May Wardrobe Updates & June Planning

I was frivolous this month - and went a little overboard on the shoes. I do love the ones that I bought, but let's be honest, I don't need anymore shoes. I'm on a shoe no-buy from now until the Fall. As always, linking up with Fran from franish :)

MAY PURCHASES

1. Aritzia Kent Blazer - $85 - on sale now for $80
2. Sperry Harlow booties - $60, but paid $0 because of credit card rewards :)
3. Old Navy Gladiator Wedge Sandals - $24
4. Old Navy T-Strap Sandals - $5 on sale!

TOTAL: $114 

Still under budget, but more than I would have liked to spend ideally! 

I'm really enjoying the Aritzia blazer. It's a longer, looser fitting blazer than something I'd normally wear to an interview. This might sound silly, but I feel really edgy when wearing it! I wasn't sure about the purchase when I received it though. The sleeves are really wide, and I would never wear it without the sleeves rolled up.

As for the shoes - like I said, I love them. Really, I love any pair of shoes that I buy, but I really shouldn't be buying shoes. The t-strap sandals are really lightweight and great for when I'm running out of the house since they're so easy to slip on. They're also perfect for throwing in my bag for a day that I need to wear heels.

The strappy gladiator sandals are another love. I've worn them in several outfits so far, and they're proving to be quite versatile. I love that they've got a slight heel to them, which lengthen my short legs. It's a touch more grown up than if I had purchased a flat sandal.

The desert style wedge boot I bought from Amazon were really just a purchase I had been mulling for a while. I really like the style, even though I think (?) they were trendy a year ago? They were tough on the feet the first day I wore them, but they're quite comfortable now and perfect for colder days. They'll be a workhorse this Fall. I'm glad I got them in the grey, since I think they'll show less dirt and go along with more of the clothes that I have.

JUNE WANTS

I'm listing them here as wants because I definitely don't need these things. But I've been thinking about Everlane all month and they've come out with so many different lines of clothing lately. I don't particularly want any of the new lines, but having come to the site for them, I browsed and have my eye on a few things. These will probably be spread over two months and spill over to July as well. 

1. The Ryan Tank in Heather Grey

2. The Sleeveless Dress in Light Denim

3. The Sleeveless in Light Denim

4. The Silk Tank Dress in Grey
