Do you Do This: Call Store before Shopping?
I'm looking for a skirt that I saw online to wear this weekend. So instead of driving to the store, to later find that they don't have it, I typically like to call the store and ask an associate if they can help me out and see if it's there. I actually just did this a few seconds ago..jeje and I'm glad I did because they didn't have it. I was able to find another store that did. Is it just me....or do you do this as well? Or do you just rather go to the store?
Accessorizing
Black ruffle bottom dress: Tiana B. Lavender sparkle top: INC. Sweater: It’s Our Time. Booties: Dollhouse. Belt: INC (match to a different top). Tights: ??
Okay, so here’s the scoop on me and jewelry accessories â€" I LOVE jewelry. I love to shop for it, I love to buy it, I love to simply look at it and how pretty it is… However, when it comes to wearing jewelry, I tend to be a minimalist. It just bugs me, and I often feel like it’s restricting, bulky / in the way, and overkill.
Starting this weekend â€" I plan to do a full week of forcing myself to accessorize with jewelry, but for today, I accessorized how I normally do â€" with a belt, ruffles, tights, a little sparkle, and a fun shoe.

Style&co Fiesty Hobo Handbag
Check out this cute handbag one of my friends bought yesterday. She got it on sale at Macy's. It's from Style&co, which I must admit I didn't even know they sold handbags....I thought they just sold clothes. I love that it has a shoulder strap and a removable crossbody strap....so you kinda get two purses for the price of one. It's on sale for $45.99 (originally $78) and also comes in purple.
Where to Buy:
p.s. I took the pictures with my phone...so they aren't that great, but you can check out more pictures by clicking on the link.
