Summer Sales and a Great Haul!

I hope everyone had a great Fourth of July! It was really nice to have the day off and hard to get back to work today. On Tuesday I went to the mall with my sister and my mother and they were having some amazing sales! I apologize in advance for the horrible photo quality, I took the photos on my phone. 

 

I was looking for zebra print jeans after I read Confessions of a Shopaholic. It seemed strange, yet interesting. Right before I went on vacation I saw an adorable pair of zebra jeans at Guess before I went on vacation but they were a little pricey so I figured I would wait until they went on sale. Since I was at the mall on Tuesday, I figured I would check in on my pants and see if they were on sale and they were! The sale price was still a little expensive but they were offering an extra percentage off sale items and they happened to have my size so I couldn’t say no! I can’t wait to wear them!

I also got lucky enough to pick up a few items from Lord and Taylor. They were offering some great discounts and I got a few great BCBG pieces.

I was watching Pretty Little Liars a few weeks ago and fell in love with a top that Hanna was wearing. I know they usually dress her character in BCBG (a favorite designer of mine) and immediately went looking for it and found it! I would have loved the snake skin top but was able to snag it in yellow! I am really excited to wear it with the teal skirt for a great colorblocking effect. I have those Michael Kors sandals in black already, and these are my sister’s but I definitely plan to wear them a lot. 

 

I also got this adorable dress that I wore to work today. I paired it with a coral cardigan from Banana Republic, a yellow tanktop from Old Navy (because the back is open) and neon coral flip flops from Old Navy. I also wore a bracelet from Forever 21 and a gold and bronze necklace I got when I was on vacation.

We made a stop at Forever 21 and I got some great basics that I can’t wait to wear. I am super happy about the maxi dress because they are usually too long but this wasn’t. I got a teal button down to wear under a blazer and a mint cardigan. I love to buy the tank tops at Forever 21 because they are only $2.50. They don’t usually last beyond a few washes, but they come in a ton of colors and are perfect to wear under sheer tops. I also got 3 skinny belts for $4.50!

Back on Track!

I know I said I was planning to redo my blog, but unfortunately I can’t find anyone who actually has photoshop skills and wants to help me. I reached out to someone and asked for help and needless to say, she didn’t really seem like she wanted to help me. So I am still on the hunt to make some changes. 

As I previously mentioned, I have started a new job, and have been super crazy busy with it. It is a great place to work and I even get an office!! (I have to share it, but still!). It is definitely still an adjustment to get back to working a 9-5 and everyone here works really hard. I have never been part of a marketing team, so this is definitely new, but I really like that I still have a lot of PR focus (outreach, social media) and I get to learn a ton of new things (SEO, HTML). It was really hard for me to leave my last job because I had great coworkers and I miss them everyday, especially at lunch but I know this was the best move for my career. 

Even though I have been gone awhile, I come bearing outfit photos! These are some highlights over the last couple weeks.

The first one is a casual fun outfit that is great for work. I paired a MANGO blue top with a contrasting tan and yellow cropped jacket from Ann Taylor Loft. Since I can wear jeans to work, I just threw on a pair of comfy Express jeggings. I accessorized by wearing beaded tribal bracelets from Old Navy in orange and tan, and a Burberry watch. Not shown, but I am wearing tan flats from Banana Republic as well. The key piece here was definitely the cropped jacket (yes, I know my sleeves are uneven, this was at the end of the day and my sister took the picture and didn’t tell me to fix it).

My sister and I went to the Michael Jordan steakhouse so of course I felt the need to wear a blazer! While you can’t tell in this photo, the blazer is actually a orange-red. I purchased it from Bebe a few weeks back and have been waiting for the perfect chance to wear it. I decided to get a little crazy and wore a dalmation printed Forever 21 top underneath. I think it definitely complimented the blazer. I wore a pair of dark jeans (my sister’s) and topped the outfit off with a silver Guess necklace, silver gemstone bracelets (different sizes) and dark gray Banana Republic gem flats.

This final outfit is another blazer outfit. I can’t help it, I’m obsessed! I chose a black and white striped French Connection shirt and threw a blue/black cropped school-uniformesqe (is that a word?) blazer over it. I decided on dark jeans from Gap, my Burberry watch and a chain bracelet from BCBG. As you can obviously see, at this point in the night, I had decided to remove my shoes but I went with my dark gray Banana Republic gem flats again. 

