Gettin Old

I played with Dev, which consisted of crawling all over the floor and banging my knees.  My one knee is killing me now!  Can't help but think, "damn, it must be a part of gettin old..."  I mean, I'm not one of those people who are 23 calling themselves "old."  But 25 is ok.  (Just kidding).






white coat: express -gab bros ($20) originally $80 and $175 in stores
leopard shirt: f21 ($13)
gap jeans: "thrifted" ($14)
vintage nine west shoes: gab bros. ($30)

Haha! Michael just said "Cuz you're old!" to someone at the t.v.  Whatever it was in response to, I wonder if we often think about getting or being old....is this what happens when you become a parent perhaps? I really am just kiddin though.  Promise.

Anyway, these aren't my favorite pics (dont mind my mug). I love these jeans every now and then, but I am very picky with what shoes I wear with them.   Well, anyhow, I'm gonna look at a few of my fav blogs, get some inspiration for what to pair with this skirt I want to wear tomorrow, and then get ready for bed!

Night!

Happy Sunday!

Tomorrow is Monday already. ALREADY! I hope your weekend went well!  Mine was alright.  Friday I went to Goodwill with my dad-  he was kind enough to get the clothes for me so Michael wouldn't yell at me, I got the PERFECT pencil skirt, another one, a couple pants, a couple shirts, a belt and a purse I love (haven't bought a purse in a year!).  Saturday, I had a nice date with Michael, we went to the Leesburg outlets in Virginia.  The way we went was a very scenic route, and the weather was perfect!  I didn't buy one thing.  Michael even said "So what?  You only by used clothes now?? You're not even looking at anything!" I thought it was kinda funny.  Anyway, wanted to share Friday and Saturdays outfits:


{Everything from Forever21: dress ($14), jacket (clearance $16?), sunglasses ($4)}




{belt: thrifted ($2)}

Saturdays outfit:
{jacket: rugged warehouse ($4), white tee- Forever 21 ($4), trousers: thrifted (5), belt: thrifted ($2), shoes: Nine West ($70)}


 {purse: thrifted ($5), bracelets: thrifted ($2), necklace: gift}



This outfit is really one of my favorites.  The only downside to these vintage high wasted trousers is that they don't do a lot for my butt.  Either way, I loved this outfit!  When we went to the outlets, I switched the shoes to the sandals seen here.  The outfit looked just as cute.

So, that's all folks! I hope you had a great weekend and are looking forward to a good week!

Thirsty Thrifts

I went to a Goodwill yesterday, I always slacked on visiting it, but it was a gold mine!  I got so much cool stuff, including a vintage dress! Woohoo!  I never find that stuff at Salvation Army, where I go normally.  But, I did find this beauuitffuulll bracelet for $2 there.  I will have to show you guys the rest of my amazing finds soon, but for now, here's inspiration outfit with the shirt and jewelry all being thrifting finds!


{Banana Republic shirt: thrift ($4), black jeggings: Forever 21 ($15), Bakers shoes: ($40)}


{leopard belt: forever21 ($5), necklace: thrifted ($2)}


{bracelets: thrifted $2)

Sorry these pictures are a bit over exposed.  Also, I hate the star tattoo.  But anyway, pretty easy look to pull off.  I really liked the added leopard belt.  This outfit can be a casual everyday outfit and it's even great for work!  

How could I make this outfit a bit more casual?
You could easily do so by loosing the heels and wearing oxfords instead, both black or brown would work.

If you haven't entered the giveaway yet, you should definitely do so!  Its simple, and you could win a free gift, so why not? Hollaa
