Arrgh, I've been doing so well lately not shopping. And then I made a list of wardrobe must-haves - you know, the little staple items I need to make the rest of my closet more versatile. On that list: colored cardigans (I have two black ones and a brown one; how thrilling), printed tops to go under cardigans, and some colored shoes - specifically, yellow, plum and teal. Oh, and textured tights.
I'm a big fan of making lists and crossing things off, so of course this made me immediately start shopping. Here are a few of the things I've picked up:
Up first, the Anthropologie Snakebite belt. I actually ordered the Flossie first (you'll see it in a few) and it didn't work, so after hearing Anthroholic rave about how much she wears her Snakebite belt, I decided to give it a shot. However, I just noticed that they're out of all sizes but large right now, and my return was done via the mail so I wonder how that will work - by the time they process my return obviously the belt won't be available in my size. Unless they restock quick. We'll see!
Oh yeah, this Octopus ring was definitely not on my wardrobe NEED list. But I was ordering a blue cardigan from Modcloth and this little guy was only $7. At Forever 21-like prices, I figured he would make a funky addition to my jewelry box.
Here's the aforementioned cardi. See?? I *needed* this. And it's got a girly flair.
Clearance at Anthro! Love the color. Wore it over a pair of black skinny jeans tucked into black boots last weekend, and I believe a black cardi as well.
Um. These were not on the list. But they were only like $30 in the Von Maur clearance shoe room, so how could I pass them up?
These WERE on my list, and were also in the VM clearance shoe room! The funny thing is, every time I check out yellow shoes on Zappos (because they're on The List), my eye lands on these. However, they're $168 on sale on Zappos. I got them for $44 in the shoe room!! Color me stoked, girl (Heathers, anyone?).
Another Anthro clearance purchase, and also on The List - printed tops to wear under cardis. Bonus: I got my mom to buy me this one :)
Anthro clearance purchase! Printed top for The List.
Berry-colored cardigan from Target, also on The List. Also: super cheap at $17.99.
And this is the Flossie from Anthro that didn't work. The neckline was just too gaping for my liking. Showed a bit too much. And although I was drawn to the cute sailor-girl aesthetic online, in person it was just a bit much.
Is that everything? Yikes, I think that's everything, plus a pair of $14 plum-colored textured tights from VM. Since the VM charge card is interest free I hardly count it. That's probably not right, but... you know. A girl's gotta justify.
