One of Doug's birthday presents to me was a shopping spree for work clothes! Once warm weather rolled around, I found that I barely have any spring/summer clothes appropriate for work. I am a big fan of plain colored tees and that just won't cut it at the office, so sweet Doug offered to fix this problem.
We probably won't be able to go until next Saturday, but the plan is to visit H&M and New York and Company (my all-time favorite store). I have never really liked Forever 21 (don't hate me...I know it's everyone's favorite) but I'm considering giving it another try since the pricetags are oh so low.
I plan on getting cute tops and lots and lots of skirts and dresses. Here are some things I've been eyeing:
TOPS
This whole outfit. Yes, please.
SKIRTS
Not for work...just because it's cute and comfy- win win!
DRESSES
(This is so Legally Blonde...I love it!)
As you can see, I have a pretty conservative style, and I don't typically buy things that I won't be able to wear in 3 years. I'm more of a 'simple gal' (my mom cracks up everytime I say this...I still don't know why! :) I love girly things...frills, ruffles, flowers, embellishments. Luckily, NY&Co has that on just about all of their clothing right now!
What trends are y'all loving this spring?

What a fun birthday present!! I'll have to tell my bf about that. I like the outfits that you picked out. Do you ever shop at LOFT? It looks like it would work well with your style, and they're constantly having % off sales.
I go for classics too. Ann Taylor Loft is having a 40% off sale this weekend. I get most of my clothes there.
All of these outfits are great - I totally agree with the classic style. You'll never look out of date, you can wear it forever, and you can look back at pictures someday and not cringe. I'll second Ruth's opinion and tell you to check out Loft - SO GOOD. Have fun on your spree!
I love all of the flowers and ruffles!
Just another similarity...I love frills and ruffles! Every single one of these tops is something that I would wear. If I ever dressed up. Haha. I will have to check out NY and Co!
What a sweet hubby you have! I have your blog saved now so I can keep up with you!! You are too cute.. I can't wait to see what you buy!
love everything you have picked out. they could easily be taken from work to dinner out and everything in between. they would look lovely on you! x
I am OBSESSED with NY and Co! I need to do some spring shopping ASAP but hoping some new "news" comes my way first!! LOVE these outfits!
