Elegance

Spring is fast approaching and with wedding season is right around the corner, I imagine myself in this lovely outfit. A sleeveless dress with a sweetheart neckline in a blush pink, cream heels, a nude, ruffled clutch, pearl drop earrings, opal ring and a low side bun. Lovely and gorgeous, what more could I ask for?

Sandals

After oogling these Sam Edelman T-strapped, cheetah print sandals since last summer, my wonderful husband bought them for me as part of my Valentine's day gift. For me, they ran a half size small so I went from a size 5.5 to a 6. They are extremely comfortable and can be worn with a number of outfits. From a pair of blue jean, shorts, or leggings to a summer dress, or skirt, these sandals would look great with any color or any outfit. I definitely be reaching for them this summer!

Here's a close up of the cheetah pattern:

What are some pieces you guys will be reaching for this summer?

TOMS!

From my previous post, you guys know how much I love my TOMS wedges. It all started last summer when I bought my first pair of Ash Canvas TOMS. They were so comfortable and adorable to wear with any outfit!

I loved these TOMS so much that a few months later, I headed out for another pair. This time, I bought a pink fabric TOMS that was so soft and comfortable to walk in. It adds a subtle pop of color to a simple outfit.

As I was killing some time while waiting for my sister to finish her physical therapy last week, I dropped by Zumiez to take a look at their TOMS collection. Look what I found:

How adorable are these TOMS? It has fun and vibrant colors, perfect for the spring and summer! The soles are red, the background is white and it's splashed with flowers in several shades. Here are a few more pictures to give you guys an idea how awesome these TOMS are!

They were having a buy one get one half off of a pair of shoe that is currently on sale so I picked up a pair for my husband.

Chris has been reluctant about wearing TOMS before, but I bought a denim pair for him last summer and he was hooked. The fabric of these TOMS seem pretty hardy and they have a unique chic look to them. Plus, they were only $20, can't beat that!

Not only are TOMS comfortable, they are also a great foundation. For every pair purchased, one pair is donated to a child in need. They give to children all over the world and have donated over 2 million pairs to date. So try a pair of TOMS! They're adorable, cozy and your purchase will go to an awesome cause!

Summer Fun Outfit

On this lazy Sunday, Chris and I caught an early movie and ran some errands. As we strolled outside, I couldn't help but turn my face towards that gorgeous, warm sun! My head then started churning about all the summer outfits I'm ready to pull out of my closet. When I think of summer, I think of flowy dresses, strappy sandals, messy ponytails, petite crossbody bags and simple accessories. Hence, this outfit was born. A floral dress with flutter sleeves and accents of a red like this purse, sandals and lipstick. Then fun jewelry such as this kissing necklace and multi-bangles. This outfits screams summer doesn't it?

Forever 21

After dropping my sister off for physical therapy, I had an hour to kill. Since the mall was just down the street, I decided stop in for a quick walk through. As I roamed the jewelry section at Forever 21, I pick up two really cute items. The first accessory was a set of three bow earrings. I have been loving studs lately and these are just the perfect size. They are cute and petite, without being gaudy. Rimmed with gold, one has sparkles, one is black, and the other is a solid gold color.

I think they could be worn all year round and would go well with a variety of outfits, from shorts and a t-shirt in the summer to a pencil skirt and buttoned dress shirt for work. To make these even more of an awesome find, they were only $4.50!

For the last few years, I have been searching for a mirror compact to carry around in my purse. As I made my way to the checkout counter, I found this gorgeous compact. They came in several designs, leopard, cheetah, floral, and hearts. I picked a silver compact with a decorative side that is white with a floral print.

Inside are two nice sized, rounded mirrors and when closed, it is ultrathin. Similar to the bow earrings, this was also a great find at only $2.80!

These are two of my finds lately, what are some you guys have found?
