Honeysuckle Sandals by Born

I know it's wrong, but I'm pretty much lusting after these shoes:

Aren't they gorgeous?

Metallics are so hot right now.

And they're by Born, so you know they're comfy, too- a shoe characteristic priority for any mother carrying around a little one.

Clear Skies Cloche

A hat says one of two things:

1. "I was too busy to wash my hair today".

or

2. "I'm a woman who understands fashion".

Guess which of the above this one is shouting?

Paisley Maxi dress

This is a sweet deal for such a cute summer dress:

This dress has a gorgeous print and color, and is long enough for the most modest of us.

I think this would be hot with a button up shirt or jacket, and a skinny belt.

Also, you can't beat the price.

BR Sadie Ruffle Cardigan

I love that the latest trends in women's fashion are so femimine and flirty.

It's such a refreshing change from the past 2 decades, 

and one I hope lasts for some time to come.  

I think this cardigan embodies the ruffled look beautifully:

The softness of the color, the knit of the fabric, the curve of the design....they all work together to make this sweater an essential Spring 2011 fashion staple.

Chaps Floral Empire Waist Dress

I'm a jeans girl at heart, but there is something so saucy and fashionable about a woman who wears dresses and skirts as everyday apparel.

It's difficult to find a modest, cute dress these days,so I was excited to come across this Blue Empire Waist one by Chaps:

I'm determined to dress myself up more as soon as the weather gets warmer, and I think this would be cute with the right boots or flip-flops.

Dress available at Kohls, on sale right now for $45, usually $90

Dav Rain Boots

Remember those Target boots I posted on the other day?

Forget about 'em!

These Dav boots are where.it's.at.

I think I'm in love.

I found these on zulily.com, for only $24.99, but the deal only lasts until 3/21 or until they sell out.

Endless.com has a greater selection, but is a bit more pricey.

I can't wait to splash in some rain puddles with these!

Lelli Kelly Sandals

There are little girl's shoes, and then there are Lelli Kelly's.

*Sigh*

I love these shoes.

The sparkles.  The glitz. 

The way they scream,

"HEY!  Look at me!  I belong on your daughters feet, no matter what the price tag on my box says!".  

They speak to me.  

Yes, they do.

ilovegorgeous Easter Dress

I'm drooling over this Marie Antoinette style Easter dress for girls.

It's so beautiful...

I wish I could find something similar and more affordable,

but in the meantime, I can dream.

This gorgeous skirt is the essence of spring.

I love how the boots give it some western flair; it makes me want to go for a walk in the desert.
