Cash Or Credit - Lady in White

The other day I tried on the most gorgeous white midi dress that had a pleated skirt and fitted top. I felt like a million dollars in it {which is a serious rarity lately}. Then I looked at the price tag and I wanted to cry at how expensive it was. While I do believe in a splurge here and there, I couldn't justify another big purchase. It did however inspire me to create a cash or credit with similar styles. I am totally obsessed with this lady like look with it's soft color palette and sophisticated style. A trench will get some serious wear here in New England but if you want to take on a more trendy color like a baby blue then I would definitely choose to save on it. A little white dress is a wardrobe staple and my nude pumps might be the most worn item come Spring so that definitely was worth a splurge for me. Check out the two looks below at the two very different price points. Happy Shopping!

In The Nude

Morning friends...Sorry for yet another shoe post but I have been on a major beige binge lately when it comes to shopping. This is especially my favorite when it comes to footwear as I love that the neutral color goes so well with everything in your wardrobe. Not only can a nude shoe can elongate the leg they work so well when you're wearing bright colors on top and need to tone it down to avoid being too matchy-matchy. So whether it comes to pumps, sandals or flats...a neutral nude shoe is always a smart investment. I guarantee they will be worn on heavy rotation and a closet favorite in little time!

tortoise

I have already shared my complete admiration for the admiration of animal prints such a leopard and the love affair continues on with a different type print - tortoise. Not only does this dynamic pattern  boast the same beloved color palette of black and tan that completely consumes my wardrobe but it's so versatile that it virtually can be paired with any color and look fabulous. It just might the perfect fall accessory to your wardrobe! I always loved this material for eye glasses but the ways to wear this faux animal print is available in so many more stylish ways. The best part is what was once a luxury commodity and required the sacrifice of cute turtles is no longer. The print is usually on resin and made to resemble the endangered animals shell. I am especially smitten with that rhinestone embellished necklace and iPhone case. Which are your favorites???
