STYLED: The Look for Less

Happy Friday!  Can you believe they are calling for MORE snow AND ice??! I am almost certain Mr. Punxsutawney Phil did not see his shadow and proclaimed "There is no shadow to be cast! An early spring is my forecast!"  I guess that's what we get for leaving our weather fortunes up to a cute little groundhog!

On a brighter note I just scored you the ever gorgeous Kate Bosworth's look totaling up a price tag just shy of $5000 for less than $500!
I call this a win!

We Found Your New Years Eve Frock

This New Year’s Eve will be a little different.  There will be no champagne toasts, no heels, or eye catching sequin dresses, and most likely there will probably not even be any lipstick. Chances are this year when the ball drops you will find me snuggled on the couch with my handsome husband, in my most comfortable pj’s, with a messy bun plopped on top of my head, accessorized by one big ole round belly that I am absolutely in love with!  With that being said, I still love a good NYE frock and decided since I won’t be out and about cheers-ing the new year I could at least share my top picks to help you all decide on your look for the evening.

I Spy

This past weekend I stopped into Urban Outfitters (one of my fave stores) and my bank account I swear started to cry with fear of the damage I was about to do!  Thank goodness my wise mama (voice of reason) helped keep me under control!

There are a few items however, I can't seem to get off my mind!

#wishlist

maxi lounge dress

ok...I'm obsessed with this print and style however, I am super funny when it comes to my "undergarments" low cut front and racer back...I don't do braless (i was not that blessed) and my VS convertible I swear can be more trouble than it's worth!  Suggestions??

jumper

one of my faves...kept going back to this top but for some reason it didn't end up in my bag :(

chiffon blouse

and I'm proud to be an American...

flag tee

I don't know that I would rock this bag too much this summer but, it caught my eye and it could also be a great transition piece into fall

double zip satchel

This little beauty I have had my eye on for a couple months now!!

I'm still holding out hoping someone who loves me a whole lot purchases it for me!

It's the most perfect accessory for the summer!

Happy Tuesday Darlings!
