I can't believe it's already October! It's the start of my favorite months of the year...bring on the holidays! It's been a while since I mapped out a plan for shopping...the past few months I've picked things up haphazardly, but this month I want to try to stick to more of a plan. Here's what I'm thinking:
1. Riding Boots--I need to update my black and grey pairs of boots so we'll see which way I go first. I need to find some with a circumference of 13"-14" around preferably, to fit around my chicken legs well. It always seems to prove difficult to find a pair with that requirement!
2. Infinity Scarf--I tried this cute scarf on at American Eagle last week and fell in love with it! It's light-medium weight, soft (knit), and not too short or too long. The colors would go with a ton in my closet too. I own scarves, but not one infinity scarf, so this would be a different look than I'm used to.

3. Something Peplum--This is a trend I want to try out, and this cute top from Anthropologie might be the way to go! I am dying to try this one as the color is totally calling out to me! I also love the texture the lace provides...it's so pretty!
4. Pavé Link Bracelet--This bracelet is amazing. It's completely fabulous! I love the chunkiness of it...it's a total statement piece. It's pretty pricey at the moment so I'm holding out for a sale...hoping it's still around by then!
5. Fire & Firmament Necklace--I ended up picking up this necklace on sale last week on the first day of the month. It was on my birthday wish list so when it went down in price I was excited to add it to my collection!

6. Fall Purse--I have loved using my Kate Spade bag my husband got me this summer, but it doesn't have a closure on top so I have found it to be difficult to use when it rains. I had planned on purchasing a new hand bag for fall anyways but the rain is causing it to be a "must" more than a "want", even. I can't let my wallet and iPhone get drenched every time I get out of the car! I am LOVING the pleated Coach bags right now, and think this neutral color would be so perfect for fall, but again, I'm hoping to find something for a little less. I think I'll make my way to the Coach outlet this week and see what they have...perhaps a similar style for much less? Crossing my fingers!
7. Seychelles "Hot & Bothered" Sandal--I've had these sandals on my radar for quite sometime now. They are certainly a fall transition shoe more than anything, since it has an open-toe...I tried to forget about them but I keep coming back to them, thinking they'd be totally cute with wide legged denim. I'll be keeping an out for a sale on these cute shoes!
I'm going to try to mostly stick to my list this month but will allow myself to grab something off the list if it's something I really love. You never know what deal you may find!! A few items on the list are bigger ticket items this month (boots and purse) so my primary focus will be mostly on those.
What are you on the lookout for this month? Are you sticking to a wish list? Do tell!

I love me some riding boots....so classic!
DeleteI need a shopping plan too so that I don't cave too often on things that aren't priority. I have the bracelet on your list and love it.
ReplyDeleteEven when I make a plan I always seem to stray, but the plan does give me a little direction! It makes me think about things more too before I just go and make a purchase. So glad to hear you love the bracelet...it's gorgeous IRL...I'd love to see it hit sale!!
DeleteLove that handbag too but not the price. Hoping you can score something on your trip to the outlets.
ReplyDeleteYa, quite pricey, for sure. We'll see what I can find. I just love the texture of the pleating!
DeleteI need to actually start a clothing plan for the month, it would probably help me not spend as much!
ReplyDeleteWhile it doesn't always help me not spend as much, it certainly helps me focus on the items that are more needs than wants! Good luck!
