Dress is Jcrew, Shoes are new Gianni Bini (bday gift from boss).
Played around with my rings this morning and ended up with the ring I had made from my gma's band and then my plain band that I wear around the house and what not as my "wedding set". I wouldn't wear it every day, but I like it!
OOTD: tee shirt, jeans and running shoes=horrid. Our parts manager is off this week and we have a truckload of boilers coming in so I have to help in the warehouse. Fun times! But it will make the week go fast since next week I will be sitting on the beach! ;D
Recent purchases: nothing F&B related this weekend but we finally bit the bullet and bought new kitchen cabinets! Seriously so excited, except for the fact we literally spent all day at Ikea yesterday. Too bad construction probably won't start for another 3 weeks!
I do need to find a shirt for our family pictures next week. Who knew it would be so hard to find a cute white shirt!

I did some shopping this weekend, but no pics online of what I got. It was all outlet purchases, but J. Crew had 50% off clearance. It was pretty picked over, but I got some cute staples for really cheap.

kare- love that ring! I love a good sentimental piece adlove- love saturdays outfit
I'm back from the beach and working again :-(
Couple problems with todays outfit: I meant to belt the top but left the belt at home (thought I put it in my bag).
I also am wearing winter shoes. I have a hard time with my summer shoes and crops, because they all have ankle straps and I feel like that makes my legs look weird, so I always end up wearing my kate spade sparkly shoes with these pants. My H suggested these shoes and I was all, "but they're too wintery!" and he said they weren't and then I got to work and my coworker confirmed they were a bit wintery. Sorry for the long story.
I scored the JCrew Cha Cha dress for $41 on Friday in store! It was originally $248 and is currently marked down to $170 online. But in my store, it was on sale for $70 plus extra 30% off plus 15% with school ID! It is really well-made and very flattering.
Wow thats blurry. These are my new Jcrew crops that I got at the outlet and my new nine west shoes. The cardigan is ann taylor and the top is NY and Co.
Sunday I wore the striped maxi dress I bought last week. It's on my blog today with the shoes you guys suggested.
Saturday I wore a maternity top I made myself. The top portion is just an Express t-shirt that is too short now, but I made the pleated bottom portion. The best part is it's removable and I can add it on other too short tops. I want to make another one!
Everyone looks fabulous! Kore, love the rings! Tinybride, love your craftiness!
I just got that 40% off sale items code from J. Crew, so I went on a bit of a shopping spree. My current workplace is super casual, but I'm updating my resume and will be interviewing soon since I really need a higher paying job. Picked up two pencil skirts and 2 Jackie shells for less than $100 with the code and a gift card I had laying around!
I also picked up the Lo & Sons Savoy tote since I decided my OMG was a bit big for everyday use. Had a 25% off code for that too, since I tried to order it a while ago and the color I wanted (green) was out of stock. Back in stock now, so they sent me a code and I snatched it up.
My note on my 31 for 31, the next time I do this, I'm not including the weekends. I sing in the choir at church and we typically are in some sort of uniform. This past Saturday, I was doing election/campaign related stuff, so I was in a candidate t-shirt. Not good for OOTD pictures.
Anyway - Here's my outfit for the Ledisi concert Saturday:
Everything was new: Dress - F21 Jewelry - Turkoyz Shoes - Payless Clutch - The Limited Scarf - (in case I got cold) Charming Charlie
Today:
Cardi - Target Dress - Old Navy Shoes - WHBM Jewelry - NY & Co.
