I can't wait to go shopping!

Fabulous camera purses!

I am in the search for a new purse for my camera. The one that came with my digital SLR is black and boring. I found this website that has amazing purses, that look fabulous and are functional! It's called Jototes, and have so many to choose from!

I love this black one, with floral lining!

See more after the jump!

Meow Monday/Shopping

Hello :) For todays Meow Monday I'm featuring the elusive Coco. She lives at my dads, and is the bad cat that ate my camera cord. This is one of the few pictures I have of her, because she never sits still when she's in public, and most of the time she hides. She is not very social. But, she is a beautiful calico! 

Coco, the first day we got her, 4 years ago.

I wen't to Gabriel Brothers with my mom this weekend and got a few new things! I know while I'm on my challenge I really shouldn't, but I couldn't pass up some great deals! They have designer clothing for very cheap, and it's hit and miss; somedays you find fabulous things, others nothing. Today was one of those days where I liked everything. Here is this knitted top I loved so much, I got it in purple and yellow! They were $6 each.

  

I also bought this fabulous skirt for $8!

And I paired it with this yellow top to go shopping. Both new, but included it in the challenge as wild card pieces. 

I paired it with these yellow wedges. These shoes are actually from Junior homecoming, back in high school! My mom rhinestoned them for me, and I wore a short yellow sequined dress. Oh memories..

This is the yellow dress.. those were the days of little Adrienna. Oh I wish I was that small again..

Today's work outfit.

These are shoes I got at a local consignment store for $4.00. 

I hope you guys have an amazing monday!

Floral Friday

One of my favorite things to do is hang out with my best friends, Maggie and Lizzie. Yesterday, the two came over and we had a fabulous girls night! Complete with painting our nails and baking. It was perfect, and much needed. Life can get so hectic but being with my friends reminds me what life is all about, faith, love, and nail polish!

I'm obsessed with floral. Absolutely obsessed! I love everything floral, from dresses to shoes to jewelry. I own over a dozen floral dresses and it takes everything in my power not to buy more! They're perfect for summer, and since I am moving to Savannah, Georgia in September, I figure they will work much better there than in Ohio, where I currently live. I just love how youthful and feminine they are, and the prints are becoming more vintage, which I also love! (I keep using love, but I have to emphasize how much I adore floral!) Here's a collection of some of my favorite things. I wish I had the money to buy them all!

 

These are both from Etsy seller Jennifer Lilly Designs. I love everything of hers! Especially the pink one on the right. The shape is perfect and the pattern is so darling!

      

First Dress    Second Dress    Third Dress

One of my favorite online shops is modcloth.com. They have the perfect selection of unique and vintage inspired designs. But, if you love something you see, I suggest buying it asap, because everything sells out very quickly. I've waited too long on a few dresses, and when I went on to order them, they were sold out :/  For example, the last dress was just available when I started writing this blog 10 min ago! And now it's sold out!

First Dress   Second Dress    Third Dress    Fourth Dress

Another great store is the FABULOUS forever21! I live by this store. It's perfect for a college student like me who doesn't have the money for expensive clothing. In fact, I recently ordered three dresses from them, and I wear them all the time! This is another store that sells out quickly, and has new items weekly, so don't wait too long to order! 4 things on my wish-list are already no longer for sale. 

Are there any other fabulous and inexpensive stores you guys know about? I'm always looking for new places to get cutes stuff!

Nautical Love

I absolutely love nautical themed items. From housewares, to clothing to accessories, nothing says summer like Nautical. It makes me feel calm and collected, like I'm at the beach.

Pink Sperrys UPDATE

UPDATE!
They came in the mail today.. and they fit :):):) A tiny bit snug, but i'm going to wear them everyday until they fit perfect!


So I was going to buy a pair of pink Sperrys like these...

and had them in my shopping bag at zappos.com since everywhere else they were sold out in my size, 6.5 (I'm normally a 7 but they said to order a half size smaller) but right as I clicked order, they were sold out! I even called zappos and they couldn't help me :/ so I had to order a size 6. I hope they fit! I checked everywhere, from amazon to ebay to Sperry's website. So i'm stuck with a size 6. 

 Has anyone had this problem, where right as they were ordering an item, and they sold out? Or, does anyone have Sperry's? Do they stretch out well?
