A Quiet Weekend with Some Shopping

Hola~~~

So it’s raining… forever, at this point. All weekend into the next. Boo. It’s always rainy this time of year. Our rainy season

So Saturday I went on a hunt for the tote and shoes. Well win~lose. UO didn’t have the shoes in store. And online the review says the sizing is really off and since they only have full sizes and I wear a half I’m calling it quits. I’ve already got some white flats that will work for now. I keep them at work but I guess I’ll bring them home in case I want to wear them after work.

The tote was a better outcome. I went to the LLBean store to figure out which size and length I wanted. Then ordered it online today with monogramming. Really looking forward to a new work bag. Mine has loose seams and I wish it were a little bit bigger sometimes. So the new bag should work out great.

Shopping outfits, kept them low key since everything I did was early morning and home by noon for lunch.

Simple look, simple day shopping at LLBean then at Nordstroms I think in their bag section~

Blue Top - Zara
Army Green Khakis - H&M
Black Studded Heels - H&M
Black Quilted Bag - Yesstyle
Black Watch - Fossil

I bought a new collar necklace at F21 and brown barrettes at Target. Cheap but nice to have. I wore them both Sunday. I wanted some basic barrettes after seeing some from Dazzlin. Plus they look cute on short hair (which lacks a ton of style options) and it’s a good way to show on my earrings. I didn’t go through the pain for nothing!

cardigan looks speckled but its glitter

Lace Shoulder Blouse - H&M
Glittering Black Knit Cardi - Old Navy
Nude Color Camisole - Zara
Distressed Shorts - W♥C
Black Opaque Tights - S-leg
Black Wedge Oxfords - Aldo
Black Quilted Bag - Yesstyle
Gold Collar Necklace - Forever 21
Gold Logo Disc Studs - Marc by Marc Jacobs

I also picked up a $6 bracelet from Forever21 that reminded me of a Dazzlin version I really liked. Not a bad “look for less” moment Not that the Dazzlin version at face value is expensive, but for me it would be (shopping fees + double shipping.) It’s all about location, location, location.
