Lusting After Charlotte--


I'm so loving Charlotte Russe right now. Partially because I can find shoes in a size 11 that are stylish and reasonably priced. Their clothing is limited to a xl so I just shop their shoes&accessories unless I'm shopping for my daughter :) Plus they take Paypal.
So when my package arrived with it's two pair of boots and a little converse necklace for my daughter (see below) I was so excited. My excitement  faded just a little when I saw the actual color of the tan boot. Something about it's color and texture scream fake leather. Yes, they are fake leather but I have lots of faux leather items that could pass for the real deal. The black pair also has a strange greenish tint to it...ah, maybe it's my imagination.  The three pair of shoes below are on my LUST list from the Charlotte Russe store...a girl can dream.



       Denim Jeggings--Family Dollar
Ruffle front tunic-JCP.com
Purple Cardigan--Walmart
Boots-CharlotteRusse.com
Belt-thrifted
                                 Owl ring--Won-acceptingallofme.blogspot.com
  Watch--Fossil
   Nine West Fringe Bag--Ebay



I want to buy these shoes and just look at them all day...Is that to much to ask?

My Daughter LOVED this little Converse necklace!

Chic as I... wanna Be





I don't know about the rest of you ladies but I'm obsessed with the asos online shop. I dream of looking like those stylish curve girls. I especially love their peg leg trousers. I decided to give it a try and used a pair of light tan trousers I had thrifted awhile back. I've been drooling over the grays,tans,mauve's of late. In the future I will be doing my trousers up like this again. Amazing that abit of roll to the legs and you have a completely chic (in my opinion) new look for your trousers. I felt that styled this way it elongated my legs and I felt thinner.

Onto the bag. The bag has an interesting story. A few seasons ago I was watching Project runway and the models were given a nine west, fringe bag that I fell head over heels for. I searched Nine West online store forever searching for this bag to no avail. I decided to try ebay and guess what? I found it! except it was not in the camel color suede I wanted originally, it was a deep turquoise. I bought it anyway for around $40.00 from a ebayer from New Jersey (loving Housewives BTW)

Guess what?

When I get thirty google connect followers...this bag could be a contender for the giveaway,
