today…

I’m not gonna lie about it, I really debated on posting these since I feel kinda nakey in them! But I just felt like this is how you should wear a top like this for a night out! Plus the back of it is just too awesome to play down! A lace bandeau bra? Why, yes please.  This is what I wore to work except I wore a black tank under it, of course. 

top- $15 TJ Maxx

lace bandeau bra- $10 Kmart

black jeans- $20 Old Navy

heels- $25 TJ Maxx

clutch- (silver) vintage. was my mom’s :)

ring- Christmas gift from my mom

dress- this was a great find! $6 at a thrift store. I wasn’t familiar with the name brand, so of course, I googled.  And I found this: Ali Ro, and most of the dresses hover in the $200 range.  I love the way it flows and the understated peter pan collar. Talk about a good find!!! I’ll file that under one lunch break well spent :)

tights- $5 kmart

shoes- $20-25 also kmart

elephant ring- local boutique $2

nails- Sinful Colors brand in “Secret Admirer”  I LOVE this color! It has a very fine glitter in it, and it is definitely worth the $1.99 at Walgreens.  I’ve gotten tons of compliments on it.

What nail polishes are you loving right now?
