Happy Houndstooth

Remember when I told the heartbreaking story (ha ha) of my years- long obsession with the Express houndstooth winter coat?
Express can keep their coat for two hundred dollars. I just bought one for 49.99!

I refuse to be a soccer mom.

SO I’m sitting here on a Friday afternoon at work.

My Current Obsession

Purple is one of my favorite colors, which explains why I’m so excited about the upcoming surge for purple this season. Deep purples and jewel tones like wine and plum are huge this fall!
That being said, Nine West has these booties that I simply must have.

Best. Boots. Ever.

I’m at work right now and I was procrastinating by checking out www.ninewest.com.  I fell in love with these booties, and now I must have them. My friend Ellie and I are going shopping for her wedding accessories tomorrow and I just may have to swing in and say hello, gorgeous!
 
Seriously, are they not like, [...]
