What I Wore Wednesday - Stripedy Stripes

I'm racking my brain to think if I have any sort of a funny story to share with y'all. And I've got nothin'. Not a thing. So, I'll just give you the outfit I wore yesterday.

Shirt: Bealls ($24 marked down to $6!)
Tank: Express
Jeans: Eddie Bauer
Wedges & Earrings: Target
Bangle bracelets: Bealls ($24 marked down to $6!)
Ring: Premier Designs Jewelry




Ok, as I'm sure you noticed, I wear these skinny jeans a lot. Here's the reason: not only are they flattering (love the dark wash!), but they're the only skinny jeans I own that currently fit me, thanks to my Little Missy. As it's coming up on a year since I had the Little Missy, maybe I should just give in and buy a few more pairs of skinny jeans that fit me? Nahhh.... I'll get back into those jeans eventually! In the meantime, I'll just keep coming back to these. =)


Guess what? On Monday, when my guy got home from golfing, I escaped the house sans kiddos for a little while. I had heard that Bealls was having a great Memorial Day sale, so I went over to see if I might be able to score any deals. (I put the finance challenge on hold in honor of Memorial Day.) And I totally did! They were having their Extra 50% off clearance. Everything I got was marked down to 50 or 70% off and THEN an extra 50% off on top. I got loads of cute jewelry, the cute top pictured above and a gorgeous flowery dress that I'll probably wear sometime next week. And as a bonus, I got $10 in Bealls bucks that I get to go spend today. =) Yay!

I'm loving the stripe on stripe combo. But even more fun than that...I didn't know those shoes came in BLACK! I have the nude ones, but am in dire need of more black shoes! I must get some :)

I'd have to say a really, really excellent reason to suspend the finance part of the challenge for the day...but I'm a total enabler, so I may not be the best judge of these things :)

I love the stripes on stripes, too!

Super cute! Say what you must, but I am loving the hair in spite of the grown out cut and roots ;) Black and white looks amazing on you.
