Romantic Clothes!

Last weekend Lauren wanted to go to the mall.  I wasn't planning on buying a thing but I followed her into Charlotte Russe which is not a store I usually shop in.  Next thing I know I see a rack with lace so I head straight over there!  Well...I fell in love with this lace vest!  It is adorable with a white tank top and jeans! I can hardly wait for the weather to warm up a little so I  can wear it!  The best part, it was on sale but I didn't know that until I went up the the cash register. It was normally $24 but I think I only paid $17! 
I must be on a lace clothing kick because I orderd this top below online from Boston Proper last week and just got it in the mail yesterday. I didn't have a chance to take a pic of mine so I'm showing you the catalog photo... I love this top! There are about a million other things I want from Boston Proper...I love their clothes!  Since I've lost so much weight I actually need to buy clothes! Haha...you like how I justify that?
Lauren and I stopped in Marshalls the other day and I found these adorable Betsey Johnson shoes on the clearance rack!  Only $29!!!! Unheard of for Betsey Johnson.  They are a little big, but only about 1/2 size but for that price I'm fine with that!
I love the hot pink underneath! So Chic!

  9. I actually LOATHE the mall, but once in awhile I go (about 2-3 times per year) and find some cute stuff in Charlotte Russe. White House/Black Market is also another store I love! Looks like you found some fun stuff! (*_*)

  15. Some really lovely finds. Your shoes being big is good - better than being '2 hour shoes'. 2 hours being how long before your eyes starts to water, lol.

  31. Thanks everyone! Yes, Mary those are my toes! I would never make it as a foot model with that extra long second toe! haha! I got a pedi a couple weeks ago and I never get hot pink polish but for some reason I did and it worked out perfectly for these shoes!
