Brights & Florals

This post is brought to you by Octer. And the letter S (for Sarah and shopping).

I need a new place to shop like America needs another male president, but guess what…I found a new place to shop. A UK-based shopping search engine called Octer set me up with a little shopping money to try out their platform which recently launched in the US.

Octer lets you search thousands of items from a bunch of different retailers, some of which I’m all too familiar with – Nordstrom, Macy’s, TJ Maxx… All of these places have already received plenty of my hard-earned money. I wanted to try something new (I’m nothing if not fantastically adventurous), so I checked out some of the other stores featured on Octer.

That’s what led me to Joules, which is where I ordered this floral top and the cute striped tee seen here! If you’re a fan of Boden, you’ll probably like Joules too (and you’ll really like the smaller price tags). I guess all the fun colors at Joules inspired me to wear my new bright floral top with an even brighter blazer. Like I said…I’m adventurous.

Headbands, Brows, and Tree Climbing

In case you need a break from all the Labor Day Sale announcements, here are a few outfits and other tidbits that didn’t make it to the blog (except…now I guess they have made it to the blog).

fit and flare LBD, striped headbandsimilar Dress // similar Headband // similar Bag // Shoes

I felt very cute and Parisian in this outfit, but it was mostly an accident. I fell back on a black dress because I didn’t know what else to wear, and the headband was just because I’m still figuring out the whole “growing out my bangs” thing.

skinny courduroysSweater (on sale) // Necklace (on sale)

This sweater is sorta gray on the front, and more gray on the back. The pants are also gray. But at least I wore pink shoes.

sephora brow builder review

I’ve gone my whole teenage and adult life without using any makeup on my brows, but now I’ve started and I can’t stop. I experimented with a couple drug store options, then settled on this combo of Sephora products: a brow pencil and brow builder. GAME CHANGER, people.

Ann Taylor stripe shirtdress

This is a goofy picture of me standing in a parking garage stairwell. Classy, right? But at least the dress is cute.

Stripes and polka dots in the same t-shirt?! Sign me up.

Kendra Scott design your ownEarrings // Ring (designed myself at Kendra Scott!)

Remember that birthday shopping spree? These are some of the spoils.

Last week’s casual Friday look. I felt like a Tomboy. I climbed a tree right after this photo was taken.

white eyelet dress, tan leather jacketsimilar Dress // similar Jacket // Shoes

I have to thank M Loves M for this outfit idea (and a lot of other outfit ideas, actually). Eyelet with leather seems like a pretty good end-of-summer combo. No tree climbing in this one though.

That’s all for now. Go have a kickass Labor Day Weekend.
