Forever 21 Haul (Trixie)

I recently did some shopping on the Forever 21 website and bought several accessories. Since I am required to wear a uniform at school, I like to wear cute headbands, jewelry, etc. to give my outfit a little bit of individuality. In addition to the uniform accessories, I bought two items that are shown in the pictures below. The first is a colorful sweater-top that I thought looked comfy but also cute. The second picture is of a black beret adorned with a bow (I love bows!). I bought this hat because it was on my fashion wish list. Whenever I have money set aside for shopping, I write down a list of general clothing items or trends that I wish to try. This helps me to shop with a purpose and keep me from impulse buying. (P.S.: Now is a great time to shop on the Forever 21 website! You don't have to pay shipping if you spend more than $40!!)

What Fall Nail Polish Shade Should You Wear?

Cool New Blog Site!

I just discovered this site called Polyvore. People create collections of different outfits based on ideas or movies. My favorite ones are based on movies or tv. This girls profile is my favorite. Later this week I plan on posting some of my fashion finds from Destin. Until then, www.polyvore.com/cgi/profile?id=467960

BLUSH (trixie)

There is a store called Blush next door to my local Target, and I have always seen the cutest dresses in their window displays. I recently went inside to check the store out and expected it to be a very expensive boutique. Boy, was I wrong! Items sell for around $30 to $100 (I know that seems a little pricey, but compare that to a store like Anthropologie where you are lucky to get a shirt for $30 when it is on sale.) I heard from a sales clerk there that Blush buys clothing from designers new to the fashion scene, and they have completely new merchandise in the store about every week. The clothes sold their are trendy and/or vintage-chic. They sell shoes too, but they are not as eye-catching as the apparel. Yesterday at Blush, I bought a printed, earthy-toned dress with a ruffled, scoop neck collar that came with a knit belt with a large leather buckle. I also bought a lace sweater/cover up that I can wear with just about anything. Both are amazingly cute; the dress was $40.99, and the sweater was $44.99.

Off to Destin!

Well, I'm off to Destin tomorrow and thought I'd do a post before I went. I bought the sandals below from Forever21.com because they looked perfect for just slipping on and going! I also recently discovered this website: www.shopruche.com/index.php The clothes while cute are not quite as affordable but the site is definitely fun to peruse. AND ALSO THE LAST HARRY POTTER MOVIE TRAILOR IS OUT!!! Check it out! www.youtube.com/watch?v=_EC2tmFVNNE
