Sale Haul part 1 a.k.a. These camo pants make my thighs disappear.

August 8, 2017 · Leave a Comment

Hey there! Welcome (or welcome back!). Hope you are doing okie dokie! 🙂

I had a great weekend this weekend. We have been so busy this summer, that it was nice to have one weekend where we weren’t scheduled to death. I even had time to shop this weekend. YAY!! (*Cue my hubby rolling his eyes*). I had a bunch of errands to get done this weekend and I was able to stop at Target and found out they were having a huge sale/clearance sale throughout the store. I found some great items, and had a little photoshoot with the first look. First up…just LOOK at these sneakers

Seriously?? Blush pink, AND Metal studs AND rhinestones AND pearls? WHAT?? It’s like someone visited my dreams and plucked then out of my crazy imagination. They are superb and my new favorite. I’ll be honest, I’m not sure how practical these sneakers are going to be in the long run, but…I care not. They are so pretty!!

I also got a couple of pairs of very comfortable Mossimo camo print jeggings. I have been wanting a pair of camo print pants for a while, but I hadn’t been able to find anything that (a) I liked the fit of (b) was willing to pay the price of. These pants were on clearance so I got them for a little over $15. SCORE! Now for some more photos!

I MAY have gotten a little bit silly during this one.

It’s hard to keep a straight face sometimes when you are taking pics of yourself. I added a denim jacket that I got from Old Navy a couple of years ago, because the weather here in New England changes it’s mind more than my mother-in-law! Old navy still sells Denim Jackets so I have linked one below.

Outfit deets (everything is either exact or similiar):

So, what do we think? Are we feeling the camo/utility trend? Is it dead? Did I miss it? I never know what’s going on. Let me know in the comments.

New to Me a.k.a. The Second Time Around

August 1, 2017 · Leave a Comment

(The title of this post reminds me of that song by Shalamar “The Second Time Around”. I know. I am dating myself. Meh…)

Hey, Hi, Hello! Welcome (or welcome back)! This weekend we had BEAUTIFUL sunny weather in the North East, although it was a bit chilly on Saturday morning. It’s almost like the summer that never was, with temps in the 60’s. So Strange. Moving on…
I LOVE consignment shops, and thrift shops. You can find great pieces at amazing prices, and I don’t know anyone who doesn’t love to save a buck ot two once in awhile. The shop is called Twice a Diva, in North Attleboro, MA. If you live in the area you should check them out.
I found quite a few pieces and it was all less than $70. SCORE! I just got a phone mount and a bluetooth photo remote for my phone and I decided to do my first little photo shoot by myself (YAY) using one of the outfits I put together with the consignment pieces and some things I already had at home. I hope that I will get better with the timing on the remote and the camera. You should have SEEN some of the faces in the deleted photos!

Without further ado…

I LOVE the “Ooh la la” T-shirt and it’s Kate Spade! I thought it paired well with the dark floral cropped blazer and just a basic pair of slim fit capris I got a Kohl’s and a cute pair of pink wedges from Aerosoles (so comfy).

The last piece that I loved was the “Slay All Day” Milly clutch.

I am really loving the graphic phrase shirts lately! Wanna know what I am thinking? Just read my shirt!

I am sure there will be a few more photo shoots coming up with some more pieces that I picked up at this store, and I am certain I will be back there soon!

I did some research online to see if I could find any of the pieces still for sale. Unfortunately I could not find all of the exact items. That’s gonna happen when things are bought on consignment, but I was able to find some similar pieces if you are interested in putting together an outfit like this!

Pieces I am wearing:

Floral Cropped Blazer by Miss Blush (not able to find original) but here is a similar product from Boohoo

Black-floral-blazer — Emily Crop Floral Blazer

Kate Spade Ooh La La Tshirt (not able to find original online) But below are a few options

arrow-tshirt — Follow Your Arrow T-Shirt on Etsy

ooh la la tank top — Ooh La La Tank Top on Etsy

Capris — Women’s Apt. 9® Modern Fit Skinny Capri Jeans at Kohls

Aerosoles Spring Plush wedges in Dark Pink Suede

Slay-pouch — Slay All Day Zip Pouch from Milly

What do you think? Do you like consignment and thrift stores? Had an amazing finds you would like to share? Let me know in the comments.

XO,
