This dotted number DID NOT come home with me. Cute, but way too baggy on top and I felt it was incredibly unflattering.
Then..........Camera died. But I was just getting started! Hmmmmmmm.
However, I found the dress that did come home with me on the website.
Love the pockets, the tiny cream polka dots against the black background, and the full lining. It's been very chilly here, but I can't wait to wear this with a skinny belt, cardigan, and my new heels.
While reading Veronika's Blog, I noticed that many girls were recommending Nine West's Ambitious Pumps. I've been searching for platforms, and the hunt continues. I tried several pretty pairs on, But they were all either far too tall for me or out of my price range. But then these caught my eye and I remembered the raves they received on her blog. They aren't platforms, but they are gorgeous and extremely comfortable. I would say the heel height is about three inches which is perfect. I love the classic look and shiny patent is beautiful if done correctly.
So overall, my attempt at taking you with me to shop was a giant fail. I love the idea, so my next attempt will be better. I promise.
Thank you for reading,

We are two people one soul! LOL As we discussed earlier I too had a successful trip to Forever 21 today on my lunch break! You are the only person I actually enjoy shopping with! Cute dress and shoes! Hopefully I'll see u Sunday! ;)
ReplyDeleteKatie: Ditto! I know, when you sent me that text I actually chuckled. I did some Forever 21 shopping too I thought to myself =) I hope to see you soon!
ReplyDeleteCongrats on the Ambitious heels purchase! They are my favorite pair of pumps. I have 'em in suede tan, but I'm tempted to purchase in patent leather black.
ReplyDeleteCan't wait to see your fitting room posts - I enjoy thoes as well :)

These are really gorgeous! I returned mine but never exchanged them for a different size. Can't wait to see them on you. :)
ReplyDeleteNatasha: Thank you, I saw your comment on her blog and I also remembered seeing them on your blog as well. They are so cute! It's funny because macy's was actually having some sort of sale today so I got them for 15% off. I think the total was about 60 after taxes, so I am very happy with my purchase! I hope they last longer than JS shoes lol ;) V's little rant was fun to read. I want to try Cole Haan one day too because it was also recommended a lot.
ReplyDeleteLilly: Ok, so sizing is off right? I normally get a size 6 and a half, but these are 7. The 6 1/2's were way too tight on me! I haven't worn heels in a size 7 in so long. They fit well though.
Sorry about the camera, I am looking forward to seeing more Shop with Me posts from you.:D

Mimi: Thank you =) I wish I had girls to shop with! Sometimes I go with my mom, but that's very rare these days. Her and I have very different tastes lol.
ReplyDeletelove those heels :) i think i actually need to buy a second pair with a lower heel too :) waiting for a sale!
ReplyDeleteV: Thank you, I think you would like them too. The heel is perfect! I think it would be appropriate for any event or occasion. I got mine 15% off during a sale Macy's was having on Thursday.
