Week of OOTD's

It's been one of those crazy weeks I tell ya! Somehow it seems I'm sick all over again in some form (sinus headache, pressure, sore throat, etc) and to make life even more exciting my brand new computer all of a sudden quit working a few days ago so I didn't have one for a few days. I exchanged it for a brand new one yesterday though so now I'm back up and running. I have lots of pictures to share from what I wore over the past week...but first, I have to share that I got a fun surprise in the mail today! I had read on a few blogs that J Crew was mailing out some of their red cards to some customers...why this is always such a random selection of who gets their coupons I'll never know. I have never once gotten a coupon in their monthly catalogs so when I read about the red card I figured I wouldn't get one of those either. To my surprise I opened my mailbox this morning and there it was! It's a 25% off coupon good for as many purchases as you like IN-STORE only from now until October 11th. My nearest J Crew is about 30 minutes away so hopefully I'll be able to make it down before it expires (ok, lets be honest..I'll make time to go!)

Now onto some pictures....starting with last Friday night when I had dinner with some girlfriends:



Details:
-Cardigan-J Crew (Summer sale item)
-Tank-J Crew Outlet
-Skinny Jeans-American Eagle
-Sandals-Loft
-Necklace-Loft
-Earrings-Nordstrom
-Ring-Forever 21

Saturday--Side note: I ran up to J Crew Outlet and picked up the Eden Blazer and a top both on sale. After seeing the Factory items online at J Crew I fell in love with the blazer all over again.



I had seen it in the store previously but at a price that I wasn't willing to pay knowing that at some point it would hit a sale. I had read on Debye's blog that she had stopped by the factory store and found some prices on some items to be even cheaper than online so I figured I'd see if the store near my house still had the blazer in my size and color I wanted...and they did! Can't wait to wear it!! If you're wanting to get one too, know that it runs a little big. I sized down one size...the sleeves were way too long in my regular size and the fit was overall a little too baggy but the next size down worked perfectly. After my little trip to J Crew, I hung out at home the rest of the day with the fam...nice and relaxing. Here's what I wore:



Details:
-Shirt-J Crew Outlet
-Wonder Tee-Down East Basics
-Matchstick Jeans-J Crew Outlet
-Presta Wedge Sandals-Target
-Necklace-Lisa Leonard Designs
-Earrings-Target
-Bracelet watch-gift from my inlaws

Sunday--church! I went old school for this outfit--everything at least three years old (except accessories):



Details:
-Top-Express
-Skirt-Kohl's
-Jessica Simpson Heels-Bakers
-Necklace-Express
-Earrings-Target
-Bracelet-J Crew (Summer sale item)

Monday--Back to the grind...school, trip to Old Navy, homework...FUN! I stopped in at Old Navy to pick up a tank I had seen in another store (in the wrong size) and came across a ton of new jewelry while I was there that was pretty darn cute! I'm not usually a total fan of Old Navy jewelry, but this stuff was really fun. I can't wait to wear the necklace I got...super gorgeous rich colors...I'm not seeing any of it online yet so check in your store to grab them up while you can. I'm seriously contemplating going back for the other colorway in the necklace I got. So onto what I wore:



Details:
-Molded and Melded Tee-my good friend Elise gave this to me for my birthday knowing I've been waiting and waiting for it to go on sale. You rock girl!!
-Cardigan-Gap
-Jean Skirt-Old Navy (Super OLD)
-Presta Wedge Sandals-Target
-Necklace-Banana Republic Outlet ($10)
-Earrings/Bracelet-Old Navy

Tuesday--It was chilly on Tuesday so I dressed a little warmer...when, oh when is it gonna turn cold for good? I'm so ready! I worked in my son's class on Tuesday so I was all about wearing flats as working with first graders for an hour is literally a workout in itself...I felt like being comfortable.



Details:
-Field Game cardigan-Anthropologie
-Ruffle Front top-J Crew
-Always Skinny Jeans-Gap
-Brown Flats-Target
-Necklace-Loft (Summer purchase)
-Ring-Old Navy (new purchase)
-Earrings and Bangles-Nordstrom

Wednesday--I literally ran all over the place running errands yesterday...it was a little cold in the morning again so I threw on a cardigan with the new tank I picked up from Old Navy on Monday. I love this tank because it reminds me of the Victoria Ruffled Tissue Cami from J Crew at a much lower price--$12 on sale this week. I picked one up in black too. I'm not seeing them online yet so check in stores if you're interested. Here it is:



Details:
-Tank-Old Navy (it looks a little see through in the picture but in person I don't think it's that bad)
-Cardigan-J Crew (Summer purchase)
-Cropped Skinny Jeans-Gap
-Wedge Sandals-Old Navy
-Earrings-Anthropologie
-Necklace-Fossil
-Bracelet Watch-gift from my in-laws
-Ring-Forever 21

And finally..TODAY! I woke up not feeling too great so I just wanted to be comfortable. I have worn this dress before on the blog and tried to think of a way to change it up but at 7:20am when I was getting dressed I wasn't feeling too creative so all I did differently was add a cardigan and change up the sandals. For some reason the dress looks like it has an ombre effect towards the bottom in this picture but it doesn't...just some bad lighting!



Details:
-Maxi Dress-Old Navy
-Wonder Tee-Down East Basics
-Madden Girl Sandals-DSW
-Ring-Forever 21
-Necklace-Lisa Leonard Designs
-Bracelets-Gap Outlet
-Earrings-Target

So there you have it...a week of outfits. Hopefully now that I have a working computer I won't fall so behind again! We do have company coming to visit tonight through the weekend though so we'll see how on top of it I stay. My in-laws are coming to see us for a few days so that should be fun. My boys are very excited to get them all to themselves. My husband and I and the two of them are headed to the Melting Pot tomorrow night for a little date night out so I'm looking forward to that....I love that place! What to wear??? =)

Have a great night...anyone else as excited about Grey's coming back tonight as I am??? Other shows I'm recording on my DVR tonight include the new one called "My Generation", Office, Parks and Recreation, Project Runway, etc...ahhh...Thursday night "Must See TV" is back!!! =)
