Daily Outfit - 02/26/09

I've been kind of a Debbie Downer this week I realized. Not sure why besides the fact that I don't feel that well. I need to get over it though ~ no one wants to read a whoa is me blog!

~ So, its Thursday! Yay!
~ We are having our monthly company luncheon today (where I will get a gift card to a restaurant since my b-day was earlier this month) complete with Salad and Potato Bar from McAlister's.
~ After work my department is going out for team building aka drinks!
~ And I decided to sport some fun new accessories today.
(now that's better!)

* Yesterday at lunch one of my co-workers introduced me to the wonderful world of the new(er) For Love 21 Store at the mall downtown. It is a store of just Forever 21 accessories - shoes, purses, necklace, scarves, etc. It was awesome! I went with the intention of buying just a couple of things and 10 items later I was on my way out the door. However, at their good prices it didn't do much damage!

As for my Kmart Booties yesterday - they are true to size if you just wear tights/thin socks with them. You might want to go up a half size if want a bit of extra room. Here is the link to them if you want a pair (they are online only and not in stores). I would have never known that Kmart had such cute stuff if it weren't for reading blogs (The Cheap Chica's Blog to be exact). See, it does pay to read blogs, oops, I guess it costs actually, but I have cute stuff!

I luv that gold belt and scarf....It's almost 85 degrees today in Tx so layering is down to a minimum....so I was wondering how do you layer and work in pattern mixing during the summer/spring? ~Kendra~
