FOUND SOME MORE GOOD DEALS I HAD TO SHARE!

Hope everyone had a relaxing Mother's Day! I sure did! Went to brunch with the family and was spoiled with shopping time! I went to Nordstrom and found some super cute sale item's, so naturally I had to share. The first outfit is a nautical themed look I liked. The navy/cream stripe shirt has a VERY sexy back and I just LOVE it, especially at $23.90! I found this red maxi skirt as I was checking out, someone returned it; $39.90~SCORE! It pulled the whole outfit together! Nordstrom.com still has both items available.

Perfect Summer Maxi Skirt! On SALE!!!

Happy Friday! I was able to sneak away for a few hours SOLO yesterday to my HAPPY PLACE. With my favorite drink in hand (Peets iced vanilla latte) and a gorgeous sunny day (84 degrees), I headed to Anthropologie for some returns and shopping.
I was so happy to find the Blanched Crocus Maxi Skirt that I have been lusting after since it came out ON SALE! It is sold out online, but the stores had tons. Originally $148 SALE $79.95. I can not tell you how much I LOVE this skirt! It is lightweight, colorful, well constructed and PERFECT for summer! The only negative is that is runs BIG! I bought a medium and could have went with a small, but it will do. I paired it with a cobalt blue tank I had from Target ($9.00). I also bought a few other goodies, reviews to come. (=
That's all, just had to share the deal... Hope everyone's allergies are not as bad as mine! I am a swollen faced, itchy mess (see pic below!)....

Don't mind the puffy allergy face and swollen eyes )=

STRAP HAPPY~ Strapless dress for $10.80~SCORE!

Happy Thursday! It has been so warm here and summer is quickly approaching. So, strapless dresses are in season! I have NEVER been able to wear strapless dresses before (my lady jugs were TOO big and they didn't make strapless bras in my size) BUT, as of a month ago today, my life has CHANGED! I had a reduction and lift 4 weeks ago and it is the BEST decision I have made! I am still swollen and bruised but the difference I feel and see is dramatic! That being said, I headed out to find a strapless dress that I always wished I could wear.
I headed to Forever 21 (which I honestly never went to, thought it was for teens like Wet Seal) and was overwhelmed and shocked at how many cute, ON-TREND things they had and how CHEAP everything was, like SUPER cheap! Granted the quality is poor and the items won't last forever, it still was a great place to hunt for clothes.
I FOUND THE PERFECT strapless dress! Horizontal stripes (BIG this season), very lightweight cotton, not too short, but not too long and the BEST PART, wait for it... IT WAS $10.80!!!! So naturally I had to buy two colors. They look REALLY cute with a thick belt (Old Navy had the fuchsia belt for $9.99 and I got the sand color belt at Target for $12.99).
If you are MEGA-BUSTY, strapless won't work for you. But, you could wear a short sleeve cardigan over the strapless to conceal your bra straps, great alternative. Just try one on and play with it to see if it works for your body.
I have some other reviews and good deals I have found that I will post soon. Have a great MOTHER'S DAY WEEKEND! Celebrate MOMMA!

Here's how I paired the outfits...
