Spring Fever: Part Deux

Some last minute additions to my already-long wish list :) Pretty shoes plus pretty dresses from thelimited.com (their dresses are currently up to 60% off! Check them out!), and beautifully crafted luxury bags at the end :)

Coveting The Limited Sale Items

I LOVE THE LIMITED. They have some of the most amazing sales for really pretty blouses, and actually they HAVE A SALE. Yes! Right NOW! Here are the items that I really, really, really want but can't due to budget constraints (so I'm going to have to live vicariously through you, hehehe! Seriously though, I work in a really casual work environment, so as much as I want to own these I don't really see the need to buy them).

First off, the blouses: (the pictures don't have personal links so I will make a really rough collage)

The dresses:

And the link to their sale items: Beware, credit card!

Enjoy! :)

Forever21 Wish List

F21 is a go-to store for those of us who want to stay within budget and still be on-trend. But does being on a budget mean you have to compromise the quality of what you'll be buying? This is actually one of the reasons why I mostly buy from the clearance section of higher-end stores because at almost the same prices, you get better-quality goods that will last more than your cheaper (i.e. Forever21, Old Navy, H&M, Charlotte Russe, etc.) items ever will. Which is not to say that there is a complete lack of quality goods in those aforementioned stores, it just means that online shopping is a little dubious for those brands (in terms of sizing/fit and the "feel" of the material), and that I highly recommend you personally touch and see and critique every item (especially the seams, you don't want your item to need a repair after just 1 wash!) before handing over your hard-earned dollars. In my recent foray into Forever 21, these are the items that caught my eye and looked like they will last until you grow tired of them.

Faux Ostrich Leather Satchel (eggplant) - $32.80

On-trend ostrich-embossed faux leather, this bag will definitely take you places! It looks sturdy and comparable to the Rebecca Minkoff Ostrich MAC Bomb clutch that I got on sale for $80 (from $330!) at Nordstrom Rack.
