take a gander.

Any reviews that I write as part of a sponsorship will be my words and they will be honest. If a sponsor(s) tries to change that, you will see their banner disappear from my page. I'm not a mere conduit for advertisements. My blog and followers are paramount. Your respect matters!

I hope you get one of those bags - they are so fabulous! :D And yay for you with the sponsorship - I hope it's fun!

Also noted you've updated your landing photo (in the right hand corner) to the epic steampunk vest outfit. Excellent choice!

Ahh, you noticed. Haha. Yeah, I have to say that's one of the looks I'm most proud of. The pieces were incredibly simple, but when I combined them, it just turned out to be really special! <3

I love love love love that last lapel blazer. I think I want it in my life to be honest. Congrats on the sponsorship. I approve of your lovely disclaimer and feel that it is imperative that bloggers stay true to the integrity of their blogging content and their readers. Many online shops will ask you to be their advertisement and change your entire aesthetic to be an advertising outlet, but you must stay true to the original idea of your blog. Even if that means turning down sponsorships. As said before, I am so glad you are going to stay honest with us(your readers). Much love Anna! :D

Hey, Cece! Yes, that blazer is everrrrythiiing. I'm waiting impatiently for a sale so I can hopefully snag it! Also, thank you for what you said. It means a lot. I have some advertisers contacting me and trying to get me do weekly promotions for them and I just can't do it. I don't want my blog to be cluttered up with advertisements. If they want to pay for add space that's one thing, but to have actual blog posts about them every week? No way. So, yeah, I definitely have high standards for how I want to conduct myself here. <3

Haha <3 I'm not gunna lie, if I can get that one first above all else, I will! I've been looking high and low for something exactly like that (maybe a little lumpier and wider would be nice but whatevs) :D

Loving your shopping list/ wishlist for fall! I am about to publish mine as well! I love the embossed square satchel and it comes in some other lovely colors as well! I may just need to get one to add to my bag wardrobe. Again great choices and I can't wait to read more about Persun since I too have never heard of them!

Rad! I can't wait to see your lists! I love reading other people's wish lists and discovering new items. I guess I should do these wish lists more often, because I have a lot of stuff I'm coveting from many different stores. I figured I would just do XMAS wish lists every year and that would be it, but I might try to expand a bit. :P

Congratz on your sponsorship! I can only hope that one day I'll be as successful of a blogger as you. We have the exact same closet sittuation, haha. No bags, shoes, or tops, but an abundance of dresses and t-shirts. But anyways, I love your picks!

Congrats on your sponsorship, lady :) You picked some really unique pieces. I had no idea about your plan to move! How exciting! Where in Europe are you wanting to go? I'd kill to move even out of this state, much less, the country.
