My Week of Fashion OOTD posts...
Here are some of my #ootd posts from IG and Twitter.
I found these cute tunic babydoll dresses last fall and ordered a tan one, it arrived damaged so the owner of the eBay shop was kind enough to let me keep the damage one, which I sewed the seam that was undone, and she sent me this one to replace for free. Love when a store has amazing customer service and goes above everything to make sure their customer is satisfied. I could not find an exact match but below found a close one in navy. If you search Umgee Babydoll Tunic lots of styles will pop up and all different prices.
Similar design in Navy
I happened to get very lucky one day when walking the shopping plaza by my house and one of the little boutiques was having a sidewalk sale, I found my white crochet and fringe detail vest marked down for $7.99. I tried to find a good bargain deal but had a hard time even finding this style vest. Right now the fringe all over vests are trending, which I ordered one while searching I found for under $25 on eBay. I saw they were trending and selling for over $35 up to $50 so grabbed one that was $22 with shipping. Love it.
My sandals are knee high MIA black gladiators. I had a gift certificate I won for PacSun so I scooped up two pairs of these and some feather print Converse, along with a few cute graphic tees and tanks. I found links for the same sandals below in both brown and black. I have a similar dress to the one above in tan and brown with a red, blue multi colored Navajo style print on the front chest area that look amazing with the brown sandals or brown boots.
My necklace I was able to find almost the exact same one at Maurices.com below
Last up my bracelet, purchased from my local Forever 21 store. As you know their stock sells out fast and is always changing. I could not find the same exact one, mine is a stretchy silver turkish looking bracelet with little bells on the outside. I found this pretty etched silver bangle
My wrist party is Alex and Ani bangles, I have a retired feather bangle, the charm feather, buddha charm, monopoly dog, and pineapple charm. I also am wearing one of my PuraVida Bracelets for a splash of color. Be sure to check out PuraVida and use my code MelissaSep10 for a discount when checking out. They are a great company donating money to many charities and proceeds from the sales of all the items helps employ local Costa Rican Artisans.
More Karma Less Drama tee by LeMotto. Black and white pencil skirt from Forever 21, statement necklace for Walmart for $5, Rock & Republic heels ( best heels ever so comfortable), Alex and Ani charm bangle and heart beaded stretch bracelet, mixed with some gold plain bangles and my Juicy Couture Locket and Key bracelet that was a gift from my mom.
My gorgeous necklace is a pink agate slice from Adam Rabbit Jewelry on Etsy. She had a $10 mystery necklace sale where you would receive a mystery necklace valued up to $30. I have many pieces by her and love them all, this one is no exception it is beautiful. She does not stock this exact same necklace in her shop but one of my favorite stores does have the same stone but with gold chain
My tee shirt was a special order from Girl Monday Apparel on Etsy. They have lots of fun and humorous sayings on many styles of tees and tanks, we all know I love graphic tees and tanks. I have found so many amazing shops that I love.
My BillaBong Women's tank is sold out at Pacsun.com, I did find them in stock in all sizes below
My jeans are Jcrew Boyfriend jeans and I have several pairs, they are one of favorite fit and style jeans I own, the distressing is just right and they fit amazing. Also they are made of the softest denim. I do not put these in the dryer, they are washed on delicate or my steam cleaning setting then hung to dry. Grab them while they still have some left. I got them on sale every time and just grabbed a last pair before they are all gone. Size down one size for good fit.

I'm a sweet disaster tank, feather kimono with pom pom trim, Hollister boyfriend jeans and Lacey Ryan necklace. Details below for items.
My tee is from Pony Show in Nashville, they have an Etsy store and I have to say all their graphic tees and tanks rock. Love this store and love all their other vintage items also. Great find for sure.
or some that have not read this in my previous posts, I am a Silver Jeans Co Ambassador and love this brand. My first pair of jeans they sent me when becoming an ambassador for their brand we're these amazing Boyfriends jeans I had wanted to order for a few months. I have over 20 pairs of Silver Jeans and the only style I didn't own were the boyfriend style. These are now one of my favorite go to pairs of jeans whether cropped or worn ankle length. I love them with everything I wear them with. Check the out in the link below.
My purse is my everyday bag, I got it from the Christmas in July 50% off sale at Bohemian Vibe Boutique. It is currently sold out and I am looking for others that are comparable. They did have a brown in stock if you want to check the link below. It is an amazing bag and I get compliments every day, people always think it was way more expensive. I paid $30 for it retails for $60, best $30 I ever spent lol. I have used it daily unless I need a brown bag or something smaller. It comes with a wristlet style pouch that is attached to one of the straps, then has fringe detail on the sides love love love.
Above tee is also from Pony Show same link as above...
My amazing shoes from Sophie May Shop in Utah.
Gypsy soul floral tee and Not all who wander tee in blue from Boho Circus. You can find both tees at
Gypsy Soul tee by Boho Circus with a Lace kimono from PacSun, Gunne vintage 70's floral skirt and Turkish coin necklace I got off Ebay for under $10.
Above link for the Gypsy Soul tee is for a Unisex Medium please be sure to get your correct size.
My kimono is sold out couldn't find but you can find many styles similar on eBay.
I am the queen of finding items that are really on trend or hot selling items for less. I saw these necklaces two years ago in a high end catalog for $75-95 and matching bracelet was $50-65. I got the necklace and bracelet for $10 with shipping. They are made very well, the material is thick and I have owned my necklace for over a year and worn it many times nothing has broken or happened. My bracelet I have had a couple months less than the necklace and same thing both are solid well made pieces, very heavy. Love them and can't imagine anyone who paid the high end price because these really look identical.
Not all who wander tee, Boho Circus
Also available in other sizes and colors, this link is for the unisex Medium.
Necklace is from one of my favorite Etsy Jewelry shops, Fawning in love. It was a one time item but she does have similar items and lots of other great pieces everyone should check out. Make sure to pass by her shop and show some love.
Hope you enjoyed my week of fashion and hope the links help you find the items I wore that you like, trying to make it easier for everyone who reads the blog.
Saw your post on Instagram which led me to your blog. I like what I see and I really am enjoying your blog. Great use of social media and I really love all the pictures. I think it is great that you include a link for the items you are showing in the photos along with the descriptions. This is a great way to hell advertise for brands you love which will lead to getting more brands to want you to wear their products. Great work and you can tell from older posts to more recent posts that you have become more involved in growing you blog. Keep up the work and it will pay off. Kudos for all your hard work and time you have invested. I wish you the best.
