It’s Friday!!! Wahoo! I hope you all have a great weekend! Here’s what I’ve found while out and about shopping in the last month.
I’ve been looking for a clunky-ish pair of white sneakers (it seems the clunkier the better these days. Hello, Gucci and the giant air bubble under the heel, a la Balenciaga) that don’t cost $600, that can give me the big white sneaker look to wear with my skirts and dresses, and that still feel like me. After ordering the Nike Air Force 1’s, Puma’s and Van’s, I was deflated, until my (young) sister-in-law told me about these Frye sneaks! YAY!!! I found the perfect pair of white sneakers that give me the look without breaking the bank!
All summer long I was looking for a plain, faded black denim skirt. I didn’t want it to have any interesting detail. I just wanted it to be plain, so it would stand the test of time. Well, low and behold, I found it at the end of summer! It’s actually a new arrival at Madewell, which seemed weird to me. But then I remembered how long it stays warm in the fall and how I could pair it with a sweater and booties, so I felt justified making the purchase!
I found a new favorite t-shirt, and I wasn’t even looking for one! My sister and I were shopping, and I came across this tee. I wasn’t all that impressed with it on the hanger (as is the case with most tees), but I tried it on anyway. I’m sure glad I did because the material is perfect (not see through and not too clingy) and the cap sleeve is darling!
Here it is in black…
FRAME tee ON SALE for 25% OFF (TTS)
and white.
This t-shirt is one of those purchases that may not be very exciting at first, but once I saw how many times I was able to wear it, I was so happy to have it!
This dress is t-shirt material, the V isn’t too low, and the sleeves are so cute and add interest. Winner!
I can’t stop wearing these jeans! I can wear them with sandals, sneakers and mules. For sizing reference, I am 5’8″.
I specifically love Paige waxed denim because they’re really comfy (like leggings). Then I saw they’re offered in army green, and I’m in!
This dress has 4.9 stars with 16 reviews, and it’s offered in plus sizes. Need I say more?!?
I love a classic black bag with no hardware (staying power) that has an option crossbody! Just wait until you see the price!
Firstly, I just love totes! I just do. And secondly, I love animal print! Oh, and thirdly, the price is right!
It comes in gold, too! Too hard to decide!
I’m in love with my new workout leggings and matching bra from Varley!
So, naturally, I bought these Varley leggings!
This is what I’ve seen while out and about shopping in various places! What’s your favorite? I have too many, but my favorite is probably the tees because they’re on sale and I’ve already worn them a ton!

What a great post with fantastic finds! I’ve got my eyes on that black tote from Anthropologie. Would love to see a pic of you carrying it.
Carly Lee says

THANK YOU!!!
Annie says
Thank you for the picks! I like the crossbody and tote from Anthropologie and may have to order! Did you end of with the leopard print or the gold? Which do you think you would be a better neutral if you can only get one?
Can I ask what is the brand of the green t shirt you are wearing, with the Mother jeans?
Thank you!
Carly Lee says
Hi Annie, I did not buy the tote because I just bought a new tote during the Nordstrom Anniversary Sale. But, I would probably purchase the gold tote because I have a black and pink tote. HTH!! The green top is by Cloth and Stone (link here http://bit.ly/345Bgf0). I didn’t link to it in the post because I found it was too short for my liking. Otherwise, it’s super cute!
Annie says
Thank you! I ordered the gold tote & the black crossbody and I am waiting for them to arrive, good to know about the green top!
Anne says
Great picks! What color of tote did you get?
