A little Sunday shopping recap

The last time I mentioned Old Navy was back in February, quite some time ago, huh? Well, I hopped into the store yesterday after the bookstore in an effort to find my growing niece a few pieces. My sister always jokes that whenever I shop for "A" that she ends up looking like a little mini me. Well, I know what I like and I don't like kids in cartoon themed outfits (ahhh, sorry, please don't send me hate mail). I think my mom ruined me on one too many princess outfits.
I think I jumped up and down when I saw this coat, and no, I am not above jumping up and down in a store.
Plaid Flannel Coat for Baby, urban dwelling gray $20 (from $29.50)

Polka dots and ruffles. I die.
Ruffled Oxford Shirts for Baby, Lavender Sprig $9 from $14.50

I decided to treat myself to a little something as well (I've been working hard!)
I'm wearing this dress as I type and I think it's one of the most comfortable pieces EVER. I might have to buy one in every color and start sleeping in them.
Women's V Neck Jersey Dresses $15


I'm currently wearing this scarf with the dress and I'm perfectly work appropriate, my boss already complimented it (whew, you have to question jersey in the office).
Women's Lightweight Plaid Scarf $8 (from $12.50)

Have I mentioned how much I love my Sundays off? B mentioned yesterday that he thinks I'm a "whole new person" when I have a day off and that I'm "much more relaxed" throughout the week. Note to self- never work seven days a week again.

  19. Fanciest baby ever, in a ruffled and collared shirt. Most babies i know prefer just to wear food.

  20. oh, poor Little One will hate me bc I sometimes cave and let him wear aweful hand-me-downs (with cartoons on them!!!) yes, I am ashamed.....gah poor guy!! haha

    but I do tend to shop at H&M and Old Navy for kids clothes (they have great stuff on a dime!)

  22. Wonderful purchases! I especially love the jersey dress.

  23. that lavender polka dotted top is reason enough for me to want to have a baby...

    ReplyDelete
  24. That stuff is THE cuteness. I'll have to go and see if they have my daughter's size. I have to go to Old Navy on purpose, not just to browse, because I invariably end up walking out with three or four things for her.

  25. The Plaid Flannel Coat is super cute!
    Almost like it belongs to a cute todler...adorable!! I can picture it with dark skinny jeans & sexy tan boots...
