I bought the white coral knobs from Anthropologie that I had been eyeing- bought 10 of them just in case.


I bought this Tano bag after seeing it on a girl.  It is sooo pretty in person.

this weekend was kind of a bust at the thrift/mall. but i did get a few items. (the mall was completely beat, and i couldn't find ANYTHING there)

this was actually a skirt suit outfit, but the skirt i didn't even try on because it looked 10 sizes too small for me. too bad, it was a cute velvet a-line.



i don't have a lot of accessories and i seriously need to branch out. this reminds me of this chloe necklace that i wanted two years ago.



these are super fun and have a really triangular heel. i've been wanting green shoes for awhile.



this is a bad picture of a cute dress. it has the cutest top and flower pattern. with a typical cardigan sweater, i think it's nice for fall.

Having admired this Anthro cardigan for quite some time in other people's posts I just couldn't resist anymore. And it was only $20 in the store.

They did have a bunch of them in the Boston store, at least in medium and large. Maybe your store would be willing to do a charge send...

I can see it now and it is GORGEOUS.  I am trying to decide on a Tano for fall.  Erin, I'm loving all your loot.


My mom bought me this and gave it to me this weekend:


convertible drape top But it's a dusty greenish blue.  I LOVE it!  It's by Velvet and it's that soft cotton jersey all their stuff is made of.


She also got me this American Apparel skirt in forest green:


Big Photo and a lavendar sleeveless boatneck tee

i'm a little late with the weekend shopping, but here's what i got:


KORS by Michael Kors Coastsorry for the huge pic on ebay for $40, and


 on ebay for $19.99


to go with these dresses that i have had for a while and haven't found the perfect shoe yet:



other than that i bought a pair of white pants from bcbg (70% off) and replaced my black cardiwrap. 


pedicure and waxing, and bf's b-day dinner.  it was an expensive week for me.  this week should be good but next week we can buy the new fall bcbg stuff (it has to be in the store for 4 weeks before we can buy it with our discount), so i plan on buying my eight items (that's our limit) next week.

Just this sweater that I broke ban for. I see it working really well in my fall/winter wardrobe. I am short, so it's a little longer on me- falls to about mid hip.


Caslon Bouclé Sweater

My new dance shoes came on Saturday, and I'm so excited... I went out dancing last night pretty much just to use the shoes. They drew many admiring glances.

$58.70


I can't post the pic for these pants, so if you want to see them you'll have to click on the link. I'm not sure that I'm going to keep them...only if the ones I had transferred at Nordstroms don't work. The denim on the Express Editors is a little too light, and the dye doesn't look that good. I'm keeping my fingers crossed for the Nordstroms ones.
Express Editor pants in stretch denim $49.50

And I also got a handkerchief hem skirt is super soft jersey knit in black from Forever21 (I already have it in grey) $18.80.
It is the best skirt in the world. I would recommend it to anyone. I wear it dancing, to work, for lounging around, everywhere!

I know this sounds kinda weird but I have entertained getting a fake engagement ring because I almost always shop alone. I think it would stop a lot of guys from trying to pick me up. When I'm waiting at bus stops, on buses, at reataurants...someone has to try an ask me out. I've had a BF for nearly four years so I'm defintely not looking for dates from random people on the street. I even had a (really cute) guy try to pick me up in downtown LA while I was on my way home and he wouldn't leave me alone for four blocks. I think situations like that can be easily avoided if you have a ring on your finger.   But that's just me...so take it for what it's worth. *back on topic* no shopping because i'm still on the ban. All you girls got some hot stuff though!


I understand this, too.  I don't wear a ring that looks like an engagement ring, but I do wear an eternity ring with a flower pattern.   I do it to keep people from hitting on me, too.  People tend to back off if I wave my hand in the air.  I hate getting hit on my strangers, whether I'm out shopping or out with my friends.  I figure, I'm in a serious relationship and I'm off the market, so people should know that, right?


As for shopping, I bought the earrings from alltherageonline that I've been wanting (since the ban is technically over, but I'm thinking of starting it again next week after my bday):


in aqua


I hope I wear them. I tend to not wear stuff I haven't made.  But these are cute!

actually I know from personal experience that most guys don't notice (at first) or even care if you're wearing a ring!

I agree with this. Some guys also take it as a personal challenge to try and pick up an engaged woman. Creeps.
