Gilty Pleasure

There is one thing I hate spending money on because I know they will only hold up for one season with me: tights and leggings. Even though they are everywhere and at all price points...knowing that after the winter they will be tossed, kills me...

Yesterday I was browsing through the sales on Gilt Fuse (if you aren't a member and would like to be, email me and I'll send you an invitation). I have a $50 credit I have been holding onto for far too long, so I was looking for something that I wouldn't normally purchase to treat myself! I was about to checkout with a Charley 5.0 black mini pencil skirt with an exposed back riri zipper when my hand hesitated. For some reason I thought I should see what other sales are happening this week before I make this purchase. I quickly scanned over the calendar and saw that LnA was coming up. I emptied my cart and set my alarm to ensure that I wouldn't miss out. For the last couple of months I have been obsessing over this brand and how flat out cool their designs are. So this morning with my $50 credit in hand, an empty cart, and a fistful of determination I purchased this pair of lace striped leggings. Cannot wait to receive them...sooner rather than later!

PANTing...

It's ALMOST impossible for me to think that in a few months I will be bundling up again to accommodate the weather, but I can't lie! I LOVE Fall and the cold. Aside from it being a pain to check a coat, and losing half of the cuteness factor under the coat (that is changing this season thanks to my talented mother) I'm looking forward to layering and adding some pieces with fantastical details to my wardrobe.

The marching band and military trend is something that I've been trying to figure out how to incorporate more of but in a fresh and unique way. Uhhh these pants by Bec & Bridge are genius! Love the side detail on the thigh and at the ankle. I think it is even better that they are monotone!

I found these LNA leggings on a new website the other day while doing some research. I debated all last season on purchasing the American Apparel leggings with the side zipper and then second guessed myself on a pair of back seam tights (I know, hesitation gets you nowhere)! This is the perfect combo of the two. The leggings have a 26 inch zipper, pairs perfectly with black booties, over sized sunglasses and sequin cardigan optional!
