Successful shopping weekend!

     So what was supposed to be a very low key shopping day, turned into me buying wayy to many things. Originally I just wanted to buy a Vera Bradley laptop case for my new MacBook but that's not the way it turned out...
     I had Kevin with me, so naturally, I went a little crazy and bought the boy a wardrobe like I always do! We found a fabulous salmon colored custom fit Polo button up for $45 at Bloomingdales! I also finally bought myself my Ray Ban Wayfarers (also at Bloomingdales).  Then we walked around the mall for a little and went into Louis Vuitton (so I could stare at the preshh Speedy 25/30 that I will be getting once my tax return comes in). And as I was holding the two purses up to Kevin, who was spacing out, I noticed a large crowd gathering around the store outside. Then I turned around to see what Kevin was looking at, and it ended up being Lebron James!! Just sitting there in the back of the store! And Kevin didn't let me go over there to get an autograph lol..
     After all of that hooplah we continued to shop. I got the cutest seersucker dress at American Eagle! Then we went over to the Premier Outlets and Stopped by Vineyard Vines and I got a new sash to pair with that AE dress. Also HAD to stop by J. Crew and Picked up yet another new pair of chinos and a pair of 9'' mint green shorts for Kev.

AE Seersucker dress $45


 
The sash I got is actually red with blue anchors.
I got it at the Vineyard Vines Outlet store $30 :o)

     So the original purpose for even going out to shop, I was in need of a laptop case. I came to the conclusion that spending $80 for a Vera Bradley case was just way too much. So I turned to my other love, Hello Kitty. I tried to drag Kevin into the Sanrio store, but he absolutely hates everything about it, so I went in and took a quick look for myself. Unfortunately they didn't have any cases at all but they told me to look online. I went on Amazon.com and got a really cute one without all of the crazy handles and extra zippers the Vera case had.

Hello Kitty laptop case on Amazon.com $45!!
Very sleek :o)

     All of this shopping has left me wanting more! I have formulated a wish list in my head! Will post it sometime this week! Love, love, love.

When I Die, the J. Crew Outlet Store May As Well Be My Heaven...

OMGGGGGG I am so glad I got my lazy patootie outta bed and out to do some shopping! I hit the Prime Outlets here in Orlando and got some wonderful steals. For starters I got a beautiful mint green button up at J. Crew, as well as some 3in. navy blue chinos, and $6 burgundy matchstick cords. Yes you heard right $6!!! Then I got basic tee's and cami's at Forever XXI (which I had to devote a full hour to), such a mess, I can't ever wrap my head around the entire store. I also got these brown fabulous sandals at the Gap outlet store, but I can't for the life of me find a picture of them anywhere. Anyways, I also got my man a beautiful apple green polo from the Brooks Brothers factory store. Only $50! Wow I think I am gonna definitely have to go back and buy him some more in all of the colors of the rainbow. I was also thinking of buying him a tie there (at $45 a pop), but then as life would have it, the J. Crew outlet was having an even better sale, at $19.99 a tie! I think I will have to go back sometime this week before Valentine's Day and buy him at least two ties. Love, love, love!! :o)

It's Raining Pearls!

I can never understand why it is that rain makes everything ten times more difficult than it has to be.. Today was supposed to be a pretty smooth day, although I did not have the right attitude for it. I had my speech class, in which I was actually presenting a speech, and the hours leading to that speech were so very stressful!! Originally after class I was supposed to quickly run over to Bice (Bee-ch-ay), the restaurant where I work at, and start my hostess shift at 4:30. Luckily, I was called off from work, so I became a little more relaxed. I don't know wether to go shopping or not.. This rain is definitely making me not want to drive out to Winter Park to pick up my Lilly, but I may just do some online shopping instead. I am in dire need of some new jewelry (PEARLS). Hers's some cute pieces from J. Crew and Forever XXI (for a STEAL at about $4). 



J.Crew $39.50



Forever XXI a set of three $3.80

Not even expensive at all! I may even just get my little booty out of bed and head over to the mall. I need these pearls NOW! The gold flower pearls in the first picture are from Coach. I never really knew how absolutely cute there jewelry really was. And get this, THEY ARE ONLY $58!! Talk about verrry cute jewelry on a budget!
