Affordable by Amanda

bohemian maxi skirt

September 9, 2014

Top: Forever 21 // Skirt: Sears //
 Necklace: Forever 21 // Shoes: Target //
Nail Polish: Essie “Vested Interest” Fall 2013 // 

Ah, Monday. The dreaded beginning of a new school week. Honestly, I don’t have anything against Mondays. Luckily I have one class so I can focus the rest of my day to studying, reading, blogging, and shopping (and eating!). I love looking forward to a new week of outfits. This particular day I wanted to wear my new maxi skirt that I bought at Sears for only $8.00. The colors in this skirt and so vibrant. The paisley swirls of blues and pinks make matching easier. My top is a black halter from Forever 21 that I have previous worn in my very first blog post (oh, memories). The necklace was also a purchase from Forever 21. It was $7.99 and I got it an additional 30% off! I painted my nails this fun gold and green combination over the weekend. I used a classic green color from the Essie collection last fall! Target sandals are a staple in my wardrobe! These gold and brown ones are no exception. Follow my social media accounts (Instagram) (Pinterest) (Tumblr) for the latest updates!

      Thank you Michaela! Sears has a great selection of affordable finds, especially when their items are additionally marked down 60%!

    I love the top and necklace – Forever 21 always has such amazing clothes. I absolutely love your bracelets, I must ask, where did you get them from? 🙂

      Thanks for the comment Ashleigh! My pearl bracelet is from Forever 21, my gold bangle is a gift from my mom, and my silver bracelet is a Michael Kors stretch bracelet I found at Plato's Closet for $5.00!

    Oh okay, thanks for letting me know! I'm a sucker for cute accessories, so I always love finding out where other people get theirs from. Plus I can never seem to find cute bracelets anywhere.

    Your blog is absolutely adorable by the way! 🙂

    I'm a brand new beauty/fashion blogger, so I've only just set-up my blog, but it would mean the world to me if you could check it out and let me know what you think of it! I guess as a newbie I'd love to know what some more experienced bloggers think!
