Comfy Clothes

So I'm going to put a whole bunch into one post. Here is goes:

Ins/Outs of  April and May:

Out: 10 items to a consignment store. Some of the skirts were hard to part with, but they just didn't fit anymore. I didn't take photos of any of it.

Two of the items already sold, and I made 4.40 off of them. Not much but better than nothing.



In:

shoptherage.com
Chevron Maxi Skirt: 34.00


 Charlotte Russe:
Pink Skirt: 2.99
Black/White Chiffon Tank 19.99




Old Navy:
Green Tank: 1.97
Blue Stripe Tank Dress: 15.94 (coupon)
Striped Henley Shirt: 1.78





Target:

Black Asymmetrical Zip Up: 34.99



Body Central:
Purple Necklace: 3.90



Charming Charlie:
 Anchor Necklace: Around 6?


F21:
Sunglasses: 5.80



Total:
 127.36-4.40=  $122.96

Doing great budget wise. Some of these items were a real splurge for me ( the black jacket and the maxi skirt) since they weren't on sale in any way, plus I had to pay to ship the skirt, but I got a steal on a ton of other items so it balances out I think.


Todays outfit, comfy and casual, without being in my actual pajamas. Haha.  No shoes, no makeup. No hairdryer. My hair looks like a hot wild mess without a diffuser, but I'm not leaving the house, so who cares? P.S., It's still half wet in the photos.

 

Skirt: Burlington Coat Factory, only 13 bucks!
Tank: TJ Maxx
Shades: NYand Co


 Natural ombre. Huh. I think it's because the ends are dry and the top half isn't...

Summer is here!

Well, not officially according to the calendar, but I'm on break! It's been a whirlwind week and I've fallen a big off the wagon again. But I'm gonna get right back to it! So excited for summer stylin. I think I'll be messing around with more hair, makeup, and nail stuff this summer too, which I'll prolly document for you all myself.

Here's what I wore on teacher institute day:



 Sandals: Shoe Carnival
Dress: Old Navy
Bubble Necklace mini: Amazon.com



 Despite wearing makeup, it looks like I just rolled out of bed. I know subtle is good, but perhaps I need to step it up a notch? Especially on my poor naked lips.



Polish: Revlon 640 fearless. One of my new favs.

I think it's also safe to say I might be wearing this dang bubble necklace with just about everything now. So much for not giving in to the trend. At least I'm getting my moneys worth right?

Also, I'm in a shopping slump. It's kinda makin me sad. Went to several stores, found nothing but a clearance plain green tank top at Old Navy. I'll have to do a May purchase/budget post, ala Franish and figure out what I actually got.I can't even remember! I don't know if I bought this dress this month, or last. probably early May...it's been a looooong month!

Back in Time

Dress: H&M, handed down from sister
Earrings: NY & Co














I got a crazy amount of compliments on this dress today. I think it's because it's so...different. My coworker said it was very 70's. Totally true. Kinda love it. Kinda hate these crazy sleeves though. They drag all through everything. I'm thinking about cutting/hemming them into short sleeves. Thoughts?

Bubble Necklace

I caved. I bought a bubble necklace. I still kind of hate the HUGE ones (totally not me) but thought I could pull off the smaller version. I had it on my amazon list for ages. I wish it was silver and not gold, but oh well. It's definitely cheap (the "gold
 is not even shiny, its pretty matte, which only makes it look more cheap), and they have nicer ones at Charming Charlie now that I've gotten the one from amazon, but what are ya gonna do? When the trend dies, at least I didn't pay too much. And it doesn't look terrible, just not as nice as some other knockoffs I've seen.


Flats: Walmart
Skirt & Tank: H &M
Necklace: amazon







I'm sorry, my hair is HOW long now? Dang. I guess I really need that haircut!

No more mondays


No more Mondays at work!  Only 5 1/2 days left of school! Woo! I don't know who looks forward to summer more, teachers, or students.

Here is an outfit from the weekend, and today:

I keep forgetting to change my white balance for the conditions. Terrible. Ack.

Shorts: Old Navy
Top: NY and Co





Skirt: ?
Top: Banana Republic Outlet

Seriously, I am looking pale today. I blame the white balance. Doot de doo. Maybe I'm hyper critical since I also started using the Jergens gradual tan lotion? I've used it maybe 4 times on my legs and once on my arms. And I know I got some on the tops of my shoulders, so why are they so blindingly white? Yikes.


Also, I'm thinking about getting a haircut. It just kinda hangs there. Especially if I straighten it, it's pretty darn blah. I think I need layers like this: 



Thoughts?
