So I think Cheap Monday jeans are so fantastic. and I was looking around the Barney’s Co-Op website and I saw these on sale for 29.99.

And so my natural response was OMGHOLYFUCK I NEED THOSE JEANS. What an awesome color! They look so fantastic! So I confirmed my size and got all excited and then Barney’s tried to charge me $12 for shipping. Fuck you, Barney’s! I am not paying $12 for $30 jeans!
I want them so bad though. Maybe i can find them somewhere else. grr

So I finally sucked it up and made 2 american apparel purchases a few weeks ago.
Cotton Spandex Two-Toned Fitted Mini Dress $32

Oh my god I love this so much. It’s so easy and flattering. If only there was occasion to wear it casually in lynchburg. It’s a little too short to just wear around town I feel. Also I like the look and idea of it without a bra the best, but when I try that it is nipple city. I will have to find a way to remedy that. Anyways, I believe this dress is flattering on most body types, so I think everyone should go buy it now yes.
Unisex Tri-Blend Short Sleeve Deep V-Neck $18

I really was planning on only buying the dress, but AA was going to charge me a ridiculous amount for shipping and I could get free shipping if I bought $50 worth of stuff so I went ahead and got this too since I had heard how amazing and comfortable it is. And oh my god it is the most amazing shirt. I got the small size (it comes in unisex sizes), but I could have stood to get the extra small and I’m tempted to buy another one with my next AA purchase. It’s so lightweight and relaxed and comfortable, but can be dressed up quite a bit and incorporated into like any outfit. Fantastic.
Now recently I saw this leotard in a picture of a girl wearing the slim slacks and a vest over it and I was like omg love.
Cotton Spandex Jersey Halter Leotard $28

I am so tempted to buy this in a color and black or gray and wear it all the time year round. I kind of like the low-cut no bra look on smallish boobz (not crazy about it on the busty model featured above). Am I crazy?
Interlock Pencil Skirt $30

I can’t find a flattering outfit photo of this skirt on AA, but I’ve had a recent obsession with high waisted skirts and have been wearing my one polka-dotted one so much that I am tempted to buy an awesome color of this AA one considering the raving reviews I have heard about it and its versatility. I’m scared though, because while I love the high-waisted skirts knee-length skirts aren’t fantastic on me because I have big swimmer’s calves. But they look so fantastic on other people I want to try them out!
Okay sorry for the huge aa binge. I got my first paycheck and I am flipping out.

So I just wanted to say that I love these shoes so much
Encinitas Crisscross Skimmer $38 at Urban

I think I haven’t bought them yet because they seem like they might look worse in real life than they do on a screen. I’ve seen other versions of these shoes around that i love way more, but nothing for a reasonable price. I really want sandals like this though. Someone please find some for me.
Also who is not surprised that Urban ripped off the Mexican Embroidered dress that has been mad popular at thrift stores and on ebay the past few months?
Lux Embroidered Mexicana Dress $78 at Urban

Thing is, seeing has I haven’t found the original to be especially flattering on me and this one has tailoring that actually shows a waist I’d consider getting it if it wasn’t ridiculously priced.
But personally, I am shocked and appalled that Urban has not come out with a version of the hipster headband clearly seen all over lastnightsparty and the cobrasnake for months now.

Or the grandma glasses that I am seriously tired of seeing on the same sites.

Seriously, Urban Outfitters, you know the rule. If Cory Kennedy does it, you should too.
