Victoria's Secret PINK and Major League Baseball Team Up

Victoria's Secret PINK and Major League Baseball have teamed up together to create a new line of clothing for baseball season. The line includes t-shirts, hoodies, and sweatpants. Word has it that the first six teams to offer merchandise are Boston Red Sox, Chicago Cubs and White Sox, New York Mets and Yankees, and Philadelphia Phillies.

The Victoria's Secret store in Woodfield Mall had Chicago Cubs and White Sox items and they are all super cute! So far you can't buy any of the items online but hopefully they will be offering that option soon for out of town fans.

Herb Garden


Thinking of starting an herb garden? It is easy and fun to grow your own herb garden and with the help of these beautiful pots from Crate & Barrel you will be adding style to your mini garden. The pots are a set of three white clay pots with the corresponding herb painted on the front. The price of the pots is $19.95.

The wire caddy is an additional $29.95 and isn't exactly necessary in the grand scheme of things but makes it handy to transport the pots from outdoors to your kitchen. The caddy is hand-formed with a bronze finish.

To top off your herb garden you will want to purchase the chalkboard herb markers. Once again they won't make your herbs grow faster or taste better but you wouldn't make a sundae and leave of the cherry topping. The cost is $3.95 each.

Finally, you can also pick up your seeds at Crate & Barrel. The set includes Parsley, Heirloom Strawberries, Oregano, and Basil. You can always pick up a pack of seeds from any local store but why not just make it a one stop trip. The cost is $7.95 each.
