Shopping

I need some spring and summer clothes and when work is slow (and I'm extra-special bored), my mouse tends to wander to such clothing websites as ModCloth and Lulu's, to name a couple. Yesterday I was lucky enough to find a discount code for Lulu's, which I dutifully utilized after days of staring longingly at the the items I had saved in my shopping cart. Wanna see what I got?



I loved this flowy little number from the moment I laid eyes on its sweet ruffles. The color is just divine, and it could be worn with a skirt (which I never wear), jeans, or pants with some cute, strappy sandals (which I need to buy more of as well).

And speaking of strappy sandals, I bought this oversized bag a few weeks ago and have been patiently waiting to transfer the contents of my fall/winter bag until I can safely wear cute, open-toed shoes without fear of frostbite. (The bag wouldn't look as good with winter shoes.) Uh-uh, not quite yet.

Bought these earrings yesterday. They're actually made of recycled buffalo bone (now, how do you recycle bones, I ask ya?). I loved the pattern, and the fact that even the posts are made of bone. I am hoping that, because of this, my ears won't react to these like they do with anything made of nickel. Lulu's also has a bevy of wooden earrings that look really smart, but I worry about buying breakable things. I'm that clutzy.

And last but not least, this top. I like the drawstring, peek-a-boo neckline and the light, airiness of it. I could pull this off at work, I think. Well, not PULL it OFF, literally. That sounded bad. Okay, moving on...

So that's what I've bought from Lulu's so far. I should add that I like Lulu's because their styles range from classic to trendy, they have a TON of items for sale, and their prices are pretty good.

I should get the tops and earrings by late next week. Hopefully, they'll fit and not make me look pregnant (like my brother thought I was over the weekend-- that's a whole 'nother story).

Ta!
