It's Been A While...

Hello and Happy Monday my loves!!!

I know it's been a while. 

I've totally missed visiting and interacting with each and every one of you but sometimes a break is very much needed. I do appreciate the fact that you all have continued to visit and comment though. 

It means everything and more to me. 

Now...on to what you came here for...

This fit...

Well this skirt, in particular, is EVERYTHING to me. It's one of the few items that I actually spent more than $5 on. Haha! How cheap does that make me sound!? 

Now don't get it twisted-the skirt was on sale AND I had a coupon for it so I kinda had no choice.

I even got a size too big because it was the last one left and I was that much in love with it.

I had no earthly idea what to pair it with so I reached for my old faithful chambray and from there I went. Because the skirt has elastic in the waist I paired the 'fit with a printed belt to sorta cover up the waistband. Please excuse my facial expression though, I think I was in the middle of yelling some sort of expletive to my camera because it was hot and as you can see the shots were coming out a bit blurry.


I desperately need a new camera. I'm patiently awaiting Black Friday so that I can stand in the lines to get one. Then I won't have to worry about my pics coming out like this anymore...

I was almost ready to end this post by saying that I didn't have on anything thrifted but then I remembered this vintage Dooney & Bourke purse. It has become my all time fave because it's so versatile and can literally be worn with anything. What a great $4.98 investment!

Purse-Thrifted (Dooney & Bourke)/Chambray+Belt-NY&Co.
Oh yeah, I can't forget about these wedges. They were Buy 1, get 1 for a penny at Wet Seal so I purchased these and a cognac colored pair for $15 last summer. I loves a great deal.


Now tell me...are any of you guilty of purchasing something that's not your size only because it's the last one left?

Be honest-I can't be the only one who does that!!!

LOL

Thanks for reading!

  3. You're not the only one! I've purchased shoes that were too small because they were too cute and the last pair. Unfortunately, I never had the chance to wear them :(

  6. I've done it too. Dah well. I figure as long as I can find a seamstress and it was a bargain, I'm getting it.

    On another note, Target is doing a Black Friday in July. They will be releasing deals on Friday and Saturday and I'm sure a camera will be one of them. You can sign-up to get an alert here http://www.target.com/np/target-black-friday/-/N-5q0f2
