Cuff Kick

This is what I purchased today from the big sale. Right now, I'm investing in statement pieces of jewelry. So, I'm still waiting for my other cuff to arrive. But it was between the one above and this one below.
Kabuto Tasseled Cuff
I really love both but can only afford one...the deciding factor was that the first one is brass with 18k gold plated vs the one with tassels --is just brass. Also, I don't want to worry about a tassel falling off, though if it goes more on sale I'll definitely grab it!

Organic Makeup

Talking with my fashionable Anthroholic coworker...I told her how I ordered some new makeup over the weekend. And then asked what she uses...since she has beautiful skin and a polished makeup look. I found out she only uses organic / natural makeup. So, I am going to return the Omorovicza when it arrives (it was a little too pricey) and instead order Vapor makeup - the Stratus Soft Focus Instant Skin Perfector. I plan on switching all my makeup / skincare to organic (over time.)  I'm sold!

Beauty Bite

I always find it interesting to see what other fashion (and anthropologie) bloggers post, regarding their beauty products. Here's some of my beauty products.

For days out in the sun I have been using this and I LOVE it! It really helps with shine control. It's good for combination / oily skin. And it's great for sensitive skin and no breakouts!



I've been using this for only a month (I received a free sample) and really like it. I'm hoping I'll get another free sample since I just ordered 2 items from Bliss. If not, I saw it at Sephora.


After my sunburn from Florida this past April, I ordered this to soothe my skin and my anti-aging conscience.


And I just ordered this tinted moisturizer. It looks good for combination / oily skin. I normally wear a powder, but it's too much for the summer.


And to combat pollution and aging I ordered this one (the reviews are phenomenal.)

I finally wore this dress! And I was very pleased with it - made me feel happy when I was feeling a bit down.

Beautiful Bracelet

Hammer-Split Brass Cuff
I was feeling blue...or since Sunday...and needed something to cheer me up. I found this bracelet on the website but it was sold out and I was able to track it down in a store in CA! Yay!
I'm already feeling better...and it was on sale...a great price!

Isabella Fiore Bag arrived!


I love my new bag! It's the perfect size... for an umbrella, shoes and everything else. I sometimes walk to work in flats then change when I get there. So, I need a work bag that will hold everything.
Also, this is one of those dresses I paid full price for then it dropped dramatically in price. Boo! Oh well. I'm not sure why no else liked it. I instantly loved it...and still do! It's the hem that I love..how it gathers like a pseudo 30s dress.

Anthropologie Mural Maxi dress, similar (and under $100) here and this one (a little pricey, but great colorway) here

The color is perfect! I also like the structure of the bag, the flower details, and canvas.

Anthropologie Lila Dotted Trench

Item imageLila-Dotted Trench
I won this jacket for a good price on eBay this weekend.  Unfortunately, I left my tan Betsy Johnson trench / jacket at the Box,this past Thursday, and they didn't have it. Oh well. It was like 5 years old and I have the same coat in black, which I like it in black better.  But still, I loved that jacket.  It was a good neutral jacket that went with everything. This looks like a good neutral gray and I sized down...according to all the reviews. I always read the reviews when I order off of eBay.

Isabella Fiore bag

This is my new work bag!!
Similar one - slightly different shape here and this one is perfect for night here
I realized that my Kate Spade brown with black bow one is too wintery. My coworker / anthro addict friend, owns the one above and sent me the link today to Rue La La and it's 40% off! She doesn't mind that we will both have the exact same work bag. We work in different departments....
Lately, I'm a copying...! But it's nice to see it on someone and the blue with white will compliment all my summer work outfits. :)

LOVE love these shoes...!

I wore these today (forgot to snap a photo) with a black pencil skirt and top (nothing exciting...well, except for these babies.) Talk about getting compliments on my shoes! 
These are my first pair of Zara shoes and my second Zara purchase ever! I'm late to the game...

Copy Cat

Anthropologie Watercolor Ikat Skirt, similar here (and under $100)
I love this top and skirt combo! It's gorgeous. The top is one size too big on me..since it was sold out in my size...and I even called to see if a store had it, but no luck. I'm going to have the top altered. I think the straps altered at half inch should work out well. What really makes this top and skirt match is the blue and pink color in both the top and skirt. Black with blue shoes are on my list next...! And a blue bracelet.
I'm done shopping for Spring and Summer...but I have this skirt on my list for fall here.

I went home for the weekend and found this in my local Anthro store! And for a sale price it was awesome...thanks Mom... :) 

Similar Orange Anthro shoes here and here
I wore this to work today with a jacket.

Anthropologie Outfit

Wow I really love this top and skirt paired together...! I wouldn't have thought of it.


Anthropologie Bands and Blossoms Peplum Top
Anthropologie Watercolor Ikat Skirt
I couldn't help it, but I just ordered these 2 items. I had these 2 items in my basket and today they sent me an email that my sizes were almost sold out, so of course being weak to Anthro, I went ahead and hit go. I like the diy earrings too! I'll have to find some brilliant blue earrings and a bracelet to complete the look.
