Once again, the house we wanted got another offer on it. Needless to say I am disappointed and frustrated. So I took my frustrations out on some retail therapy


When:
Thursday, July 9th…at least it is only six months until my birthday!
Where:
Work. We are headed to Charleston and Murrells Inlet this weekend. Charleston to check on our townhome (know anyone who needs a long-term rental in Charleston, SC??) and then to MI to see the hubby’s family.
What:
Sweater – J.Crew
Shirt – Express
Belt – Old Navy
Short/Pant/Capri Pants? – Banana Republic.
Shoes – GAP. I know I should have worn heels, but I was tired and my muscles are sore from working out, sue me
Earrings – Boutique
Scarf - Thrifted 99 cents
Purse – Banana Republic



When:
Wednesday (sad, I just typed Thursday), July 8th, 2009
Where:
Work, lunch with hubby and our mortgage lender at Brixx, then Zumba with TheChicLife
Took the train (ie. lightrail) to lunch, so decided to whip out the camera and take some pics. I was getting bored with the locations around our apartment complex!
What:
Blue Ruffle Top – F21
Yellow Cardi - Old Navy
Skirt (w/ POCKETS!!!) – Express
Shoes - Report
Belt - Target
Bag - Banana Republic. My other bags were getting jealous, so I gave Lou-Lou a break
Thanks for your suggestions on the blog…I have some ideas up my sleeve and hopefully I will be able to work on them this weekend! Stay tuned…

When:
July 7th, 2009
Where:
Work…I have had this vest sitting in my closet for a while and kept trying to think of what to pair it with. I totally felt like a hippy or a middle schooler all day and didn’t like the look, but ah well I will post it anyways.
What:
Top – Banana Republic
Vest - F21
Pants - Limited
Shoes - Nine West
Necklace - F21
In other news, I have been pondering ways to diversify the blog as I have gotten stuck in a rut of just doing StyleDiary posts. What would you like to see/read about that you might not see on other blogs? I am hoping to do some updating this weekend and would love to have input from you!
…wish it was Sunday…cause that’s my fun day…


When:
Monday, July 6th
Where:
Typical Monday at work…half my coworkers are still gone on vacation and the other half are slowly getting back into the swing of things. Makes for a pretty uneventful work day!
What:
Dress – Diane Von Furstenburg, Vintage
Shoes - Nine West (I finally found my lost sandals…I have been looking for these all summer and found them in a whirlwind cleaning spree this weekend!!)
Blazer – Isaac Mizrahi for Target, I wasn’t really loving this blazer but it’s cold in my office and better than my NorthFace
Unfortunately at work sometimes function wins over fashion, boo.
Earrings – Luna of Charleston


When:
Friday, July 3rd
Where:
Enjoying a day off from work, looking at houses (do we see a common theme to my spare time?) and lunch at Panera (Fuji Apple Salad…yummy!). We actually went back to look at a house that we had seen back in the spring. It needs some updating and the price has dropped enough to justify putting money back into the updates. Perhaps we can get our ducks in a row and we will be fixing up a great home for ourselves!
What:
Shorts – Express (two-ish summers ago). I wear shorts as little as possible, but it has been so hot and muggy here that they are necessary!
Top – F21
Headband – Knit Belt from another top
White leather sandals and earrings – Express


(Doesn’t it look like fall in this pic, weird!)
When:
Sunday, July 5th. HAPPY BIRTHDAY to my brother (even though I am pretty sure he has never seen the blog!)
Where:
The usual Sunday errands, lunch, groceries, etc.
What:
Jean Jacket – GAP, so old it is getting close to vintage
White Sandals and Earrings – Express (yup, same from previous day, sometimes convenience wins over thought)
Dress - F21
Belt/Scarf – Thrifted, Charlotte, NC
Hope everyone had a great holiday weekend!
