How old are you?
Between battling a head cold and enjoying the wonderful weather, I have neglected my posts. But today, I found something post worthy. I have been hunting for new sites and exploring new blogs (thanks to Google Reader who makes them so readily available) and I came across www.chicandyoushallfind.com. It's all vintage all the time. These are a size 7 and not even close to my size, would hardly fit my toes, but nonetheless are awesome. Plus, they look incredibly comfy.

A Dilly Dolly Day
I would like to be this girl today -- dancing in the fields instead of sitting at my desk. This dress by Tulle can be found at ModCloth for a reasonable $67.99. It's girly and structured, simple and adorable. The tights and bangs take the ensemble to the next level for me. Granted, if I were prancing through this field, my dance would not look quite as dainty.

Summer Staples
I have a rule: never spend more than $20 on sunglasses. I have this rule for two reasons. One, I treat my shades horribly and they normally don't last longer than a season. Two, I like to scatter a variety in my car, handbags, and house and choose based on my mood. These Urban Outfitter's shades are a perfect match -- at only $10, they are cheap and sturdy enough to hold their own against whatever else happens to be in my bag.

California Casual
After spending a weekend in California where the sunshine seems to never end, I am aching for mother nature to bring some to the east coast. As the weathermen were warning North Carolinians of snow to come, I watched three girls hop on bikes with bathing suits to head to the beach. I almost pushed one over out of pure jealousy. Instead of resulting to violence, I began shopping for a bathing suit so I'm fully prepared when summer hits. At a steep $128 each, I don't believe I'll be giving Anthropologie my business for this Heidi Klein bikini. However, I will be on the lookout for a look-alike.

Goodbye Boots, Hello Ballet
As I sit inside on this rainy Monday, I dream of going outside in something other than my giant, black, dull rain boots that make me walk like a toddler. Granted they still call my name in freezing temperatures, but I am strongly considering making the switch to the Rainy Day ballet flats from J. Crew. As the rainy spring days approach, their $55 price tag doesn't seem too unreasonable -- plus it would give me the gift of walking like a lady. Do I stay faithful to boring black or venture into some "deep chartreuse?"

Current Crush
Call me crazy, but I have my eye on a pair of Oxfords. Something is drawing me in and I want to find out what. I have been looking all over the place for a pair that would suit me, and I think I may have a winner. Steve Madden makes amazingly comfortable shoes and tends to be my go-to brand for everyday wear. These Tuxxedo Oxfords are on sale for $49.95 and if you Google for a coupon you can get an extra 20% off.

Maxi Size Love
I am a huge fan and avid stalker of Gilt, however I just joined Swirl to see how it compares. It's only my first week, and so far I hadn't been blown away like I was immediately with Gilt. However, today's Tart sale gave me hope. This dress is an awesome color and I'm sure I would live in this when the weather allows. The best part is it's budget friendly price tag of $39. Seems to reasonable to be true.
