Last week on my spring break I went to Ross because I naturally had birthday money burning a hole in my wallet. The first day I found some things that I went home and tried on. One dress I bought, I realized when I got home, had the sleeve cut outs (do you know what I'm talking about? like a sleeve, but it has a slit in the middle...), so it accentuated my arms and shoulders...something a girl with softball arms shouldn't accentuate. Anyways, I went back to Ross the next day to return the dress and I stumbled upon this Aztec sweater for...$9.99. Nine-freakin' ninety-nine, people! The one I had been eyeing over a year ago was over $50. I was in shopping heaven. And, if I'm being honest, I wore this sweater five out of the seven days of spring break. With yoga pants? Check. With jeans? Check. With yoga pants and flip flops to go get a pedicure? Check. I've already got my monies worth!
In other news...by the time you're reading this we will currently be (or already have!) signed the contract on our new house. It is a done deal, people!! Finally! After having the closing date pushed back numerous times since February 27th, we will officially be moving Saturday. Thank The Lord! Never in a million years did I think I would be buying my second home at 24, but then again, when does life go the way you thought it would?

- I am obsessed with OPI Shorts Story. It is the perfect summer pink.
- I really appreciate the love and comments about yesterday's post!
- Jessie James and Eric Decker had their baby yesterday. I can't even imagine how gorgeous that child will be!
- I have gone so long without TV that I am not even sure what reality shows I watch anymore.
I need to go check out Ross. I love those boots you have on and your hair is so cute!!
ReplyDeleteI always forget about stopping at Ross. That sweater is such a great find! I love how you paired it with gray and cognac!

I wish we had a Ross nearby. I always hit them up when we travel to AZ or CO. That sweater is AWESOME! Baby fever indeed. I have two boys and still have baby fever!
ReplyDeleteI love your new 'do, it is so stinkin cute! And what a deal on the sweater!
ReplyDeleteYour hair looks great! We don't have a Ross around here, but TJ Maxx is my go to for great deals on trendy items :) That bag is lovely too! Thanks for hosting Sarah!
ReplyDeleteFirst of all you look great with the new haircut. I SUPER LOVE YOUR AZTEC CARDIGAN. I purchased one too for about ten bucks. Mine is Brown, Hot Pink & Gray and I wore it on the blog last week. Great deal. I love Aztec these days.
ReplyDeleteI am so happy you guys got your second home finally.
Last but not least, I want to chat with you. What is your E-Mail address? Let me know. Thanks.
Cue lots of clapping for the home close!!!! CAN'T WAIT to be almost neighbors :) Love this look! I might have to check out Ross and see if I can find a similar sweater. I like that it's neutral and has a more classic vibe than a lot of the aztec sweaters I've found. Have a great rest of the week, lady!
ReplyDeleteSame here. Waiting forever to get an Aztec sweater and finally ran into one at Ross. I think I like yours better though :)
