My Shopping Bag

I went to Anthropologie on Wednesday night and found some great deals.  I tried not to go overboard, but bad things usually happen when I walk into that store.  I went there with the intention of buying one dress, but I walked out with much more.  Here is a peak into my shopping bag.  Did you buy anything during this week’s markdowns? Let me know!

Fresh Picks to Follow: The Shirt Dress

I don’t know about you ladies, but I love wearing shirt dresses.  I think that I have about 8 of them in my closet right now in various styles and colors.  Earlier in the week, Glamour magazine visited Good Morning America and featured this hot summer trend. I was wore two of my shirt dresses this week and figured that I should add this staple to my Friday Fresh Picks to Follow.  A classic, clean shirt dress is the perfect piece for every season.  I think that this dress is versatile and effortless.  Style tip: Add a wide or skinny belt for extra definition.  If the dress is a solid color, then add a colorful scarf, a bold statement piece of jewelry or a printed handbag for little something extra.  Check out my top 10 shirt dresses for this week’s Fresh Pick to Follow.   Do you have a favorite shirt dress?  How many of these dresses do you own?

OOTD: From the Meadows

I haven’t posted one of these in a while, so here is one of my outfits from last week.  I paired this beautiful tank with a pair of fitted cropped pants.  I was saving this top to wear for a special occasion, but I always found something else to wear instead.  I just ended up wearing this tank to work and then for dinner after work.  That’s special right? It just goes to show you that you that you could wear your outfits anytime of day.

Did any of you ladies buy anything from Anthro’s today? I was pretty happy with the sale.  Not too many of my wish list items went on sale, so I though I would be okay.  However, I ended up buying a few things despite my wallet’s dismay.  I plan to post my shopping bag a little later tonight. 

Shirt: Anthropologie From the Meadows Tank
Pants: The Limited Stretch Cropped Pant (old)
Earrings and Necklace: Gifted
Shoes: Nine West (old)

miscellany monday

happy monday everyone – i’ve added my random ramblings to carissa’s miscellany monday party!  check out carissa’s blog here and join in on the fun. 

{one} the bachelorette.  several weeks ago i wrote about  the season premiere of the bachelorette on abc.  are any of you watching the show this season?  on tonight’s episode, ashley narrowed her search for love down to 3 contestants - j.p., ben f. and constintine.   j.p. has been my favorite from the beginning of the season….he’s hot and really sweet.  i’m definitely rooting for him and then ben f.   i wonder which one she is going to pick.  do you have any favorites?

{two} true blood.  are there any true blood fans out there?  i fell in love with this show last summer when one of my really good friends introduced me to this fantastic series.   i was able to get caught up with the first two seasons after a little true blood marathon within a matter of a week and half.  it was a little ridiculous because i stayed up until 1:00 and 2:00 am watching some of these episodes during the work week.  i was hooked after the first episode - i needed to know what happened next.  if you haven’t checked out the series, i highly recommend watching season one to get started.  i’m pretty sure that you’ll be hooked.   also check out hbo (here) for details on watching the series online.

{three} running.  i haven’t been running lately , because of the heat and humidity outside.  i should be running on the treadmill, but it doesn’t happen that often.  i do have a few races lined up over the next few weeks, so i’ll be writing updates on those soon.  i also signed up for a half marathon race scheduled on february 12, 2012.  it’s the fifth annual 26.2 with donna the national marathon to finish breast cancer – you can check out information (here) for details.

{four} a little funk.  i’ve been in kind of a funk lately and i’ve haven’t been motivated to write at all.  i just wanted to let everyone know why i haven’t been on the blogging scene.  Do you guys have any ideas or advice on getting out of my funk?  i’m going to try stay positive and get back to my regular self, but it may take a little while.
