Shopping updates!

There are quite a few things on my shopping/wish list lately. With Spring right around the corner (it's in the 50s today in Columbus! WOOHOO!), my wardrobe is really lacking some warmer, casual things. I have tons of work clothes, yet I still lack some key pieces.

Here are some things that I have bought in the last week:

Tights, Nordstrom, $8.90
Shoes, Hot Kiss, $24.99



Flower ring, Forever21, $4.80


Hoop earrings, Forever 21, $2.80
- I haven't figured out how to wear these yet. They are slightly larger in my ears than they looked on the rack. I dreamed of wearing them with my coral dress, but I might have to save that for spring/summer months. -



Here are some things on my wishlist. I do have some pretty specific things that I need, but things that I want are more general. :)

Tanks
Casual tee's
Shorts
Dresses/skirts - For work and for casual wear
Plaid tunic
Shoes
- Brown flats/wedges
- Yellow pumps
- Silver peep toes (to replace the BCBG pair)
- Booties (to replace the Bongo pair)
- Boots (to replace the Steve Madden pair)
- White flats
Accessories
- Brown belt
- White belt
- Rings
- Headbands/hair accessories


The list goes on and on. I keep adding things. There are tons of things I am looking at for the house and for the dogs also.

March 5th & 6th, 2010

I am starting to work more now, so hopefully you will be seeing more of me and my outfits. :)



Shirt, from Sears, forget the brand
Dress (as skirt), Forever 21
Belt, Forever 21
Tights, Nordstrom
Shoes, Hot Kiss



Here is an up close shot of the tights and the shoes. I desperately needed some new black flats - the ones from Wal-Mart were just not cutting it lately. I picked these up at Famous Footwear for about $30 after tax. They are nice, I just need to break them in (they rub on the ankles).


Overall, I REALLY liked this outfit! I have seen some gals post using a dress as a skirt, and I couldn't figure out how I could pull something like that off.




I forgot to catch a photo of my work outfit for the 6th, but I basically have worn this before here (the first outfit). Only, this time, I wore nude fishnets (Hue), and my new black shoes that I wore on the 5th.

Everyone likes almost blinking pictures, right? I didn't notice this until it was too late and I was already home, changed, and in my popason chair uploading these pictures. Oh well.

I felt so good in this outfit. I don't know if it was the foxy skirt or the new shoes, but I felt great, and it showed in my work today! These are also the shoes that my friend Katie got me for my birthday. :) Gorgeous, huh?

Dress, Halogen
Cardigan, Susina
Pearls, vintage
Nude fishnets (you can't see them very well), Hue
Shoes, Wal-Mart
Belt (took this off due to pain in my ribs...), Forever 21


This was inspired by a look (that I can't seem to find right now) by Kimberly at Fab Finds Under $50.

I never thought to put the coral and gray together, regardless of these pieces sitting so close together in the closet.

Cami, BP by Nordstrom
Cardigan, Forever 21
Pants, Merona (Target brand) I think
Shoes, Wal-Mart



Excuse the crazy wild hair, this was taken after work. We were already running late getting out of the house, then I couldn't get one of my contacts in my eye to save my life. I think it took like ten minutes. Urghh!

February 12th, 2010



Cami, BP by Nordstrom
Dress, Frills by Nordstrom
Cardigan, Susina
Belt, Forever 21
Tights and socks, Nordstrom

I really loved this outfit, but I think it would have been better with simple black ballet flats.

However, these little sock liners are wonderful! Not only do they help my feet from smelling in my work shoes, but they are super cute! We have them at work right now for like $5 in leopard and zebra (what I am wearing). I love them!

Cami, BP by Nordstrom
Cardigan and bracelets, Forever21
Pants, The Limited
Shoes, Report


It was a good hair day. We also had about 9.5inches of snow fall overnight, so walking to the car, I forgot my boots and ended up soaking my feet. I had to go back into the house, change socks, change into my boots, and grab some towels to dry my work shoes.

I really liked the red shoes with the outfit. :)

Can you tell by the look on my face I was completely dead today? I had probably four hours of sleep and had to work all day. Not really much else to say about the day... :)

I am obsessed with dresses or skirts with pockets. I can not get enough of them. I was thrilled when I found this dress at work that I have been eyeballing ON SALE! Yay! I snatched it up in a heartbeat. Then I realized it was dry clean only.. urgh. I try not to buy things that are dry clean only just because of the hassle it is for me (without a car and husband that works til 5pm) to get things to the cleaners. Oh well, I still love it!
