Rosette Adorned Tunic

I love shirts that look like Anthropologie but that are really from Target.  Not even a designer Target item.  This is one of those shirts.  I got it on clearance for a few dollars, and I love it.  It even works for work with my black khaki pants.  I switched to leggings after work for grocery shopping.
Tunic: Target
Leggings: Forever 21
Shoes: Cynthia Vincent for Target

See Chloe Shop Giveaway!

See Chloe Shop, a great resource for the best sales online, has a new url and a giveaway to celebrate.  Check it out!

Yes, I'm a week behind in posts.

Outfits from last weekend...
I wore this to the farmer's market.  Easy and perfect for walking around outside in warm weather.
 
Dress: Zac Posen for Target
Belt: American Apparel
Shoes: Target (kids)

I wore this to the pool on Saturday afternoon.  Kind of a hipster look, but it worked.
Shirt: American Apparel
Shorts: American Eagle
Bikini: Victoria's Secret
Shoes: Naturalizer

Sunday I impressed myself with my creativity!  I managed to wear both a skirt and shirt that I hadn't worn in ages.  Without the belt, this look wouldn't work at all.  I'm so glad I discovered belts!
Shirt: Wal-mart
Skirt: Forever 21
Cardigan: LOFT Outlet
Belt: Charlotte Russe
Shoes: Target

Community Supported Agriculture

I signed up for the CSA at work.  I'm so excited about it.  Here's last week's bag's contents.  It had broccolini, snap peas, fava beans, kale, beets, carrots, radishes, and spring onions.  It's so much fun trying to figure out how to cook everything.

Anthropologie Sale!

As Marie from Infinite Whimsy said on twitter, I won (and my budget lost) the sale game.  Today I wore two of my new purchases.  Also, check out those air-dried yesterday bangs.  Yes, those are day-two, no-heat, no-product bangs!  It's a hair miracle.
 
Cardigan: Sparrow Edana from Anthropologie
Tank: Ann Taylor
Pants: H&M
Shoes: Naturalizer

I changed into my new dress to meet my coworkers for margaritas and enchiladas after work today.  El Torito was crazy, but it was fun.  By the way, my coworkers loved this dress.  Aerospace engineers love planes.
 
Dress: Wright dress from Anthropologie
Shoes: Naturalizer
Necklace: bought in Mexico

Another new haircut.

Saturday I wore my new Target (kids) shoes with a favorite easy dress to my weekly trip to the farmer's market.
 
Dress and Earrings: LOFT Outlet
Shoes: Target
Barrette: Forever 21

Sunday I got a haircut.  Jana made my hair really fluffy.  Kind of crazy fluffy.  I promise this is not normal...it took a lot of product and a really long time with a big brush and a hair dryer.  She and I decided to keep my bangs straight again.  She promised she cut them short enough that I wouldn't have to use any heat on them...you'll see in my next post how that worked out.  Also, Jana loved my outfit.  She gave me so many compliments!

Giveaway on Infinite Whimsy

One of the Anthropologie-focused blogs that I read regularly is doing a give-away.  I just love the teacher outfits she puts together...fun yet work appropriate.  I can't wear skirts to work, but I appreciate the modest take on fashion since I have to be careful about how I look at work as well.  Also she's giving away some great stuff!  Infinite Whimsy - Giveaway!
