I know this sounds really boring because all I got was Orla Kiely stuff but... Well, I just love her prints and I bought it all at a sample sale. Besides, these will make great gifts so I won't keep everything myself.

This wallet

And this wallet

This cosmetic purse

And best of all, this lovely canvas hat

I bought makeup!

Stila All Over Glow

smudge pot in bronze

honey · Gucci

got these from the billion dollar babes sample sale. i'm n/s if they're the same style since they're still low waisted on me, but higher than most of my other jeans. i think i'm going to try and dye them navy or a dark indigo.

also got this sweater but in navy and cream.

Maddie- I love that dress and I'm thinking of making a J.crew purchase....did you try it on in the store or just order it? if you've tried it, can you give a review?

I actually bought it after trying it on in the store and I'm wearing it right now. I think I'm going to start a separate post because I'm not sure if I should keep it. I love that it's washed silk, and I love the color, but the style is obviously not the most flattering. It doesn't make me look fat, it just doesn't really do anything for me. So anyway, I'm not sure.

I have that dress in the same color and it looks super cute and more flattering when I tie a scarf at the empire waist. I'll see if I can take a pic of it on me tomorrow. Also, I rigged the straps so they don't cross in the back or anything, and it looks better--they hold the dress up in the back so it doesn't cause the bubble butt effect.

I got this:

marche aux puces top in a greenish-yellow

and an orange Michael Stars scoop neck puff sleeve top

And a Mossimo v-neck cap sleeve blue gray sweater from Target with a cute ruffled collar (no pic available).

My BF was my shopping buddy this weekend. I took him to his first sample sale/blowout sale (True Religion) but we didn't find anything...or really I found a beautiful pair of TR Bobbys in Dark Hand Sand in my size, but was talked out of it because I have a pair of TR Joeys in the exact same wash and it seemed rather silly to get two jeans from the same company in the exact same wash.

I did get a Speedo swimsuit to work out in. Best part was that since I got it at Costco ($20!), BF paid for it. It's boring black but it will make me think I'm thinner.

I ordered this Gap hobo bag. Finally, a long strapped hobo that isnt bigger than me. I hope it works out.

zeitgeist4 · Gucci

These earrings, and a necklace with 3 teeny tiny charms that coordinates (not on website).

Although I bought these flats last week I never posted them.

Also ordered this last week, don't think I posted it.

The dress and belt are from bebe. I think it's sold out online. But call your local store to see if they have it or even try the customer service number on the website to locate the dress and belt for you. I promise I will post in thread style when I wear it, which I hope is sometime this week!
