In Her Natural Habitat

This outfit is from last weekend. Yes, I took this photo with my phone in the restroom of a Mexican restaurant. I figured it was a good idea since I hadn't shown you guys my Sunday Splurge over the knee boots with an outfit of mine. So here's what I put together:

 

Unfortunately, since the boots were a splurge, the outfit doesn't stay under $100, but it does feature some really inexpensive pieces.

Jacket: Sears, 6 years ago, I have no idea how much I paid for it, but it was likely under $20.

Lace Tank: Charlotte Russe, $10

Black Cami: Kohl's, $6

Jeans: Macy's, $24.99

Necklace: Charlotte Russe, $8.50

Crossbody Bag: MetroPark, GIFT!

Boots: Macy's, I paid $69.00, but look! Now they're marked down to $48.30!

In my last OOTD post, I had failed to find a dress for an upcoming beach wedding in Mexico. I had spent nearly three hours shopping for one and came home with a totally different outfit instead. I decided this Saturday to try again. I didn't really have the energy to spend another three hours shopping, but I sucked it up and headed to the mall.

Lo and behold, I found my dress at my first stop, Macy's. I tried on two dresses, one I liked, and one I liked more, but it was a little off in the bra cups. I decided to size up and see how that worked... and whaddya know, it worked!

Here's the dress I found:

 

It is this XOXO dress, which was $79.00 on sale for 40% off, so I took it home for around $50 after tax. The necklace-thing was just hanging with it and I really wasn't sure what it was. I tied it around my waist, but that looked silly, so I tied it around my neck. I only now confirmed that I did the correct thing when I found the dress online. I'm not sure if I'll wear the necklace-thing for the wedding. I think I'd prefer a long layered gold necklace like this. 

I still have to figure out what shoes I'll wear. Any suggestions?

(I was going to add another outfit to this post, but I think I'll save it for another day!)

I don't do many outfit posts, mainly because I don't have enough items in my closet to a daily or semi-daily outfit post. I wear a lot of things over and over again. I am not much of a fashionista, that's why I just play one on the internet with my under $100 posts which are pretty much just wish lists for me.

Anyway, it must be your lucky day because I do have an OOTD post for you!

 

My husband says that leopard cardigan looks like a gramma sweater. I say, who cares? I found it at Macy's for 65% off. Yes, please. The yellow sweater I just nabbed at Target yesterday. My socks are black and gray striped with black lace at the tops. They are my favorite. The camera isn't part of my outfit, though some might disagree as it's become a go to accessory for me. (Also, I'm too lazy to set up the tripod.)
