This little pretty may or may not be the reason I've put myself on a sudden self-imposed shopping ban. I couldn't resist though! My Neiman Marcus sales associate has me on her email distribution list and she sent us pictures of all these cute little Chanel accessories. I figured this could round out my humble little collection? She's just too adorable. And worth the ban.

Yep, I loved that striped midi skirt so much, I decided to get it in the second color. (Pre-shopping ban, of course.) I do love this color, but there's something extra versatile about the black and white one. Not complaining though - I'm happy to have this figure flattering skirt in grey and black! I tucked a faux wrap shirt into this skirt, and it's amazing how this really could pass for a dress. And the layered necklace and studded heels give me the edginess I like.

Thank you! The best part is that it's just one single necklace! No fuss!
DeleteOkay I love this outfit! I just posted the blog where you are featured (http://www.thearnoldsblogalot.com/2014/05/spring-must-haves-trench-coat.html). The thing I said about you is that you ALWAYS accessorize so well. This is no exception. Love your new addition and the details on those shoes! I have a similar skirt and like how you styled it. Good inspiration.

not sure why that spacing is so strange....sorry!
DeleteThanks so much again for the feature, lady! Very sweet.
DeleteAgain with the trickery! I thought this was a dress again until you reminded me it was a midi skirt. I knew you bought it but did not make the connection because this look says dress. That's a pretty nifty skill. Very pretty wallet, too. Now I understand the ban!! ha ha! Off to go check out Amy Ann's post on you. :)

Haha!! This is a ninja skirt I tell ya! Someone just complimented me in the kitchen about my nice dress! The skirt is great! So thank you!
DeleteAnd yes, the ban! :) worth it tho!!! <3
I need to invest in a chanel badly, even their wallets are so classic!
ReplyDeleteEleventh & Sixteenth
It's definitely an investment! And the prices only go up as the years pass…And they have such a great re-sale value!
DeleteI love bags but have yet to own a Chanel. Love your wallet. Your outfit is very pretty and the skirt is so figure flattering.

DeleteI need to put myself on a shopping ban too!! But this Chanel bag was definitely worth it!! You make it look so dainty and cute!!
ReplyDeleteJenna from Visions of Vogue
She's definitely adorable! <3
DeleteDon't you love it (hate it) when your sales person has you on speed dial about deals and new products? Such a powerful grip.
ReplyDeleteLooking awesome, as usual :)

Yes it's a blessing and a curse to have these insiders!! When I'm good, I will delete their emails before opening! But this one sucked me in! :)
DeleteI love how you accessorize your outfits!

I'm so trying not to look at the sale. Though I admit to adding stuff to my cart and then using all my strength to close the window!!
DeleteLove the wallet, it's definitely worth the ban! May is a terrible month for shopping, everywhere I look there are sales. I'll be on a self-imposed shopping ban right here with you (after I finish with these sales).
ReplyDeleteArielle from Tangled Musings
Hahahaha! This made me LOL! Good luck!!!
DeleteI knew that was the Express midi skirt but with that wrap style, colorful-printed top looks awesome as a dress. The new Channel Clutch and Patent Leather Pumps are gorgeous together. =)
ReplyDeleteI am glad I am all caught up. I never want to miss out on your amazing outfits. =)
<3 Ada.
Thanks, Ada - that is so nice of you! I appreciate the support!
DeleteAh Chanel (hearts are in my eyes now). Gorgeous, timeless clutch. That may just go on my wish list. Looking beautiful C :)
ReplyDeleteYou need it, I promise! :)
