Hello ladies! Before I get into this post, know that it doesn’t include absolutely everything I’ve purchased lately…but it’s everything I remembered to include. Warning—this post will be extremely picture-heavy! Hope you enjoy my latest finds!
First up, the deal of all deals—I got this gorgeous BCBG dress (I call it a “Kate Middleton Dress”) for a whopping $37. It was originally under $200 and I got it at the outlet so it was the sale price plus 50% off of that. BCBG almost never does 50% off last listed price so this was a huge score!
Hot pink belt from the J.Crew Outlet for $15:
Twelfth Street by Cynthia Vincent dress from MYHABIT.com (Amazon’s daily designer deal site) www.myhabit.com, I love it! This dress was originally $350 and I got it for $75.
Colorful printed scarf from Forever 21
Origins Zero Oil Moisturizer—I am really loving this. It keeps me matte for hours and hours. I typically use this if it’s really hot or humid or if I have an after-work even and want to stay shine free!
My Holy Grail Elnett hairspray—I like the one with the UV shield
I have read rave reviews on Oribe’s “Royal Blowout” product and my salon carries the line so one thing lead to another and I couldn’t resist. Verdict: makes hair soft, shiny, manageable, blow dries faster and easier.
I highly recommend it. So pricey, but worth the splurge.

Forever 21 shirt— $13.50—such a great deal! Looks fab on.
Forever 21 “Love 21” skirt, $17.50—polka dots are a huge trend for fall!
J. Crew No. 2 pencil skirt—another item I splurged on. It is so gorgeous in person and the color is absolutely stunning. Size way down on this one though. I had to go down two sizes for it to fit properly. $120 at J.Crew (buy it here) color is “viridian green”
How cute are these heels from Target? I got them on sale for $25.
Will report back on comfort when I wear them!

Cardigan from the J.Crew outlet. Was $88 and I got it for 40% off. Really love the black and white combo on this one, don’t own anything like it. Size down on this one!
My addiction to both light pink and dark purple nail polishes continues. I seriously need to stop but I couldn’t resist OPI’s “Step Right Up!” and Essie’s “Carry On”
Forever 21 Necklaces—pretty!
Once I got them in the black color, I couldn’t resist the turquoise “Danielle” earrings by Kendra Scott.
They are so gorgeous and make such a statement.
I waited until the site had a 20% off promotion and got them then!

These photos are actually from today—the black skirt is a new one from Forever 21! Couldn’t believe it was just $17.50—it is so soft and comfortable and the fit is lovely. Size down one on this skirt.
The jacket and dress below are both from Zara (LOVE that store!)
A pink blazer adds a little punch to my work outfits!
New iPhone case from Amazon.com (it’s by Cath Kidston)
…and lastly, something I DID NOT buy—this skirt from Zara.
I actually really loved it but the small was a tad bit too small for my liking and the medium was too large.
I wanted to wear it to work and it was just a little too sexy with the zipper on it. It’s really cute though!
Well, that was a ton of photos! Hope you enjoyed my latest shopping adventures. As I mentioned in a previous post—I have internet now so blogging is resuming to normal. Thanks for your patience once again and looking forward to reading your comments!
xoxo,
Veronika.
Rachel says

I immediately googled "Cath Kidston" to see what other iPhone cases I could find…I desperately need a new one!:)

@rachel—make sure you order on amazon—-$30 cheaper!
Ella Pretty Blog says
Love your latest purchases – especially your Kate Middleton-alike dress and Kendra Scott earrings! I'm really tempted by the turqiouse earrings now – are they heavy to wear?
[email protected] says
@ella—they are heavier than some earrings but I have worn them for hours and hours and have been absolutely fine 🙂 I love them!
Natasha xoxo says
What a haul! V, is this the black skirt you purchased at Forever 21? It looks so great on you, I had to do a search:

