The Best Holiday Gifts from Amazon
Coat: Amazon the Drop // Dress: Amazon // Headband: Amazon
After an amazing Thanksgiving with my family, I took off and headed to the coast for a few days over the weekend in Port Aransas, TX. I’ve only been there to have lunch once and thought it would be a great time to push the reset button before going into the end of the year. It was lovely, and I’ll be sharing an entire guide for the area soon for you guys! From where to stay, what to do and best places to eat - stay tuned for the upcoming post for a weekend getaway.
The weather was mostly cloudy throughout the weekend and a little bit chilly during parts of the day. There was also a good amount of rain on Saturday so I made sure to bring my new Amazon the Drop plush coat to stay warm. This coat is hands down my favorite winter find this year! It’s so soft you’ll want to snuggle up to and gives a very luxurious look. It runs on the larger side so I would order one size down if you want a more tailored look. I paired it with this cherry red dress (also worn a few months back here) and a pretty red braided headband. You could easily swap the boots for a pair of pumps or pretty metallic sandals for a party look. If you are unfamiliar with Amazon the Drop, it’s an influencer-based collection of products. I love the quality. I’ve ordered a number of items and each time am pleased with how well it’s made. I do find most of the sizes run a little large so keep that in mind as you make a purchase.
It’s no secret that I love Amazon. From their incredibly streamlined delivery and return policy to the quality of the Amazon the Drop collections that highlight influencers, time and time again I am impressed by what they have created in the retail space. To think that they single-handedly changed the book and printing industry! I’m overjoyed day after day with my Audible subscription, endless tv options on Amazon Prime, and getting packages regularly that have that little smile icon on them. With all of the amazing sales and deals happening I had to share my favorite Amazon finds. I’m dating things back over the past year with each item being something I’ve either used, purchased for someone else, or currently have on my own wish list.
My top products I’ve bought this year on Amazon include this plush coat I’m wearing in these pictures, this satin top I have in red great for work or party, my subscription for Nespresso capsules I get delivered weekly, and my Audible subscription. I recently picked up this brownie pan for my dad for Christmas that makes all edges! I also ordered my momma a pair of satin pj’s. You can’t go wrong grabbing someone a new pair of slippers. Below you’ll find even more items to shop!

Rounding up a few of my outfits recently. I love wearing shades of pink and thought it would be fun to share them all in one post with you guys. Here are 10 outfits to inspire you to wear this adorable color!
When I find a piece of jewelry I love I usually wear it on repeat. Recently I came across this pair of tear-drop earrings with Bottega vibes and I cannot seem to take them off for anything but to go to sleep. They’ve been worn to meetings, casual Saturdays, photoshoots and even the gym. They seem to go with everything and because they are 14k gold-plated, they don’t seem to irritate my ears. I have really sensitive skin and these babies really do the trick.
For the past few weeks, I’ve had major baby brain. I’m eight months pregnant and we are counting down to delivery at this point. We’ve elected in this pregnancy to deliver the baby naturally with a midwife instead of a hospital birth. It’s been such a better experience than meeting with an OBGYN. Our midwife has longer conversations with us, explains every single test or procedure, and gives us options. It’s a freedom I did not know was possible! As we prepare this final month I thought I would share a few things that are going to ease the delivery and make the experience the most successful possible.
Cannot believe I am almost 8 months pregnant at this point! It’s been challenging these past few weeks to get dressed but I found a few pieces from a company called Oyoangle that narrowed it down for simple maternity styling. First up is this long-sleeved mocha body con dress with tons of ruching on the sides to give a good fit but flexibility in the growing bump. I love the way it hugs curves and the fabric is a stretchy cotton that breathes nicely. I am still wearing heels but this would look just as cute with a pair of sneakers or ballet flats. Adding pops of pink like this lipstick, purse, earrings, and hot pink pumps gives an otherwise neutral color a nice punch.
Happy New Year! I know we are already over a week into 2024, but I took some time over the first week to set intentions for the year. I hope each of you had an amazing time over the holidays and found ways to celebrate with your loved ones. Before fully moving into the new year I wanted to take a few minutes and highlight last year and share a little about my journey during 2023.
