Easy Breezy Coral Girl

I tempted the fates yesterday and went to Target  but guess what, I didn't even buy a nailpolish for myself.  However there are some J Crew sale items that are really testing my resolve.....

Speaking of which, I forgot to mention my crystal blossom drop earrings that were part of my J Crew order that arrived yedterday (on sale for $29.99). It's hard to see in the picture but for me they are perfect. Not too big, dangle just a little and they will go with almost everything.......just how I like 'em! Here is what I wore today and let me just say, I cleaned my microwave this morning and the mess behind me is from my teenager making lunch.....how does he do it??? And Cooper is becoming quite the fan of taking OOTD pics, I try to keep him out but those eyes get me every time, I am a sucker.

And here is the Polyvore which is totally accurate except for the hair which ended up in a lazy day bun!

Stay strong Sister!!!
Although, personal care items should not count in this shopping ban...at least it doesn't count in mine!
I am still going strong, deleting all email blasts from the usual suspects...staying in my office at break time...and then the company announced yesterday that associates can get an additional 15% on top of their discount on all new denim styles!!!!
Arggggghhhh!
Talk about torment and torture!!!

Good job on the Target trip- I can never get out of there without something for myself. I love the outfit today as well!

Making it out of Target without buying is a MAJOR accomplishment - congrats! But your fabulous outfit probably helped - when you look that great, you don't really need anything else, do you?

I love this! The coral is so pretty on you! Way to stay strong at Target too ;)

Bellamama said...

Nice job staying strong! You look fantastic as always and how cute is Cooper?!!! How do you store your cardis and keep them organized?? Any tips?

Dea said...

What a beautiful outfit, and so cheerful for the summer!

Jessica said...

You look so pretty! I love how you wear skirts everyday, you look so polished and chic!

Eleanor-I do allow myself personal care items (I placed a clinique order) but I am not a big polish person so I knew I was just trying to buy myself anything! Agghhh, the additional 15% employee discount, how tempting is that??

Bellamama-I store my cardis all wrong but I think it is a great topic so I will probably do a post about it this week.

Thanks for all your support during my shopping ban, it helps me stay strong!!

If you can get thru Target, you're doing great. Keep going!

Super cute! I love the printed flower tee with the breezy white skirt and sandals. :) And your model helper, hehe.

Love your tee. Does it fit TTS or does it run small. I found some on eBay...for about $60. Is that a good price? Seems high but I don't remember what they retailed for...

Love your blog. I read it every day!

Jenni said...

You're rocking the ban...so good!!! And can I just say you look so cute in this outfit!!! Total epitome of casual chic...perfect for summer!

Debye said...

Lizzy T- I bought this tee in my true size but I could have sized down for a more fitted look. It originally retailed for $78 then it went on sale for $68 and then I think it made it through another cut. And thanks for the sweet words ;)

Jenni-thanks!

So cute!! I love that top!! It looks so cute on you!

Thanks Debye--it would be helpful if you could do a post dedicated to storing cardigans. Do you wear a medium in Jcrew tees as well? I love this tee!
