Discover...

Hold the phones kids. 
I went to Old Navy to shop away some feelings the other night, and well I just had to use my Old Navy Bucks...and you'll never guess what I found...
Baubles!
Jewels!
Shiny, sparkly trinkets!
Old Navy is trying their hands at accessories!
And I have to say I loved it all. 
I had such a hard time choosing, I must have circled the racks a zillion times. After about a half hour I finally settled on two necklaces, a pair of earrings, and two bracelets. (And my gorgeous sister is rocking a pair of snake earrings that I'm thinking of "accidentally" forgetting to return to her! oopsie)
There was headbands and hair clips in every color under the sun. 
Plus, the price was right!!
I didn't see anything over $12 and it was all color coordinated and on trend for the spring.
The rings were available in all sizes, which is awesome for thick digit girls like me. 
The personnel told me that only certain stores are trying it, so keep an eye out at a store near you. 


 I love the idea of the mixed materials...soft suede woven with a gold chain.I believe this came in a silver tone as well.  

this is my favorite! I love dainty little bracelets!!

these are my second favorites. they came in dark blue, graphite, black, lavender, and pale pink. 

I wanted a blue necklace and couldn't decide between this one and a solid blue but the other one was a bit smaller.  

maybe this is my favorite....I can see myself getting a lot of use out of this.

How I Wore: Poppy Red Peplum

As I blogged about earlier this month, I am in love with red. I jumped at the chance to wear this top out as soon as I could.
Top: Target (exact, coveting this one, and +size)
Boots: Candies via Kohls (similar, similar)
Jeans: Old Navy Rockstar (similar)
Necklace: Rue 21 (not online check stores)
Bracelets: Alex and Ani
Nail polish: SH @ home gel in Pat on the Black



I'm obsessed with peplum tops because they flatter a fuller figure like my own. I like that they are fitted on top and flare at just the right spot to cover my more...ahem... rounder troublesome areas. It makes the perfect curve when worn with skinny jeans or a pencil skirt. 

The other obsession I have with this OOTD is that necklace!!
Out of the park! It was so unique that I knew I had to have it when I laid eyes on it. I have been dying to find a top that needed a little jazzing and thought these items went very well together. 
 I received so many compliments I can't wait to wear it again & again!

What is your favorite item in your closet right now??
Tell me about it in the comments and leave me links to your blogs. 
I love to follow!!

Date night

For Valentines Day this year my fiance and I took a day off of life in the middle of the week and went to Foxwoods. He likes to play tables and I like to play dress up. =)
We went to David Burke for a yummy filet mignon....the one time a year I get such an expensive cut of meat is when we come here for an anniversary or holiday. 
After playing some roulette and mingling with all the other couples that were there for the romantic night we went bowling at the High Roller Lanes which was so fun! Very different from the "typical" local lanes. There was a DJ and videos playing and the couches were a far cry from the plastic seating I'm used to! Unfortunately I left my camera in the room and only got one snap in. If you ever visit Foxwoods make sure to carve out some time for bowling. So FUN!





Top: Old Navy 
(check the stores clearance section for deeper discounts! I think this one was $10 or less for me)
Shorts: Elle
Shoes: Payless (old) similar, similar
Bracelets: Alex and Ani
Necklace: Tiffany's

I love dressing up when we go to the casinos, even if I'm not going to the clubs and bars. The top is loose and casual and the shorts have the cute leather detail that acts as a belt. The shoes have a short heel which was perfect for all the walking we did.  


I just had to share a pic of my hair- new cut and color- and I loved how it came out!


What did you wear for Valentines Day? Or your anniversary or holiday? What did you do?
