Summer Shopping

Hello fashionistas!

Over the past few weeks I have picked up a few new things. Losing weight means my clothes are way too big! Anyways, here is what I have purchased. 

This is a gorgeous hi-lo dress from Kohl's in the Simply Vera Vera Wang line. I had tried this dress on in a medium when it was full price and a little tight across the chest. I went back a month and a half later, found it, tried it on, and it fit like a glove! Plus it was over half off- steal! I cannot wait to wear this.

This is also from Kohls you can buy it here. I love having a simple LBD to throw on during summer. Easily dressed up with jewelry and heels or dressed down with a sunhat and sandals. 

This was also from Kohl's and it is the softest material ever. It reminds me of a yoga pant skirt.. Which is the epitome of comfort, soooo obviously it had to be purchased. I will probably pair this with a black v-neck and gladiators. Plus some sassy aviators. 

This top is from Target and it was on major sale- only seven bucks! I love wearing cobalt with a tan! 

This bodycon skirt is from Target and was also on major sale for a mere ten dollars. I love the turquoise and navy stripes. I wore this out to dinner last night; I will post an outfit of the day this weekend!

I purchased two bikini tops while at Target. I have lost enough weight that I feel confident enough to wear one, but I plan on wearing them with a swim skirt because I'm not ready to go completely bare! 

These are really comfortable.

Have you guys purchased any new clothing? 

I'm off to go help my mom pack; she is leaving for Michigan tomorrow for TWO WEEKS. Sadness. 

I will miss her so much.

Have a great weekend!

Haul Time

Hello fashionistas!

Sorry for being a wee bit missing this week. My life has been super hectic and stressful this week. I would have posted on Friday, when things finally slowed down, but I went out with my boyfriend to see The Fray play. The concert was really good, sadly didn't snap any pictures of the concert/what I wore. 

Any-who, I did a little shopping today and thought I'd whip out a quick post to share it with you guys!

My mom had to run into Petco and Ross was next door, so I ran in there for a few minutes. 

Walked away with this super cute Tommy Hilfiger bag and a few other items. Instead of ordering any of the Aldo bags I posted about I decided to get this. It's perfect for me and for summer! I love the pink and white mixed with a splash of red and the warm brown handles/piping are great. 

I needed another pair of black wedges because my Aerosoles were getting worn like nobody's business! 

So, I picked these up from Ross. Comfortable and a nice height. What's not to love? 

Randomly tried on this dress and decided that I had to have it! It hits right at my knees and ties in the back. 

I like that the back has a sassy little cut out. Will definitely be getting a lot of wear out of this during the summer.This was also purchased at Ross. 

Next weekend I'm going to the wedding that I've been talking about for ages and I needed new black pumps to go with my dress. I can't wait to take outfit pictures that night to share with you all. These are from Kohl's. 

My all time favorite concealer was out, so I obviously had to repurchase! I actually had my dad do it for me because he was out at a conference all week in Las Vegas and was staying in the Venetian hotel and they have a Sephora about 2.5 seconds away, so I requested that he pick me up another concealer instead of buying me a souvenir. He said he showed the text to one of the assistants at the store and that they "went right to it" and he said he was "very impressed." Oh dad. I also requested a Las Vegas pen, but he forgot about that. 

I'm super exhausted, so I'm off to go curl up into my bed. 

I'm beaching it with the boyfriend tomorrow, can't wait! 

Loads of love!

Flowered, Black, and White.

Hello fashionistas!

Happy Hump Day. Only 2 more days until glorious Friday. I'm seriously ready for this week to come to an end! The weekend is calling my name. 

Anyways, outfit of the day from last Friday. I wore this to school and then to a dinner for one of my mom's friend's for her MBA graduation celebration. 

Dress: Kohl's Shoes: Aerosoles Earrings: Forever 21 Bracelet: Belk

I picked this black and white patterned dress up 2 weeks ago at a random Kohl's trip with my mom. 

I'm in absolute love with the cut of this dress, it's very flattering and hits at the perfect length. I kept the accessories simple because of the pattern. I did throw on my turquoise drop earrings for a pop of color. Just a bit of sparkle! 

I wish I remembered what I used for my eye makeup. I think I just did a brown subtly smokey eye with my Naked 1 and Naked 2 palettes. The usual!

