True Blue


top-Zellers   flared jeans-MIH shoes-Target   purse, necklace + rings-H&M  bracelet-Aldo  sunnies - Jessica Simpson  belt -old

While I was on vacation I picked up these MIH flared jeans for 40% off the original price at Nordstrom Rack in Arizona, which is a shopper's outlet dream! Seriously, if you're ever in the Scottsdale area you need to go! These flares are the perfect wash and length. I just wish I would have chosen one size smaller because they stretched out a lot, especially in the bum which is the worst place to stretch, am I right?? I picked up the cute purse at H & M this weekend for $10.00 on sale. I entered the store meaning to just "browse" but I ended up walking out with three things. Story of my life!

I hope you all had a great weekend! D. and I went to see 'The Hangover 2" on Saturday and we were both disappointed. It wasn't nearly as good as the first one. We still laughed a lot but wish we would have gone to see 'Bridesmaids' for a second time instead. I give it a 7/10. I added 2 points because Bradley Cooper was in it. Shirtless. 'Nuff said.

Oh, and thanks for  all of your sweet comments last week on my blog redesign I won from the talented Debby at Inspired Design. She took all of the ideas I gave her and created a layout I absolutely love! Thanks Debby : )

oh Marie! I super love this!! I recently got a pair of flared jeans from Macys ad I love them. This outfit gives me a 70's vibe which I love.. my style is very 70's, vintage inspired :) That purse is adorable and from target!! I'm gonna go to target ;-)

Marie a la Mode said...

Sue: Go to H & M, not Target for the purse! Thanks for your sweet comment :)

it's impossible to walk out of h&m without something (at least for me, too!)

love your denim on denim!

M said...

Such a classic, cute boho chic ensemble :) Love your little shoes, Target seems to have the BEST finds lately...

And I still haven't seen Bridesmaids or the Hangover 2 but I'm way more interested in Bridesmaids, minus the shirtless Bradley Cooper... :)

I picked up that same brown bag from H&M this week! The price was too good to pass on. Great minds think alike missy!
I Like the new blog layout too...

LOVE the shades of blue, so casual with that tinge of cowboy :D and i heard about hangover 2 how it's like hangover 1, but still funny, I didn't really like hangover 1 so if you say it's not as good I think I'm gonna skip it all together and see X Men First Class!!

Jelena Zivanovic said...

lovely outfit, you look great with your new haircuyt!

Ashley said...

Damn, I forgot about the flared jeans this spring/summer. Totally forgot about them, and now I'm jealous seeing you wearing these fabulous kittens and have nothing even remotely similar. Hmm. Maybe it's not too late!

I can't believe that purse was $10! Nice find!

Couture Carrie said...

Gorgeous look, darling!
Love your jeans!

You're wearing your new heels! lovely.

Yes, Hangover 2 wasn't as good as the first. It was more fk'd up though. And I agree...Bradley Cooper...so HOT! lol Wish he had his shirt off longer in the movie. teehee

Hope you had a wonderful weekend!

Snappy-Q said...

Oh, this look is so classic! I can't wait to have a waist again so I can justify buying some new flares!
And yes, jeans stretching out in the bum is so annoying. But you still look awesome. Also, I love the new layout and am not at all surprised that you won it... you win so much!

Adrienne Shubin said...

Your new blog design and layout is fantastic! And you, as always, look tres chic. I am happy to hear you had a good time in AZ and that you were able to score some new duds.

I really wanted you to bring that puppy home though :)

J. said...

I love pink ;) The combo of pink and black is very chic.

Tracy D said...

Pretty as always, I don't want to hear that about the Hangover II though!

Kate said...

Aw, saggy bum is the worst! Hate when jeans do that! You look totally adorable though!

Lynzy said...

Loving this outfit, mostly because it's very laid back but still very chic. Your aviators look great with your cute haircut! I am so disappointed with the hangover 2! I heard so many horrible reviews!

I love this outfit. I have been buying a lot of blue as of late which is funny, because I don't normally wear blue. Phase of the moment! I love your ring, is it turquoise? I bought a turquoise ring in California that I love for the summertime. So glad you are enjoying the layout... thank you for the mention!! xo

Katherine said...

This look is so chic and classic! Love the chambray - I want a shirt just like that! :)

Marie a la Mode said...

Debby: Yes, my ring is turquoise, it's one of my favorite colors : )

Mademoiselle Lala said...

Great look! I also love your blog revamp! :) Very stylish.

My and my boyfriend, on the other hand, enjoyed The Hangover II. Of course it wasn't as good as the first one, but maybe because we were preapring for the worst, we actually found it OK. Althought there are far too many sexist jokes balancing on the verge of inappropriate... X


P.S. Don’t forget about my giveaway!

Unknown said...

You look fabulous! Glad you had fun in the Valley of the Sun. And I'm glad to hear that I'm not the only one who was dissappointed with the Hangover 2 - it was a bit over the top.

Those jeans look amazing on you and i need to own that h&m necklace! I was also left feeling a little disappointed after hangover 2...it isn't a bad film just doesn't even compare to the first. the previews have just come out for braidsmaids over here and it looks hilarious!

Emmett Katherine said...

Great take on the Canadian tuxedo! the light & dark denim paired together works really well. Also great jeans, loving the slight flare :)
