TGIF, kittens!

Is it sweltering where you live yet? It's supposed to be 93 here today and there's a good chance I may melt. I came prepared by wearing a loose cotton dress. I figure I can stand over a fan when no one's looking and cool off :)

 

Dress: Cynthia Rowley (via TJ Maxx)

Cardigan: Merona® Collection Women's Paige Cardigan Sweater

Michelle Obama pearls: Walmart

Shoes: Crocs Prima flats *sigh*

I picked up this cardigan at Target the other night for next to nothing - $5 out of pocket! I had a top I returned plus a 20% off Merona coupon so after all that, I was only out $5. Not bad!! I was stumped as to what to pair this with but after a few minutes of thinking about it I said, "Screw it" and threw it on w/a black dress.

This dress was a real steal also - $25 at TJ Maxx. It's hard to see in the pic but it has some adorable pleating on the front and back. I tried to snap a pic of it but it's kinda hard to see still:

Pretty cute, huh? I love that it's cotton and loose and perfect for hot and humid days.










These shoes are a total accident. If you recall a couple of years ago, I had the misfortune of leaving my beloved Prima flats in my car and they shrank like crazy. I tried to stretch 'em out but after my little science experiment, they shrank right back and became worthless to me. Well earlier today I was at Big Lots and what do I see for $10? More Primas. They didn't have black - just Easter Egg colors. I picked up the light green (celery) and passed on the purple and blue. I may go back and get another pair because these are so perfect for the yard and for stashing under my desk at work.

I didn't want a repeat of my previous experience w/these so I put them on and ran errands in them. Then I completely forgot I had them on when I took this pic - whoops! I swear I had cute black flats on earlier!!
