So the only thing I bought is from Express, the Ribbed Drape-Neck Sweater, in purple shadow:
It looks rather floppy on the model, but it is soooooo freaking cute in person! It's a rather thin material and fits on the loose side. I usually wear a XS at Express, but I got a size S in this top because XS looked too tight on the bottom when I held it up. I didn't try it on in the store. I think the S fits well, because it's supposed to be loose fitting. The XS might have been ok too since the fabric does have lots of stretch but I really wouldn't know.
I actually wore it today to work. It made working on my birthday a little better! I usually like to take my birthday off work even if I have nothing to do, because it's a good excuse to stay home. But I'm going to Vegas this weekend so I'm taking later this week off and I decided to go in today. I thought this top was super comfortable and I got tons of compliments on it! Perfect for work! I wore my hair curled today like the model has here. I think that is a good look with the style of the top! Oh yeah I also wore a light tank top underneath because I thought this top might have been a little semi see-through.
Anyway, I think I may have to get another one of these in a different color! They have a light gray one, a black and a tan one. They are actually all cute, so it will be hard deciding which one to get!
Oh yeah, totally off topic but I went to Yogurtland for dessert tonight and got way too much candy toppings than I should have. But they now have these cute Hello Kitty cups and spoons! It had been a while since I went there last, I guess they made a deal with Hello Kitty. How cute!

ReplyDeleteHi, random OT thing. So I was at a wedding this past weekend where the bride had included a huge basket of flip flops in her wedding colors (purple and lavender) in varying sizes so that female guests (of which there were many as she is a dancer) could kick off their heels and dance the night away in flip flops. Just thought it was the most ingenious wedding tidbit I'd seen in a while and thought I'd share since I know you're planning a wedding!
ReplyDeleteThanks everyone for the bday wishes!! I had a very nice day! =)
ReplyDelete@J: Funny I actually thought of doing that when I saw some wedding pictures somewhere that had the same idea! It's very cute, and would work really well with my sorta beachy theme. We'll see if I can get around to that! Still lots to do! Yikes!
Happy belated birthday! Hope yo u had a great trip to Vegas. Mine was on the 23rd, but it was not nearly as exciting as going to Vegas.
ReplyDeleteA Yogurtland just opened here in NJ close to my work, I love it! I'm not good at picking a ton of toppings, I usually pick one or two flavors and try to find a topping or two that go with both. I need to be more creative.
Happy belated to you too!
ReplyDeleteI am the master at mixing every flavor of yogurt and toppings. Hahaha. Seriously, I just pile it all on. All my yogurt gets mixed together so I don't even taste any particular flavor but it's never bad tasting. The toppings are awesome. I love the new toffee crunchy thingy. That and peanut butter cups, some white chocolate chips and I'm in heaven! Sometimes I even top it all with some condensed milk or caramel. Bad I know, but so good at the same time.
