Spring Shopping

Monday, March 8th, 2010 | 50 Comments

Since I don’t plan on ordering anything from 109 or WC (for however long that lasts, lol) I started buying a few spring items!! They’re finally in store and I’m just too excited to contain myself! I got a few things this past week + weekend.

The Tops

From Target!
I loved this the moment I saw it!

I didn’t buy it right away.

I tried not to buy it at all, but when I tried it on I just had to have it.

I want to match it with my new khaki shorts. I’m going to take this to Japan since we’ll be going in the burning summer!!

Ruffle vest from H&M!!
I’ve been wanting a lace or ruffle vest badly!! :getit: I’ve tried on a lot of them to be honest, but I liked this one and when I saw it was only $9 I went ahead and bought it, LOL.

I’ve missed my gold paint wall!
In the winter no sunlight comes in so I forget how pretty the paint is. *_* Thankfully the sun’s been out for days! And it’s still in the low 60’s! Maybe all the snow will melt this week

Onto the shoes. OK, I bought a number of shoes… Three to be exact. A pair of short cowboy boots, some new black heels, and some flip flops.

The Shoes

Short cowboy boots!
Got these for $30 at JCPenney’s

Black studded heels!
From H&M. Does anyone remember how I said I tried these on?

It was when I got the patchwork denim. I decided to snag them this weekend!! :getit:

I’m really happy I did! I took them to work today to break them in. They’re soft, but sturdy. And they don’t slip off my feet when I try to walk. :good: I like the height. Taller than kitten heels but not a stiletto so I could see myself wearing these for long shopping hours! Ho~ ho~ ho~ I have high hopes for these heels.

I want them to replace my pink heels as my “comfy heel.”

The pretty pattern insole is my own, not H&M’s. I put insoles in most all my shoes :good:

Rhinestone flip flops!
From Target.

On sale tonight for $10, LOL
I really, reaaaaaaally wanted something like this LAST SUMMER after seeing a pretty pair from Alba Rosa. Well no luck last year.

So I thought I’d pick these up when I saw them. My favorite pair of black flip flops are wearing thin, so maybe these will be comfy and matchable enough to take their place.

There’s a trend here really. I’m having to replace some of my old clothes. Either for fit or just wear ‘n tear. Speaking of I got my Free People dress back today!! It fits great! Though a tad more fitted in the shoulders than I’m used to. :F It’s OK, I’m just used to loose clothing, LOL. The fitted shoulders really give it nice straight lines. Plus now the skirt is fuller on the bottom because she only took in the sides! YES! I love it.

I took a few snaps but on my blackberry, real tiny too because they’re really meant to mail to my friend. No worries, I’ll be wearing this outfit sometimes soon again! :good:
