I love sunny days!

Shirtdress - Aqua - Bloomingdales
Boots - Steve Madden - Purchase here
Checkerboard Belt - Anthropologie - Buy similar here


Now onto my current purchases..


I absolutely love my black motif Bianka Blouse. It was sold out for the longest time and somehow made a comeback during the sale. It's quite versatile - I've paired it with my Forever21 jeans and my Target boots and I've also worn it with a high waisted skirt. I definitely recommend this top! I'm not quite sure of the name of the apron, but I was able to score it for $7.95 - can't wait to use it when I bake cupcakes.

Don't you guys get excited when you score Anthro things at super low prices? :)

OOTD and 2 Dress Reviews!


Today's OOTD!




Nordstrom - BP Cardigan - $24.90
Anthropologie - Scallop Cloud Skirt
Anthropologie - All Wrapped Up Flats - $19.95!
Forever 21 - V-neck Tank - $2.50

I definitely recommend the cardigan, it's extremely soft and certain colors are actually on sale for $11.90. See it here-- http://shop.nordstrom.com/s/bp-three-quarter-sleeve-jersey-cardigan-juniors/3147799?origin=keywordsearch&resultback=2045


I tried on a few dresses today - the Glanz and the Kingston Road Dress. The colors on the Glanz dress definitely caught my attention - the colors are as vivid as they are online. I loved the idea of the dress, but it wasn't for me.




The Kingston Road Dress was GORGEOUS. The mix of different pastel colors make it perfect for the Spring season. And the added bonus? It comes with pockets!




In case anyone is wondering, the fabric was extremely soft and the neckline is very flattering. The only issue with this dress is the price -- $228 is a little too steep for me, I'm definitely going to wait for a sale.


The texture of the dress is very unique, here is a closeup picture of it -

Tyndall Coat

Yesterday I bought the Tyndall coat at the second price cut of $50! I scored the black leather Kachiri boots for 36.99!  The Whirl and Wind cardigan from Anthropologie is one of my fave cardis, its really soft and I love the subtle patterns on the front.  The Forever21 skinny jeans are a great staple to any girl's closet - they are currently $9.50 and don't fade when you wash them.  They are stretchy and VERY comfortable, in fact, I prefer them over any of my designer jeans!  Don't hesitate to leave a comment if you have any questions about these items!  - here is how I'm planning on styling it--

Peggy Sue and other great deals


After a much long anticipated wait for a price markdown on this dress, I was able to finally order it for $60!  I'm in love with the sheer straps and how the dress poofs out at the bottom.  I would definitely wear this dress with a belt and some high heels.

During the Anthropologie tag sale, I was able to score the Weisshorn Blouse for only $7!! -



You can only imagine how excited I was!  The cap sleeves, the polka dots, and the flowers all make this top so adorable!

On another note, if you are looking for some cute work shoes, I scored the UO Crocodile Pumps a couple months ago for $10 (click below link)--

Even though the site says they are $20, you can call CS and have them verify that they are $10 in stores, and they will give you a price adjustment!  These shoes will hurt the first time you wear them and then slightly stretch out in time.  I can generally wear them for 4-5 hours before they start hurting again, but it's all worth it since they look super cute and are at a great price!  The manmade material doesn't look cheap at all and i get compliments on them all the time - people are shocked when I tell them that I got them for such a cheap price.  These pairs go well with dresses, pencil skirts, and trousers - they're just overall very versatile.  I will post an outfit with these shoes just so you guys can get an idea of what they look like.

I'm heading over to Anthropologie and will post some of my favorite items later on today!  if you guys have questions or comments regarding anything I've posted, please don't hesitate to leave a comment or send me an email at anthrogirlonabudget@gmail.com.
