Things I Loved this Week: 11/08/10 - 11/12/10

1. J.Crew Spring 2011....floor length sequin maxi

J. Crew Spring Ready to Wear style.com

Sequins? YES. Maxi Skirt? YES PLEASE! Two of my favorite things at the moment all rolled into one? TO DIE FOR! I want this skirt RIGHT NOW. ON ME! PLEASE! This whole outfit is just lovely and goes back to my steal the look for less post from Wednesday with Jayma Mayes and her sequin skirt and button down top (you can read it here). This is so beautiful and so elegant and I love the shirt and the belt for this whole look.

2. Cougar Shoes




Okay so I got these in the mail last Friday and didn't do my post till Sunday but I still love them. I also didn't really get to wear them till Monday so technically this still fits in. You can read my whole Product Review on these boots here.

3. Jayma May's Sequin Skirt and Button Down Top

This look is totally like J. Crew's Spring 2011. I did a post on how to steal her look for less on Wednesday (which you can read here) after I did this post I noticed that a lot of people are catching on to the sequin casual look. I saw this girl yesterday at the J. Crew Sample Sale on looking fantastic with a sequin mini skirt and a simple button down top. It's really great to see an outfit like this out on the streets on a normal person (someone who isn't a celebratity and doesn't have their own stylist).

4. American Apparel Chiffron Double- Layered Full Length Skirt

Okay so I went to American Apparel this week with the purpose of buying black leggings, which I did indeed end up buying, but I also tried on this skirt....Which now I'm in total love with. Of course it's a maxi skirt which in return means I love it. But I also love the sheerness to it and the elestic waist. I had talked myself OUT of buying this skirt. It's def. going on my Christmas list.


I also want to take this time to thank Alena from C'est Freak, Le Chic. She had hosted a giveway back in the beginning of October which I had TOTALLY forgot I had entered...but I got a lovely email from her yesterday notifying me that I had won her contest!! What a great way to have had ended my Thursday! I won these really beautiful Rose Pendant necklace from an online jewellery boutique, Lottie Blyth.


Aren't they just way to adorable! I never win anything! I'm so excited to recieve my beautiful necklace. Thank you again Alena! Go check out her blog NOW C'est Freak, Le Chic!

Cheap Vs. Steep: American Apparel VS. Victoria Secrets

3. Halter one-piece monokini
$110 - victoriassecret.com


I'm getting more and more excited for Memorial Day Weekend. I planned a trip to Lake George for my boyfriend and I (it's his graduation present from me). I have a bunch of bikinis two I already know I plan on taking with me. One is my newly bought H&M bathing suit:

H&M

The bottom is the same color as the top. And the other bathing suit is an older black and white hawaiian print bathing suit (halter top and just a regular bikini bottom). But lately I've been obessed with wanting to buy a sexy one piece. I fell in love with Victoria Secrets one piece. I think it's super sexy but $110 for a bathing suit is a lot of money. I do like the American Apparel mostly because of it's price. I've been looking online for cheaper one pieces more like the Victoria Secrets bathing suit. I even went to the VS down on 34th street and couldn't even find it in stores. I thought maybe if I were to have seen it and tried it on I would have either hated or at least get a better understanding to as of why this bathing suit cost so much. Now I'm playing with the idea of getting the American Apparel swimsuit. Either way I will have to try it on.
Which one do you like more?
