OOTD- Maxi away!

I had been on a hunt for a maxi dress for a while when my sister happened upon this one at H&M.  She texted me the picture and the rest is well history!  I love this dress and for only 20 buck-a-roo's!  If you do not live close to an H&M you may be able to contact Kim and her personal shopping services to track one down!

OOTD- Black and White!

I told Peggy I wanted to play along with her black and white week and finally on Friday I got around to it!!!  My MIL just left (boo!) and the kids are finally settled out back with the hose on the trampoline.  So, I decided to do some online shopping inspired by Jenni at Old Navy!  I also tried something new today with my hair my sister has been telling me to do this with my hair, copied from Emily at cupcakes and cashmere.  This outfit is old, but oldies can still be goodies right?  I got it to wear during the picnic at my 10 year reunion in '06, and now I am wearing it today...

Tuesday- Tales from the Sale(s)!

My Sister texted me at 2:30 am to let me know the buds and bunches tee had FINALLY hit the sale rack.  Now I know what you are thinking, I already own this in blue.  But in my defense I wear it ALL THE TIME!  So I broke down and picked it up the the beige color.  I was really wishing the Sea Epitome shirt hit the sale rack... maybe next week!





















Keeping my fingers crossed for you next week!!!

PS: A review on the Salty Sea's dress coming later today!
