This week was full of meetings and thankfully the temperatures cooled down for just a day, so I threw on a pair of jeans and booties while keeping it cool with a flowy tank. You will probably see these jeans in weekly posts because I absolutely LOVE them. I have two pairs and want to get more because they are super comfortable, stretchy around the legs but still fit the waist perfectly. I wore this outfit to a meeting at Mangiamo Pronto, which I had never been to. Seriously one of the best shrimp salads I’ve ever had. I want to drink lemon poppyseed dressing on the reg now. On the reg.
- Beige Booties: Target for $35.00
- Jeans from Insypre Boutique for $50 (they did not have to be tailored) by Flying Monkey Jeans
- Black flowy tank: Pink’s Boutique for $25.00
- Necklace from World Market for $10.00 (here is a similar one)
A couple people asked if I would share some workout outfits. I’m not one of those cute workout people. Seeing myself in pictures working out is frightening. But I do love me some workout clothes, especially some that I’ve found recently!
- Orange Reebok Nanos on sale at Dick’s for $70 (here is a similar pair)
- Grey capris from Athleta (here is a similar pair – I wear a small in their pants and usually never wear small, just FYI)
- Splits59 Tone Razorback Tank in Mint (on sale right now for $25!)
- Black Champion Sports Bra found at Target (on sale now for $11.00!)
This was my favorite outfit of the week. Not only was in the most comfortable when it was over 95 degrees out, but it was the most colorful. I’ve been waiting for an outfit to sport this necklace with and this coral shirt from Lulu’s was the perfect fit. I bought a medium in this top and it was pretty open on the sides, meaning a bit of side boob, so be thoughtful of that if you pick one up!
- Black wedges: Steve Madden but found them at Rags Consignment Shop for $42.00 – originally $100.00! (here is a similar pair)
- Black shorts: Pink’s Boutique for $20.00
- Lulu’s Red Orange Top for $25
- Turquoise and gold necklace from Pink’s Boutique for $20
- Couple Repeat Gold Rings from Lulu’s for $12
- Pink/Orange beaded bracelet from Hailee Grace for $12
Here is another workout outfit brought all by Splits59. I really love that so many of their tops are stylish enough to wear around town. AND they are super breathable when in the gym. Which is wonderful since we don’t have air conditioning in our gym. It’s like a smelly hell. Fact.
- Jackson by Jackson
- Splits59 Nova Trailblazer Performance Capri in Black (now on sale for $50)
- Splits59 Devon Singlette Tank in Eco (now on sale for $33)
- Boob shot brought to you by Splits59 Loren Seamless Bra in yellow – other colors now on sale for $25 (this bra does not have a ton of support but this one definitely does and is by far my favorite!)
This last outfit was worn on a girls night out with Laura when we grabbed some carnitas at Matador in the Highlands of Denver. My favorite part of the outfit was by far the necklaces I put together. Especially since I found one at a thrift store. Thrifty finds are just the greatest.
- Jean Shorts: American Eagle for $40.00
- Beige flowy top from Twirl Boutique for $30
- Sandals from Insypre Boutique for $36.00
- Golden Chevron Necklace from Starlet on Broadway in Denver for $20
- Silver and bronze necklace from a thrift store for $5.00
But by far my favorite thing I got all week was the absolutely stunning bag by Kelly Moore. I’ve never been super into purses or bags. I’d just rather spend my money on other things. Like food. And shoes. And food. But when Kelly Moore let me check out their Esther bag, I instantly fell in love. I’ve never had a bag that was so gorgeous AND so convenient. It has pockets for my computer as well as my camera and whatever else I can think of. I’m so excited to be able to take this on my book tour trip to Texas. This week I’ve been using all of it’s pockets to hold my shaker bottle, my wallet, my deodorant and chapsticks as well as some snacks. It’s nice to have a bag that is so deep but you can still see everything inside of it because of the dividing pockets. If you’re looking to invest in a bag that will keep your expensive items intact (such as your Mac) this is the bag for you!
Seems sorta wrong that you can create insanely good recipes, write comedy, and now we know this is how you look when you run around town?!! Dang it!!!
If you start posting pictures of a log home you built, with the trees in your backyard and your bare hands, I’m totally boycotting. Maybe.
I love it all, but I can’t get enough of the bag! The color and shape is right up my alley!
LOVE, LOVE fashion Fridays!
LOVE those booties! I’m amazed at what Target has these days…you can find so many good finds for great prices. I also LOVE those lace shorts. I’m totally enjoying fashion fridays…HA!
Love your outfits! I especially love the jeans. I’m always looking for a good pair of jeans that fit in the waist!
I just about lost my mind when I saw the Esther bag. It’s the most beautiful bag I’ve ever seen.
agreed!
I have to tell you… thank you SO much for suggesting those American Eagle jean shorts. I have not worn jean shorts since literally junior high ’cause they never fit right or they ride but I loved how your’s fit and decided to check them out. The result= I bought three pairs. So comfy, don’t ride, and fit my ‘lifting thighs’ without alterations. Thank you, thank you, thank you 🙂
Yay!! So glad to hear!
hahah this is so funny- your gym does smell! My husband and I dropped in from NY back in January and when we went to use the bathroom and do wall walks, I almost barfed. I don’t drink beer (vodka all day errry day-well not everyday, more like once a week…) so the brewery or whatever is going on next door was suuuuper vomit inducing. What’s the deal with that?!
And one more thing- the colors for our wedding were turquoise and coral so I am totally down with that outfit.
The bags are all cute – not sure how I would decide! And I think you should keep the orange dress – it’s a great color on you!
