Good Deals

Hi all! Hope everyone had a good weekend! Mine feels like it went by wayyy too fast :/ But, summer is almost here! Yay!

I just wanted to take a moment and say THANK YOU for all the sweet comments I have received from everyone about the blog. They mean so much to me! Thank you for taking the time to read my posts.  Thank you thank you thank you! (:

So, today I'm going to do something called a "bag raid". I saw this once on a fashion blog and I thought it was really cool. Basically, whenever I go shopping, I share whatever I buy with you guys. I just went shopping yesterday, so I thought this would be perfect timing! I go shopping a lot, so you guys might see similar posts very frequently (hehe)

Rue 21 is my most frequently shopped store. It is extremely cheap. Don't ever buy anything full price there. Wait 2 weeks--I promise you it will be 50% off next time you visit. Yesterday, I found these cute wedges for $10. I can't wait to wear them with jeans :) I love the burlap heel! It looks so cute and casual.



I then journeyed my way onto Cato. For me, this store is hit or miss. Sometimes I find a billion things I like. Other times, I can't find a thing. This might just be a personal thing because I know tons of people who find extremely cute things here. I just have more of a difficult time, haha! 

Yesterday, I found 2 very cute necklaces and a dress. The first necklace was on sale for $3.99.
I guess you could say it is another statement necklace! The picture does not do the necklace justice. It is extremely sparkly AND it is a neutral piece so it will look great with anything.

The second necklace I bought full price for $8. I loved the little flower on it :) I just thought it was toooooo cute. I also liked the brass finish of the necklace..kinda vintage looking!

Lastly, I splurged and bought a dress for $20. Sometimes you just gotta splurge, especially when you are looking for dresses. You will rarely find a flattering dress for under $20. So, of course I had to buy it!
The picture doesn't do this piece justice, either. It is extremely cute on! It has ruffles down the front and it ties in a bow on the side. It sounds a little busy, but it works, I promise. I loved the colors of the dress. They reminded me of a peacock feather and we all know that I love those :) Here's a close up of the fabric:
Love it! The material is very light weight, too. Perfect for summertime!

On a last note, I wanted to share the outfit I wore today. Some of the pieces were really good steals, so I really have to share!

Seersucker Blazer: Forever 21: $23.00
Embellished camisole: Rue 21: $5
White pencil skirt: Cato $8
Peach peep-toes: Roses $7
Pearl earrings: Eric (hehe) (I lost one today, too! :( I'm so sad!)
Cluster bracelets: Forever 21 $3.00
