Tuesdays Aren't So Bad....

While day dreaming is fun, reality is not so bad either. Since I am more a Urban or Forever shopper than Oscar and Diane, at least according to Regions, my bank, you got to make due with what you have. So, to balance yesterday I found some cool dresses all under $100. Let's start with Urban Outfitters...I really like this dress, not sure how it would look on me though...The back of the one on the left is pretty open, different, I like it...

I know that I could not pull this one off, but it grabbed me when I saw the picture, you know in the so ugly you like it kind of way-
Great color-Always looking for a good white dress.
Onto a favorite of mine, Forever21. This dress is $11.50, it may not be "special" but at that price who cares! Add some fabulous shoes or great accessorizes and you are out the door. A great basic for the warmer weather that I hope is right around the corner.
Another simple but pretty white dress, and another basic. I would probably do something else with the ribbon belt, but I like the contrast of color...

This dress is so cheerful. I have not seen it in person, but I am loving the loudness of it while still being feminine.Proof that not everything wonderful has to come with big price tag...

I love forever 21, although I will now only shop on their website. The sales girls in the store keep calling me ma'am!

The blue dress reminds me of one that Michelle Obama recently wore. It's great to find affordable clothes that look fantastic. Thanks for pointing these out! I also love the last dress - so colorful!

Ah I remember the first time I was called Ma'am. Totally horrified. I'm only 27!!!!!

You are making me want to run out to forever 21. The only store I should probably be shopping at to save $$$. I love that last dress. So pretty. I think it must be mine.

Thanks for all the great eye candy and you're totally sweet words on my blog. Ah you made me feel so much better!
