September 22 - 28

Sunday: Work Day

Sunday's at my work place is really 'Where Whatever You Want Day' since there is only a couple of us in the office its really doesn't matter what you wear. I like to think I still look presentable but sometimes I come home and I'm like did you really just wear that to work ?

Sweater: H&M

Bottoms: Rag & Bone - found here

Purse: Longchamp

Flats: Zara 

Necklace: Costa Blanca (found in stores)

Monday: School Day

I like Mondays, because unlike the weekends where I have to get up at 5:30am my Monday lecture isn't till late in the afternoon so I get to sleep in and take my time getting ready to school.

Blazer: Zara

Top: Aritzia

Jeans: Rag and Bone - found here

Flats: Sam Edelman

Tuesday: Work Day

My office is a more relaxed business casual. I usually can get away with anything that isn't blue jeans.

Sweater: Gap

Pants: JCREW Factory - found here

Purse: Michael Kors - found here

Loafers: Target

Necklace: Nordstrom

Wednesday: Work & School Day

I hate Wednesdays. I work 6am-3pm then travel an hour to campus and have class from 4:30pm-8:20pm. Its the absolute worst but on the bright side only 9 Wednesdays of torture left. Therefore I try to dress as comfortable as I can.

Blazer: Forever 21

Top: Aritzia

Jeans: Rag and Bone - found here

Loafers: Target

Necklace: Forever 21

Thursday: School Day

Like Monday my Thursday class is also in the late afternoon so I get to sleep in and take my time in the Mornings. Its a wonderful thing.

Friday
This week Friday was a complete write off day for me. I spent the majority on the day sleeping and never even changed out of my pjs. You don't even I have to tell me, I am the life of the party.

Saturday: Work Day

Again the weekends are pretty casual at my work.

Sweater: Aritzia - Found Here

Again Thanks for Stop By,

What I Bought in September

I love hauls.

It is my guilty pleasure I will watch a ton of haul videos and then go on to read tons of haul blog post. It’s an obsession.

 I am not sure why I like them so much, but I think it’s because I love to shop and hunt for deals myself so therefore I love to know what other people are buying and what kind of deals they scored.

Moving on to what this post is really about...
Although I didn’t buy anything this month (I was on a No-Buy) I did received two gorgeous necklaces that I absolutely adore and had to share.

Both Statement Necklaces came form Costa Blanca

1. Pink, Mint and Silver all over.

Originally $14.50, On Sale for $10.50, Was Purchased for $8.70

(they had a special sale the day we got it)

I was shocked to see this necklace at Costa Blanca and instantly thought of the Bauble Bar necklace that recently re-launched with MissGlamorazzi special Bartender Collection (Im obsessed with the collection btw).
The Rose Dandelion Bib retails currently retails for $38 USD & is currently backordered till November! So if you are looking for a very similar dupe you can find it at Costa Blanca for less than or around $10.

Although there are differences between the two necklaces I  still adore the one I got over the Bauble Bar one (but that doesn't mean I won't scoop that one up as well).

The Costa Blanca one is silver based with hints of mint green and pink and the Bauble Bar Rose Dandelion Necklace is gold based and pink.  

2. Pink and Gold with a bit of Sparkle

After perusing around Bauble Bar website I notice that this necklace is very similar to their Ruby Rainbow Collar, although its not an exact dupe I think it comes really close

Here's a side by side comparison:

Originally $12.50, Was Purchased for $7.50

I just loved this one, I find it so dainty and pretty and makes me feel really girly when I wear it.

I posted this up early because I know I will not be doing anymore shopping until October and wanted to share the deal with you guys incase you were looking at either of these necklaces. 

I'll try and make my photos better I swear !

Happy Shopping !

Goodbye Summer, Hello Fall - Current Fall Wants

Happy 1^st Official Day of Fall Everyone ! 

Summer is gone and fall has finally arrived. I thought what better way to kick off fall with a ‘Fall Want’s’ post. Being on a no-buy this September has me constantly reevaluating and scaling down what I want to get for this fall.  Although there's a growing list of things I want, the things that I've deemed absolutely necessary are a Cargo Jacket, Tuxedo Pants and Booties.

1. A Beige Cargo Jacket 

I have one currently from H&M (you may have seen it in here) but it's just too thin. It makes a great summer and spring jacket but in reality I only find it to be a bit thicker then a dress shirt and only slight warmer than a light cardigan. 

Left to Right

a.     ZARA – Parka with Hoodand Pockets: $99.90

b.     ASOS - Storm and MarieShort Cargo Jacket: $107.00

c.      BCBG – Asymmetrical ZipBelted Anorak: $300.00

2. The Tuxedo Pants or Leather Stripe Legging 

Leather details are still big this season and I have fell in love with this trend. I had an opportunity to snatch up a pair last season but I deemed that I had too many black pants at the time. I still have too many black pants this year but I will not turn the chance down again 

a.   G by Guess - NatalieFaux-Leather-Stripe Leggings: $25.00
b. Splendid –Tuxedo Legging: $98.00
c. JCREW – Pixie Pant in Leather Tuxedo Stripe: $168.00

3. The Taupe Taupe Bootie 

In the past I could never bring my self to get a pair I have always been the riding boot kind of girl but have seen booties all over the place this year has made obsessed with finding my own perfect pair. I still on the hunt but these are the ones I have my eye on. 

Left to Right

a.     6PM – Kelsi DaggerTwinkle: $29.99

b.     Report – FadiaTriple-Buckle Bootie: $49.00

c.      Little Burgundy – HibouGwenola: $119.98

There you have it my current top 3 wants for fall. Ill do more of these post later on in the season (I already have an idea for the second edition). I really enjoyed doing this post - It was like doing shopping research.

Thanks for Stopping by.
