I have agreed to let myself buy those things that I really want and have been wanting.

(seems like a win, ya?)

I am notorious for buying everything the second it gets on the racks.

I am trying to eliminate those big, pointless, weird buys.

To fill in those blanks in my closet I have started searching for deals.

Things I may  not be able to wear for years and years but that are on trend now, and fill in my wardrobe.

I know everyone likes a good deal

Fridays in the retail world are not my favorites, but this weekend it is just me, my mani & pedi, a girls night at a hotel and an awesome wedding.

Enjoy the weekend, I know I will.

IT IS...

BOOM!

BOOM!

I admit, I was very enthusiastic about one of my favorite {Phillip Lim} coming to Target.

I may have even bribed my husband to wait outside that morning before the doors even opened.

I love this boom sweater.

I mean really love.

I plan on wearing it with a skirt, jeans and even the sweats I got to make it into a jump suit.

Nordstrom recently added a new department to their "TBD" section.

"Wear to work for the modern women"

That is wear I found this gem of a skirt.

The leather is soft, the length is good.

AZ is starting to feel like fall.

There are big things happening this season for me, and the weather only adds to my happiness.

GLADIATOR x LEATHER

I have been obsessing over gladiator sandals for weeks now.

I have been dying dying dying for THESE  and do not think my life will be complete without them

(at least my wardrobe)

I love gladiators with dress, shorts, and skirts but despise them with jeans or leggings.

I am loving all the leathers this season.

Especially in shorts.

I am dying for these or these.

This is my perfect outfit for this month's "fall" in Arizona.

WHAT I WANT WEDNESDAY

It's....

WHAT I WANT WEDNESDAY

{Nordstrom Triple Points Edition.}

If you do not have a Nordstrom card, get one.

Today starts the first of five days where Nordstrom offers their card holders triple the points on anything they buy in store or online.

It is a good time of year, you buy the must have for the upcoming season change,

they reward you with more rewards.

It is a win win.

Nordstrom carries everything from lotions, to clothes to beats by dre.

It is your one stop shop with so many new things I want on a daily.

Here are my absolute favorites for this week.

You can not go wrong with any of these...especially during triple points.

ONE  TWO  THREE  FOUR  FIVE  SIX  SEVEN  EIGHT

{add these items to YOUR closet by clicking the link through the number}

ONE. I love all things Phillip Lim, whether it be at Target or at Nordstrom. This bag is perfection.

TWO. I die for a good bomber jacket. It may not be cool yet but when it is I am wearing this...alot.

THREE. I spend my whole life searching for the perfect plaid. This silk button down takes the win.

FOUR. I love all things animal print, but especially this specific print. This bootie is the perfect height.

FIVE. This tee comes in white as well. It's amazing weather leggings or skinnies, it is easy and a must.

SIX. Love that House of Harlow is using their classic pendant on a wrap bracelet. This is a everyday yes.

SEVEN. Did I mention I am ready for fall? This cotton slouchy beenie is just what I have been craving.

EIGHT. Elizabeth and James can do no wrong. I am absolutely one-hundred percent obsessing over this sweater.

Happy Mid-Week

My first half was long and annoying,

here is too a better one.

XOXO,

LEX

FRUGAL FINDS FRIDAY

FRUGAL is not a word that describes me.

Recently I have been having some good luck finding pieces I really love for an awesome price!

It is so easy for me to walk into Nordstrom (on the daily) and find really great, well fitted pieces.

With the less expensive pieces it is not always that easy.

These are some of my favorite things that I have found this week.

{the fit is well, and the trend is on point}

I am loving these finds, it is worth the buy.

TREND REPORT

MUST HAVE DENIMS FOR FALL.

If there is one thing that I know, it is denim.

I have been working with denim for 4 years now, and there is not a women I can not fit.

Denim trends are not as fast passed as other trends, they are a good investment and the perfect fit is worth the price.

{PIPERLIME has an amazing offer right now 25% OFF ALL DENIM using the code 

DENIM

Do not miss it, this amazing offer ends TODAY!}

Here are my MUST HAVE denims for this fall.

RAG & BONE SKINNY

THE CLASSIC SKINNY

{dark wash, skinny jean is the classic denim in everyone's closet. out with the bootcut, in with the tapered ankle. you can roll, tuck, or scrunch this denim, it works with any and all shoes, and is a pair everyone should have in the closet. make sure the fit is perfect and the wash is dark.}

HUDSON COLLIN

CAMO

{we have been seeing a lot of camo lately, and it is not going anywhere. we forecast this pattern all the way until fall 2014.}

 CITIZEN AVEDON

SHADES OF GREY

{grey is a must have look for the fall and into the winter. treat it as neutral as a denim, it works with everything in your closet (besides browns)}

J BRAND MARIA

HIGH RISE SKINNY

{the high rise is here and it has been perfected. no more Jessica Simpson-like mistakes. the fit is right and is ready to go, whether you are into crop tops or not, this is a must.}

 J BRAND TABITHA

COATED 

{leather is expensive and can be a hard fit. these are the perfect leatheresque look for this season. they fit like a denim but look like a leather. it's a win win.}

 RAG & BONE ZIP DETAIL SKINNY

ZIPPER DETAILS

{zippers are all the rage, and I do not disagree. love the details on the pockets and on the ankles (do not be fooled these can still be altered in length) everyone needs a pair to rock up the wardrobe.}

ANYONE can wear all of these styles of denim.

It is not about the denim it is all about the FIT.

Make sure the fit of the jean is right for you.
