Tory Burch Sunday Best

Sunday morning here and what a beautiful morning it is - and not just becuase of this great Tory Burch shirt dress! ;) 
Warming to near 70 degrees today this is a rare November day indeed and I am taking advantage by wearing my latest purchase with no tights, no jacket and no scarf. Just a beautiful, simple, lightweight and stylish Tory Burch dress for a nice casual sunday look.


Dress: Tory Burch "Tanyei" - purchased at TJ Maxx last week. Selling out or sold out everywhere that I had originally found it.  I picked up at TJ Maxx for less than half the original price! If you like the dress and would like to own one of your own I would definitely check the TJ Maxx close to you!  (find similar here and here - possibly!)
Handbag: Michael Kors "Hamilton" tote (find purchase info in this blog entry)
Boots: Madden Girl - purchased a couple of years ago. (find similar here)
Arm candy: Michael Kors watch, Stella & Dot bracelet, Hammered Bangles - similar here
Today I mixed my silver and gold pieces. My MK watch and hammered gold bangles were pulled together perfectly with my Stella & Dot "Vintage Twist Bracelet". I also add my gold "Belle Fleur Ring" (no longer available in gold, but you can get a great gold ring here). My left hand incorporates more of the "silver" with my white gold weding set. This also effortlessly pulls together the silver accents on my Hamilton tote to the gold colored buttons and accents on the Tory Burch dress.

Well, that is all I have for today..... Hope you enjoy your Sunday!

Happy Shopping day!

Okay so this morning I had a PTO meeting (I am our school's Yearbook Chairperson :) had to drop by the bank to sign some papers and then I had a little bit of free time on my hands. Fortunately (or unfortunately ;) I live directly across the street from TJ Maxx and ours carries top designers (Tory Burch, Steve Madden, Michael Kors, Emma Fox, Love Moschino, Seven, etc) . I thought I would stop in and see what they had today and maybe I could spot me that elusive gold watch I have been looking for. I can't seem to find just the right one for me!

Well, what I found was ALOT, but it didn't include the gold watch :/  I took pictures of what I tried out today below. I ended up putting some back for the sake of my wallet, but it was a really good day in the dressing room. Most of the time I am the girl who goes in with 10 items and rarely wants to leave with more than a couple....today I had to decide which 6 I liked the best!  Woohoo :)  Take a look below. Maybe you will see something you sparks your interest and you'll be on the hunt. I do love a good hunt!



Dress (Above): Love Moschino (find here - also comes in beige and red!) - I did end up purchasing this one. This was on the clearance rack for $79! It was the last one and a size 4 (size smaller than I would typically go for, but it fit well - only slightly tight in the bust - I couldn't pass it up for the $$ :)
PERFECT type of dress to go through ALL four seasons....love it paired with boots and a cardi or blazer with or without tights and equally cute with bare arms/legs and sandals. Lots of great possibilities
Moschino original price = $325!
 

 Dress (above): Tory Burch "Tanyei" (find it here and here ) - I love a good shirt dress, but have not seen a good one that I wanted to purchase in a while. Imagine my elation when I run across this "one and only" Tory Burch black shirt dress hanging in the store! Seriously, I hit the jackpot on this one. Of course, I checked out with this one today :)
I know you can't tell from the pics in the dirty mirror in the dark dressing room (ugghh), but this is a super soft, sleek perfect weight material with just a touch of spandex. The sleeves are also rolled up to 3/4 sleeves, but they can be let down for a full sleeve if you prefer.   I love it with the boots and bare legs and I am anxious to try it with tights and booties, too :)
The Navy one that I linked for you above from Cusp is a STEAL just in case you are interested in this dress. Tory Burch tag on this dress is $395!


Both of the above dresses were Calvin Kline.  I actually liked them both, but didn't love them, ya know? The grey one I was leaning toward more because I could see it with tights and a blazer for work. The stripe one was really cute with the little white belt at the waist, but the stripes made me feel like a prisoner. I could picture it with some cute pumps and a light weight cardigan for work, though. Sigh.....what is a girl to do?!  LOL ;)
 
 
 
Skirt (above): Michael Kors (similar here) Sweater (above): Fenn Wright Manson (similar here)
I did end up with the sweater, but not the skirt.  The skirt was really comfy and now looking at it in the pictures I may go back and get it.  I didn't think I would wear it enough, but I am thinking that isn't true now! There is always one that gets away...... ;)
 

Sweater (above): Berretti (similar here) - I did go home with this one. I loved the over sized comfiness of this sweater and the color/design and fringe are great (you can't really tell the color, but it isn't just black and grey it also has a smokey blue,charcoal, tan and taupe in there.  I am looking forward to this one with skinnies and my Uggs :) 
 
 
 

                                          Cardigan Sweater: (above) oneA (similar here)
~Tank, leggings and scarf all mine~
I did buy this sweater, as well. Super light weight and love the open weave.  Slightly longer in the back makes it great with leggings.
 
 
Sweater (above): Elisabetta Collection (similar here)
~Again tank, leggings and boots were what I walked into the store in~
I also took this sweater home....I guess this was a sweater buying day!  This one I loved (not with this tank) for jeans with a fun top underneath.  It is a rich walnut color (I know you can't tell from the photo) and I dont' have any other sweater in that color so I really like that.  The collar is also really fun the with asymmetric button closure.
 
Okay so that was fun!  I hope you enjoyed and maybe even got a few good ideas of your own.
