Hidden Gem

Every once in a while Forever 21 comes out with something I just have to have. Although the quality of their clothing isn't always fabulous, you can find some pretty cute hidden gems in that massive, overwhelming store. Case in point:



I have been searching for a mustard yellow colored skirt ever since I missed the boat on the Refined Cord Skirt from Anthro last year so when I came across this skirt online I jumped on it. I mean, it was a whopping $20 (a little less even if I remember correctly) so what did I have to lose? Turns out it's pretty cute!

So did you score anything on sale this morning at Anthropologie? I may have jumped up a little out my seat in excitement when I saw the Stacked Strap Heels were FINALLY on sale! Needless to say they were in my cart ASAP and they are now on their way to my doorstep. I have been waiting for them to go on sale for forever it feels like! I love hearing what everyone gets, so chime in!

Just as an update for those of you who read regularly....you may remember I was on the hunt for the perfect fall booties to add to my closet. I ended up deciding upon THESE. After receiving them and trying them on in front of the mirror in my room a dozen times, I've decided they just aren't for me. While they are cute, they're a little more rugged than I think I want. They were also very uncomfortable, I'm sorry to say. So after deciding they weren't for me, I started looking all over again. I came across a pair of booties I've looked at several times before and liked, but this time they just really stuck out to me. How cute are THESE?!!



I am in totally in love with these and can't wait to try them on in person!

We're T-minus 9 days until my favorite day of the year...Black Friday! Do I know what I'm shopping for yet? No. But rest assured I will be out there with all the other crazies at midnight (Target now opens at midnight instead of 5am!). My kids need to sit down and write their letters to Santa soon so I know what they want! We're planning on squeezing in a 6am appearance at Anthropologie as well to see if there's any good deals to be had. I'm sure we'll be beat by the end of the day, but many great memories have been made with my girlfriends on Black Fridays in the past...I'm certain this one will be just as fun!

Thanks for reading...hope you have a great day!!

  1. I love that skirt, what a great find! And I also got the stacked strap heels but have never tried them on so we'll see if they work when they get here. Love the new booties you got too, I've had my eye on those as well.
