Prints for Summer

I wore this dress a couple of weeks ago to run errands. Yes, I get dressed up to do mundane tasks. This day, I was taking the dogs to the groomer's, buying groceries & having lunch with my mom.

I absolutely love the print & colors of this dress, but the little cutout in the back is my gave feature. I got this dress from Peebles a while back when I was visiting my hometown. I can't get enough of it! I plan to wear it with wedges the next time I put it on.

We ate lunch at Kona Grill, have any of you eaten here?! It's so delicious & I recommend trying it! Visit the web site: www.konagrill.com/

New: Michael Kors

Okay, so for years I'd been covering a Louis Vuitton MM Neverfull bag. I saw that Michael Kors makes a similar version of the tote- Jet Set Travel Tote. Since I'm being frugal (actually, broke), I decided to purchase the MK tote instead. This one retails at $248, while the LV is about $900. Score! What do you think of these bags?!

Flowers & Pleats

Hi all! I really need to get a new computer, otherwise blogging will continue to be sparse. The last few posts have been done solely from my iPhone & I can't wait to get back to editing pics on my MacBook Pro (hopefully a new one).

Anywho, I wore this outfit for a day of shopping. I wore this skirt a few weeks ago to a blogger meetup, but haven't had a way to do a post for it. That's coming soon! I wanted to wear something colorful since I'm forced to wear neutrals for work. The skirt is from Forever 21 & is a tad too big; should've gotten an xs. This tank has been on the blog before & is from Old Navy. This lovely necklace added the perfect amount of color to pull this look together. I got this at H&M last week & am absolutely in love with it- it's not too heavy or bulky. Of course for a day of running around, I chose flats which this pair is from Target.

Today has been fun & tiring, I need to rest. I will do a post later showcasing all my new goodies. Stay tuned & have a fabulous weekend!!

New: H&M & Peebles

Before you complain to me about my lack of outfit posts, I'd like to apologize. I've been extremely busy & actually have been doing waaaay more shopping than snapping photos. I want to share with you a few of the purchases I've been making lately.

This first photo is of some things I picked up at H&M today. I got this navy dress to wear to work. While I am free to wear what I choose, the policy is to wear lots of neutrals. Since I've grown tired of boring black, I've strayed towards navy as my go-to shade. I've also been wanting some statement jewelry. While I don't quite have the budget for any Kate Spade pieces, I think these will suffice... For now anyway. I got these for a mere $42, which is a steal. I can always count on H&M to keep a little money in my wallet.

This second photo is from a recent trip to Peebles with my mama. She always buys me something when I'm home (can't complain one bit). I've been wanting a pair of white skinny jeans for some time now & couldn't resist settling for this pair (who wants to spend tons on J Brands?!). They fit great & aren't too tight. They are made by A. Byer. Naturally, I need a blouse to pair with these pants. I saw this cute cobalt blue tank, bit it wasn't in my size, so I went to my new staple color- NAVY. The two pair nicely, but I will probably wear a colorful blouse with these pants; well outside of work that is. The lacy blouse is made by a company called Heart Soul (http://heartsoulusa.com). The rainbow colored dress is Calvin Klein. I got this when I was unaware of the neutral dress code at work. Nonetheless, it's a cute dress. I got it for $80, which is a great price considering I saw it today at Dillard's for $118.

I also bought some summer dresses, Jessica Simpson black wedges & lots of Nike Dri-Fit for the gym, but I'll spare you those pics. Hopefully, the dresses & wedges will appear in my next outfit posts.

What do you think about my recent shopping trips & purchases?! What would you pair with the white pants?!

Another Interview Outfit

Lately it seems all I do is head to job interviews. I am definitely not complaining because I need a new job! Last week, I work this dress with my new wedges. I actually found this Calvin Klein dress at Ross a few months ago. Get this, it was only $20!! Not to mention my Steve Madden wedges, that I picked up at Marshalls, were only $31.99!! I love a food deal.

I had been getting into color, but as you see, black has crept it's way back into rotation. I'll try to work on this.

Would you wear this outfit to a job interview?! Have you gotten any good deals on clothing lately?! Share!!
