work-wear overload!

Hi Loves!  How's your week going?  Mine has been jam-packed.  I have a couple of great posts coming up for you-- one on Flourish Boutique (and their awesome fashion show!) and another on Accessory Mercado (such an amazing new way to buy accessories!).  But, I wanted to get caught up and share my latest outfits with you.
Enjoy the rest of your week! :)

YOU'RE invited to Flourish Boutique's 5th Birthday Party!

Recently, I was contacted by a fabulous clothing boutique located in Granger, Indiana and invited to attend their 5th birthday party as a VIP guest.  As soon as I saw the name of the boutique, "Flourish", I knew I was going to like it.  And as soon as I clicked on their website, I fell head over heels in LOVE!    

So, really, it took about 30 seconds to decide that OF COURSE I would attend their party!  From the sounds of it, this party will be ROCKIN- a live DJ, tons of beautiful clothes, and a FASHION SHOW-- I've died and gone to heaven! 

That is great, in and of itself, but what's even better is that I want to  INVITE YOU!!

Any of my lovely readers that would like to attend the event is invited to come out and enjoy the incredible bash with me.

last week.

Hi, friends!  How was your week?  Mine was pretty good-- except that I had my wisdom teeth removed yesterday.  So, I'm spending the weekend hanging out with the couch, lots of trashy magazine (thanks, Love!), and mostly the E! and STYLE networks. :)

But, enough about that.  Here's what I wore last week:

H&M sheath dress (in dusty pink), H&M peplum jacket, bubble necklace via eBay, Prabal Gurung for Target Pointy-Toe Pump (in black)

hey, boyfriend!

Maybe you've noticed that I've been wearing my boyfriend jeans like they're going out of style.  And although I am absolutely in love with them, there's a reason why I'm discriminating against my other pants.  

I'm currently undergoing physical therapy to heal a knee that I hurt while exercising a few weeks ago.  Honestly, the worst part of this knee injury is that I can't wear pants that are tight around my knee.  

So, there you have it.  Goodbye, skinny jeans!  Hello, boyfriend jeans.-- for a little while anyway. :)
