The Debut of the Dagmar / Fresh Picks to Follow - Top 10 Holiday Gifts Under $100.00

The Debut of the Dagmar

This past Friday my office administrative staff threw all the employees a breakfast to show how much they appreciate us.  It was pretty cool…I have never been to anything like that before.  They made us French toast, potato hash brown au gratin, cheese and bacon grits, egg and sausage casserole, a spiraled ham, croissants, fruit salad and blueberry muffins.  There was so much food and everything was amazing.  I wish I took a picture of all of the food. 

I wore my Dagmar shirtdress for the first time last Friday.  I really love this dress.  I’m so happy that I was able to track this down a couple of months ago…it truly makes a statement.  I paired this with a pair of black opaque tights and black suede boots.  I also added a black skinny suede flower belt from Anthropologie.  As you can tell from the second picture, I went to Anthro and I ended up trying on a few things.  Stay tuned for some reviews of dresses and skirts.  I really hope that I get a gift card this Christmas because I'm in trouble.  I want everything!

A Snow-Covered Sale and I'm So Excited!

So from what I can tell, it looks like Anthropologie is getting ready to have their Semi-Annual Tag sale…and the sale is starting tomorrow, December 21^st.  This will be my first tag sale, so I’m very excited.  I was hoping that the sale would start next week because my funds are running low.  I can’t believe how much I’ve already spent at this store.  I’m going to try to stick to buying things only on my wish list…so, we’ll see how that is going to work :)  Let me know what’s on your wish list and what you plan to buy.
