LDW Steals & Month in Instagram: August

I was one of the fortunate ones who had a half day on Friday to kick start my long weekend. I had a doctor's appointment and after some not so hot news, I was in DYER need of some Retail Therapy. Dr. D was a doll and took me straight to the mall (The man is a gem and I'm beyond lucky to have him) to get my shop on. I scored some great deals and had to limit myself since I'm headed to NYC next month!

1 | 2 | 3

1. Francesca's is ALWAYS my go to when I'm in need of something flirty and fun. I scored this chevron dress in turquoise blue (not pictured online) and a great new salmon dress which they just got in stock (also not online).

2. This leather skirt from H&M has been on my eye ever since I made my Fall wishlist post. It was a great buy and I'm obsessed with it!

3. It took me a while to jump on the chambray band wagon but I finally caved and got this cute top

August was a CRAZY month for me to say the least. Event season has officially started back up which means what little free time I once had is pretty much non-existent until Halloween. It's a great thing I absolutely love my job!

 

1. Having some Mustache "The Stash"  wine with the rooms
