So remember Tuesday when I said 'I have one go to shoe for Summer, these t-strap studded sandals' well I lied. While I do only have one pair of sandals I go to, I busted out my cowboy-ish boots when it got a bit rainy & cold here this week & snuck in a few outfit shots in between down pours during lunch. This shirt is another Target Clearance find & I love the print on it.
The print is like little swirly green things & it's just too cute. It's sheer so it's really light to wear on hot days & adds to the doesn't need a cardigan part of my wardrobe. I'd also like to discuss all the -outfit blogger- poses I am doing in this post. Hands on hips, legs crossed, one arm doing something different, & looking away from camera are all key poses just so you know :)
These boots hardly get any wear from my closet any more, yet I love them. In college I had a huge thing for these boots & wore them all the time. They really saved me the day I wore this outfit when I took a huge step into a mud puddle. I have a few pairs of shorter length boots too & I need to get some wear out of them!

I really love the Forever21 plus department. I find their jeans fit me so well & last a long time. Any time I have the spare change I buy another pair. I don't like to invest too much in jeans but I want them to last, so F21+ is a great option for this. I think their jeans start at like $14 bucks or something, I love it. Even though jeans are staple in my wardrobe I don't like to spend an arm and a leg. Frugal is (sometimes) my middle name!
I also haven't been finding time to curl my hair, but hopefully that will turn around next week. I think because it's been rainy it hasn't been worth it! So I've pinned my bangs back to keep them out of my face everyday this week! Also, I threw in that last pose there for fun...
What have you been up to this week?
I've been thinking about trying out some jeans from Forever 21's plus section, but I was a little uncertain since they seemed so decently priced. (In my experience, I have to be cautious when jeans seem to be cheap, because it seems like they're MADE cheap in those instances too!) But if you say they last a long time, then I definitely need to give them a whirl!
ReplyDeleteI've noticed that their jeggings (yes, jeggings) wear out quite quickly because of the elastic but for the most part all of my F21+ jeans have lasted! I was wary too, but I thought I'd give them a try & wasn't disappointed :)
Deleteyou look good with straight hair!!!
DeleteThanks miss Tori! It's been hard to love it :) :)
DeleteTarget has the best tops, and they fit so well. I go straight to the clearance rack when I enter the store. Walmart has really nice tops and jeans too. I just recently got a pair a cute knee length shorts for $14. Though their sales aren't as good as Target's.

I've never tried F21 for jeans but i've brought a tonne of dresses and tops from there so i'll have to go hunting there next time. Esp for £14! I get most of my jeans just from the store when we go food shopping - I can go through jeans really quickly so I hate shelling a load out for them.
ReplyDeleteI'm jealous of those boots! I can't wear things like that-my freaking calves are huge (muscular, but huge) and they just don't work out.
ReplyDeleteI've never bought anything from F21 because there isn't a store nearby and I like to try on pants. Maybe I'll just order some though-I keep hearing good things about them.
Love your outfit. :)
um, uber cuteness! Lovin the outfit. Gosh I need some new cute clothes.
ReplyDeleteI *just* discovered the Forever 21 plus sized jeans. I've been having trouble for, like, a year to find a great pair of size 12 jeans. This has been so so tricky, since size 12 is kind of a strange size. When I was a size 10, I found jeans much easier. It seems like manufacturers think size 12 people have super fat knees. I do not have super fat knees, but all of these jeans had really baggy knees! I tried some of the size 31's at Forever 21-- no bueno. BUT!
ReplyDeleteOne day I'm flipping through Forever 21's website and I see that their plus section goes down to size 12 in pants. Whoa, what!? Okay. So I go into our super spectacular, 2 story, brand new local Forever 21 and find the plus section and grab two pair of pants. They both fit exactly how I wanted! Holy crap! And so, I've finally figured it out and I am so happy.
That was the longest comment ever, but I was just so excited over Forever 21's size 12 jeans.
