Lately I…

Lately I have not been blogging. I have so many ideas running through my head, but now that it is summer I have been a bit lackadaisical. But I have decided to start a bi weekly blog to keep me on track. It is called Lately I love,want and need. I will post bi weekly items in fashion that at the moment I love, desperately want, and absolutely need. This week will mark the first installment. I hope that by doing this, I will also post more frequently about the fashion we all love!


Lately I love… my cat eye sunglasses and white sandals.           

When the summer started I wanted to earn some extra cash by selling some clothes to Plato’s Closet and Clothes Mentor. (Clothes Mentor is for women and buy brans like New York & Company and Ann Taylor). Personally I had some good stuff they didn’t take, but they are pretty picky about quality and style. But I still made almost $60 at both stores combined.  Anyways that’s not the point. The point is A) I got these awesome sunglasses at Plato’s for $6 and B) The sandals were only $12 at Kohl's! I have been looking for cat eye glasses forever and jumped on these! These are definitely my summer staple and I also was searching for cute white sandals. I declare success!!

Lately I want… a maxi dress!
To be specific I want this maxi dress by Lauren Conrad. I love the sweet heart neckline and bold print. I am obsessed with her and her line at Kohl's! I love maxi dresses because they are perfect for summer with a cute wedge or flip flop. My only issue with buying a maxi dress is that I am so short! Standing at a meager 5''2” I fear that a maxi dress will make me look even shorter. I also fear that maxi dresses may make me look pregnant. Crazy? Probably. Legitimate? Oh yes.

Lately I need… NUDE PUMPS

 I have needed nude pumps for the longest time! Nude pumps are as important as an LBD in a girls closet. They elongate your legs which I need since I am so short!  I really like ones like these at Aldo.  My problem is my dumb wide feet! I am a devoted size 7…wide. With heels it’s the hardest because if I try and go up a half size for the width, the length to too long! It is impossible for me to find heels. But the search continues because I worry that without them my life can not go on much further. Too dramatic?
