Sunnies

Such a cool word – “Sunnies”.  ”Sunnies” is another name for sunglasses (I believe of Australian descent), which I definitely need everyday living in Florida.  Along with handbags, shoes and jewelry, I am very drawn to new sunnies.  Ask my husband (although he cannot make fun of me because I believe the last time I counted his sunglasses, he was up to 6 pairs).

The newest edition to my collection are the Ray-Ban ‘New Wayfarers’:

 

 

 

 

 

I have always wanted a pair of Ray-Bans.  I think I had a pair of black wayfarers when I was younger…they were prescription sunglasses.  I saw these at the optical where I had my annual eye exam and had to have them.  Classic.

 

 

 

I got these for our 10th anniversary.  We had just finished dinner and were walking around the mall when I happened to stumble upon a sunglass store.  The sales person must have seen the words “sunglass lover” and “had a glass of wine with dinner” on my forehead, because 20 minutes later I was walking out the door with these beauties!  The color frame that I purchased has more of a grey calico print to it, but the heart shaped within the cat eye frame sold me!

 

 

These are a GREAT pair of sunnies.  (Wow, didn’t realize I am on somewhat of a Ray-Ban kick).  They are super lightweight and are the perfect size.

 

 

 

 

The shape of this pair is so cool…maybe will be my next pair?  Kidding…

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Remember the pair a few pairs back from Ray-Ban?  I just found these Forever 21 wayfarers online for over $100 less!

Stitch Fix Revealed!

I couldn’t wait to open my Stitch Fix box and see what was inside!!  I absolutely LOVE Stitch Fix…and I promise I am not paid to say that!!!  I really do feel that the stylists know what I like but don’t necessarily gravitate to in the stores (when I actually have time to go to the stores, which is NEVER).

I loved by box of goodies, as usual!  Here is what I received:

 Everly blouse

I am wearing this shirt today – love it!  This is the Everly Dellora v-neck zig-zag blouse.  Today I am wearing a pair of black skinny jeans and black ballet flats.  So comfy and I love the fact that the tab-sleeves are sewn in place…they won’t unroll!

Kensie jeans

Kensie bay polka dot cropped skinny jeans – I would never have chosen this pair of cropped jeans if I were shopping in a brick and mortar store.  I love polka dots, but probably wouldn’t have been drawn to it.  I was a bit skeptical of this pair, but tried them on just to see.  I like them!  They are super soft and fit very well…I’ll be keeping these :)

Laila Jade

Laila Jayde – Alisa mix stripe front pocket shirt – super soft, classic t-shirt that would go well with white denim skinnies.

Dylan & Rose

Dylan & Rose Florian overlap tulip pocket skirt -

Now that I am in the market for a new career, this came just in the nick of time!

And for the piece de resistance…

BB Dakota

BB Dakota – Zoya swiss dot peter pan collar top -

This is my absolute FAVORITE piece from the bunch!!

Put a white cami underneath and pair with skinnies and I’m good to go!

I know that the concept may seem very unconventional – “How do I know what size I am?” I get a lot!  It just works!   Try it once, and see for yourself.  Stitich Fix has been awesome to me!!

Guess What Came in the Mail!?!

I know I said that the last time I ordered one, it was going to be my last because I am closing on a house (very soon).  I couldn’t help it…my Stitch Fix came in the mail!  I am going to check it out tonight – I’ll take lots of pics and maybe even ones with me actually wearing the items LOL.  Stay tuned….
