quest for roses & green booties!

I spotted these green booties in Target, 
& have been searching for them in my size for a few months now,
my sister & mom found them at their Target!
#missionaccomplished!








What I Wore: glasses- Rivet & Sway, button up {under}- store in Denver, CO, necklace- Love Always by SD, earrings- hand-me-down from mom, sweater- Red Dress Boutique , pants & boots- Target, bag- Rebecca Minkoff



Wore this for a fab day of teaching the youth of America,
the day the yearbook people came in to "catch me in my element"

& then to the Vault Brewing in Yardley, PA {which is probably more accurately "me in my element"}

Where I fell in love with this art that is for sale,
I want the one on the right,
love the city scape in the background.
Hoping to add this to my bedroom soon!

I recently framed and hung my amazing pug & bully prints that my big from my sorority got me! 

& I framed and hung my artwork that a student made my from last year,
which features me as a superhero surrounded by all the topics we discuss in biology!

LOVE IT!

for this weeks "Mani Monday" link up I have a bit of a review,
I am wearing Essie's "Belugaria" from the Holiday 2013 Encrusted Treasures collection.
I read a lot of reviews about how it is very rough and hard to work with, 
Overall I enjoy the color and the look of it but it is a hard rough texture that falls off when it gets caught 
 Not for everyone that is for sure...

Still loving my Rebecca Minkoff score from this November's Sample Sale,
isn't she lovely?

Happy Monday!

Sunday Shopping!

Perhaps the end to a five year saga,
I originally blogged about in Feb 2011 & have loved it ever since!
But for the price tag of $328 I never could pull the trigger.
I tried many times to get it on sale, & most recently tried {unsuccessfully} to get it on PoshMark

I FINALLY got the Emma clutch from Kate Spade!
I had three people contact me to tell me that the Emma clutch was re-released as part of the surprise sale!
I literally screamed! 

I did get the Emma Cosmetic Clutch on Ebay out of despair, 
& the Emma notebook from the Kate Spade in Princeton! 
 Collection is finally complete! 
So excited!

Another awesome purchase that I have been wanting for many years is the Candy Yum Yum lipstick from MAC!
Great excuse to purchase it when I made a return at Macy's!



My first MAC product! 
So bright & perfect!

I also picked up this zebra print vest- it was 75% off clearance- making it $19 {& used a gift card!}

I also loved {but didn't purchase} his Karen Scott blouse, so summery, reminded me of a picnic!

Then I had to make a return at Home Goods,
The Home Goods in Princeton always has an impressive set up when you walk in,
this $2,000 train is no exception!


I also loved this ghost chair!
One day I will own this for my makeup station in the attic closet.

I also loved this chevron mirror,
would be perfect for the stairs going down in my house!

& this lamp was too interesting!

Then I found this puppy display of bullies!

& I had to pick up this mug for my sister!

too cute & looks like her new puppy Ellie!


I also got my sister these awesome Breaking Bad earrings from SleepyMountain on Etsy!

I also wanted this anchor sweater from Old Navy,
I will have to go back & pick it up!

& I always love their nerdy Hello Kitty merchandise! 

I also can't wait to get my "Press for Champagne" frame for my gallery wall in the attic!
{from Trays Chic}

Happy Sunday Shopping!

Preparing to watch the NY Rangers take on the NJ Devils in Yankee Stadium for the outdoor game!
Let's go Rangers!
