January - Where My Dolla Bills Went

So I went to Kohls for the first time in about 8 years. I blame blogging. I was seeing some cute stuff all over the blogosphere from the pseudo-department store and I figured late January sales would be the perfect time to check it out. Let's just say it was perfect timing. A ton of stuff was marked down to 70% off, then another 25% off of THAT price. Cray cray. So, I bought two things. I could have bought more, but, well, that's what I'm trying NOT to do. That's actually the whole point of these posts. Oh, and we're thinking about traveling to Europe this summer (ahhhhh! so excited!), so I'm kind of at the point where I would rather spend money on the trip than new clothes I probably don't need. But come next month, it's possible that I'll have convinced myself that I need new clothes FOR the trip :)

1. White Blazer (Narciso Rodriguez for DesignNation). Regulary $84, but I got it for $18.95. A white blazer wasn't on my mental shopping list, but I tried this one on and it fit like a glove. It's also really long (my torso is creepily long) so I just couldn't pass it up. It also has lovely tuxedo stripes down the sides. Gah, it's just really cute.

2. Lace Tank (Sonoma). It's really difficult to tell what it looks like in the picture, but it's basically a lacy off-white tank. I like that it's thick so my bra won't show through. I often wear a plan white tank under cardigans, and I thought the lace would be a cute way to take things up a notch :) It was originally $20, but I got it for $14.99.

Total: $33.94
