Disclosure: Thank you to Backcountry and ShopStyle for partnering on today’s post.
Last week I was in the Caribbean seeing nothing but blue skies and sea for miles. Since I’ve been home, I’ve seen nothing but snow, sleet, and ice. I’ll take Caribbean, for $500, Alex. But as long as I continue to live here in Indiana, I’ll continue to experience winter every February. And I’ve got to admit, I do look forward to its snowy scenes. The other thing I look forward to this time of year is how stores start slashing prices on winter coats, boots, sweatshirts, and more! The one I am most excited about? My beloved Backcountry semi-annual sale. If you aren’t familiar with Backcountry, we are about the change that once and for all, because believe me, you want to know about them. Backcountry is a premium outdoor and lifestyle retailer based in Park City, Utah and they carry all of your favorite outdoor brands including but not limited to Patagonia, The North Face, Sorel, Prana, Marmot, Free People and more. The best news? During this sale [it goes until February 28th] they have pieces from these brands up to 50% off! If that doesn’t make you jump in your [waterproof, warm, fuzzy] boots I don’t know what will. Add in the fact that they offer free 2-day shipping over $50 and their customer service is out of this world – seriously, the best I’ve ever experienced, there is no reason why Backcountry shouldn’t be a go-to retailer when giving in to your daily online shopping habits. [PS if you haven’t shopped Backcountry before, they’re giving my readers a discount. Just use code YELLOW15 for 15% off your first purchase at Backcountry.com!]

Let’s talk hair dryers for a hot blow drying second, ladies. It’s a product that 99.9% of us use [I envy the .01% who’s hair has never seen a dryer and must look healthier than a stalk of celery] and it’s a product that 99.9% of us also don’t ever know which one[s] are best for our hair. I’ve totally been that girl who has used the same blow dryer for years and then on that random Monday morning when it decides to go out on me, I run to the nearest Walgreens and snag the cheapest one I can find hoping it lasts me ’til the following Monday morning.
