A case of the Mondays...bleh

I hate Mondays.  I really do.  By Sunday evening, I start getting a little sad because it always means back to work on Monday.  But there are some good things to Mondays in the world of blogs.  Mondays are when new postings are up for the Great Weekly Exchange at J.Crew Aficionada's blog!  I love perusing through there and have scored many a great deals!  I have tons of Jcrew items that I had purchased through their final sales which I need to go through and see if there's anything for me to post.  Another of my favorite blogs, Effortless Anthropologie does the same, but is named The Trade Market.  I've only recently discovered that I love Anthropologie's clothes and think I'll easily catch up with all my J Crew items in my closet!  Those 2 blogs definitely help me cope through my case of the Mondays week by week!  Gotta love retail therapy!

2 days worth of shoes!

Sorry fellow shoe-aholics, I'm a day behind of my shoe posts! Shame on me!

Coffee of the Day: Starbucks Venti Region Blend (Bold) Coffee - the week prior, Starbucks had their Sumatra coffee as the bold pick, sad to see it go, but this Region Blend was pretty good!

Shoe of the Day: Nine West Eriley in Ivory

Wasn't able to get any good outfit photos, but I paired these shoes with a cream colored cardigan with a light brown tank underneath and Jcrew's Saturday pants in Navy.  These shoes were surprisingly comfortable considering I wore them for the very first time for 8.5 hours at work!  Very sturdy heel and not slippery at all.  Definitely a keeper!  Seems like the ivory is available in Size 10 ($48.25) or the brown in Sizes 7.5 and 10 ($50.50) are available still at amazon.com!

Coffee of the Day: Starbucks Venti Region Blend

 

Shoe of the Day: Tribeca Hot Cakes Ballet Flat in Gold

Real life photos:

 

Such cute and comfy flats, these are a favorite of mine! I luckily scored these on amazon.com two years ago for only $17.99!

Paired these shoes with Anthropologie's Ring of Roses Top in Botanical Rose (on sale in stores for $39.95) and Jcrew's City Fit Cropped Pants in Khaki.

I've always loved the styles at Anthropologie, but never owned anything from them.  This past weekend they were having a sale and I purchased two of their tops.  I think I'm converted now, they had so many great clothes!  The one I wore today was extremely comfortable, a little loose fitting and the fabric was very soft and nice.  Green isn't a color I typically wear, but I really liked how this top looked and it was different, not your typical cookie cutter shirt from other stores.

Since I don't have a full length mirror, it's rather difficult to get actual outfit and shoe photos.  Tomorrow, I'll try to get my hubby to take a pic of my outfit for a complete post!
