This Week in Fashion

We FINALLY had nice weather the second half of this week, it got up to the 80s! PERFECTION!  Hopefully I will be able to go tightless all the time from now on (I bet I just jinxed it. On Monday I wore my new skirt from Ruche that I bought with a $25 gift card I won from Bonnie's blog so it was only $12.99! I really need more maxi skirts, they are sooo comfy, but since I'm short it's hard to find ones that are the right length for me. [It looks funny in the photos...but looked good in person]

Also, this weekend is Memorial Day weekend in the US so I have Monday off work, partayyy! I'm doing nothing on Monday, but we're having a small family get together on Sunday. Do you have any fun plans for the weekend?
Monday: Skirt: Ruche $13, Tank: Ellen Tracy (TJ Maxx) $12, Sandals: Kohls $12
Tuesday: Jeans: American Eagle $0, Top: Rumors (TJ Maxx) $12, Heels: Crowne Vintage $45
Wednesday: Dress: Calvin Klein (Marhsalls) $30, Sweater: Kohl's gift, Heels: Target $20, Sunglasses: Marc by Marc Jacobs gift card $0, Belt: Kenneth Cole $7, Necklace: c/o Town and Reese
Thursday: Top: c/o Ella Moss, Cargos: American Eagle $0, Wedges: Madden Girl (TJ Maxx) $20

Friday: Dress: Marc by Marc Jacobs (eBay) $27, Sweater: Urban Behavior from roommate, Heels: Michael Kors (DSW) $55

P.S. Is it weird that I get a sick satisfaction out of mean anonymous comments? There has recently been a girl (or guy) leaving anonymous comments and they seriously crack me up. 1. If you hate the blog, why visit and leave comments, and 2. regarding this comment:
Girl has ridiculously expensive purse, whoop-dee-doo
"Move along please, nothing to see here"
Meh.... :/
Do you not read my blog? The whole point is getting things cheap/affordable, it doesn't matter how expensive your clothes are, it's how you wear them. So yea...rant over, but if more keep coming I may have to start sharing them all with you ;)

    Tuesday and wed are handsdown faves! And yes, it's time to ditch the tights!
    I have not missed them for weeks.

    Funny, I've never gotten a snarky comment and it might be because I don't allow anon. I just figure if you are too lazy to log in, then Im not interested in anything you've got to say.

    I love the maxi skirt your snagged - I totally need to get some more of those. And that comment is actually pretty funny. Some people just do really, really weird things with their free time (like commenting, but not reading, blogs). Odd.

    I never noticed before how many AWESUM pairs of shoes you have. You really, really do. I especially like the pinky coral ones...mostly because they're pinky coral, and that's one of my favorite colors. ;)

    Enjoy your long weekend! Meh. My manager still hasn't bothered to put together a work schedule, so I don't even know if I'm working on Sunday or Monday at all. :| So. Not. Pleased.

    Sorry to hear about the comments but you have the right attitude! Just keep doing what you do well. btw every time I come to your blog I get a popup saying 'stack overflow at line 1'. Have no idea whether it's just my computer or why it's happening but hopefully your other followers aren't experiencing the same - Kat

    The Calvin Klein dress is REALLY nice, such a gorgeous shade :D

    And don't even listen to those stupid comments, some people believe in order to be fashionable you have to spend thousands of pounds. I personally don't know any blog that follows that rule...
