It's A Dangerous Love Affair...

I want this...
Tucker for Target Dress
I've always had a dangerous love affair with prints, so when I saw that tons of the ladies on Katy's 'Spring Trend' post for Friend Friday. I knew that florals would be my new obsession for this season.

Since today is 'BLUE' day in the Color Rotation, I decided to rock this lovely floral:

Floral..Slacks-Thrifted/Pumps-Payless
I scored this for 99 cent on one of my thrifty escapades! And it's Liz Claiborne. Now back in my hey day, I wouldn't have looked twice at a Liz piece but now that I know the true value of fashion, I wouldn't pass up on a piece like this-and the floral print makes it all the more breathtaking!  I loved how the golden flowers contrasted so perfectly with the dark hues. I added a cognac belt and mustard beads to spruce it up a bit and bring out the colors even more.


My slacks have a slight burgundy pinstripe in them that matches perfectly with the burgundy flowers in my shirt.

See:


How do you rock your florals?

And after you've shared with me how you like to rock your florals, go and grab
The Social Network because it's going to be a rainy night (well in Virginia it is). I know, I know this is an old movie but since I only share movies with you once a week, my list is hella backed up!! Anywho, the BF and I were on the fence about this one because we thought, 'well who the hell wants to watch a movie about Facebook'? We were very pleasantly surprised and we had our eyes glued to the screen the entire time.

The Social Network

MY RATING 9.3/10

If you're not into movies, go grab yourself a good book. This week I'm reading book #7 of 52-
Love Thy Sister, Watch Thy Back by Denise Campbell. Sooooo riveting. If you like drama filled novels, this is definitely for you.

  2. Yep, a whopping 99 cents. I've gotten into the habit of only looking for the items with a 99 cent tag on them-with the exception of bags and shoes of course. I've found some really great things too!
