i broke the rules - part 2.

while shopping on saturday, i made some purchases. the good news is, i only spent about $100 on 4 things. the bad news is, i wasn't supposed to spend any money on clothes this month. maybe that was a little too ambitious of me...

1. leopard flats. after seeing a pair of steve madden leopard flats last week and swooning over them, i decided i would buy them next month.

but then i foud these babies at old navy for $23 and couldn't pass them up.

2. bathing suit top. i got these fantastic high wasted bottoms a few months ago and have been searching for an inexpensive, solid, fun colored top to go with them. $15 - yes please!

{old navy - tons of colors!}

3. basic sandles. cause you can never have enough, especially for $15.

{old navy - also tons of colors!}

4. a fabulous, long awaited, pleated, maxi skirt. found at marshalls with an original price tag of $189. i got it for $50 and i'm thrilled. this skirt is similar - but mine is black. i can't wait to wear it!
