Wishlist Wednesday: Back to School, Part 2

Wednesday, August 15, 2012

IF YOU WANT TO SEE PART 1, CLICK HERE.
I feel like I'm always making promises to you guys about what I'm going to post. Like my healthy lifestyle/goals post? Yeah whatever happened to that? Oh and what about the Wishlist Wednesday post not on a Wednesday? Well you see, I really did intend to keep those promises, but there is something called moving away from home in a week and that has pretty much been on my mind. PLUS, I got most of my Back to School shopping done clothing wise (I have some other things from my first wishlist that I have my eyes on), so I thought that showing you what I got would make up for NOT posting another wishlist. Some of my wishes were granted so hopefully these pictures do the items justice. And hopefully you can forgive me for not keeping the promises I make. Trust issues? Yeah, I know.

Oh one more thing, I'm thinking about changing my font, because I noticed that a lot of the blogs I follow have the same one, and I thought maybe you'd like to see something different. I know I'd like to see something different. So if my font changes a ton in the next few days, forgive me.

AND one more one more thing...I apologize right now for the poor quality of the pictures. I am not cool like my brother, I don't have a Canon something something that costs $3,000.00. I had to work with what I had. So please don't hate me for the bad quality. I know, I'm a bad blogger.

Just kidding ONE MORE THING, also, be ready for a lot of stripes, and remember everything looks better on than on the hanger. Does that make sense? It should. 

Anyway, ENJOY!
Dark Wash Skinny Jeans from...guess...WALMART! I know I was surprised when I found them. They are EXACTLY like Forever 21 skinny jeans. To keep them in good shape. Wash and then air dry.

A prime example that these look better on. The hanger is too small so it makes them look so frumpy. I got these at RUE 21. Unfortunately, they are not on the website, but I will link you to something similar. If you like the floral jean trend, go to your nearest Rue 21, JC Penney, or Target. They have a bunch of cute and inexpensive styles.

Another Rue 21 purchase that is not on the website. Mustard jeans were the first pair of colored skinnies that I wanted. It was like they were the most popular color when that trend started so I could never find any. I finally found some for $10?!?! Yes! BTW Rue 21 is having a BOGO for $10 deal right now. Here are some similar ones.

That is not a stain on the bottom. that's a dust fleck on my camera lense darn it. As if I didn't love mustard enough, I got a mustard cardigan, and I promise you it looks so much better on. I can't say it enough. This one is from the Gap Factory Outlet. I will probably wear it with just about everything. You can find similar ones here, here, and here.

Undershirts, tank tops in all colors and patterns. These are from The Gap, but you can get undershirts just about everywhere.

I have already worn this shirt and it is one of the most comfortable shirts I own. I love the palm tree screen print. My mom also loves this shirt because she says it reminds her of her home Puerto Rico. Man, wouldn't it be nice to grow up next to the beach? This shirt is by O'NEILL, but I got it at Ross: Dress for Less so I don't know if it will be online, but you can find similar ones here.

It's crooked...grr. Anyway, I got this at the Gap Factory Outlet, but here is a similar top also from The Gap.

I GOT A DENIM VEST! What a style step for me. Be prepared fall/winter sweaters...you will have a new friend. I got this at Ross: Dress for Less for really cheap. Way cheaper than this similar one.

C'est la Vie. LA VIE! // Billabong // Similar

I think this will look SO cute with the mustard cardigan. Ross: Dress for Less // Similar

I have already talked about this one. Got it for half price at Dillards! So worth it.

This cool shirt is reversible! WOO! I have not been able to find anything similar to it.

Another striped shirt. I know. AE // 1

I got this at a local boutique.

Wishlist Wednesday: SMS

Wednesday, July 25, 2012

I have a problem. I love skirts, pants, and shoes more than I love tops. I seriously need to start putting more tops on my wishlists. I did one last week, but it didn't get me in the mood to go shirt shopping. I think I need to go to Forever 21, H&M, Target, etc. and look at a bunch of inexpensive tops. That sounds like a great idea! But for now, I'll just share with you my SMS wishlist. What is SMS you ask? Skirt, Maxi, and Shoes. That's what my wishlist consists of. Before I start though, these two outfits have been my inspiration this week. 
 I love the bohemian vibe from both of these outfits. They are laid back, colorful, interesting, but at the same time so simple. Maxi dresses or skirts come in so many different patterns and colors. They can be dressed up or down, and really they look great any time of day. What has been inspiring you lately?
 Let's get started...

1. Skirt 
London Love Letters by Oasis // Street Scene Skirt
This lovely skirt has the streets of London printed across it. How adorable and chic is that? My kind of skirt right there. Nothing bohemian at all, but this wouldn't be a post by me if it didn't have some A-Line skirt in it.

2. The Maxi 
Blueberry Sangria Dress // Modcloth
If you don't want to go for a crazy color or pattern, a navy maxi dress is the one for you. Navy goes with just about every color ever. It's up there with black and brown. Pair it with some patterned shoes, a funky cardigan, a statement necklace or scarf, and you're good to go.

Campbell Cardigan Sweater Maxi Dress // BB Dakota
I saw this beauty in the store today. I didn't buy it, but I think I might go back and just snatch it up. It's a maxi cardigan. How great is that? It looks super cute with a maxi dress or any dress underneath. It's different and I love it. 

3. SHOES...and lots of them.
Taupe Suede Women's Desert Wedges // TOMS
TOMS just launched their Fall 2012 collection and these were part of the bunch. I don't think I'd fork over $89 for them, but I definitely want some wedge booties now.

Steve Madden // Conncord
Okay now how perfect are these? I also saw them today...and I fell in love. Pictures do not do their sparkle justice. They just sparkle, shine, shimmer, glimmer...all of those things. These are beautiful. And how great would they be with items above? Instead of having a sparkly cardigan, get a sparkly pair of shoes!

Now who doesn't love Dr. Martens? I'm asking a lot of questions today. Okay I know some people don't, but I really love them. I want a pair for fall. I have always loved the floral print ones. In fact, I became friends with this girl because of these. We had never talked before, but we went to school together. One day we were both at Dillard's and she saw me looking at these from afar. The next day she came up to me at school and said, "I don't mean to be creepy, but yesterday I saw you at Dillard's looking at a pair of Dr. Martens. I just knew we had to be friends if you liked shoes that cool." And then...we were friends.
Dr. Martens are known for their durability and quirky but timeless look. I definitely need to invest in a pair of these...One day. Oh and I'll wear them with probably everything. Won't that be great? 

Well that's all for today. If you have anything you've been wishing for comment below or make one of these posts yourself. I would also like to know what you have been inspired by lately. Have a happy Wednesday and stay golden!
