Let's Go Shopping: Furbish

Furbish



Furbish is this adorable site with all kinds of goodies for home and to wear. Another blogger Instagrammed this ridiculously fun tassel on her purse, so I went hunting for it. OMG you guys, so much cute stuff in a wide range of prices! Here are some of my faves (can you tell I have wedding stuff on the brain today?). Those pink earrings are dead ringers for my lavender/mint Charming Charlie version.

 
*I have not been compensated for these opinions, but if Furbish would like to, hollaaaa!

Gingham Bread Cookies

Here's an easy look. I'm really loving the little tie of the shirttails lately. This bow is TEENSY since I buttoned it all the way down. It looks "done" like it's tucked in, but not as fussy (plus, I don't have to wear a belt!).

WHEN SKIES ARE GREY: DAY 2

You can't really tell from the pictures, but this skirt is black with white and brown vertical pinstripes. The hoodie is an ooold J. Crew t shirt, and the blouse is my newest addition to my chambray collection. This one (finally!) doesn't have huge pocket flaps and is light as a feather.

LIPSTICK ON YOUR COLLAR: DAY 3

Here is an example of how a crisp white collared blouse can dress just about anything up. Without it, this is basically just a hoodie and jeans. But with it, this was a totally work appropriate outfit.

(The boots weren't my first choice for this, but I was too scared to go for naked feet!)

TRUE COLORS:DAY 3

The day I (well, we) bought these lavender jeans, I spotted a gorgeous lavender and coral necklace at J Crew and knew I wanted to pair the pants with this coral blouse. The blouse is quite over-sized, so I tamed it with this tailored jacket.

The earrings match the pants, but the random introduction of mint makes them less matchy-matchy.

Lazy Lazy Lazy Lazy Lazy Lazy Jane

She wants a drink of water so she waits and waits and waits and waits and waits for it to rain.

I've felt like death warmed over all week. I don't have a fever and the stuff coming out of my nose is clear, so I'm not sick enough to stay home. But: ugh. The solution? Wear undercover pajamas to work.

These "Magic Pants" look a lot like my Jessica Simpson ones, but are made of a much nicer fabric, are a more appropriate length, and the waistband isn't enormous.  I wore these pants all weekend (this outfit almost exactly to dinner on Friday. And to a movie on Saturday...), so I naturally reached for them for comfort on Monday morning.

And remember how I said I sometimes wear this cardigan around the house like a robe? Throw in a t-shirt and some shoes with Nike Air technology, and I might as well be in my jammies. The pink necklace (another gift from Mom!) adds a pop of unexpected color (my sister read somewhere that this pink is the new hot color(?)), and I like how the zigzags around the jewels reference the pattern in the cardigan.

Please excuse my face. I slept for maybe 12 minutes the night before and am full of (clear) mucous.
