Recent Buys

With so many sales going on right now it's easy to get sucked down the online shopping rabbit hole, especially when one is bombarded with daily emails offering savory discount codes, it can be quite heady indeed.  I've taken a restrained approach to these post-Xmas/New Year's sales and have picked up some fun pieces this past week.

J.Crew

Cardigans are making a come back in 2015 and I am in desperate need of more substantial knits. I have the standard black and grey throw-on cardis, but they are kind of boring. My winter wardrobe is in desperate need of a statement cardigan, I think this will do the job.

Anthropoloige

These jogger pants aren't necessarily the most practical item for winter, HOWEVER, their loose feel and fun print will work for more casual outings when the temperatures start to peak above freezing. And I'm kind of loving the idea of pairing these pants with the above cardi... we'll have to see how the blues play out.   

Need Supply

Okay these shorts were a bit of a wish-fulfillment purchase--dreaming about the sunny days to come here in 2015 and reminiscing as well about this past, awesome summer.  This was also a case of where the-discount-was-so-great-I-couldn't-resist type of buy. These shorts will be going into storage with my other warm weather clothes upon their arrival, so it'll be like a fun surprise in four months when I unpack my summer pieces!  

I'm still in the market for a new day bag as I discussed in this post, but I think that'll be my big purchase next month. This month I had to buy a new phone after I dropped mine down a flight of stairs, yeah that was an unforeseen expense so unfortunately outfitting buys had to take a back seat.

I PROMISE next week I'll have outfit posts!
