Light Denim, Dark Denim & Stripes

I wore this outfit on Friday to work but I think it can also double as weekend wear!  Who doesn't love a dual purpose outfit?  I know I do.

I hope you all had a great St. Patrick's Day (if you celebrate)!  I celebrated a friends birthday and we went to a couple of Irish bars in town.  There were so many people out and about!

#StyleMeMarch: Bought on Sale

Yesterday's Style Me March was "bought on sale" and while a lot of things in my wardrobe have been purchased on sale (I'm a sucker for a good bargain!) these are two of my favorite recent items: my orange Zara blazer and my lace J. Crew tank.  The weather was so amazing yesterday I couldn't help but pull out a skirt!

(sorry for the squints it was still a little bright in the shade...!)

I hope you all had a splendid weekend!

Hot Pink in the Snow

I scored this hot pink J.Crew sweater for under $20 a couple of weeks ago (they were having an extra 40% off sale items at the store!) and I couldn't have been more excited.  The irony is, I had just told the bf the night before, " I want a really bright pink sweater.  And I mean bright pink."  He just kind of laughed and said the usual, "Ok babe."

So I went on a mission.  I scoped out a few websites and with no luck landed in the J.Crew store the next day at lunch.  And there it was.  Last one.  My size.  Under $20.  Whoa.

So here it is, in all it's glory, with a gorgeous snowy background.  Oh and don't worry, I didn't tromp around in the wellies all day - I wore the below flats at work.

Happy Monday!

"Thank you for shopping J. Crew..."

"Your closet will thank you too."
I'm sure it will, but what about my wallet?  J. Crew won again...  I just couldn't help the sweet deal they e-mailed me last week.  So there goes my shopping ban.  But it's ok because I'm going to wrap everything up and put it under the tree :) [promise].

Anyway, here was my cozy little outfit for last Friday.  Check out my sweet manicure - my mom got me the at home gel manicure kit (Red Carpet Manicure) for my birthday.  I.  Love.  It.

Playing Catch Up

The "consequences" of disappearing for a weekend?  Catching up on all the lovely blogs I follow and adding a post or two.  I spent the weekend away at a friends cabin in the middle of no where and it was the best mental break I could have asked for!  Work has been insane and it's only going to get crazier the next couple of months.  So here's to a little catch up sesh!  And an outfit post!

Seriously dying.

I went on this little bargain shoppping binge about two weeks ago and snagged three great new pairs of shoes for super cheap. Wanted was having a sale (and still is, actually) buy two get one free - seriously? A pair of shoes for FREE?? So I had to go for it.

I first spied the oxfords on 9 to 5 Chic and instantly fell in love. I liked the bone color the best. I feel like it will go with more outfits. The cheetah loafers were a J. Crew inspired piece and I'm a sucker for buckles so the brown heels had to be ordered too.

What are your favorite trends in fall shoes?
