My mother-in-law and I got my husband an iPad as an early birthday present, so we went to Best Buy today to have it covered in one of those protective shields (I have one on my iPhone too.)
The iPad is awesome, by the way. We are already addicted! Whoever told me about the FlipBoard app—it’s amazing! It’s one of my favorite things about the iPad!
We also stopped at the mall today because I wanted to see if Forever 21 had anything cute. I ended up getting a maxi dress for $14.50 and a very cute top!
You can see the shirt on in these pics (but I’d wear a white tank underneath)
I also picked up Clinique’s bottom lash mascara ($10 at Sephora—can’t wait to try it!) and one of the Sephora by OPI nail polishes with my 15% off coupon
(which from what I understand, is valid all week)
Lastly, I got this ADORABLE bikini from Victoria’s Secret! I was able to use my $10 off a bra coupon on it too, which brought the total to about $36.00!!! I was thrilled.
How cute is that!? The ruffles…the gingham? I love it. The bottoms have ruching at the back too—which is very flattering for the bum!
Today I wore a simple black strapless dress with my SM wedges. I wore this for shopping and then later to a party our friends had at their town home complex.
PS— this is third day hair that I touched up with a curling iron and used baby powder on!

Hope everyone is having an amazing weekend. It’s past 11:30 at night now and I’m nearly falling asleep writing this! Time for bed!

PS- tonight is night two using Latisse. Will post pics and updates related to this soon!
cute dress, but I think you're starting to go a little overboard on pics. Seven almost identical pictures of the same thing can get frustrating to scroll through. For this OOTD, I really don't think more than one or two is necessary. just mentioning it because it's a frequent complaint I read on other blogs as well.
I LOVE flipboard, it's awesome! Love all your new outfits. BTW, you inspired me to get a pair of nude heels. Before I got them, I didn't know what to wear with them and now I wear it with just about everything! Thanks!!! 😉
You're looking hawt. I love your black dress. Ok, great minds. I bought a yellow deal from F21, one of the cute maxis. I saw the one you got, but no waist details for me right now. I also got the Clinique bottom lash mascara!! Thank you, Sephora VIB. 🙂
Knew you would love the iPad – it's awesome. Browsing the net, catching up on blogs and reading iBooks is now one of my favorite things to do after work.

I adore those steve madden wedges you got, they look so great on you. Let us know how you like the bottom lash mascara, I'm curious about it.
You look really adorable as always!! That bikini just makes me wanna drool…it's so beautiful!! That will look so cute on you in the summer-time! Especially because it's pink, and pink always looks amazing on brunettes 🙂 <3
It's me again, I just wanted to say a huge thank you for putting me in your blogroll…I'm really flattered and honoured that you like my blog! You are in mine too, of course 🙂 <3
I stopped by forever 21 this weekend too and got 2 of their $12 'fabulous find' maxi dresses and they are awesome! I am soo short and they aren't too long… impossible to find!
i love the new white blouse! So cute. I always think a nice lacy/eyelet piece is great for adding texture and giving an outfit a polished look.
Totally interested to know your thoughts on the Clinique mascara. My sister got it in NYC on our trip last month and she seemed to like it.
Love the maxi dress, that's exactly what I want to wear this summer!
@anna—it's actually a lilac purple color but it's not photographing that way! thanks for including me in your blog roll as well!
@southern domestic—I have heard such great things about bottom lash—can't wait to try it!
I LOVE your maxi dress!! I've been having a maxi dress obsession this season- I've bought four from Anthro and few from some other stores. I really love the one you got. I can't wait to see how you style it in an OOTD.
The wedges are adorable on you! xo, tasha
cant wait to read your review on the clinique lower lash!
I bought that maxi in a deep purple and I love it. I'm going to the Dominican in a few months and it will be perfect!
Love the bathing suit and I really do love your wedges. I'm going to have to find a Steve Madden.
Love those wedges on you, they look great. That bikini is adorable. I love the ruched bottoms too!
super cute!!
ooh that bikini is so cute! you always find the best deals!
I can't beleive how toned and fit you look in these pictures. I can really see it in the first two in the black strapless! Are you still with your trainer or doing the group classes?
awww thanks sheila!!! i am doing both—working with my trainer AND doing his group classes (same trainer does both.) My trainer is opening his new facility soon where it will all be intense group workouts that are super challenging and burn tons of calories 🙂 can't wait! My H will be joining me too!
I love that bikini!!! I havent seen that one in our stores yet! Great deal on it too!

That bikini is adorable!!!!! Love your black dress too!
