faves for friday: highlighter legs & statement necklaces

What I Wore: glasses- Bonlook.com, top- thirfted, necklace- baublebar, neon pants- gap, cap toe flats- from recent Target haul.



 always needed a pair of pants the same color as a butterfly. 

loving my first purchase from baublebar!

Barry investigated my new necklace & approves. 

I have been on a huge neon kick lately. And soon I will literally be able "to kick" with my latest neon purchase these babies: 

Apart from neon, I have been developing a huge statement necklace obsession! 
baublebar bubble strand / Jewelmint Avalon Collar / Gypsy Warrior / EllandEmm Emmie Highlighter necklace

The baublebar bubble strand warn above is one of my latest purchases but of course there is a list: 

You may have realized my developing statement necklace obsession from my previous strong desire to Spike The Punch from this faves for friday,
well it hasn't gotten any better:

this is the one I am holding out for: aqua & periwinkle


 they are just so pretty. 

Other statement necklaces that I am loving:

 I refer to this necklace as the signature blogger bubble bling: Cheerfully Charmed
{may have to order these soon- among other things... can't get enough of Gypsy Warrior}


Of course I have been obsessed with Stella & Dot 
{these have been on my Wish/Shopping List for a while now}

& for a huge statement:

Another perk of big beautiful statement necklaces?
I hung up my baublebar beauty, & display my other jewelry in a pink sparkly tray that that amazing watermelon betsey johnson clutch came in. 
{& yes I finally got Kate Spade Twirl! for an amazing $25 at Ross}

Well I just love these pants. 
The reviews on Old Navy were mixed saying they fit weird, but they may be my new favorite!
The fiancé picked me up from work yesterday & had quite a lot of beer brewing stuff in the car. 
I said, "Oh you went shopping, now I don't feel guilty to tell you that I also bought these pants in green"
too cute to pass up for $20 {Old Navy}


Anyways, I wore this yesterday to meet my first in real life blogger Tara from mixmatchfashion!

She hosted an arbonne event & I was super excited to meet a fellow blogger!
I ordered the blush in berry


Here are my other picks from arbonne:

want{ed} wednesday

If you follow me on instagram (@emmasglasses) you know that I did a bit of damage at Target yesterday...
 Yes, that vomit of shoes on my bed are the damages. 
I am obsessed with cap toe flats & they were only $7! Finish every outfit with a little shine for $7? 
Yes. Please! {had to get them in every color}
& I found the stripped Webster for Target flats that were on my list when this line made its debut for only $10! 
The pointy toe leopard and white spotted flats were $20 each but they are too adorable on to pass up!

If you are counting, yes that means I brought home 7 pairs of shoes. 7. I know. I had to break the news to the fiancé when that bag came in the house. 
to which he replied, "so 7 in means 7 out, right?"
yes. sure honey. never.

Oh and see that little leopard hat on that check out line, yes, Target answered by deepest desires {for only $12} before I blew all my money on this one:
I was searching for a leopard accent hat in Mexico, but took home another beauty.
Now I need another exotic trip to rock my new found love.

perhaps a shorter list, the items I liked but didn't get:
Really adorable tassel loafers but if I picked out anymore shoes I wouldn't have been able to face myself this morning. 
& a not needed but loved hello kitty fedora. 

 I also spruced up the living room with new curtains 
{the old ones were stained from Barry's attention getting behavior when we first got Maggie, yes there was a leg lift involved. I attempted to wash them and one melted and the other was perfectly fine, weird.} 

& a new carpet!! The old one we had had been through the ringer & was impossible to clean, every time we touched it there would be huge white spots. {see old living room here}

A welcomed / much needed change.

Other recent purchases:
This navajo print top from threadsence $36, 
my first baublebar purchase $26 {sign up for $10 off your first order!},
 first saw this skull top in the chictopia shop but didn't have enough points, so I ordered it anyway from chicnova $12 {get 20% off your first order!}

Also finally found a matte top coat:
transform all my polishes to matte with a swipe of a brush
can't wait to try it! 

I also couldn't resist these:
Of course the pug one is mine & I got the other for my sister who is addicted to dim sum {from fivebelow}

Any new purchases you have made to make me feel less like a shop-a-haulic?
