necklaces: the limited, forever21

Pants are more fun to wear with a pattern. I got this pair while in Gainesville about a month ago when Ann Taylor decided to have 50% extra off already reduced priced items (score!). I'd love to layer them up with cute boots and a thick and chunky cream cable knit sweater when it starts getting chilly, but they're linen, which technically isn't supposed to be worn in the winter.. Since when do I follow the rules?

hat: old navy

shoes: target

scarf: h&m

necklaces: tj maxx, pottery barn

I'm in sale finds from head to toe today. Shh don't tell anyone.. ;) The most expensive item on me is the Free People dress. Only $20! Can't beat that. I love the angled hem and neutral, gray-ish color.  It's a clingy little number, so the sheer sleeveless blouse makes it a little more modest for day. I'm also sporting my favorite Pottery Barn lobster cracker turned necklace (last seen HERE).

studded belts: gap

bracelets: kohls, vintage

This is a great summer to fall transitional outfit, wouldn't you say? Fall is my favorite season, mostly because of the clothes. And boots. I'm a huge fan of boots. I got this pair last year from Zara for only 30 bucks! They're accessorized here with belts from Gap I got for $6 each while in New York last week. The skirt was another steal for $5. I'm just full of good buys lately! So savvy I am.

dress: free people ($50, originally $200)

oversized flower: the limited

I found this wonderful Free People crochet knit dress at TJ Maxx this week. I love its delicateness and mermaid shape. Underneath I have on high-waisted shorts from Urban Outfitters and a Rodarte for Target suit top. Beach cover-up by day, flirty and fun dress by night!

the wow

shirt: seneca rising for pacsun (sale $15)

skirt: h&m ($5)

lipstain: sephora ($19)

clutch by 40 winkz

A bright lip and a fun clutch; simple accessories that pack a lot of punch. The clutch is custom-made by my oh so talented friend from work, Cisi. She really wowed me with this one. Great quality, perfect size, totally me! It also has nice little zippers (love when clutches have zippers!) so nothing falls out. She does purses, diaper bags, and other special orders, too. Check it all out HERE.

Lipstains are my favorite right now, especially when I'm dressed a little plain and need a dash of wow. The one I'm wearing is Kat Von D Everlasting Love Liquid Lipstick in Backstage Bambi. It's hot. It's pink. It's wow.

And that rhyming in the first sentence.. didn't even try :)

Clearance rack finds, of course. More to come!

chic + gym

sofia fanego by gianluca fontana for io donna, march 2012

Love the hint of sport; pockets, hooded vests, shiny activewear fabrics, running short hemline on that long skirt
