I love this entire outfit so I say heck with the "careful spending" hahaa, okay well maybe you shouldn't listen to me, I'm really just a bad influence. Any how, that necklace is awesome and I love how it really does make a statement and yet it complements your overall outfit too. The jacket is beautiful and I love the little peplum skirt. Your outfits are always well put-together and in all honesty, the amount of money you spent on this outfit and the way it looks make it totally worth it. Cute photos too! Airport, right?

What a beautiful outfit! I love how you paired your shorts with heels. You look so tall in those pics. I know what you meant about spending. I am a sucker when it comes to sales too. This is the time of year when everything goes on sales. Great outfit!

it's such a cute outfit, the necklace totally makes it!

That jacket is so cute! I saw a peplum jacket on another blogger (The(Chloe)Conspiracy) and now I'm obsessed. Great idea to belt it. It gives the jacket a cute little flare at the bottom.

I love everything about this outfit! And I need to search for that jacket - $34??!! Amazing! xoxo

Gorgeous jacket!! Love the cut! And top is wonderful...great for the office and to go out afterwards for happy hour :) A win/win look!

The jacket is so adorable! I tried looking on the website and no peplum jacket. =0( Do you know where one might find one in the United States?

by Hanna on August 3, 2010 at 1:27 PM. #

Wow, those are some fab finds right there! And you put them all together so well, that it looks like you spent at least a $1000! Great eye :) And I am super jealous of your vintage belt...have been looking for a similar one forever. Sigh.

I can justify careful spending like this...especially since the sales will be over so soon :)

You look super cute and sophisticated! Love the whole outfit! I'm not a big fan of shorts but you really pulled it off!

You look absolutely ADORBS in this outfit! I think that sometimes you need to let yourself buy a few new things, if only to keep yourself sane! :)
