Spring Style: Picnic in the Park


 I'm SO excited about this spring/summer becuase I'm living so much closer to Central Park.  It used to be a serious trek for me to get up there and I had only been a handful of times but now I'm living 3 blocks away and I run there all the time!  

I'm really looking forward to boozy picnics in the park with my friends this summer, and a fit and flare sun dress is the way to go (in my opinion) for this type of outing.

My Shopping Mission

First of all I hope you all had a fab Easter weekend (and if you don't celebrate, just a fab weekend!).  If you read my post on Friday or follow me on Twitter, you'll notice I talked about a little shopping mission.  I haven't had much extra money for shopping lately but I decided I really wanted to add some spring clothes to my wardrobe and I also wanted some new clothes for my trip.
So, on Friday I set out on a mission:  $150 budget/6 Items/10 Stores

Things I was looking for:
White jeans/pants
Yellow jeans
Summer blazer
New Dress (lace, striped, or just springy in general)
Pink pants
Sandals

Stores on my list:

New York & Co.
Gap
TJ Maxx
Target
Kohl's
JC Penny
Marshall's
Ann Taylor Factory Store
Forever 21
Gap Factory Store
I didn't make it to Target, Kohl's, JC Penny or Marshall's but I did go by Old Navy.

Here's what I ended up with!

New York & Co.

Old Navy

Forever 21

Ann Taylor Factory Store

Gap Factory Store

So I was definitely missing the summer blazer, white jeans, yellow jeans and sandals but I couldn't resist the gingham skirt, the shoes are kind of like sandals, and the yellow sweater kind of replaces the lack of yellow jeans.  I went over my budget by $15 so total I spent $165 but I got some pretty good stuff!  Can't wait to show you all how I'll be styling it.
