I ordered a few items on Wednesday from the new arrivals but I’m such a visual and touchy-feely shopper I had to go into the store and see some of them. One item that caught my eye was this Scalloped Lace A-Line Skirt in Navy. I was bemoaning to my VPS about the Collection Wool-Silk A-Line Skirt in Navy being almost sold out. Then I looked down to the lower shelves and saw this Lace skirt hanging. My VPS found a 6 and 8 for me and I went back into the fitting room to try it on.

It’s a Navy lace over-lay with a thin Black Tulle lining and then Black Poly lining. It has an A-Line shape and hits just above the knee. I tried on the size 6 and it was a great fit. To be sure, I tucked in the shirt I was wearing to see if I would still be comfortable, and I was.

This is not currently online. The Style # is 02825 and is $148.00.

This is such a beautiful skirt and I think it will be very versatile dressed up or down. I’m thinking all the Embellished Sweatshirts I’ve purchased with black tights and boots. I also see it with the Swoop Top in Brown and my Printed Etta’s. And I think it will be great paired with the Schoolboy Blazer in English Tweed. 
What do you think of this Lace Skirt? I have some trips coming up in October and this skirt will definitely be in my luggage.

I love my Reva Tunic in “orange” from Anthropologie. I have worn it at least once a week since I purchased it back in June.

So I am very happy to see a “green” colorway for Fall. I took a Medium over the Small from Summer so that I could easily layer it with long-sleeve tees, cardigans and leggings. But since it’s a sleeveless tunic dress, I am able to wear it during our warmer days until that happens. I added my Birkenstock’s and let my hair air-dry which left these wavy layers.This tunic is amazingly comfortable and so easy to just throw on and go.

The olive and orange are perfect pairings for Fall.

Have you tried the Reva Tunic? What else are you liking at Anthro these days?

The CFS must have been off and let an intern create the copy for the Collection Darby Calf-Hair Loafer.

Short and sweet
I ordered these with one of my last 20% Bounce Back cards. They were not part of the 25% Shoe promo a few weeks ago. I adore these shoes. The Calf-Hair is luxurious and feel like my old Prada flats. I took my normal size 7 and they are a perfect fit.

Have a Great Shoes-Day!

If you haven’t noticed, I don’t wear a lot of jewelry. I buy it but I don’t wear it. I always take it off at the last minute. That’s why I am really liking the Ruffled Rhinestone Top in White. It has built-in bling. I don’t know why the Tilda didn’t appeal to me like this top did. Maybe because there is more “bling” down the placket? I grabbed this top a few weeks ago while it was on promo and there was a 30% off. But with the crazy pricing games it’s now back to full price.That was the same with these Mid-Rise Toothpick Jeans in Carbon. They were on promo and there was a % off. I was able to get them for net $66. That was before the Jeans promo. I found these Louboutin Simple 70 Pumps on ebay in a color I’ve been coveting forever – a deep Cranberry. Love my Loubies!

This top also dresses up a blazer, like the Schoolboy Blazer in English Tweed.  I originally tried it on in a size 8 but I knew it wasn’t the right size. When I was making a return last week I tried it on in a size 10. Way much better fit through the shoulders and arms. I have realized it depends on the material that the blazers are made of to determine my size in them. The Linen Schoolboy I have is a size 8 and fits about the same as this blazer.

I really wish it would cool off so I could wear this outfit. It looks so good!

Have a Great Monday!

When I woke up Wednesday morning I was prepared for a bad hair day. I wanted a bad hair day because I wanted to wear the J Crew Colorblock Wool Baseball Cap. It was going to cover up my uncooperative hair and match my outfit. Then I was going to walk into my salon like the men do with a baseball cap on to cover up how bad it looked. But I had no such luck. I brushed out my hair and it was flowy and thick and wasn’t doing it’s own thing.

I can’t wait to layer this Silk Gingham Top under my Navy Schoolboy Blazer. And can I just tell you how much I love these Citizens of Humanity Dylan Boyfriend Jeans? I bought them originally in a size 29. Then went back for a PA and tried on the size 28. They fit better so I bought those too. $89.95 for $238 jeans…I’ll take two please.

   

I bought this Fan Necklace during one of my trips to the Factory Store this Summer. First time to wear it though. I wish I had grabbed the other colors.

And I love my new ‘do! My Stylist is awesome and easy on the eyes too! I wish he could style my hair every day. Going to the salon is one of my favorite things to do every 8 weeks.

What’s your “Bad Hair Day” go-to?