I noticed in my last post that a lot of you said my skin was "glowing" and first of all, thank you so much! Secondly, I think it's glowing because I've been using my sample of Nars' Orgasm Illuminator. I love it. 

I need to buy the full size. Seriously. 

I'm off to go bake some cookies- pumpkin spice! Mmm. 

After that I have to go finish some homework and clean up my room. It's in a state of disaster.

Loads of love!

Haul Time

Hello fashionistas!

This weekend I did some shopping with my mom and aunt. My mom had a 30% coupon for Kohl's because she's has a Kohl's charge so we went there on Sunday. 

 I am in complete love with this dress by Elle. It's sort of color-blocked, which is going to be huge again this season. I'm working on color-blocking, I'm never sure if it looks good on me! I like this because it's already color-blocked and the pattern makes it less obvious. I love the bow belt, cinches in and looks really cute. This dress is really good for my figure. 

 I picked up this blazer that was on mega sale. You guys know I'm such a huge fan of blazers. They are my signature piece! This is a bit big, but I wanted it loose. I didn't have a grey one or a plaid one, so obviously it had to be added my collection! (;

I've also been on the hunt for a colored jacket/blazer. So, I found this rust colored blazer. It's like a lighter fabric, not so structured. It does have a lapel like a blazer, so I'm calling it a blazer! I do not like the way this photographed, it looks so boxy! When I tried it on it wasn't boxy. 

My mom and I ventured over to JcPenny today and I found this adorable shirt for only $9! That's right, single digits! Their new pricing system is kind of weird, but I'm not complaining because if this shirt hadn't been on sale it would have been in the $30-40 range. I like the color because I think it will be really good for spring, a nice pale pastel. I think the gold buttons are super cute. Plus it fits in with my current obsession, bow blouses. 

I needed new shoes really badly, but I've been on the hunt for pointy ("pizza-toe") black heels for awhile. I found a pair that I liked and that were comfortable! These are from Belk. 

Today I worked out and then went with my mom to an eye appointment. I got my new glasses in, I'll put them up in a post sometime next week. I need to get adjusted to them, they were making me dizzy earlier!

I'm off to get ready for tomorrow and watch the Bachelor. 

I'm not looking forward to jumping back into school because of the nice 3 day weekend I've had. Hey, at least it's a shorter week!

Curls and Bows

Hello fashionistas!

I finally wore the Michael Kors shirt I bought over break. Not going to lie, I'd almost forgotten I bought this. I remembered I had purchased it when one of my friends had on a blue v-neck shirt on which sparked the memory of me buying this. I was so drawn to this shirt because of the color. Blues is a color that always manages to look good on me, so when I tried it on I knew I had to have it. Plus the ruching on the sleeves is really slimming. Sorry I didn't get any arm details!

Shirt: Michael Kors (Marshalls) Jeans: Kohls Shoes: Kohls, a long time ago Purse: Jessica Simpson Necklace: Forever 21 Earrings: Forever 21 Headband: Claire's 

Went for my usual smokey brown eyes, which is pretty much my favorite thing. I used a bronze lipgloss, even though my lips are so pigmented that it doesn't look completely bronze. I'd been dying to curl my hair, so I just did it. I gave it a lot of volume and slipped a headband in (hello Blair, a.k.a Leighton Meester). It was very bombshell-esque.


Have a great weekend!

Pretty in Purple

Hello fashionistas!

I thought I'd share an outfit that I wore to school on Monday with you all. 

My parents had new carpet put in that day, hence why there wasn't any carpet in these photos! 

Top: Forever 21 Blazer: New York and Company Tanktop: Kohl's Jeans: Belk Shoes: Target Purse: Jessica Simpson Earrings: Old Navy Necklace: Tiffany & Co. 

I was in a mood that made me just want to dress up. I've been waiting to wear this shirt and that day just felt like a good day to wear it! Paired it with my white blazer to offset the purple. Dark jeans to balance out the brightness and my favorite heels to finish it off. 

Very simple makeup. All I used on my eyes was Urban Decay's "Whiskey" eyeliner on lower lashline and mascara on my upper lashes. I wasn't feeling like putting on a bunch of makeup. Sometimes I need simple and that was one of those days!

Notice the hair twist?.. It's becoming my favorite hair thing. 

Today I have no exams because my pottery is a 6/7 class. My mom and I are going out to lunch at my favorite restaurant in town, Harry's. Then I have an eye appointment to get my perscription checked and because I'm almost out of contacts. 