For today’s look, I wore a beautiful cobalt blue Amazon one-shoulder maxi dress which is a total steal. I comes in other colors but this one is on sale for $15. I love how it’s not a maternity dress, but has lots of stretch and room for the bump. I know I’ll be able to wear it at a later point in time. This would also be perfect for a winter wedding if you are attending any this season. I paired it with beautiful Kelly green mules (found an almost identical pair here on Amazon) and gorgeous Emerald green teardrop earrings. One way to make an outfit look upscale is to add a piece of dramatic statement jewelry.
It’s party season and I’m here for it! I love the holidays and love getting dressed up for any occasion. This year I’ve been really gravitating to all things sparkly and figured it was time to shine bright. Recently Grace Karin sent me a few new pieces that I’m just dying to share with you guys like this pretty peplum lace top in today’s post. I paired it with a short sequin skirt and bow-embellished heels. I love the simplicity of this look and you can mix and match it with so many other items to give you multiple outfits.
I absolutely love this time of year and getting to dress the Bump has been so much fun! If you follow my Instagram account, you will see tons of outfits I’ve been wearing lately like this short black dress styled two ways or this adorable pink dress that gives so much room for my growing belly. I had a few requests for styling tips and now that I’m in my second trimester I actually have a bump to show off! Currently, I’m sizing up one size in anything I buy so I have room for my larger boobs (yes they’ve jumped two cup sizes) and waistline. I’ve also invested in a couple of maternity bras that will convert later for nursing. It’s good to have those staples on hand so you don’t feel uncomfortable underneath your clothes.
What a week already! Loved getting to shop lots of Amazon Favorites this week for Prime Day Big Deals and looking forward to beginning my holiday season shopping. Have you already started rounding things up for Christmas? I’ll be curating a Holiday Shop this season so stay tuned for updates and make sure you are subscribed to my newsletter! You’ll be the first to know all the best deals and finds. Today I’m sharing a new brand I’ve been working with called Zesica! I have several pieces like this coral henley top, this adorable comfy oversized two-toned sweatshirt, and this striped sweater that is my favorite stripe sweater so far this season.
If you missed yesterday’s post, I rounded up a ton of my favorite fashion, home, and baby items. Today I wanted to narrow down the focus and share my must-have list and favorites I’ve ever bought on Amazon for you guys! Here are my top 10 Amazon Prime Big Deals.
Fall is here officially and I thought it would be the perfect time to share a few basics you need for your closet right now! Right now the colors oatmeal, mocha, and mustard are in! As much as I love tons of color I also love to reach for the basics on days I want to feel cozy. A few things I recently added and love are this soft chenille oatmeal sweater, this mocha-colored sweater dress, a walnut faux leather skirt, an off-the-shoulder top, and a black long-sleeve basic tee! You can grab all of these items from Amazon and they are super affordable. I’ve had these tan boots and a Coach purse (an old one, but a newer version in the same color here) on repeat as my main accessories lately. Don’t forget to grab a hat to top it all off! You can shop all my favorites on my Amazon storefront or the LTK App here! Happy Shopping and I’d love to know which look is your favorite!
We are halfway through July and halfway through the Summer so I wanted to share a quick round up of my swimsuit collection. Where did you get that suit is one of the most frequently asked questions I get in my DM’s when I post wearing one! I love all different kinds of styles from tankinis to bikinis. A lot of the suits I’ve been wearing lately have extra support in the chest area and tummy control so you can look and feel your best when you are at the beach or the pool. Below is a list of my favorites and even more styles over on my Amazon Storefront! Enjoy and make sure to tag #threeheelclicks when you post a picture wearing one!
Amazon Prime Day starts tomorrow and ends on July 12th. Whether you are one that loves a good deal or wants all the things it’s one of the best days of the year to shop all your favorite things on Amazon. Sales are so much bigger and deeper discounting on things you probably buy every day. I have a ton of items already linked in my Amazon Storefront but wanted to highlight a few things here on the blog. I have a couple of lists going like my Beauty Things List, Home Essentials List, Summer Accessories List and so much more.
