Hey guys and dolls- hope y'all had a great weekend and got some much deserved R-n-R.
Guess what I did this weekend?
I went shopping. Hardcore shopping.
There's nothing that gets my pulse racing faster or my adrenaline pumping quite like walking into multiple stores, only to find out that they're having amazing sales. Frankly chicas, it doesn't get any better than that.
Dee (my bestie and Maid of Honor) and I started out our Saturday at Maude Boutique in Fayetteville. One of my fav local writers for Celebrate Magazine, Jena, was working that day and she helped us find some presh pieces. We racked up on tons of great deals and SUCH cute merch. Among my purchases:
Can't wait to wear this with booties and my leather/tweed mini. |
The sexiest black boots I've seen all winter...these were too cute not to buy. |
Red shoes. Enough said ; ) |
Ballerina-inspired top with lace detailing on the back...love. |
Cozy sweater in warm taupe, perfect for these cold winter days! |
Burgundy spat boots in suede...so comfy! |
Next we moved on to a brand new vintage store, Grey Dog. Owned and operated by the fabulous Molly, this airstream trailor was renovated to house all of the adorable vintage pieces a girl could ever need.

After that, we headed downtown to Riff Raff, Cheap Thrills (an awesome consignment store), Something Urban and Private Gallery. My finds here:
Denim shorts from Cheap Thrills...plan to wear with tights and boots- ala the styling below... |
Gold fabulousness from Private Gallery...$4, ladies! |
Total spent all day long? Less than $250.
Czech and mark.
I think what I enjoyed most about the day was not the awe inspiring sales, but the hours spent with my best girl friend laughing, talking and solving the problems of the world : )
Later Saturday night, S treated me to a delish dinner at one of our favorite eateries in Fayetteville, Theo's. Of course we had to take a couple pre-date pics beforehand. Duh.
Wore my cozy sweater from Maude to our date Saturday night... |
We love kissy face pics. |
All in all, it was a fabtastic weekend.
What did y'all do?
*This week should be a busy one, so it's a good thing we have a special guest stopping by tomorrow for "This is Her Story"...designer of Esque clothing, Leslie Pennel. You DON'T want to miss this!
P.S.- Wore my hair in "Chi" waves today...thoughts??
Be blessed, lovelies-
I never would have thought to wear shorts with leggings!!! Oh how I would love to go shopping with you sometime!!!!! Ha!
ReplyDeleteLOVE everything you bought! You have such a great style! I love the Grey Dog vintage store, never seen anything like it before!
ReplyDeleteI'm going to move to Arkansas so that I can go to Maude every day! I loooove that sweater!
ReplyDeleteThose pink peep toe pumps are to die for!!
ReplyDeleteLove your purchases!!!! You are one stylish sista! :)
ReplyDeleteYou guys are TOO cute :)
ReplyDeleteLove your finds. And your hair looks great!
ReplyDeleteI love the curls by the chi! I've been recently trying to curl mine, and it's hard to get the hang of. Since I have shorter hair like you, I have found that it's easier to use a mini straightener and they are only 1-2 inches long and makes awesome curls that last all day!
ReplyDeleteThat Grey Dog vintage store looks amazing!!! What a fun shopping day. I am diggin the "Chi waves" as well!
ReplyDeleteI'm calling Maude up today to do a little long-distance damage :)
ReplyDeleteGreat finds! Can I just say first off - CONGRATS on the engagement. You guys look so happy and cute! Secondly, I am so glad you are getting more "personal" on this blog. I love it. Have a great week.
ReplyDeleteMy goodness you scored, all that for $250. Your weekend sounds great, shopping with a bestie and dinner with the soon to be hubbie.
ReplyDeleteLike your wave hair. Our weekend was fab, played away and of course watched the fashion on the globes.

ReplyDeleteI am dreadfully jealous! More cute things to add to your wardrobe.
ReplyDeleteLove the Chi waves! Somehow I can't get my hair to do that, and it drives me crazy! It looks super cute on you :) And seriously, I'm coming to Arkansas so you can style me. LOVE all of your purchases. You have got some talent, friend! Hope your weekend was wonderful.
ReplyDeleteI love the cute little messy buns you wear your hair in. Any tips?
ReplyDeleteLove the blog! :)
Love the chi waves! :) And um... you got ALL that for under $250?! Hells yes! I love all your finds! Esp all those shoes! Um...the jean shorts and the tights and the blazer... I WANT to wear that! Gorgeous! On that note, I've been on a hunt for a blazer like nobody's business...a cute one to wear with jeans that doesnt look too "suitish..." I always have one piece I search for relentlessly each season til I find it...haha.. :)
