Kyle Chan Chalcedony Earrings

I have these earrings and wear them at least twice a week. 

You can always find a Kyle Chan coupon if you search. 

I believe I got them for 20% off when I ordered them. 

Great customer service & I got them in only 3 days.

Forever 21 Abstract T-Back Dress

I like this one belted. 

Pencil Skirt with Peplum from Zara

I'm a sucker for a peplum. 

DVF Sequin Purse

Strapless High-Low Dress from Target

I bought this dress a couple of weeks ago. 

I LOVE it and could kick myself for not getting the other colors. 

Matiko Paris Light Blue and Brown Cutout Wedges

I think I'm going to pull the trigger and get these. 

Love the design. Love the colors. Sold. 

Forever 21 Scores

I wanted to show y'all my latest scores at Forever 21. It's called a "Geo Wrap Dress", and I'm in love with the print. It's from their "Love 21" line, so order a size down.

Geo Wrap Dress

I also got these shoes.

Velveteen Platform Pumps

Pretty comfy and such a great color. I want the fuchsia ones now;-) I'm a 7.5 and ordered a 7 in these.

Striped Moto Jacket

This jacket looks pink in the picture, but it's really taupe. I bought both colorways. Such a fabulous spring jacket. I've already worn my navy one twice this week.

Another moto jacket.....

I got this one in cream. 

French Terry Biker Jacket

I hope to do more blog posts. Life has gotten in the way lately! 

Thanks for hanging with me;-)

Candy Colored Accessories

Welp. Winter has pretty much been non-existent for us. Not that you'll hear me complaining after last winter's blizzard and -7 degree weather.

I'm already looking at spring fashions even though the temps are still somewhat low. I'm not ready for white jeans and pastel tops, but I do like to add a pop of color to my cold weather outfits. My favorite way to bring some life into the endless sea of gray and black in my closet is by adding candy colored accessories.  Here are some pieces that I recently ordered and a few others I want.

Orchids and Poppies Scarf from F21

Snagged this one for $10.80

I love bright colors combined with black. 

Vibrant Southwestern Scarf

Oops. Got this one too.

$8.80 from F21

Vibrant Patterned Scarf

$8.80

Seven Stone Short Necklace from Arden B

I'd wear this with gray jeans and a bright turquoise top.

Kate Spade Julianna Jelly Bow Flats

Helloooooo cutie! 

Love this different take on a skinny belt.

Skinny Mini Green Belt

$19.00

Tory Burch Amanda Clutch

Perfect little bag!

Have a great Sunday!

XOXO

Eye Candy

Warning: shallow blog post ahead. 

With a "gimped up" knee,
I've had lots of time to peruse the internet.
So here's a little eye candy.

Diane von Furstenberg Animal Print Flat

These come in orange and also leopard print. 

I wonder how comfortable they are?

Indah Amazing Crochet Top in White

Kate Spade Catarina Zebra Print Blouse

Ahh, Kate. I'm so in love with this blouse. 

Aldo Earrings

 Only $18.00
How cute would these be with a flowy turquoise blouse or dress?

Forever 21 Dotted Woven Top
Just ordered this.

Hope you all are having a great New Year.
Speaking of the New Year, 
I hope to do some posts on healthier eating.
I started "My Fitness Pal" and really like it. 
Check it out!

Forever 21 Trench

I have this awesome Tory Burch "Jim" trench that I ordered last year during one of her sale-a-poloozas. I love it, but it's a little dressy (blingin' gold buttons) for hauling the kids back and forth to school.

Tory Burch "Jim" trench with tricked out gold rims

We've had a few days of rainy weather, so I decided to order this inexpensive Forever 21 trench. I love the ruffled asymmetrical collar and the fact this it's lightweight.  Hormonal mama doesn't need any more warmth. Word. 

Belted Trench Coat

Happy Tuesday! XOXO

Sunshine Smiling At Me

For some reason,  79 straight months of snow I'm really excited to wear yellow for spring. However, with red hair, I can't wear full-on sunshine yellow. My best bet to not look like "Daffodil Debbie" is to incorporate "pops" of yellow into my spring wardrobe.

Seychelles "Harlow" Espadrille Sandal

I ordered these this morning. It's only in the 30s here today, and we're expected to get more snow this week. So what do I do? I order yellow sandals. HA!

The Limited Piped Strapless Dress 

I love the print on this dress. Very versatile!

Burberry London Woven Technical Taffeta Jacket

How can you go wrong with Burberry?

J Crew Ballet Flats in Sour Lemon

I'd wear these with gray or with a navy/white striped top and narrow, cropped pants.

Charlotte Russe Striped Floral Graphic Top

So cute! Best part.....it's only $15.

Forever 21 Tri-Striped Scarf

Only $7.80!

Hoping for the REAL sunshine soon!

Dreaming of Bold Print Dresses

Instead of complaining about winter weather and telling you how much I hate it, I'm going to offer you a glimmer of spring hope. Here's a few dresses that I miraculously wish into my closet.

This is such a lovely maxi dress from Lulu's.

Here's a closeup of the print.

Sheryl One Shoulder Dress --Voom by Joy Han

 I love the graphic print on this casual Mara Hoffman Poncho Mini Dress

Tibi Calla Lily V Neck Dress

This one is my FAVORITE! 

Check out the back!

Forever 21 Boho Chic Dress

I love how the print on the back is switched on this one too.

Are you as ready as I am for spring and summer dresses?

Five For Friday

My Five Favorite Turquoise Jewelry Finds

(all from Forever 21)

  

Faux Stone Earrings

At $2.80, these earrings are a great bargain! They're big (2.5" x 1"), so you can get a dramatic look for less.

Beaded Coil Bracelet

LOVE this. I'd wear one on each arm with a red or fuchsia dress.

Elasticized Stone Ring

There's nothing like a big statement ring!

Gothic Large Shield Necklace

I would wear this with a plain tunic dress or white tee and jeans.

Smooth Stone Stretch Bracelet

This bracelet looks a lot more expensive than the $10.80 price tag.

Have a great weekend!

Forever 21 Denim Shorts

I’m old enough to see trends on their 2nd and even 3rd time around. Denim shorts, even though they have never truly been “out of style”, they’re on the upswing this summer.

I honestly am not a big fan of shorts for myself. I’m self-conscious about my legs big time. However, I can’t wear dresses everyday, and I don’t want to live in workout clothes either.

I started looking for some distressed denim shorts that were not so short that it looked like I needed to “drop it like it’s hot”. I’ve either found them to be Bermuda length or booty shorts. No in between.

I found these at Forever 21 and love them. They’re longer, but can be cuffed or rolled up.  Even better….they don’t have the $100 price tag like J Brand and other designer brands.

Forever 21 Cut-off Whiskered Short

Cuffed one time.

Um, excuse that weird bulge in my sweater.

I’m wearing them with my new Forever 21 sweater and Sam Edelman “ Ginger” gladiators.

Cuffed two times

I had to share these! So comfy!