JCHokie says
I've missed your daily outfits! I have to say, on the hangers the clothes look alright but on you they look great! I love your style. Love the pink Zara jacket.
Ashley @ Places To Go, Things To Buy says
Ooo I love all your purchases!! I really like that striped pink blazer and great hot pink belt!
Kelly says
Love it, you found so many great deals! It's hard for me to get that lucky on a shopping trip.. Your work outfits are so inspiring too! Great post 🙂
Kelly says
Great post and finds!! Love the work outfits; very inspiring! Wish I was that lucky on a shopping trip 😛
Lilly's Style says
Amazing finds! LOVE that skirt from J.Crew.
I've been wanting that color (or purple) but can't seem to talk myself into spending the $ on it…at least not yet 🙂 I did find a purple pencil skirt at JCPenny's yesterday though, for $30, so at least I can cross one thing of my list.
Megan says
You have such a great eye. Some of those things I wouldn't give a second glance to on the hanger, like the BCBG dress or the JCrew cardigan but they look incredible on you!
[email protected] says
megan—that is always why I try everything on 🙂 you ever know, right!?
lilly—i used to hate spending a lot on one item…but when it's as classic as a pencil skirt, you can't go wrong!
Schnelle Couture says
You got some amazing pieces! I love that J Crew skirt, the BCBG dress, those heels from Target were such a great deal, and those F21 necklaces are so pretty. I can't wait to see the F21 blouse in an OOTD because I can't figure out how to make them look right on me. I also have a pink, neutral, and dark purple obsession/rut that I'm in at the moment too.
littlebeaniebear says
That iPhone case is too cute! My friend is looking for a new one so I sent her the info.
Michelle says
hi veronika! you have such fantastic taste, i love pretty much everything you picked up. i'm super in love with the zara dress! what a beautiful color!
Mrs. Hoppy says
Love everything you found!
Elena @ The Art of Making a Baby says
I love the MYHABIT dress you got ( and I love MYHABIT too).
This is some kick ass haul!
The green/teal dress is gorgeous too.
And while I am not a cardigan person, I love the way the J crew cardigan looks on you
Di says
Wow. So much stuff! Love it all! I love the Kendra Scott Danielle's. I've got 3 pairs and need an intervention before I go buy pair number 4.
Noot says
the bcbg dress is to die for!! and I'll have to try the royal blowout, looks promising!
illy says
wow..very nice haul! u got some beautiful pieces indeed.
could you pls tell me which Forever 21 in houston u prefer to shop at? i go to the one in memorial mall n i rarely find the things i like.
looking gorgeous as ususal xoxox
[email protected] says
@illy—the only one i DO like is memorial city and the one in friendswood 🙂
Laura says
That blazer is so adorable! I love it! Super cute piece. That Orgins moisturizer sounds pretty great, I'm going to keep it in mind for the next time I need one!
graciepie says
WOW that was a lot of stuff! Love the striped blazer. I wish I had a Zara near me. Also want to try the Royal blow out. I am also a HUGE fan of that hair spray, I try to buy it only on sale though since its more expensive and i use a ton. Target shoes are such a tease! I wear 11's which are hard to find usually. When i come across them at target I want to buy up every pair ( and because they are so cheap) In the end I have buyers remorse because they dont last long and tend to be uncomfortable. I need quality of quantity I guess!
Khanh says
What a great haul! I loved everything you picked out. Especially the Zara dress. Can you tell me if it is more green like on the Zara website? I love the color in your photos, so I am hoping it is more teal like rather then green. Thanks!

[email protected] says
@khanh—I would say it's a true green—the photo I posted is a pretty true depiction of the color…it's not reall teal though…there is another dress on the zara site that is a dark teal that is also very pretty..but the one I got is more green, not teal…but my pic is a truer depiction of the color than the zara website where it looks a bit…brighter.
Lindsay says
Great finds!! That J.Crew cardigan looks so comfortable – definitely great for cooler weather.
I'm obsessing over the new Essie collection and I want "carry on" so soooo badly but I'm on a major budget these days and nail polish isn't fitting in 🙁
Summer says
Wow! Love all the new stuff! I'm just amazed at how much you're able to shop and you said that's not even everything. You must have a lot more disposable income than most of us 😛

[email protected] says
@Summer— I wouldn't say that! I was on a shopping ban for a month while we were buying our home so I kind of bought more than usual the following month. I think everyone has different financial priorities. Some people have really expensive hobbies or they don't have a lot of disposable income because they bought a very expensive home or cars. It seems like a lot when I post one massive haul like this, but really many of the pieces cost less than $20.
Andi says
Great finds!!! That BCBG dress and the J. Crew cardi are both so perfect on you, like made for you. I Love everything!
*Anna* says
love it all! Great finds!
Ali says
Love the J. Crew cardigan! Do you have a link for it? Tried looking on the website and didn't see it. I would love to have it!
[email protected] says
@ali—the sweater is from the Outlet which I don't think you can find online.
Melanie says
I love everything you got!! I really love the Kate Middleton dress. I have been trying to find dresses like that. It's gorgeous! YAY for Zara!! I'm a little obsessed with that store lately!! 🙂 xoxo
Melissa Oholendt says
I think I love you and your style.
gigiofca says
I always love your beauty picks. Thanks for sharing 🙂
Steph/Goober Monkey says
Where did you purchase the Origins Secret Oil from? I've never seen an Origins store here in Orlando.
I am personally on a huge stripe kick right now, so I oohed over a lot of your striped new things! Gorgeous!!
[email protected] says
@steph—I got the zero oil at the Origins store but it is available online.
🙂
Sheila says
Loves: your pink belt, Jcrew skirt, and those heels from Target are awesome. They look high end, IMO. Also love the JCrew cardi and the striped blazer 🙂 Have you tried Orginas VitaZing moisturizer? I have heard raves about it…I've never tried an Origins product but I am pretty oily so thanks for the mini review.
Nicole says
I got the origins zero oil after reading this! Works great! Thanks!
[email protected] says
nicole—I am glad you enjoy it as much as I do 🙂
Katie says
Is there any way you could let me know which Amazon seller you got your case from? I am having trouble finding a seller with good feedback and Cath Kidston cases!
[email protected] says
katie- the seller is case works, I believe
