I'm having a fab weekend, and I hope you are too! Hives are totally cleared up...I don't have to work...my birthday is coming up...I'm heading to sunny skies in a week...Life. Is. Good. I spent some quality time at the mall with my momma this morning and found some really awesome deals. Remember those scarf hangers I was talking about in my last post? I found them on sale for 50% off, so I bought six of them. I also picked up a few other goodies, including another pair of boyfriend jeans (since, clearly, I love them) and a polka-dot scarf that will work great in my hair.
I got this Nanette Lepore coat a few years ago when I was down with spending $400 on one item of clothing. It kills me to think of it now, especially because only a month or two after I bought it, I lost a good 20 lbs and it's been too big ever since. Oh well. Live and learn, I guess.
I'm off to go continue cleaning my room. I hate when you KNOW you own something but, because you can never find it, you think maybe you imagined owning it and you never really had it at all. That's how I feel about the hat I'm looking for, except I know I own it because I've taken pictures of myself in it before. And really, how many places can a giant floppy hat hide?
Coat: Nanette Lepore
Blouse: Target
Jeans: American Eagle
Shoes: Urban Outfitters

Glad your weekend is going so well! Mine is too. I love the title, I get the play on words "reddy" = "ready." Lovely coat and polka dotted shirt, it really brings out your hair! http://thearcenciel.blogspot.com/
ReplyDeleteThat outfit--it's perfection! I love everything about it--the coat, the polka dots, the shoes! Beautiful!
ReplyDeleteYou have such a beautiful skin.
ReplyDeleteAnyway, I love the top!
You look great, how awesome is that polka dot shirt!
ReplyDeleteI have to say, I used to hate boyfriend jeans, but lately they have grown on me, so I think I might give them a try. :)
Love this! And WOAH $400 for a coat! You mad woman!! :D
ReplyDeleteYea, I hate when I can't find an article of clothing, haha

I can't believe you got such a cute blouse at Target, of all places. You make it look EXPENSIVE!
ReplyDeleteGlad that your hives are gone.
Best thing about fashion? That you can pair a $400.00 jacket with a top from Target and look like a million bucks!
ReplyDeletethat coat is amazing! my parents will go crazy though if they found out that i've spent 400 bucks on a single piece of clothing! haha
ReplyDeleteYou look good in color. And I'm glad you're healthy and happy. Your hat story is quite funny!
ReplyDeleteYou look so great, all the time! This colour really suits you, and with your outfits I always find perfection down to the feet. I can't wear heels since I (kind of) broke my ankle, and it breaks my heart! xox

I love your polka-dot blouse and red jacket, so pretty! Those shoes are great too, I feel like I need to try to walk around in heels more often, they always make an outfit look even prettier. :)

you look so awesome! I'm in love with that red coat!:D
ReplyDeleteYeah you're so right, sometimes you buy stuff just to buy and these are mostely the stuff you'll never wear! But today I'm going to Primark, I think it's impossible to not spend money there haha.
<3
I'm glad the scratching part is over!! And you look great in red dots!! I'm sharing your rare ability on spending almost a month's salary on one thing that you love+absolutely must have (that particular time..) without feeling any guilt! And of course after I moved in with the bf and still have 1/3 of my things back at my parents house, I'm dreaming of "missing items" all the time... And you ROCK in jeans!! You almost make me wanna buy one for the first time! Have a lovely weekend!
ReplyDeleteOh but of course I HAD to add you, it is not that often I have the pleasure to go on a blog which has such a good quality. It is simple but so damn beautiful. I like your style and you seem to have such a great personnality!
ReplyDeleteIf once you come by Paris, I'll be happy to make you visit!
gosh I really love your red hair <3
ReplyDeleteWOW! it looks amazing!! I love your style! :)
ReplyDeleteLove your outfit, the coat is gorgeous, especially the colour. Hope you find your hat! x
ReplyDeleteBeautiful :)

I love every single piece you have on!
ReplyDeleteI think I need a pair of bf jeans, you always look so great in them!
ReplyDeleteThe colour of this coat is stunning beyond words. I'm very rarely down with spending $400 on piece, but if it's something as beautiful and unique as this, I think it's a worthwhile investment... unless you're going to lose a lot of weight :( It's a same it's too big, but it still looks fabulous worn open like this. Of course, I have a serious bias towards red trench coats because I idolised Carmen Sandiego when I was a kid :)
ReplyDeletexox,
Cee
That coat is gorgeous and I think you're getting away with it being too big - lets call it unstructured. I love it paired with the polka dots. And those shoes are such an unexpected colour - love it.
ReplyDeleteGood luck with the search for your hat. My wardrobe is a bit like that at the moment.
The coat is great...I wear Chloes red coat, its a bit big, but I agree with Emma....way to go on the hangers....sounds like you are having some happy times chickie!!
ReplyDeleteJust stumbled onto your blog and i have to put this out there...you ahve the most gorgeous hair! It's the perfect shade!

glad your hives are finally gone! i am SO having shirt envy. i am so pissed i didnt buy that shirt when it was at target! love it.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful outfit. Glad those pesky hives went! I am TOTALLY loving your gorgeous blouse.
ReplyDeleteThis magical Target place - I hear so much about it.
xxxxx
lovely outfit! red looks great with your hair!
ReplyDeleteI don't know, I think the coat still looks perfect on you, and bf jeans are made for you, Ashley. You look totally reddy for some fun in the sun!
ReplyDeleteI particularly love the color match, I love red and the turquoise!

You really look great in red! I love your top and jacket! So glad to hear your hives are gone. Good luck finding your floppy hat! I've misplaced items of clothing, I think there's a clothing monster in my house who eats them because I have no idea how they go missing! And my boyfriend is not my size so I know it's not him ; )
ReplyDeletegreat coat and blouse.
ReplyDeleteI need to get on the polka dot train.
Not one item of it my closet but every time I see someone wearing them I am all... that is so cute, why don't I own anything with dots!
Good luck on the hat search.

Wow, that top is so amazing and the color is great on you! Work it, girl. :)
ReplyDeleteAh! Those shoes! They make my heart go pitter-patter. Especially paired with the red. I am in love.
ReplyDeleteChic on the Cheap
I like it when a trench is too big. You can forgo the buttons and just wrap it in a tight cinch and tie it. I think it looks more elegant that way.
ReplyDeleteI love this coat and have always loved red clothes with red hair.
xoxo,
Tracy
