PFM Obsession: Flats Loafers & Oxfords, at Target!

Bravo Target, my love for you keeps growing! Sometimes a girl just wants to add to her collection of flats for fall, without breaking the bank. Done and done. I'm appreciating the whole look for less aspect...who doesn't like getting designer style at affordable prices? I became so enthralled while shopping online that the first two pairs somehow ended up at my front door (how did that happen?) and I have to say they are super comfortable. Hint- look for the "buy one, get one half off" deals that Target often has. The only difficult part for you my friends will be deciding which colors to get! xoxo Becca

1. These Mossimo tassel loafers bear a striking resemblance to this pair from Dolce Vita...do y'all agree?

2. Wear glittery gold oxfords with everything from a pleated skirt to boyfriend jeans and a tie-neck blouse. At least, that's what I'll be doing! Madewell has a stunning option here, while Dolce Vita offers a non-sparkle version.

3. Two-tone and cap-toe are both classic styles that aren't going anywhere for a while...just ask the fashionistas at Shopbop and check out this pricier patent pair by Sam Edelman.

PFM Obsession: Inspiration Board

...so my shopping abilities have been seriously curbed lately and it has been quite an adjustment.  though i wasn't insane with it, i did have some room to play.  my playing days seem to be far from returning but that doesn't mean that i'm not drooling for some must have items to add to my wardrobe.  i created this little inspiration board to help organize my current obsessions.  thanks to Net-A-Porter's The Edit, i had plenty to choose from!  though i would love to take home the inspiration pieces, even when my pockets are fatter, i will most likely be unable to justify such extravagant purchases.  if this is the case for you too, be sure to check out my more economical versions of each item.

(from left to right)

Valentino Rock Stud gloves - these are the inspiration pair but i would probably rock these and still feel just as edgy.

Valentino spiked flats - i am feeling the Valentino line!!! love these shoes.  Take the everyday classic flat and bump up the edge with spikes! These are just as fun and way more pocket-friendly!

Tory Burch Peplum Sweater - i love this peplum sweater!! and the bright color is perfect to chase away winter blues! i'm so glad that peplum is in because i love this style. it's such a fun way to add a girly touch to any outfit.  this sweater is just as bright and cute!

Burberry down coat - i am loving Burberry's outerwear.  they have found a way to make a down jacket feminine and cool - all at the same time! this coat is fab in a different way but it would still make a statement and keep me warm!

Miu Miu glitter brogues - i have been looking for the right pair of brogues to add to my shoe collection.  a glittery pair would be right up my alley.  this pair might just do the trick!!

The Row pencil skirt- gasp!  i love this skirt!  the great shape and color makes it so unexpected.  and it's leather!! love that!  this skirt would still be a splurge but it would be timeless addition. 

Rick owens leather jacket - who doesn't love Rick Owens style and now it's been updated to the metallic trend.  this jacket has all the style without the price tag.

Day Birger et Mikkelsen pants - this is another item i've been stalking - printed tapered pants.  with my long legs, i can't just buy any pants.  the price of this pair isn't doable but i love these and they would be a great substitution!

ooo, how i wish i could go shopping!! lol, ah well, my birthday is coming up.  maybe i can stash some b-day cash to get at least one of these items sooner rather than later! xo Sesheta

Daily Outfit: Silk Pleats and Flowers

...so, i finally found some (affordable) floral print denim that i liked!! thanks to H&M, i am able to join Becca in this fun trend.  though i was nervous about the cream background, the color combo of teal, pinks and yellows, made them irresistable!!  it also gave me an excuse to rock more neon but softened by my silk pleated blouse that i love (and hardly get to wear).  i'm so excited!! can't wait to wear these over and over again :) xo sesheta

Daily Outfit: Neon and Nude

one of my favorite combos is neon and nude.  besides being totally on trend, it is a great way to tone down the shocking hue of any neon item and makes it great for day.  adding my denim vest is a perfect contrast.  i don't think i've posted an outfit with my DIY studded vest yet!!  i haven't had much time to wear it because, in my freezing office, i am forced to wear a long sleeve shirt under it.  i can't wait to wear it to summer outings over tanks and sundresses!  

either way, i love this pairing.  my two favorite parts of this combo are: 1) the #armparty happening with all my bracelets (LOVE) and 2) the exact match of my patent nude flats to my skinny cargos (a happy accident)!  this palette just makes my heart sing!! i guess it's the little things!! :) xo sesheta

p.s. having 4th of July fall on a Wednesday is so awkward!  unfortunately, i couldn't  make use of the mid-week holiday to make a long weekend like i had hoped.  despite that fact, i still plan to have a good time with friends and family.  hope you do the same!!
