Spring/Summer Sneakers

Links to Shop:   ONE.   TWO.   THREE.   FOUR.   FIVE.   SIX.   SEVEN.   EIGHT.

I am a TOTAL sneakers/trainers/tennis shoes/runners (is there any other way to say it?!) girl.  On my days off work, you will most likely find me in some kind of tennis shoe.  With that said, I have been lusting over the pairs above for awhile now and have decided that I must have them all.  Now, I just have to decide which bank to rob.  One thing I will say, the price of the New Balance shoe (#6) is considerably less at Journey's as opposed to Topshop's.  Topshop has the outrageous price of $130! Am I missing something here?

P.S. I've been deliberating over which style of "wedge sneaker" that I should own... so I caved and bought these.  Everything is good in the world now!  ;)

Tube Skirts


Links to Shop:

I am obsessed (and I mean OBSESSED) with Tube Skirts.  I am bigger on my top half than my bottom, so pencil/tube skirts seem to be most flattering for my shape.  I found these skirts from Topshop and fell in love.  I have tube skirts in literally every color but these have the coolest patterns that I am unable to find anywhere else.  I feel like $45 is reasonable price for something so unique.  

I'll definitely be filling up my shopping cart at Topshop within the next couple of days. ;)

Current LuLu's Top Pick Shoes


 Links to Shop:

I check the "New Arrivals" at LuLu's.com almost daily.  Above are the four pairs of shoes that I am currently drooling over for the upcoming warm seasons.  Unfortunately, the prices make me cringe though....

I did end up purchasing the Chinese Laundry Gold Plated Sandals and let me tell you... They are PHENOM.  The huge downside was that I bought them in my size and they ended up being a full size too big.  I immediately called to have them exchanged and unfortunately they had already sold out in my size.  I was informed that these were very popular and would mostly be restocked.  However, I did not want to wait so I decided to sell them to my sister who just so happened to fit in them perfectly.  Sigh.  We just can't have everything.

Oh well.  Maybe I'll have better luck in the Atiko Bryn wedges. ;)

P.S.  The Atiko Bryn wedges do come in a fab Peppermint color as well.

Spring Blouse - Save or Splurge?

Links to Shop:
Dolce Vita Blouse                                                  Aliya Blouse


Two of one of my favorite shops (Urban Outfitters and Alloy) are carrying essentially the same blouse.  The biggest difference is the price so I figured this was worth mentioning.  I'm a huge fan of the crochet/lace look for spring but I definitely would have to go the modest route with a white tank top underneath.  

Would you try this trend?
