Hey everyone! So I'm sitting in the living room in front of the christmas tree my family and I just decorated, (I know, we're a little late on putting it up! LOL) and looking out the window at the blanket of snow that's covering the mountains. I tweeted this a little while ago, but at this moment I feel like I'm living in a fairytale. Anyways, I decided that I needed to vent to you all about a little something. I have a new obsession... well, actually, two new obsessions. And I woke up this morning to see that they came together today in a way that made my heart melt!
If you've seen my room tour video, you may have noticed the unreasonable, impracticable amount of sunglasses I own. (Around the 2:58 mark) This is an obsession that I've had for quite some time. Now that I think of it, when I was 5 I think I had a Gymboree collection of sunglasses. That being said, I've been addicted for awhile. And the fact that it's about to be Christmas has me itching to find that dream pair to ask for this year.
Insert Hautelook.com !! This is my second obsession. I found it not long ago, maybe a few weeks, and have been logging on every morning to see that days sale. If you don't know what hautelook is, here's a little blurp from their website:
In the last two years, over 1,000 high profile brands have chosen HauteLook to host more than 2,500 private events for women, men, kids, home, and beauty.
Get in on the site that has everyone talking: HauteLook was chosen by People as one of the top 15 ways to save money, while Extra television called it a "Virtual Shopaholic Heaven."
See what the buzz is all about! Register now to become a HauteLook member."
In a nutshell, that means that you register a username (it's free!) and log in to see exclusive designer sales. Items are normally 50-70% off which means I can buy twice as many things :) With the holidays right around the corner, I have been finding lots of gifts for friends and family that I otherwise wouldn't have been able to afford.
How do these two things come together? This morning I woke up and did the usual, checked my youtube, my other youtube, twitter, blog, email, glitzy-glam, dailybooth (yet ANOTHER new obsession. If you can't tell, I get obsessed easily. LOL!) and then went on to check justjaredjr, perez, and some other guilty pleasures. When it was finally time to log into hautelook, I gasped and held my breath for awhile before I realized I wasn't breathing. The cause of my sudden excitement? A HauteLook designer SUNGLASSES sale!!!! No Joke, I wanted to scream! Well, I think I did.
There's this Michael Kors pair for sale for $58.00 that is normally $165.00! Talk about a steal! I think I may have found my pair for the year! They're so unique and beautiful *heart melts*
I know these may be silly obsessions, but I've gotten to the point where I check hautelook every single day and they have awesome clothing, accessories, and even beauty and makeup sales. The other day they had a juicy couture sale, and a stila sale! Love!
So tell me, have you ever used hautelook.com? If so, what did you think? Plus, what's your obsession?

My obsession would have to be.....keeping up with the kardashians because I'm watching right now! Haha :)
Great sunglasses! Beautiful and a great deal. I love hautelook. :)
I have been a member on Hautelook for a few months. My most recent purchase was a juicy couture necklace for only $19.99! Although I love sunglasses, my guilty pleasures are jewelry and boots.

I get obsessed easily too, I check ASOS ever morning lol.
If i only lived in the US :(

Hautelook is awesome. I love Tom Ford sunglasses and they sell them CHEAP! It's also great because I can buy clothes from my daughter on there for ridiculously good prices.
wow, I'm definitely going to have to check out hautelook! I'm definitely obsessed with asos.com right now <3
xoxo
I live in Brazil so I have never used HauteLook... :/ but I love knowing what people like to buy and so I have some tips and ideas when I'll buy my own things (:
PS: I liked so much of your blog! kiss, Gabi,

Coincidently my last entry is about hautelook too!
OMG I love hautelook and sunglasses!! My mom says I have way too many , but I'm addicted :) I'm fafigirl14 on twitter and have been fallowing you for almost 2 years now!! I love your videos & ur blog and it would mean the world to me if you fallowed me!! Keep writing & making videos!!!
haha my mother is always yelling at me for buying more and more sunglasses every summer, but I try to reason that they are easily breakable and easy to misplace! But I do love that sale at Hautelook thanks so much for sharing!!!
My obsession? Hmmm, I have so many!
The first thing that comes to my mind is makeup. I get obssesed easily. Lol.

i bought an american apparel dress from hautelook once! love that site :)
Hautelook has contributed to my makeup buying obsession; Urban Decay, Stila, and Pop Beauty too many make up sales lol...
Hey Blair,
If you love Hautelook you should also check out
Beyond the Rack
http://www.beyondtherack.com/member/invite/BB29312
and Ivory Trunk
http://www.ivorytrunk.com/cust/membersignup.asp?rea=lucy.kaleta@gmail.com
I'm addicted to these sites as well. From Hautelook I got Lorac and Kevyn Aucoin makeup and brushes, BCBG clothes, and the most amazing Coach clutch that retails for over $200 in Canada, and I didn't have to pay anywhere near that. I have never been disappointed with my purchases.
From Beyond the Rack I got perfumes (never pay retail again) and UGGS.
I haven't purchased anything from Ivory Trunk yet... but I know it's just a matter of time :)
wow hautelook sounds so cool! Thanks for telling us about it!
I just sighed up!!!! and i love it!!!
I haven't been on that site, no, but I do love bargains on name brand clothing (particularly Ralph Lauren)
I actually stalk hautelook daily for makeup sales! Try Ruelala.com
ruelala.com is another website like that! its amazing!!!! i think elle magazine made it! you should totally check it out!! (and it's totally legit btw)
I've had a look at hautelook before and really love the idea of this website....but I live in the UK so I am gutted that I can't be a part of it! I hope they open up the site to international users soon!!
Have you ever been on beyondtherack.com? It's like the same thing but it has different sales.
Oh and btw, those sunglasses are sooooo cute michael kors is my favorite
I've been on there, but I haven't got anything. I got a bracelet from that jewelmint thing though, I found a coupon LUCKY11 so it was 50% off! So... just like you said, double the amount =P
Whats the chanel thing you have? I would looove to know. Btw, did you buy those sunglasses? To tell you the truth, I think they are a little cute, VERY unique, but it depends on your face, not a lot of glasses look good on me, very rarely do I find one that I like, and i believe that while more money means better quality, glasses break easily, or get lost or scratched and I don't want to pay a lot. But also, I think I will get a good pair as soon as I find one that looks good on me =) I have one by daisy fuentes that I got from marshals for $6!! I love it, it fits me perfectly.
Anyway, sorry that was long, but thats my two cents on sunglasses =P

I might sign up, but just because, as you said in this post, it's "Virtual Shopaholic Heaven!" I think that got me really reading!
:D/ME!!
Another one is beyondtherack.com - it's my favorite. I check it obsessively at 11am every day!

I swear by HauteLook! I think it makes me spend more money because I can't pass up on the sales but I, like you, check it everyday! If you love Hautelook try Ideeli, Beyond the Rack, and Rue La La! All great shopping clubs!
