Some Shopping Results


So I got to go shopping the other day, and I'm wearing some of the things I purchased!  I took your advice girls when it came to basics for any wardrobe.  Thank you, by the way!


Can you believe I didn't already own a white button down shirt?  I know that's kind of sad!  I found this three  quarter length sleeve one from Forever 21.


I already own 2 pencil skirts (one of which needs taken in quite a few inches so I haven't been able to wear it lately) , so I was looking for a skirt that was a solid color and that could work with a lot of different tops.  I found this one from Forever 21 as well.  It came with this red belt.  I can choose to wear the skirt without the belt if red doesn't go with the top I'm wearing.  But gray can go with most colors, can it not?  I was really trying to buy things that can be worn in many different ways, so it helps with having more options with what to wear!  


I like how this skirt has pockets!!  I noticed myself throughout the day putting my hands in my pockets!  Not too many skirts have that, but I like the fact that this one does!


I also purchased a comfy striped t-shirt from Charlotte Russe and two lacy long sleeve sheer tops, one cream colored and one black.  I bought both a black and white tank to go underneath each.  I've seen girls were these lace tops with just a bra underneath and showing the rest of the skin where the lace doesn't cover, but that's just not for me!  I would not feel comfortable showing that much skin.....

Here's a black and white picture, though I'd give that a try:


What do you think, more black and white?

I also got a few other things that weren't mentioned above, I will be sure to show you girls soon!  I was very pleased with my findings!