Here are a few last-minute Amazon things you can add to your cart for the upcoming holiday. Love these rasberry-colored shorts (I also have them in denim), this adorable striped duffle bag, these slides, and my favorite which is this bikini. I also love this red halter one-piece swimsuit! You can shop all my favorites below and don’t forget to check out my Amazon Storefront.
Fourth of July is right around the corner which means outdoor entertaining for so many! I wanted to share our backyard with you guys before we move. We are in the process right now of packing up (check out here) and moving our stuff to our new home. So excited! I cannot wait to unfold the design projects that will be coming your way. Today I rounded up some of my favorite things for outdoor entertaining.
Wanted to give you guys something new this week and a round of Amazon dresses was long overdue! When it’s hot outside I reach for flowy dresses instead of tight-fitting clothes. It’s so humid here in College Station that I need a break from feeling like my clothes are stuck to my skin! Today I’m sharing a few of my absolute favorite pieces from this season. You can shop all of them on my Amazon Storefront here.
I was so excited when he agreed and reached out to a few vendors to put together this curated list of men’s staple pieces. Each item is made with high-quality materials. Marshall has worn all of them and they are comfortable and breathable. All of the pieces are also available on Amazon so it makes shipping a breeze. Big shout out to Marshall for helping with this and for being an incredibly handsome model!
Wow! What a weekend! After taking this last year to really ground myself and work on transformation from the inside, I finally made it out for the Laura Ashley 70th Anniversary Event with Growing Up Texas! It was so incredible to meet Jennifer and Mike who restored a vintage Grand Station with Laura Ashley printed fabrics. The event was hosted at one of my favorite local hotels, The Stella and catered by Campfire Grill. The whole experience was out of a storybook and unfolded beautifully as we mixed and mingled on Saturday afternoon.
Had to share my favorites with you guys! I’m super picky when it comes to beauty products because I have incredibly sensitive skin and hair. I’ve been trying a few new things out over the past few months and here is part of my current beauty routine. You can grab the links for all of them on Amazon!
Also, if you recently missed the announcement Three Heel Clicks Boutique is dropping new apparel and a coffee mug! You can check it out here. I’m loving the new “You Can Do Hard Things” mauve sweatshirt. Mine arrives Monday and I cannot wait to show you guys! You can purchase yours here and make sure to tag @threeheelclicks and use hashtag #youcandohardthings. You are amazing!
Yes, you heard me. This boss babe right here is intentionally going slower in life. For the first time, ever. I’ve put extra time in between tasks. I’ve taken things off my to-do list. I’ve spent the last few months asking myself what is really important. I’ve gone inward to figure out my priorities. I’ve taken tons of time to journal, reflect and pray. The thing I’ve learned is that we can become addicted to anything including activity. Next time you are wondering what you should be doing with an extra five minutes? Breathe. Yep. Sit down and take 5 minutes to just breathe. I promise your entire life will change from implementing this one tactic. Your heart rate will be calmer. Your thoughts will be clearer. You will feel less rushed. You will be recharged.
If I’m not doing at least the above, then it’s hard for me to be focused. I clean up my environment and raise my vibes. It’s not always easy and sometimes it takes reminders and alarms on my phone to get all the things done. The truth is, we are all human and we need a little help sometimes. That’s exactly why I created Glow Up. It’s a two-day course that will help you get a 60-day plan together. I show you how to do all of the above in a way that works for you!
For today’s look, I paired the cutest blazer and fleece-lined jeans from Luvamia available on Amazon. I threw on a V-neck tank top and my new favorite two-toned pumps that are so ladylike from Elizee’s. Designed with ultimate comfort in mind! I think this heel height is perfect for a workday or luncheon. I finished things off with one of my favorite black purses from Michael Kors complete with gold hardware that matches my Kendra Scott gold filigree earrings.
I cannot believe it’s already 2023! Happy New Year! I pulled together this adorable look together earlier in the week. I rang in the new year at home with my boyfriend this year. It was heavenly and we were asleep long before midnight. Sometimes sleep is the best thing you can do. Anyhow, for fashion’s sake I pulled together this look to share with y’all. I wore a satin black dress with this elastic belt I have in a couple of colors. The dress is super silky and not see through. Also lightweight enough to convert to a nightgown and sleep in. Elisabet Tang recently sent me these heels and I think they are the classiest pair of shoes! Love them! I added a fur jacket I’ve had since college and beautiful statement earrings. Shop the entire look here and don’t forget to subscribe to my newsletter this week. I’ve got a sneek peak coming your way of something special!
