Thursday 9.16



Like Lianna, I'm excited that our temps have dropped into the 80's. For a Floridian, this means a hint of fall in the air. That means I can start pulling some "transitional" pieces from my closet. This dress is a fun print and makes me a tad bit sassy!

Dress: Ross
Shoes: Bandolino, TJ Maxx
Necklace: American Eagle "keys" on my own chain

Recap: Monday 9.13



I tried wearing a longer necklace with this dress and I think I'm pretty pleased with how it turned out. Also I debated wearing a heel with this dress, but it didn't feel right. Thoughts?

Dress: Ross
Shoed: Nine West
Necklace: Forever XXI

Lilly Sunday

I had a late breakfast with one of my oldest and dearest friends today. I was craving biscuits so we met up at Cracker Barrel! Aside from laughing and caching up with my friend, I picked up a Christmas ornament. Ah, love CB!

Today I also debuted my new Lilly bag, purchased from the Lilly Via Shop in Winter Park, FL. They had a great sale going on and I got this cutie for 40% off!



Back to football Sunday!

The rest of the week

I did take pictures of the rest of my OOTDs for the week. However they all turned out bad!! Seriously--blurry and/or camel toe spotting. ICK. I'm not quite ready for all the bad and ugly to be posted on this little blog.

In more positive news, I purchased a new pair of jeans and black slacks with my Groupon at Gap! It was a $50 value, purchased for $25. I only had to pay about $20 more when I cashed out, so I paid $45 really for both pants? That sounds about right! That plus Gap's vanity sizing--fun times :)


I really intended to purchase a darker wash, but I liked these too. Curvy Boot Cut - Sale price $35


Perfect Trouser Pants were almost perfect. I got the ankle length which is still a touch too long, even in my work heels. So once I get them hemmed, they will be perfect! Sale Price $35

J and I also took advantage of the LEC Stock Room Sale and the LE 25% off Labor Day sale. Wish I could post pictures, but Lands End's website is not cooperating. Here is what we got:

For moi
Modern Premium Stretch Denim Straight Leg 5 pocket Jeans - I've never tried LE's Jeans before. I picked the darkest pair. I really wanted a straight leg pair for Casual Friday's at work. Hoping these turn out.

For J
Long Sleeved Vintage Fleece - True Navy

Heritage Crewneck T in Lemon

Long Sleeve Henley - True Navy

J also ordered some Fall items from J Crew and LL Bean Signature, which will make their appearance once the weather cools down. Which at this rate is November!

Long Weekend wrap up + Tuesday 9.7

J and I had a great long weekend! It was a bit busier than I anticipated, but lots of fun! We tried out a delicious new French restaurant, went to St. Augustine for their farmer's market, attended a surprise birthday party, had dinner with some of our closest friends, visits our families and got some home decor/cleaning done. Whew!

Now, back to the grind. I picked today's outfit because....well, I'm bloated. I partly blame these.



Shirt: Merona, Target
Pants: NY & Co

I think it is time to retire these shoes. Not to be gross, but my feet sweat like crazy in them these days! All my other shoes are fine, so it's time. Thanks Michele D Shoes, you served me well in the Spring and Summer!

Wednesday 9.1

"Wake me up when September ends..." - Green Day

The days I can wear this skirt are numbered, so I definitely wanted to give it a whirl before the holiday weekend! I did not learn anything new about my clothes, like yesterday. But I did try a tangelo for the first time and it was delicious!
