Hello all! Although I'm supposed to be saving money to study abroad, I some how found myself at the mall (shocker) and I was ready to drop some cash on new clothes! I've been on the hunt for the perfect lace up shoes and after being extremely disappointed Macy's was sold out of the Steve Madden ones in taupe, I finally settled on a pair from Nine West! I also ventured into Forever 21 for some new clothes that my budget could afford. I'm one of those people who actually enjoys going through every room in Forever 21. I think it was time well spent since I was able to walk away with 3 pieces. I was originally only going to buy 2 but on the way out I saw something else I knew I needed, does this happen to anyone else?! Here's what I bought:
Forever 21 Ribbed Knit A-line Dress: to be honest I usually hate ribbed clothing but something about this dress was calling my name! I bought it in a blush pink color and the store had a couple more colors (unfortunately the website only has cream left). This is a great basic for summer than can be dressed up or down depending on your shoes and accessories.
Forever 21 Contemporary Pleated Cami: I'm usually not a big fan of things with a peplum silhouette or ruffles, but again this was calling my name! When I saw it across the store I knew I needed it. I bought it in the mint color which will look perfect with white jeans and summer sandals for a nice dinner or while I'm studying abroad in Italy! For only $15.90 there was no way I was leaving without it.
Forever 21 Tassel-Hem Gauze Shorts: these shorts caught my attention when I was leaving the store and I decided to buy them on a whim without trying them on. I loved the tassel detailing, which is super trendy lately. I wish I had tried them on because they are a bit shorter than I was expecting, but I'm sure I'll still wear them either over a bikini or out with friends.
Nine West 'Signmeup' Lace-Up Flats: this is the purchase I'm most excited about and the reason I went on this shopping adventure. The best part of these shoes is the insane deal I got them for. I only paid $60!! Yup you read that right, only $60! Macy's had them on sale for $79 instead of $89 and they are having an insane shoe deal right now, if you buy one pair it's an extra 25% off, 2 pairs is an extra 30% off, and 4 pairs is an extra 40% off!! I even had Macy's gift cards so I didn't even have to spend any money on these. I think these will be the perfect flats all summer long and I'll be packing them for Italy too!