Five day weekend for me because of Martin Luther King Day on Monday and a teacher planning day on Tuesday. Woo! 

On a random note, got a 96% on my history exam. Very pleased! 

Have a great weekend!

Loads of love!

Haul- Forever 21 and Kohl's

Hello fashionistas!

I went shopping with my best friends the other day and picked up a few things. My mom went to Kohl's today and bought me two things. 

My mom bought me this jacket from Kohl's because over spring break my dad and I are going to New York City and I'm going to need a real coat. It's a fancy peacoat! It looks way better on than it does on the hanger. 

Button detail shot, the buttons have anchors on them. 

Mom also picked this up for me. I had tried this on a few months ago, but hadn't bought it because it was sort of expensive. As you all know I love sheer tops and pussybows, plus the magenta color makes it a total Savannah shirt!

Detail shot. 

This is from Forever 21. I love the color and when I wear it it's very drape-y and flow-y. 

Rhinestone detail shot. 

I bought a bunch of earrings. I've been sticking with studs for awhile, so I'm branching back out into big, statement earrings. I also bought this ring because it was on sale and the purple top was a sale item, so I got the ring for free.

Again, from Forever 21. It's a very long, seed bead necklace. I can think of a multitude of ways to tie and wear this! 

I have a discount code for you all to use at Kohls.

If you all sign up for Kohl's sale alerts here, you all will receive $5 off of your next in-store purchase and 10% off of your next online purchase!

Hope you enjoyed my haul! 

I'm snuggled up with my mom watching a movie right now. 

I'm going to be putting up my Christmas presents either tomorrow or the next day. 

Loads of love!

Makeup and Outfit of the Day 12-22-11

Hello fashionistas! 

I went down for a quick visit to my aunt's work with my mom and sister this morning. 

This is what I wore for makeup and for my clothing. 

The clothing worn in the makeup pictures were pre me getting dressed. I was wearing my diy galaxy shirt when I took these. 

Face

MAC matte creme 

Benefit Boi-ing Concealer

Maybelline Purestay Powder Foundation in 'ivory'

Physcian's Formula translucent powder

ELF Contouring and Blush duo (bronzer only to contour)

Maybelline mousse blush in 'Cloud Wine' 

Eyes

Urban Decay Primer Potion in Sin

Kitten eyeshadow mixed with a pale, shimmery mauve shadow all over my lid

Urban Decay's Buck in my crease 

Urban Decay's Virgin as my highlight

Covergirl's Lashblast mascara

Lips

MAC Speed Dial lipstick

Covergirl Red Riot Wetslicks lipgloss

I'm convinced that this lip combination makes the perfect, holy grail hot pink lip!

I didn't want to overpower this lip combo, so I stick with a simple pink and brown eye. I think a smokey eye would look good too; for a more formal occasion than just running out and about!

Hair photo.

I quickly ran my straightener over my hair (just to smooth out any lumps from sleeping on it). Then I took a bit of the top layer and pushed it up with a small hair clip. Slipped on a beaded headband from Forever 21 and I was done. Very easy and it dressed my hair up!

Top & Blazer: Kohls Jeans: Gloria Vanderbilt Shoes: Target Bracelet: local store Necklace: Tiffany & Co. Bag: Ivanka Trump Headband: Forever 21

This was just a very simple, quick outfit. I thought pairing the black with my cream bag created a classy effect. 

Hope you enjoyed!

Happy day before Christmas Eve!

Ladylike Style

Hello belles!

Long time no post! This week was an extremely jam packed, fun, exhausting week! 

Wednesday my friends and I had to work on our history project, we had to write a song about Germany and all of their colonies back in the 1900s and make a map to go along with it. We wrote the lyrics last Sunday, started recording it Wednesday, but we didn't finish it. Yesterday two out of the five, plus me (we were the ones who actually recorded it) came over and we finished it! I'm very proud of us.

Then Thursday was my actual birthday and my mom, dad, sister, and I went out the Cheesecake Factory for dinner, delicious! Then mom and I went to Sephora; I actually didn't buy anything! After that we went to Forever 21 for a few minutes and I bought a cardigan and some earrings. 

So please forgive me for not posting this week! 

Onto a little something I wore this week. 

I hadn't worn this pencil skirt in a long, long, long time, so I decided to wear it this week. 

