Coffee Break Craving: This Chambray Shirt + This Full Black Skirt


Tucked into:

D&G Full Skirt, from Farfetch.com, on sale for $145*

Belted with:


Plus 6" of added height in:


Proenza Schouler Heels


  • The chambray shirt is lovely, and I always adore my J.Crew shirts.  But I don't like to buy them full-price.  I'm waiting.

  • The full black skirt is by far the best looking full black skirt out there right now.  I was set to buy it and found out that shipping was going to cost $51 + whatever import duties/taxes the government will slap on there upon delivery. Really?!  FAIL.

  • And finally, I really shouldn't be craving anything right now - I picked up a few goodies at Zara and Forever21 this week.  Hubby has politely requested that this weekend's activities NOT include a shopping trip.  I really should oblige him....................but the Chanel Boutique called and my purse is finally ready for pick-up!  The chain had broken* and it has taken over 2 months for Chanel to fix/replace it.  Looks like we'll have to make a trip down there, sorry Hubby! =)
*Yep, the chain strap on one of my Chanel purses broke (partly my fault, wild dancing night!) - first time it's happened to me.  $60 and over 2 months later, I should have a new chain.  We'll see.

  1. haha... that doesn't count though, right? My husband refuses-- flat out refuses-- to shop with me. Which is fine, because I actually prefer being alone. I get more done. And if he were there I'd never be allowed to buy anything. haha :)

  3. Well picking up your Chanel purse doesn't count because its not something new ;) Its just getting out of the shopping area unscathed!

  4. I want a chambray shirt too but I'm not willing to pay almost $100 for it!

    Tell Hubby picking up the Chanel purse is more of an errand rather than a shopping trip.. kinda like picking up dry cleaning since you're not getting anything new ;)

  5. Happy Friday Anh!!! The weather is lovely outside! You and hubby are adorable..."he politely requests..." I'm sure he won't mind the Chanel boutique as much as Forever 21. My hubby gets an instant nosebleed the instant he steps into Forever 21 & H&M.

  7. Happy Friday! I hate to pay full price for things as well. Especially at Jcrew they always mark things down pretty quickly. Unless it is an emergency I try not to pay full price..and when those cases do come up that is when my hubby has a nose bleed! how exciting your purse is finished being repaired! It will be like picking up a new bag kind of...

  8. adorable way to style this shirt! love the pieces separate and put together this way ~

    And I agree with the others, picking up something previously purchased is not shopping, but could easily turn into a little trip ;)
