MACY'S SUMMER DRESES - HAUL

I know it's another haul, but it's the perfect time of year to buy those cute summer dresses.  Macy's has great sales, especially on weekends.  I bought all these for $34.  The first one was $20 and the other 2 were $10.  Use your Macy's card for 20% off.

I love the detail pocket on this dress.

I love the shoulders of this dress.  I can wear this dress alone or with leggings and heals.

I'm waiting for the weather to warm up, but we are planning a trip to Vegas and Palm Springs.  I know its in the 100's there.  It's perfect for summer dresses!

Do you like to wear dresses?  What about in the the winter months?

FOREVER 21 FASHION + ACCESSORIES - HAUL

Forever 21 is great because you can look good on any budget.  I even think they have brought their prices down.  Tanks & Tees for $3.50 - 5.

This haul was a little funny to me. Why? Because I went in looking for long sleeved shirts in the middle of summer. Why do I need warm shirts?  I live on the coast in California and we have NO summer.  Our high has been 71/72 for weeks.  Not to mention its overcast, so I need long sleeves.

All these shirts were under $17.  I been loving cardigans and stripes this season.

I've been wearing a lot of blues.  It's a mood I'm in. It's the nest step up from black for me I guess.

Lace & pleats are big right now.

I love feathers and I couldn't pass up this wallet.  These aren't my favorite style because you can't get a lot in there, but I'll live.  I don't think it matches my purse either, but feathers!

I found these at Westminster Mall in Westminster, California.  It's a "$1" store, but everything is $1-4.  It's across DSW.  They really have great finds.  The rings were $2, earring $1, glasses $3, nail decals $2.   It reminds me of shopping in Santee Alley in the mall.  If your near, check it out.  

What's you latest and greatest cheap find?

FOREVER21/haul

I picked up a few goodies.  I think everything is under $17.  

I thought these would look good by themselves or under a jacket/sweater.

The outer 2 shirts wold be good with my Forever 21 Skinny black jeans.  The odd ball blue dress was $7.  I can wear it as a dress or a bathing suit cover.

I think I've more in love with clothes lately.  What have you been in love with this month?

MY NEW SPRING PURSE

Forever 21 $16.50

I fell in love with this as soon as I saw it.  It reminds me of spring and summer and vacation.  We're planning  trip, and I thought this purse was perfect.  It's roomy and light weight.  It also has a shoulder strap.

Maybe this is a passing whim, but for the price, it makes me happy.

What's your favorite purse?  Do you switch purses each season?

OOTD/Date Night

This is an easy go to outfit for me.  All I do is change the shirt to dress it up or down.  I even wore a plain tank and put on some long pearls before, and it looked great.  

This whole outfit is from Forever 21, & it was a great price too.

Blazer: Found Here

Jeans: Found Here

I have been hearing some mixed feelings about Forever 21 lately, but I do still love it. I can buy a new outfit to make myself feel good without breaking the bank. 

How do you feel about Forever 21?  Do you shop high end or as I call it affordable chic? 

OUTFIT OF THE DAY

I loved what my daughter had on today. I think it's a look any age could wear. The boots are O'neal fringe. They look & feel like Uggs, love Uggs, but are $60.

This is the whole look. Very Gap Christmas looking. I love flannel & plaid shirts with jeans. Warm & comfy, but stylish.
Shirt: American Eagle

Jeans & long sleeve T Forever 21

What is your comfy, but stylish look?

FOREVER 21 HAUL

Forever 21, you just cant beat the prices. I never feel guilty for buying what I like.

This skirt is really black, but the color looks off, $14.

It's tight fitting & I love the pleats in the back. Makes the butt look Jloish.
This is a silk cami, $15. I'm pairing it w/a boyfriend blazer & skinny jeans.
The tights are textured & i thought would look great with all black skirt or dress. The belts were 2/$5. I'm planning on wearing the black skirt w/a plain black shirt & a leopard belt & boots.
Have you seen the great jewelry they have? I want it all. I like there shoes, but they feel so hard, I don't know. I love the La Girls nail polish. Have you tried that. You could get them at F21 online now.

What's the last thing you bought from F21?

Disclaimer: I have bought all my own products. I was not paid by a company for my review or haul. This is my honest opinion.

JIMMY CHOO SHOES

I was shopping at Nordstroms and these Jimmy Choo's blew me away. I have no where to wear them & at $645 I think you should wear them a lot. It's one of those moments when you fall in love with something you won't or can't have.

What is the thing that has taken your breath away recently?

LA GIRLS NAIL POLISH @ FOREVER 21

I have been loving all my LA Girls products. Forever 21 has brought in Nail Polish now. They come in beautiful colors and are only $2.80. I bought these 2 for a test run. This is just 2 coats. I was worried at first because the first coat was so thin, but after the second coat I was in love. I didn't use a top coat to see if they would chip, but they lasted 4 days w/ no top coat. The brush on these is really good too. It's thick, not flimsy or narrow.