Dressed it down with this jacket and a simple black top. Accented with silver shoes and I was ready to go! 

Jacket: JCP Shirt: Jones New York Tank top: Kohls Skirt: Coldwater Creek Shoes: Payless 

I have a funny story about this jacket. A few weeks ago I let my best friend Lily borrow my favorite jean blazer, actually my only jean blazer. Seen here and in many other posts on my blog.

Anyways, she wore it back to her house and somehow it just 'disappeared.'

She claims to have looked everywhere for it and just can't find it (okay, I know she did, but still it was my favorite jacket)! 

So homegirl said she'd buy me a new one or make it up to me. The point was that she shouldn't have just borrowed it and lost it! I wanted my jacket back. So, Lily went in her closet and finds this jacket and goes "here it's yours now."

That would be the story about how I acquired this article of clothing! 

Oh Lily, how you make me laugh. 

I'm off to get ready for a little party for my cousin's birthday; she's turning 19 on the 16th of this month. Happy almost birthday Meg! 

I'll be taking pictures of all my birthday presents and posting them up here either Sunday or Monday.

Loads of love!

Jaguar Colors

Hello fashionistas!

Sorry for not posting all weekend. My friends and family threw me a surprise birthday party on Saturday, will be posting pictures this week! It was the best thing ever. My mom was sneaking around and planning it all with my friends and family, I had no clue! 

Anyways, I thought I'd show you all what I wore to school on Thursday. 

Top and tanktop: Kohls Pants: Gloria Vanderbilt Cardigan: Target Shoes: Forever 21 Earrings: Mom's, sorry you can't see them! They were just dangly earrings.

I wanted to wear my blank pants because I hadn't worn them in a couple weeks, I thought the cream would contrast nicely with them. I threw the teal cardigan on for a pop of color! I needed smidgen of pattern, so hence the cheetah shoes. Very comfortable and cute outfit. 

My mom said that these colors reminded her of the Jaguar football team; that would be why I titled it "Jaguar Colors." 

I'm not looking forward to going to school tomorrow. I'm so exhausted! I had such a jam packed, extremely fun weekend. I wish it could just continue on! 

Have a great Monday!

Preppy Princess

Hello my fabulous fashionistas!

Sorry for not posting the past few days, I've been busy and sick. Busy + sick = the worst combination ever (and a sleepy Savannah)! 

I wore this outfit to school on Monday and thought I'd share it with you all.

I was feeling preppy, so I paired this mock layered sweater with my camel blazer and pencil skirt. For a little sass I added my black chunky heels. It needed a bit of sparkle, hence the hair clip. 

 Top: Kohls Blazer and Shoes: Target Pencil skirt: Coldwater Creek Ring: mom's Earrings: Forever 21

Today was the start of my Thanksgiving break. I spent majority of it on the couch because when I woke up I knew my cold had made the transition into a sinus infection. After my dad got home from work he took me to the CVS Minute Clinic; my doctor was out of town. Like I  had suspected it was another sinus infection! After that we went to the mall. My dad bought another pair of Cole Haan shoes and I bought some self tanner and lotion at Bath and BodyWorks. Then we went to Harry's, a local seafood restaurant, and had a delicious dinner. 

Tomorrow Dad, Colby (the dog), and I are going to drive to my Nana's to meet up with my mom, sister, uncle, aunt, and cousin for Thanksgiving. 

Have a great Thanksgiving!

Polka Dotted.

Hello fashionistas!

I thought I'd go ahead and share with you all what I wore to school on Tuesday. 

After school I had my High Q match. Good news, the JV team won! Very exciting, now we're going to the district match. Which is an all day event which means I'll get out of school for the day. 

 Blazer, tank top, dress: Kohls Shoes: Payless Necklace: Forever 21 Hairclip: Target 

I bought this dress at Kohls a few weeks ago and I've been dying to wear it! It has been warm again the past couple of days, so I decided to wear it. I thought it needed a blazer to go over it seen as it is November. For spring/summer I'd definitely just throw on a pair of wedges and be good to go! 

I loved that the name of the dress was "Parisian Chic" ,too cute.

I woke up this morning with a pounding headache, sadly the headaches has not ceased all day! Today has been an extremely long day and I had a ton of homework to do; luckily I'm almost done with everything. I have a French and a math quiz tomorrow, so I still need to look over a few things. 

I'm off to finish homework and studying!

Lots of love!
