I did a lil shopping last night because I really won't get a chance to buy anything this busy busy weekend. Anyway...
From this knock-offed knock-offs store called Santa Moon:
From Old Navy:
Annnd my friend declared last night "Hot Outfit Night" at the bar, but I couldn't decide on anything in my closet so I wound up buying a yellow tee and ironing letters on it. I put "This Is My Hot Oufit" on the front and "Holler!" on the back (holler is sort of an inside joke.) Fun!

Well, I already posted this but I'm posting again - I did break my shopping ban a little & bought these 2 shrugs in coral & brown, I know I'm keeping the brown one, still torn about the coral.
And I got this in the mail today from ebay - my husband bought it for me for our anniversary so it doesn't count against the shopping ban
Vintage crochet shawl/wrap - it is much more yellow than I thought, and looking back at the picture I don't know why it surprised me - it's still very pretty though!! Don't ask me what outfit I'm wearing - but I just HAD to have it.
But that's it for the whole weekend. I promise
Edit - OK one more thing - I won these off ebay for $40 - but i don't think these count against my shopping ban either for several reasons #1 - there is a place in Vegas that sells similar ones off a reserve (supposedly) & that was going to be my souvenir from my DH's trip next weekend, #2 - they are on my fall wish list so technically the $$ I'm saving would go to a pair of these anyway #3, i wanted them 2 years before they were "in style" so THERE!! LOL (is that enough rationalization for you???)

Today is payday, I paid credit cards, then couldn't resist to go shopping with my left over cash. At AE I got their green crew tee (which I have been wanting since it came out) for only $3.95! Plus I picked up two comfy boy briefs for only $1.95 each, and a light blue with green, white, and yellow dots scarf belt for only $3.95.
Remember that Tommy Hilfiger khaki jacket I bought at Macy's last week? It was now 50% off! I got an adjustment for over $50 back! Now I can wear it!!!!!!!
Went to the Jcrew 75% off sale. No freakin extra smalls! Why can't they stock up on that size?
Really wanted these grey pants at Gap outlet with pink pinstripes, the size 0 is too damn loose in the thigh!
Came home and my Macy's order was in the mail box! Very quick. Dissapointed that Calvin Klein seems to run big. The extra smalls seemed more like smalls. I did adore the black shawl-collar cardigan with ribbon belt. That fit nice. The cashmere sweater was a little itchy and too big like a sweatshirt. The cashmere tee is okay, a little big. The cabled crew sweater is big too, but may just work for being comfy in on cold days. I think I will just have to return the cashmere stuff, and get Jcrew ones at the outlet.
Now I'm exhausted!
Saturday: I checked out Ross. Junk as usual. Went to Old Navy, the one thing I liked was this cute pink cardigan and it was only $3.97! Wierd thing though is that the top button is actually a snap button. The rest? The little slits where you put the botton through aren't even cut! I will have to do it myself.

laken1, awesome wrap! I found a similar wrap (almost the exact same shape and style, but more pinky cream color) when going through some stuff of my grandma's this summer. I love it, but haven't figured how I'm going to wear it yet either. Let me know if you end up putting together any cute outfits with it!
finishing up my back to school shopping... (wanted the bronze, but they're sold out, dammit!) (in red) and another pair of editors in light grey...it kills me to pay full-price at Express, but I don't think they're going on sale anytime soon.
I'm so sad :( I posted these the other day, they were backordered till 7/21 and I just checked right now and my size already sold out in the tan and bronze, which were the only colors I was considering. You can't even backorder either :( If anyone sees them elsewhere, pls. let me know!

Vanessa, I called them yesterday before I ordered, because I wanted the bronze too, and the lady told me they are expecting more in on 7/30. I am torn between the bronze & tan, too.

I really did some Anthro damage... There were some things I wanted, and I always hold off then things get sold out... (boots from zappos - I ended up ordering them - thanks for all those who gave input )

Thanks, ILoveChoo! When I saw them, I totally fell in love! They come in black and pink too and they come in patent leather, but I really loved the brown croc.
