Lovin' Cheetah Print

I have to come to realize that this cheetah print scarf has become one of my favorite items to wear. I can easily say that I am crazy for anything cheetah print! Now, let's not go to over-board with it, I haven't been a crazy lady yet and worn all my cheetah printed things together and let's hope I don't. A hint of cheetah print is just what I need to spice an outfit up!

Oh Hey There, Tory!

 Hey guys, so I am back in the Windy City, home sweet home, it was bittersweet leaving. I missed my bed so much  and you wouldn't believe how swollen my feet got from walking all over New York City! But that didn't stop me from wearing these new beauties! I finally got my Tory Burch Reva flats. 
Let me know if you guys want a review on them!?

Shopping On Fifth Ave.

Need I say more? I had a great day shopping, although my wallet thinks otherwise. But I can't help it plus I have to give myself some credit, I did an ok job trying to save... (I could have saved more) but I had to bend the rules at times. 
I loved it all,  I was so excited I was able to go to Tiffany's and Bergdorfs Goodman . I am going home a very very happy girl!

Here are a few pictures:




Oh and I love this building and one day I will be able to afford to purchase a LV purse! 


Happy Thursday!

In The City That Doesn't Sleep

New York sure does live up to the expectations of a city that never sleeps. To my surprise everything around Time Square closed late! No complaints here, because who wouldn't want Starbucks or go shopping until 1am. 

Anyways, I just recently got these pants from J.crew on their summer sale. They are similar to their Pixi pants, however I got these on sale for 20 dollars!    These pants were very flattering and comfortable, it's a win/win situation.

Lusting Over: Monogram Jewelry

Which to choose, which to choose. I am definitely making an investment on some personalized jewelry. I have my eyes set on the classic monogram necklace. I have seen so many fellow bloggers rockin' this, and it looks fabulous. Although the price for it makes me wait just a little longer, the one I want to get is from Max and Chloe and it's $160! EEP! So let the saving begin!

Another great place to get these beauties are from some Etsy shops for half the price, any recommendations?
Happy Tuesday!

Orange You Glad

Hey friends, so let's talk about the colored denim I have on, they are so comfy and they feel great especially because I got them on sale at J.crew. Now,now we all know I have a serious issue when it comes to that place. But I could not turn away $23 dollar jeans, so there! I know it's tough buying bright denim at the end of the summer season but odds are; I sure will wear them again next year!

Have You Heard The Fantastic News?

Well, if you haven't heard it yet, I am here to tell you all some fab news. Now I am sure you all love Target and spending all your money there. I can't help but to spend at least 40 or 60 dollars when I am there whether it's make up or some cute shoes, (Target:1 Eliza:0) 
Anyways, Target has always collaborated with some type  of brand during the holiday season. Like Rodarte or Missoni but this time around they are collaborating with....wait for it....Neiman Marcus! 
It was like music to my ears when they listed some of the designers who will part of this like Tory Burch, Marc By Marc Jacobs, Diane von Furstenberg, Carolina Herrera, Oscar de La Renta and the list goes on. 

So get ready to rumble, because I am sure when the time comes everyone and their mom will be waiting in line, because I know I am!

Skirts & Wind Don't Mix

I have lived in Chicago for most of my life, & you would think that I would know better then to wear a flowy skirt in the Windy City...think again! It never occurs to me until I am out there, pulling my skirt down. Wonder how long it will take until I get the point. LOL

Beachy Outfit

Hey there everyone! So here's the deal, I got this tank about 2 months ago and said I was gonna sooo wear it at the beach & how many times have I gone to the beach? ONCE, and did I wear it then? Nope, so I had no option but to wear it out. I know, I know what was I thinking, but it was a 'relax day' for me.(There, that's my excuse)

This is what I would wear to the beach...but in my case to the park! LOL

On A Summer Night

 Chiffon has been on my fav list for a while now, and this dress is perfection especially for the price off $15.50 at Forever 21. I can literally spend hours in in there but on this trip, I found that dress right away so it was an easy shopping day because after all it was exactly what I was looking for. I ended up wearing this the day of my boyfriend's birthday.
