*Moonstone Magic gifted the rings featured in this post, but all opinions are my own.
Last Friday one of my best friends got married!! I decided to wear my new Who What Wear x Target dress for the occasion. I paired it with the Mejuri loop earrings designed by Jamie-Lee, color blocked sandals and my quintessential wedding bag by Marc Jacobs! I've had the bag since January 2011 after winning a gift card to Net-a-Porter in a Christmas giveaway.
I also got two adorable rings from www.MoonstoneShop.com and decided they would be a perfect simple accessory! They also pair wonderfully with my multitude of silver rings. I now have a ring for every finger, with a few extras, and these will be joining my everyday set because of their simplicity.
Dress: Who What Wear x Target, Shoes: Cole Haan (Amazon), Bag: Marc by Marc Jacobs (Net-a-Porter), Earrings: Mejuri loop earrings, Rings c/o Moonstone Magic - Moonstone Ring - Moon Eclipse, Moonstone Ring - Petite Double
This month I aimed to not buy anything outside my trip to Italy. I almost made it the whole way though. At the beginning of the month I bought a pair of earrings that my friend Jamie-Lee designed for Mejuri because they're super pretty and I don't really have any non-stud earrings.
I also got an amazing deal on boots at DSW. They were 80% off $79 and then a further 20% off making them $12...how could I resist?! But now they'll be sitting in my closet until next Fall. They reminded me of a pair of Gianvito Rossi boots (and pumps) which was a nice bonus!
In Italy I wanted to buy a designer bag or shoes but sticker shock got me and I "behaved" and spent about $300 (€290) on Gucci sunglasses. They're listed at $400 on the US site so I did good.
After Italy, disaster struck. I went to Target with a friend and bought a bodysuit, shirt dress and tee. THEN that same day I found out Coach Outlets had the Disney collaboration for sale. I wanted a bag when they originally released at Coach but they were a bit too pricey. I bought a cute Mickey ear bag in tan (wanted red but they didn't have it.)
To make matters worse, the Net-a-Porter sale started last week. It's my favorite sale of the year and there's only been one time where I haven't bought something. The first day of the sale I spent all morning going through every page adding things to my wish list. I haven't gotten anything yet, but it's only a matter of time.
THE (modified) RULES
Clothes:
Gifted from Brands:
Total spent in May: $600 - $300 not counting the sunglasses
Total spent in 2017: $746 - $446 not counting the sunglasses
Total spent with Christmas/advertising money included: $995 - $695 not counting sunglasses
*the money for the sunglasses came out of my vacations savings account rather than "regular" money
