Shoppe it to Me

I came across this dress and it reminded me of one I had when I was in junior high.  Mine was by Guess and was denim, but it was the same cut, color, and length.  This one is probably cheaper than the one I had as a kid- it's on sale for $56 on Shoppe.  And if you're extra into saving money, you can purchase it through Ebates. (Go ahead and click the link and sign up now!  I am SO helpful, aren't I?!)  Quick, there are only 10 left, and it has side pockets!  

On another note, I want to give a little shout out to Dooney & Bourke.  I ordered my purse last week, but I screwed up and put the wrong billing address.  I got an email from the company asking me to call back so they could fix the problem and put the order through.  They happened to be closed on Good Friday and Easter weekend, but I got a response first thing Monday morning, and my purse arrived on Tuesday.  I couldn't believe it got here so quickly, and I have to tell you, it's gorgeous!  It is so beautiful, and I am so glad I bit the bullet and bought it.
I hope your week is going well; I can't believe it is already Wednesday!

Little White Dress

As I type this, I am eating my weight in popcorn and milk duds.  It's true.  I have yet another head cold/allergy attack/sinus deal that is wiping me out, and I wanted a snack.  So milk duds and popcorn it is.
Here's the recipe:
Popcorn
Milk duds
Pop the popcorn.  Are you fancy?  Use a popper.  Are you lazy/hungry/tired?  Use microwave popcorn.  (I know, I know, pinterest says you can pop real popcorn in a brown bag or something.  One day I may try just that.  Today is not that day.)
Dump in your box of milk duds.  Add as many or as little as you like.
Consume voraciously.  Be sure to eat both the popcorn and the milk duds simultaneously.  That is key.

So.  Bet you didn't know you were going to come here and get a tried and true recipe, did you?  Well, have no fear.  I'm pretty sure Julia Child wouldn't have classified the above as a recipe.  But it is delicious.  I promise.

So today was hot.  I think spring forgot to stick around for a little bit, or else the desert just chased her away, because we kind of went directly into summer out here.  80+ degrees here today, people.  I'm not complaining, believe me.  I'd rather be too hot than too cold.  But I did don a dress, and it got me thinking about updating my dress collection.  And while I have a couple of white sleeveless numbers, I do not have anything like these...

     A lot: burberry /   A little more: Ganni dress, $100 / A little: Forever 21

That last dress was my inspiration dress; it is gorgeous Burberry perfection. It is silk cotton. It is $495 and out of this little old teacher's price range. The other two dresses are fairly similar, for hundreds less. The F21 dress is ridiculously low, at $23. The middle dress, which can be found at ASOS, is $100. Not bad, but give me the Burberry any day!
