Friday Fashion Finds

Thank you all for the sweet birthday comments on my last post, you made my day!

Next week I will share with you the fantastic birthday dinner I enjoyed with John Paul, his brother James and fiancé Sara (check out her blog Wine and Blue, you won’t regret it!)

Since no birthday is complete without a little self-indulgence, I thought I would share my recent H&M purchases that I am so tickled over!

It all began when I saw Kirin’s post on Closet Cast.

I love her clean and simple yet funky style.

How cool are those brogues? They make a statement without trying too hard. Paired with an otherwise simple outfit, they steal the show. I knew I had to have them. I got busy on H&M online (Charlotte’s first H&M store just opened YESTERDAY at Northlake Mall!!)

This is what I got:

shoes

Don’t these look European to you? Originally $79.94, I was able to snag them at $59.96 with a coupon code from RetailMeNot

(I never shop online without first checking that site!)

sweater

 I am always on the lookout for a cozy and functional sweater. This angora blend steal is only $35 and also comes in green, red and grey! I was slightly concerned that it would be itchy (I have zero tolerance for itchy fabrics) but it is so soft. I envision it dressed up with my faux leather pants and dressed down with dark denim and boots.vest

My furry friend! I have a mild obsession with fur. While I already posses a fur vest, it’s hip level and a touch formal. I wanted something I could throw on and not fuss over too much. This faux fur cropped vest at $35.00 is selling out very fast! It runs a tad small, so I suggest sizing up, especially if you have a fuller chest or broad shoulders.

I am thrilled with my H&M purchases and can’t wait to check out the new Charlotte store!

One more online shopping tip (which is especially helpful for holiday shopping) that I wanted to share with you is Ebates! In addition to RetailMeNot, I ALWAYS go through Ebates to get a percentage of my purchase back in the form of a check. It’s truly amazing. Free money.  Use my referral link below to check it out!

I hope you all have a great weekend! I will be back next week with lots of treats!
