retail therapy

When you're a college student and any little bit of extra cash is a blessing. I've been so stressed out lately and I couldn't even remember the last time I went shopping so I told my sister and my friend Kait to meet me on Newbury Street so we could hit up a couple of our favorite stores. We went into Urban Outfitters, Madewell, American Apparel and H&M. I finally bought two things I have been drooling over from AA, the Piqué Full Woven Skirt in black and the Pinpoint Oxford Round Collar Short Sleeve Button-Up Shirt in oxford blue. I also picked up the perfect party dress for my roommate's birthday party/housewarming party this weekend. I love getting dressed up, I can't wait!

stels x warby parker

Warby Parker glasses are now available at Stel's on Newbury Street. They had launch event that I went to with a couple of friends. I am a devout Warby Parker customer. Not only do they offer frames with perscription lenses for an affordable price ($95), but when you buy a pair they give a pair to someone in need. Definitely go check out their website. They have a virtual try-on program as well as a home-try on offer where they send 5 pairs of glasses for you to try on for a limited time free of charge.

This was actually my first time visting Stel's and they have stupendous pieces but obviously wayyy out of my price range. But it was nice to day dream and be around people who enjoy great eyewear as much as I do. DSC_0696 - Copy (5) copy
