Ti Amo Thursdays

Oh my, its already Thursday! Hope you all have been having a good week. Here's what piqued my interest this week.

I follow many fashion blogs but my favorite is Erika's Cafe Fashionista. Not only is she a fantastic writer, she has amazing fashion sense and is one of the sweetest girls I've ever encountered on the web. She has a weekly feature entitled Thrifty Thursday which featured this gorgeous blazer from Forever 21:

And for only $22.80 its definitely getting added to the after tax season shopping list!

Another thing to look forward to after tax season is Las Vegas. My husband and I along with a couple of friends are trekking all the way from Cincinnati to Sin City for a 4 day weekend to celebrate my husband's birthday. My Kodak digital camera is over 3 years old which as we know in electronic age is ancient history, so I've been shopping for a new point-n-shoot to catalog our crazy wolf pack adventures. I haven't made up my mind completely but one of the contenders is:

Nikon - Coolpix 14.2-Megapixel Digital Camera - Silver from Best Buy

To say I take a lot of pictures is the understatement of the century so I really need to find a camera that is easily portable but still takes amazing shots.

And as I started thinking of Vegas, I imagined a sunny day laying by the pool at our hotel (the Mirage) sipping a cocktail and possibly wearing this (if only I had the body!):

Carmen Marc Valvo Retro One-Piece from Victoria's Secret

I think this retro silhouette is simply stunning. Its sexy but not trashy. I really need to get back in the gym..

Enough about me, what do you have your eyes on loves?

Thanks to Forever 21, Best Buy and Victoria's Secret for the pictures!



Trending Now

So back in 2004, way back when I met my husband, polka dots and initials were the rage. I remember carrying my polka dot "J" purse proudly. So it makes me gleefully excited to say that one of the current trends for spring is polka dots!!!! I mean, in my opinion, there is no other print that can be sexy, classy, and cute on all ages for all occasions. I've listed a few of my favorites for the frugalista in all of us!

This little top would be perfect for either lunch out with your girlfriends or date-night with the boy!

These adorable flats would look great with both a skirt or pair of skinnies, no?
