Weekend F/B purchases
My new eyeglasses: Zagg in Tennesse Whiskey from Warby Parker
And from ulta.com
(bronzer, masques, night lotion, and a free deluxe posie tint sample)
Now I'll wait impatiently to they arrive!
Anyone else want to PIP what they bought this weekend?
Re: Weekend F/B purchases
Mrsheartman which bronzer did you end up getting? I meant to tell you that I really like Benefit's hoola bronzer... no shine or sparkles in it, it's matte but a very nice color - not dirty or muddy. I also really like it with highbeam for a highlighter. Sorry, too late I know! hopefully your stuff works out but if not, that is my rec
I bought this top from zara - still trying to work the peplum - the two tops I bought in December that are peplum look great on me so I am determined to find a couple more - these are much longer than the one from anthro... I ordered them last night:
And the DV archer sandal... bought in turquoise and nude but the turquoise are going back. Here is LC wearing them at coachella:
I went with the Tarte Park Ave Princess in matte. I wanted something with a sheen so I didnt have to do the 2 steps (step 2 being highlighter) but nothing was what I envisioned. I'm hoping the free sample of posietint will be glowy and I can use that layered on the bronzer.
I love that white peplum top. I have a long torso and generally like shirts with longer lengths. I like peplum but its not really me - I can totally see you rocking it though!
I have had my eye on a few DVF sandals - but the price is always a little too steep.
My next purchase will prob be a flat summer sandal. I already returned a pair of Dolce Vitas - I am giving up on that brand - so uncomfortable!
Gap chambray dress:
Anthro maxi:
Nice glasses!
I got some stuff from Ann Taylor Loft:
These jeans make my butt look awesome. I also got a long sleeved v-neck white cardigan from Ann Taylor Loft. My ann taylor total was only about $120!
This Cardigan from Jcrew for $18!! I thought it'd go well with the orange shell

Oh man Mrs. Hark- I'm sorry - I misread and thought the sandles you bought were DVF.
I could tell the ones I bought (actually DV Pansy) were uncomfortable right away. The leather was so STIFF. And they squeaked when I wore them. I tried on the Dixy at Lord and Taylor and those were horribly uncomfortable too!
Also if you remember I said I once had a pair of shoes with an ruched or elastic band aroun the heel - these were dolce vita too.
They are just really uncomfortable to me - but we could have completely different feet. I have wide feet because of bunions, but really skinny ankles. If they are comfy for you now though - they might be good all summer long.
h*bomb - cute stuff. I have been hunting for chambray dresses. I want a pretty "tough" looking one though
Strechad - love the JCrew Cardi!
We did a lot of shopping yesterday but most of it was for the house. I did, however, finally find boat shoes that I loved and bought them.
I got this dress this weekend. My boss gave it to me from the racks as my free dress for the season, love!
Love that! What brand is it?
Thanks! It's the Lilly Pulitzer Felicity Dress:)
I got an email saying this was released! I loveee it!
Nothing too exciting for me...I got a grey and white striped tank from Target to either layer or wear horseback riding.
My shoes came from Zappos Fri. and I love them! They are so comfy.
I'm mostly an intermittent lurker but figured I'd join in on the thread. I bought a lot this weekend but nothing too exciting:
ATL- black, a sea blue color, and coral/white stripped ($12 each)
2 necklaces that I can't find online
$30
$15
In two different stripes $20
BR
This sweater in black and lavender ($20 each)

And a navy/white bag (yes I realize I'm too old to shop here)
Piperlime
I also got my 2 year old a shirt, headband, and 12 pairs of undies from Baby Gap and 2 pairs of sunglasses.
love these glasses!
I ordered three pairs of Cole Haan's Nike Air sandals from Ruelala yesterday.
Adding to my Lululemon addiction.
Got this in pink but it's sold out online right now so couldn't get the pic.
And my wedding stuff came in the mail earlier this week from Kate Spade.
Nothing too exciting.

I love this too!
If you like it buy it quick it is selling quickly! Might slow down this week though because Lillys summer line is being released, I saw the line sheets and it is amazing!
I am PIP challenged but I got some gifts for my mom and MIL for birthdays and Mother's Day. My MIL got a Kindle (joint gift from SIL and us) and my mom got a Vera Bradley bag and a top from Loft.
For myself, I got a few tops from Coldwater Creek of all places...they were the only place I could find nice v-neck tees that weren't paper thin. Plus it was $30 off $100 this weekend. I got a navy, bright green, turquoise and black. I got a coral top from Loft and a blue cotton top with the FF sale. I also got a MAC 15 shadow pro-palette and two neutral shades, Omega and Retrospeck. I'm ordering the Ray-Ban Aviators in Silver/gray lenses from Eddie Bauer because I have a store credit and I'm also getting a pair of flip flops. I'm ordering DH some work pants from LL Bean and maybe a polo from AE. Fun shopping weekend!
Plus 2 button-up's, slim slouch jeans, a striped t, and eyeliner and a charcoal mask from Origins. With DH out of town, I've been online shopping when the kids are in bed :-)
Booo I wish I would have checked Ruelala sooner, I would have snatched up some of those Cole Haans!
Here's what I got:
Maria S by Cole Haan Air Catalina in gold glitter
H&M Glamour Collection dress
Bhldn fine line dress for my bro's wedding
and this vintage dress
MY BMs in their dresses
