Ladies Lunch

I saw this dress a few weeks ago in Target and I snatched it up immediately. I love the cut, the pattern, the sleeves, everything. Plus, its black and white, and a classic pattern! I know I'll have it for years and with a Target price tag, it was just perfect.



Today was ladies lunch at work, which meant 9 of us went out for delicious sushi! I work with a really amazing group of women. It is so fun hear about everyone's life events (3 of us our newlyweds, 1 is engaged, and 1 is going to have a baby) and compare stories. Being a newlywed I love swapping wedding stories, its amazing how we all had totally different events but so many things are so similar. We all agreed we are VERY glad to have our weddings behind us and our marriages ahead of us!

Good things come to those who wait

 

It took me a long time to get dressed this morning. I finally settled on this outfit and I'm pretty glad I did. I knew I wanted to work around my new shoes and that I didn't want to wear a pencil skirt, which lead to my rocking the maxi, which in turn made me feel like I was in jammies all day, and that's awesome!

 

 So remember all that Massoni nonsense back in August? Well I went to Target on the first day, at noon, and EVERYTHING was gone, except some knee socks. All I had really wanted were the flats, so I went home sad. Well about 3 weeks ago I was looking at the sale shoes in Target and what did I find? The awesome sauce flats I'd wanted, in my size, and on sale!! There were little Target angles looking down on me that day, woowoo!!

Bombs away

So my sister and I did a little Black Friday shopping and on our adventure I found an amazing deal on this sweet bomber jacket! I'd always wanted one but wasn't sure I could justify the expense. Once again Target steered me right, and now I have a sweet bomber jacket. You might also have seen the lovely Kendi rocking this same jacket, and I'll be honest, seeing her work it made me keep my eye out a little more.
My next step is to work it into my whole day out fit, rather than just my outside when its cold jacket.




I once again represented my love of this mustard yellow cardigan and black pencil skirts. This is however a new Black Friday pencil skirt, from the super sale rack, apparently no one else bothered to notice the reason it wouldn't zip down was the zipper was stitched over, all it took was a little ingenuity with my car keys to cut the string, and bam, a sweet super sale skirt for me!



This is one of my many vintage owls, I found him half broken and half off at Buffalo Exchange, a simple trip to Joann's to get him a new eye and some pliers to fix a too wide ring, and he's as good as new and twice as awesome!