Happy New Year! So excited about the things to come in the next few weeks! We are already a third of the way through this 30 Days of Outfits series! I shot a bunch of looks over the holidays and cannot wait to share them with you. Today I’m wearing this sexy form-fitting green dress from Luvamia (available on Amazon). I love love love the way it fits! The slit is in the perfect spot and the dress comes in a few different colors. I paired it with satin and rhinestone embellished mules and added a pair of sparkly statement earrings. You can shop the entire look here!
Also, I just launched a one-hour photography course that is complete with your own Lightroom preset which I used to edit the photos you see here. Treat yourself and your Instagram feed this year by learning how to take incredible pictures using your cell phone!
XOXO Crystal
I hope you guys are having an incredible week so far. Can you believe 2022 is just days from being over? I’ll be doing some recaps shortly but wanted to share a quick 30 Days of Outfits post. I paired this gorgeous burgundy dress with matching burgundy pumps from Jenn Ardor. I love the lace sleeves on this form-fitting dress made out of the softest cotton. The sleeves are comfortable and this look is perfect for Valentine’s Day which will literally be right around the corner. I wore it with a pair of gold filagree hoops from Kendra Scott and threw on this cream coat from HM. Such a timeless and classic look! This outfit is also perfect for being a wedding or event guest, a gala, and a date! You can shop the entire look here!
For today’s look of 30 Days of Outfits, I’m sharing a really cute girls’ night out or date night look. I paired this black lantern sleeve sweetheart neckline top (that I also have in pink see here) with a suede-like mini skirt. Platforms are really in right now and this is such an affordable option. I grabbed them in black but there are so many other colors. I added a feminine clutch and a pair of statement earrings.
Today I’m sharing a pretty laid-back look for Day 5 of 30 Days of Outfits! I love this pinstripe blouse paired with a cropped tank. I wore it a few days ago in this post with a skirt but wanted to show you another option for both tops. I love the detail on the sleeves of the overshirt. I added a pair of flared jeans and then wore the same pointy black pumps seen in yesterday’s post. When you are wearing flared pants look for a slender or pointy-toe shoe. It elongates the legs and gives it a chic feel! Finally, I added my favorite baguette from Ewelyni (use code THREEHEELCLICKS50 for 50% off your first order).
I’ve had so much fun getting this new series of 30 Days of Outfits started! I hope you all enjoy it as much as I do. Today I’m sharing the sweetest little pink sweater (similar by the same company here) and a flirty short skirt from Amazon. Yesterday I shared a really classic Fall look and today I’m going with more girly vibes. This time of year the temperatures in Texas swing from freezing to hot and humid. We typically have milder cold weather months. I added accessories with gold hardware like this adorable pink purse and these neutral studded flats. Finally, I wore a pair of really sweet floral earrings sent over by my friends at Amavia. I love their pieces so much!
Black Friday is less than a week away and I’m so excited about all of the goodies going on sale this year! I’ve been pulling together a few looks to share with you guys for holiday outfits including this gorgeous velvet dress from Asvivid. I just received a few new pieces from them and love the softness of the fabric. This dress would be perfect for Thanksgiving when you need to let your belt loop out. I paired it with one of my favorite pairs of shoes from Amazon the Drop and a velvet braided headband for a touch of glam. I also really love this black jumpsuit if you are looking for a great party option and this cobalt blue dress for a work event! You can shop a ton of options below!
Living in one of the hottest states in the US, sundresses have become my go-to for the Spring and Summer seasons. They are easy to style and require just adding a few accessories for a quick grab-and-go option. They pack nicely for trips and can be layered over swimwear or worn with strappy sandals for dinner. They also are super comfortable on hot days instead of having shorts ride up and stick to a hot car seat. There are so many cute styles to choose from like a pretty milkmaid dress like this one. Or you can opt for a dress that has a beautiful neckline and a side slit with just the right amount of leg. If you are looking for something more modest, try this pretty floral dress that hits at the perfect midi length. You can shop tons of other options below!
