our things are my things, so I'll just take them back.

Sorry for the lack of outfits lately, work has been hell and this week has started off hotter than hell. This is the other item I purchased at Urban Outfitters (when I got the black scalloped shorts). I waited forever for it to go on sale and it's actually perfect. The fabric is comfortable and thick enough, so less worry about anything showing underneath (I hate that about white dresses).

Scallops

Urban Outfitters has the scalloped shorts on sale again, this time in a floral print and yellow. At only $19.99, it seemed like a pretty good time to stock up, considering how much I liked my black ones. Stack coupon codes "FALLFORIT" and "CLASSACT" for free shipping and then 10% off! Find the shorts here.

We the Free Fur Trimmed Parka

I bought this recently at Free People. The second I saw it online, I knew I had to have it so I went to the store to try it on. It fit perfectly, comfortable, and slightly oversized. The inner lining can be removed and worn as a vest. Hopefully I'll love it as much this fall/winter as I do now. You can find the jacket here.

You can also see it styled in the lookbook on Shopbop here.

Like if they're 5 minutes late for work, I look at my watch, I look at them and they just get it.

Even though I know this outfit would have been much more lovely with heels, there are just some days my feet need to rest. I'm always afraid of getting horrible bunions again, I used to have them and hide my feet with sneakers all the time when I realized that my feet weren't like everyone else. In high school, I had surgery and I remember being so happy to wear plain old flip flops without being super self conscious. It was definitely a nice feeling.

Leave me alone I'm lonely

Loving this blouse, it's Silence & Noise that I got for $9.99 one day when Urban had an extra 50% off sale. At first I wasn't too sure about it, but the more I wear it, the better it gets.

Where can we take them where there'll be small people eating cake?

Today at my doorstep was a package from Urban Outfitters with goodies that I had purchased. One of them were these scalloped shorts by Lucca Couture. I have been looking everywhere for some nice scalloped shorts and these definitely satisfy my need for them. I purchased a size 0 and 2 to see which would fit me better, since the 0 fit, I am putting the size 2 up on Ebay to sell. Take a look at the listing here. When I purchase them they were on sale, but the price has gone back up for some reason, not quite sure why...

You can view reviews and more pictures here on the Urban Outfitters website.

Speak of the devil

Guess what I just received? So now the question is.. to keep or not to keep. These were a pain to get on but I think the straps just need some breaking in.




(Topshop Wisteria)

Please ignore my toes, I am in dire need for a manicure, however playing beach volleyball every weekend ruins them completely so I tend to get lazy.

Btw, does anyone use Photobucket? Have you ever exceeded your bandwidth? How have you fixed this problem? Right now I temporarily got a free trial of Photobucket Pro, they had adeal that if I signed up for Netflix I could get Pro, however I only signed up for the free trial if I do end up canceling, they may switch me back to normal. You guys probably noticed that last night my blog had turned into a bunch of bandwidth exceeded symbols. So any help with this problem is much appreciated!

Wedges

Noticed a trend in these type of wedges, which ones do you like the best? I recently purchased the Topshop Wisteria wedges, haven't received them yet but I'm excited.. it was between those and the Jeffrey Campbell draped wedges, however the Jeffrey Campbell's didn't have my size anyway.

Do you smell toast? Because I think you're having a stroke.

Today got extremely humid, in the 5 minutes that I took these photos I began to sweat profusely (lovely image, I know). Honestly, days like this is where I don't care too much about how I look or my hair looks (as long as it's up). Even this lightweight, oversized, nightgown looking dress from T by Alexander Wang was too hot to be wearing. If you're in the tri-state area, you know what I am talking about.

Anyway, tonight at 9pm, Gilt is having a T by Alexander Wang sale, so if you don't already have an account, click on the link I have to the right and sign up so you can check it out. Tomorrow is Jeffrey Campbell at noon.. can't wait.
