What I Wore: Ashley’s Wedding!

May 11, 20151 Comment

Remember when I blogged about my Girl’s Weekend? Well, my tell-it-like-it-is friend, Ashley finally married her longtime sweetheart, Patrick in a beautiful wedding that was fun and lively, just like the two of them.

Doesn’t she look stunning?! 🙂 Her wedding dress is by Allure Bridal!

Not nearly as exciting, my dress was an Ann Taylor purchase a few years ago from Greene Street Consignment, then tailored 🙂

I Want A Cheap Romp…

On Pinterest, I saw this sweet little number. So I went to the site, Rose Gal, and I might never be the same (we’ve heard that before…)The floral pattern, the drapey casual feel, the long sleeves, all of it became absolutely irresistible to me. And then when I saw it was only $14.15, it really sealed the deal, in terms of being classified as “lustworthy”. The best part is that this was not the only cute item. Let me show you…

1//2//3//4//5//6

Keep in mind that these were only on page 1 out of 7 pages!! They are the perfect summer coverup, casual outing, or edgy choice for a fun occasion. They are all around $20, so at this price, you could get them all! Just sayin’…

J. Crew Factory Shopping Cart

April 21, 20151 Comment

I keep things in my cart for a really long time. Sometimes I buy them, and sometimes it makes me feel better to know they’re there. Like an old friend…

The two things that are in my J. Crew Factory cart right now are as follows:

Factory Printed Linen-Cotton Mini Skirt

And these:

Factory Drapey Pant

I know the skirt will fit, because I have the same one in solid black:

But the pants, I’m so hesitant. I need to try things on in-store first, especially when it comes to pants.

So if J Crew Factory continues their 50% almost everything sale and the items I actually want are included in the almost everything, then you might see me sporting some new bottoms! Until then,

Happy Hunting!

Some for You, Some for Me…

I had a HUGE shopping trip for work this week:

Yep, 7 carts. And that was only 1/2 of the stuff! 🙂 #homegoodshappy

That meant that I came in contact with lots and lots and lots of beautiful things. So, the obvious outcome was that I got a few little gems for myself 🙂

I spied this acid-wash wonder as I was looking in the mirror trying on something else. She peeked out from behind me, I spun around and quickly promised myself if it was $20 or less, she would be mine. Well, feast your eyes:

Yes, that’s how my mind works on an unintentional shopping trip…this is why I am dangerous 🙂

I’ve always loved pigs since I was little, so this sweet gold rimmed jewelry dish (for $4.99) was the perfect grown-up homage to my childhood love.

I’m so glad I can benefit from Jessica Simpson making the switch from music to shoes. These have satisfied my craving for *mildly* comfortable open-toed booties in a neutral color.

And finally, this hopeful message in gold text ($16.99) just made me smile. I really feel like it’s true for me, lately 🙂 I’m really glad I took this photo when I was looking super glamorous in the reflection…

Side Note: It took me over an hour for all of my carts to be rung up, so when they got down to the last few items, I was so ready to get out of there. Anyway, there was a mirror without a visible price. While the clerk and I both searched for a tag, I half-joked that I would pay $75 for it (I estimate they would have charged $124.99). And you know what, the guy made me a tag for $75.99! Ha! Seriously, ask and you shall receive!

As a side note, WordPress has updated their setup and it’s got me all confused. The photos are small, so I’m going to play around this week and try to figure this out. In the meantime, get out your magnifying glass to enjoy these outfits 🙂

It’s no wonder I posted about this pair of pants. Love that windowpane!

Green Pencil Skirt: Banana Republic Factory

Cardigan: RED brand via TJ Maxx. When I bought this, it was on clearance for $9.99. The satin ribbon trim was coming off, but once I had my tailor fix it up, it was good as new. I love that it is soft like a loungey shirt, but fitted like a blazer. Perfect. I wish I could buy 10 more 🙂