I also bought this beautiful green/teal one. Look how pretty the girls. This is a color for fall trends that I saw on Mac. I think it's a great price for the polish & the colors are vibrant.

Have you tried any L.A. Girls products? What do you think of them?

What's your favorite Nail color?

FOREVER 21 HAUL

Since I haven't been excited about makeup, this is what I've been doing: shopping. I picked up a few things at Forever 21. I think I mostly buy tops because I'm either in jeans or a dress for everyday. Everything was under $19.

These are the colors for fall pink & purples. I love them both. I thought this was too cute. It may look a bit summery, but in Cali, I think are summer ends in November.

I love this top because you could dress it down or up. On cold days I could add a sweater. This was $13 & a color i don't usually wear, but I bought it because I wanted to do a green eye look. It looks so good on with a long gold necklace & it's so soft.
Next I'm hauling for some boots.

What are you looking to buy this fall?

FOREVER 21 JEWELRY HAUL + something extra

I have been back to school shopping with the girls this past week & have picked up a couple of goodies along the way! The fall clothes are starting to come in & it's getting exciting. Purples & soft shades of pinks are huge.

I always find little cute nail art decals or paints at checkout. So don't forget to look around the registers. I want to do some nail designs, so I thought these Art Deco paints would be great. They were $1.80 & so was the blush. The blush is so pretty. It reminds me of a beauty powder blush by Mac. It brightens w/out the disco glitter. They had it in 3 shades, I am going back. What a great deal.

I can not say enough about the beautiful & more importantly great prices of their jewelry, belts, & scarves. Everything I got was under $5.80. I can take a simple white or black tee & make it look great! I call my clothes mommy gear chic, & F@! helps me get there. This bracelet was $3.80. It's a cuff & the gold looks great w/my fake tan, haha! I have a leaf necklace I bought there a while ago that would look good together.

The black bracelet with the silver studs will make any simple shirt dressy & fun. I have been seeing shirts, purses, & jeans with the studs for fall. I love the bangles. The noise makes me happy, weird I know.

I have a couple of other hauls coming up. This summer has been slow with the hauls. I guess I was too busy & really wasn't that inspired by the collections.

I did go to Ulta & picked up some things, which I will post. Not too much from the wish list though.

So are you ready for fall? What's your fave fall color in clothes & makeup?

FOREVER21- HAUL

Strappy orange tuxedo top. ($18)
I wore this bracelet($4.80) Earrings($2.80)
Sorry I forgot to turn this pic around. This style/print is everywhere now. The feathers, peacock, & jungle prints. Too cute.($17)
The summer sales have started to make room for fall clothes. Time to hit up the sales!!

Where do you love shopping? Online?

MAC COO + FASHION HAUL

I made a small trip to the CCO & I found a couple of things from the Ungaro collection. I really like a lot of the collection. It's another collection I passed over of course.

E/S in Mineral & L/S Freckletone. I was excited about the l/s because I wanted that color. It's a really pretty deep nude/brown.
These shoes are by Chinese Laundry. The are very high & very comfortable.I love the color. They look great with everything.
I love this dress. The color is pretty & details are pretty.
This is my favorite. It can be worn as a dress or with leggings. The top is beaded & I love the colors. My shoes look pretty with it too.
I love summer clothes & shoes. What's your favorite summer shoe or dress? What's your favorite season?

FOREVER 21 - HAUL

Today is my anniversary( I won't tell you how many years, you won't believe me)!!  I am super excited because we are going out for dinner & drinks.  I stopped at Forever 21 to pick something up for the our night out, & a couple of extras.

This is what I'm wearing: Dress $20

This shirt is so soft & light. It's form fitting & very comfy. $12. It comes in black too.
On the way out I found this pretty leaf necklace($4) & they had these LA Colors Nail Art Deco paints in 5 colors (1.80). I got the black for lepard nails!
I love F21 & they just opened one up in my downtown area. It takes me 2 min. to get there, bad for the wallet!  I also picked up a shirt for Suga Daddy, I really do call him that,  they have a men's section too.

Well I'll let you know about my night!!!  

FOREVER 21 - NAIL DECALS HAUL

COST $1.80

 I went back to Forever  21 for more of the LA Girl e/s & found these.  They are great for your own mani/pedi. I'm planning on using them for a pedi. There's a bunch of little stickers, so it's good for more than a 1 time use. I'll put up a pic of the pedi, but I'm not a huge fan of toes!!  Do you do your own pedi's or mani's? I've been since my friend got a toe nail fungus, yuk! I'm paranoid now:(

FOREVER 21 - HAUL

So I found something interesting at Forever 21, eyeshadow. Look how pretty!!

They were the register for only$2.80. They had more colors, but I wanted to see if they were even pigmented first, & they are. They are really soft, but a bit powdery. I can live with it.
This dress was $19. I love the detail in he back!  I'm going to pair it up with all my colorful jewelry & belts for summer.
And finally, this little skinny watchband belt($10). I think it will work with everything.

I'm getting the summer bug, not ready for the bathing suit just yet though!