Until next time! Hopefully by then I will have made changes to this blog!

Finally a new post!

Hey Everyone! I’m back from my trip and I’m definitely glad to be home. :) 

In all honesty, I have been back for a couple of weeks but I just haven’t had any time to update. Here are a few great outfits I’ve worn over the past week and wanted to share.

This outfit is super casual and fun. The shirt is from Armani Exchange (my sis got it for me for my birthday) and the cardigan is from Forever 21. The jeans are from Delia’s (as usual) and the boots are from Old Navy. This is great to just throw on whenever I have somewhere quick to go.

Here’s another casual outfit I liked. A teals t-shirt from Max Rave, a peach Guess tanktop, a tan cardigan from New York and Company and jeans from Target. I can wear jeans to work, so I wore this to work one day. I think its casual and the fun colors kept it from being plain.

This outfit is not very fall-y but I really wanted to wear it and I don’t care about wearing white after Labor Day. The outfit has a tanktop from Charlotte Russe (not shown), a tanktop from Target and white jeans from Delia’s. I paired it with some flip flops from Old Navy, a silver necklace with my name on it (not shown) and a Disney silver charm bracelet (not shown).

My friend BB celebrated her 23rd birthday on Tuesday (Happy Birthday!) and we went out to dinner to celebrate her birthday!  I wore a new Express dress, with leggings from Discovery. I paired the dress with a gray knit cardigan from Discovery and black pumps from BCBG. I accessorized with a black wristlet from Guess (not shown), silver necklace from Express, black chandelier earrings from Forever 21 and a silver bracelet from New York and Company

 

I also went shopping a couple times and got a ton of great pieces! I can not wait to share them with you! Have any of you gotten any great fall pieces recently? 

I ain’t in no hurry, you go run and tell your friends I’m losing touch

Hello Everyone! As a prelude let me just tell you I am updating from my phone so excuse spelling errors — my phone can’t catch everything.

I have photos to share today!

But first let me update you on my Fourth of July weekend. We had a barbeque at our new house on Sunday even though we aren’t moved in yet. I didn’t have work on Monday and my mom, sister and I went to Ikea. There were so many people there I couldn’t believe it! I have never been there so it was interesting. We didn’t even get to the furniture upstairs because we HAD to leave.

I feel like I am about to start a new chapter in my life. My internship is almost over, I’m moving and my birthday is coming up soon. My cousins should be coming back from the Middle East soon as well and I’m really excited! I haven’t seen them in months so it will be nice.

Anyways…

So let’s see first was my maxi from Friday! Yes, I did it and actually wore a long dress. It’s super nice and I actually got it from JCPenney last year but never wore because I have an irrational dislike of long casual dresses. The top was slightly inappropriate for the office so I had to put a shirt on under it. I wore an owl necklace from Charlotte Russe and my Aldo gladiator sandals (not pictured).

I didn’t bother to take pictures this weekend because my outfits were tshirts and capris everyday and I didn’t have 2 minutes to take a photo.

My sister purchases these amazing sandals from Discovery and I absolutely had to wear them on Tuesday. In case you can’t see them in the photo, they have little golden balls on them and a scrunchie slingback. I worked my entire outfit around them. I wore a gold tanktop that I think I purchased from JC Penney a couple years ago and pull out every so often. I wore dark jeans from Delia’s (of course). I obviously could not wear a tank top to work so I covered up with a purple shrug I got from the Middle East. I complimented it with purple circle earrings (they are circles not hoops) and my Juicy charm bracelet.

Today I decided to go a traditionally fashionable route and based my outfit on Jackie O or for those who don’t know that’s Jackie Kennedy. Yes, I did explain to my coworker that I was talking about Jackie Kennedy when I said Jackie O.

I wore a black and white dress from Forever 21 with white flats (not shown sorry but I’ll take a picture of them eventually). I wore a white tank top under the dress to cover up the slit inthe front. I also chose to wear my real pearl necklace and bracelet but put on these little flower earrings (not pictured). I have had them so long I have no idea where I got them.
