Spring Cleaning

I mentioned that I went to Target on Friday and went a bit out of control. There were tons of things that I liked and so I took several large bag-loads home. I think I scared the register girl a bit.

But mainly I just don't like to try things on in the store. That and I get stuff home and change my mind about them. That's why I never take the tags off right away. Sometimes I need to look at them for a while before I really commit to keeping them.

At the end of the day I'm taking back a dress, 8 shirts, a bunch of jewelry and two skirts. But what I ended up keeping were these lovely summery items.



I'm not a huge dress wearer so I'm trying to find more dresses that I feel comfortable in. I like these alot, especially the blue and off-white print dress. The 3/4-sleeve cardigans are right up my semi-preppy alley and the two light t-shirty tops will be good basics too. And I love the fun jewelry. I've already worn the pink bubble necklace. The elephant charm necklace has a retro/JCrew sense too it. And the green chain one is actually all made of beads, so that's pretty cool.

If you click on the image it will take you to Polyvore where you can link to each of the items.

You can kind of tell where my colors are going for Summer: white, black, grass green, teal/aqua over khaki, white and black. Accent colors of pink, yellow and orange/coral.

I got a few headbands and footless sheer tights which are both super cute. More pics to follow. Once this crazy weather warms up a bit.

Ensemble du Jour

The Outfit
I so needed to wear some bright cheery colors, so I'm wearing a simple black pencil skirt from Target, a bright blue/green/aqua argyle sweater and my favorite Champagne necklace.



Here's a close-up of the top.




I haven't worn this necklace in a while now... at least a week or two. What the heck? I love it!



The Focal Point
I just realized that I barely wear these Louboutin Helmut heel which is a shame because they are just gorgeous with the most amazing electric blue satin.



I think the shape on these is one of the most elegant ever.



They actually make this shoe with crystals in a burst along the side. I've seen it in black and navy and a gorgeous creme. They're called Helmoon and I'd love love love to find a pair in my size.



Yummy!



Unlike most Louboutins, this style runs big. These are a 35.5 and are kind of loose on me. I'm sure it will be next to impossible to track down a 35 in any color.

I have tomorrow off, so today is my Friday. Thank goodness. It's been a tiring week. I can't wait to do a bunch of errands and crafty ideas tomorrow.
