I Went Vegan

Not literally!  I could never do it!  No, I am talking about clothes.

I know that I have mentioned numerous times that leather is one of my favorite trends this Fall (have you seen my board on pinterest?) but I have really held back on pulling the trigger on anything.  This is mostly because when it comes to high priced items, I leave them for my hubby to purchase.  That way, I do not feel guilty about buying it and he basks in the triumph of getting me something I LOVE.  

One item that I have been keeping my eye on though is this Tinley Road Vegan Leather Pencil Skirt.  

Not only it is not real leather (which won't piss off my animal-loving friends) but you cannot beat the $79 price tag.  Add a few Gap rewards to the final price and you can just call me "Budget Babe" (this is a name my hubby has NEVER called me).

Rachel Bilson also agrees with me, as she selected this as one of her picks for Fall.  See, great brunette's think alike.

Florals

Floral print are EVERYWHERE this Spring.  From denim to blouses to accessories, you cannot escape the racks of wallpaper (or perhaps Grandmother's tablecloth?) inspired prints.  What are your thoughts?  Are you embracing the trend?

I personally really like it.  Nothing says Spring more than floral prints.  There can obviously be an issue of "too much of a good thing" but when worn appropriately and in moderation, it offers a delicate sweetness to any outfit.

Piperlime Sale = Time To Load Up On Some Accessories!

Lately I have realized how terrible I have been at updating my accessories (earrings, bracelets and necklaces).  It is embarassing.  Piperlime must have noticed that I needed some help because they just kicked off their Fall's Most Wanted Event.  Yes they have shoes  and apparel as a part of the event, but my goal was to hit up the accessories section.  There are some AH-MAZING prices and I was able to pick up a number of items for practically nothing (I must use the word "practically" because my husband would argue that "nothing" would mean free.....and it wasn't free.....but almost!).  And with Piperlime's FREE shipping, it makes the sale even better.  Here are some of my favorites but I HIGHLY recommend checking it out if you are in need of an accessory lift too!
