More Beautiful Than Fireworks...

Jon and I leave for the Jersey shore tonight and won't have internet access again until we're home on Sunday so you won't be seeing me around here or your blogs for a few days.  Comments and page views have been quite light this week so I'm hoping that's due to the rest of you being on vacation too!  To my fellow Americans (god, I sound like the President!), I hope you all have a sunny and fireworks-filled 4th of July!  Just for fun, I'll leave you with a few pictures of some of my recent purchases:

1.  Wide brimmed hat from Forever 21 (though mine is black and white):

2. Bubble hem tube dress from Forever 21 (I bought the green one, but it comes in 6 other beautiful colors.  I was tempted to buy it in blue too!)

3. Clark and Mayfield Laptop Tote (I needed something bigger for all of the crap I'll be carrying with me to BlogHer!  Isn't the orange fabulous?)

4. Croco clutch from Ann Taylor Loft (I had a spend $50, get $25 off coupon so I couldn't resist buying one in green and one in white!)

5. Cable sweater from Ann Taylor Loft (I got it in white.  It's perfect for a chilly night at the beach.)

P.S. Don't worry...the purchases were spread out, not to mention that a) I just sold some things on Ebay and b) I recently got a cash bonus at work for a job well done! :)
