This past weekend was the Thunder Beach bike rally, so we decided to escape the beach (and the noise from the bikes) on Saturday and went outlet shopping. I was so proud of my restraint on not buying all the pretties...until I got to the Loft Outlet. And then it was all, all over. I got this beautiful dress I'm wearing, a pretty lace top, a gorgeous coral crochet pencil skirt, and a pearl necklace and bracelet. I love my finds, but I spent a bit more than I wanted to at the beginning of the month. I have a feeling I'm going to blow my May budget and it's only May 5. Yikes.
Sunday was my university's graduation. My office always pitches in to help, so I was there to take pictures and knew I needed to dress up a bit in honor of the occasion. I had a completely different outfit picked out, but as I unpacked my new goodies, I realized this dress combined with a tan cardi was straight up school colors. I knew I had to wear it. I combined it with lots of pearls and arrow necklaces since it was a chance to get a bit more fancy. This outfit is one of my absolute favorites I've put on the blog so far! Can I just wear this everyday? That wouldn't be weird, right?
