With Thanksgiving rapidly approaching, lots of bloggers have begun to write about things they're thankful for. I think it's an incredibly sweet idea, and since I can be a bit of a Negative Nancy sometimes (with a capital "N" for super negativity) I thought joining in might do me some good.
Today, I'm thankful for having friends that email me deals like this because they remember that time I confessed my love for the Backstreet Boys, yet still want to hang out with me. That would be my friend Meaghan. Only $829 for a 3 night stay on a cruise with Nick, Brian, Howie, AJ, and Kevin? Don't mind if I do! (Don't you judge me for knowing all their names).
Shop:
- Anthropologie top (bought on sale, no longer available)
- BCBG skirt (bought on sale circa 2008. No longer available. Buy similar on sale here in a darker gray or here)

ReplyDeleteWhat cute peep toes!!! :) Love them!

Lovely outfit! I adore those shoes :)
ReplyDeleteYou have some great shoes! Love the bag too. The pink and blue play well with each other. And if you love the BSB as much as you do, go on the cruise! New Kids on the Block were my boy band. Aww...memories :) Heather
ReplyDeleteI LOVE your shoes! Such a perfect shade of pink!
ReplyDeletehave to love those deal finding friends, even though most usually get a percentage, if it's an affiliate thing and yeah I know longer have to be thankful and can be negative, been there done that with thanksgiving..haha
ReplyDeleteGreat purse, and what a steal it was!
ReplyDeleteCute outfit and I love the background!
ReplyDeleteI love the pattern and colors of that top. Looks great with the pink shoes.
ReplyDeleteMy best friend is still obsessed with the Backstreet Boys - but she has a newborn now so probably won't make the cruise! You look so cute - I love the paper bag waist on the skirt, and your shoes are adorable.
ReplyDeleteThanks! It really is- I've dressed it up and down tons of different ways over the years :)
ReplyDeleteThanks :) I actually have such a hard time b/c I have tiny feet (size 4-5) so whenever I see anything cute in my size I snatch it up :)
ReplyDeleteThank you so much :)
ReplyDeleteThanks Anjali! They're really fun :)
ReplyDeleteThanks Heather! I hadn't tried this color combo before, but I really loved it. And as much as I love BSB (and it's a lot), I think I could find a better use for $829...you know, like repaying my students loans :(
ReplyDeleteThanks Ki! I love them too :)
ReplyDeleteI don't think Meaghan was getting any sort of percentage, she just saw it and thought of me :)
ReplyDeleteThanks! I felt the same way :)
ReplyDeleteThanks Megan! My parents-in-law front yard :)
ReplyDeleteThanks Rachel!! The top has been sadly neglected in my closet, but I'm going to try wearing it more
ReplyDeleteThanks Kim! Yeah, I guess I can understand a baby taking priority and all :)
ReplyDeleteCute skirt!! pretty! xoxo
ReplyDeleteLove,love,love that vintage bag.
ReplyDeleteSwooning in envy!!!
I love your skirt and I can't believe the price of that amazing bag!! What a great find. Such a chic and stylish outfit! xx
ReplyDeleteI am totally IN LOVE with this outfit - everything! I'm surprised that isn't a Anthropologie skirt! Anyways, no judging. I'm a gal of the NKOTB era and I was in love with Joey and Jordan!
ReplyDeleteAnd I'm really surprised that you are a negative nancy!! You seem super duper positive to me! :)
Thanks so much!
ReplyDeleteThanks :) I'm a little obsessed with it too :)
ReplyDeleteThanks Rachel! I think it was one of my best finds to date :)
ReplyDeleteThanks Samantha! Yup- BCBG on sale for $30! I snatched it up in gray and white :)
ReplyDeleteAnd it's weird- I am generally really positive to others, but can be really negative and harsh with myself. You know? I think we all do that. But it's good to work on :)
Excuse me, but WHO doesn't LOVE the BSB? I most certainly do! I may be even obsessed. Ok, not obsessed. But you know, I like them a REAL LOT. hahahaha. LOVE your shoes, darling! They are beautiful! and of course, so are you, BSB lover or not :)
ReplyDeleteAw, thanks Laura!! Glad I'm not alone in my crazy love :)
ReplyDeleteOMG that's amazing. I loved them too when I was younger - they had so many hits! A little sad that now they are playing the cruise circuit :(
ReplyDelete"Oh baby, baby/How was I supposed to know/That something wasn't riiiiiight, girl.../Show me how you want it to be/Baby, tell me, 'cause I need to know now, oh, because/My loneliness is killin' me/aaand I, I must confess/I still beliiieve, still believe/When I'm not with you I lose my mind/Give me a siiiiiiiiiiign/Hit me baby one more time!"
ReplyDeleteAaaaand, fin.
p.s. BSB 4EVA! <--- I'm judging myself a bit for the "4EVA..."
Exactly my though, but not sad enough for me not to want to go if it was cheaper :)
ReplyDeleteLol, no judgment from this end!
ReplyDeleteThanks so much!
ReplyDeleteYour friend did a great job looking out for you! That's awesome. Love your skirt & bag girl. Hope you're having an awesome day. :D

Your shoes are superb as well as your bag!
ReplyDeleteAnd I can't believe the Backstreet Boys are doing a cruise... Sounds absolutely unreal and I guess a bit sad...
I also know all of these guys' names:))) You're so fun in your posing, I guess your personality is alike:X Nice clothes, joy and a great attitude, love it!!
ReplyDeleteThanks! Didn't she? I was so excited to get that email from her :)
ReplyDeleteThanks! I know, it is kinda sad :(
ReplyDeleteAw, thank you so much Andreea! I'm so glad you enjoyed the post :)
ReplyDeleteum...I still love that Backstreet Boys song (among others)! I love your green and pink shirt and those great pink shoes, how cool are they?
ReplyDeleteThanks Cara!! I love that song too :)
ReplyDeleteWow...those shoes are kinda fabuloso!
ReplyDeleteWowza those shoes are amazing too! I would love if you followed me I will follow you! http://trendsneversleep.blogspot.com/
ReplyDeleteHeck, we were all pretty crazy about Backstreet Boys. I still can't believe I used to moon after the oldest member of the team - whatshisname. Welcome back from your holiday. Hope you had a great time!
ReplyDeleteWhy thank you :)
ReplyDeleteThanks! They're actually too big on me, but they were too cool to pass up :)
ReplyDeleteThat would be Kevin :) Thank you- I sure did :)
ReplyDeleteThe shoes are to DIE for. Seriously. They're amazing. You mixed so many colors, and they all work so well! But I'm totally coveting those shoes. Why do I not have a pair of lace-up peep-toe shoe boots?! :)
ReplyDeletei desperately want your shoes.
ReplyDeletei'm your newest follower! stop by & say hi if you fancy! cheers.

Love the colors you brought together here. :) And pink suede shoes!?!! I love anything suede.
ReplyDeleteAw, thank you so much! I'm so glad you like them! I'm a little crazy for color, so you'll be seeing lots of it :)
ReplyDeleteAw, thank you! I definitely will :)
ReplyDeleteAw, thanks so much! They're definitely one of my favorites :)
ReplyDeleteI love that skirt Inna! So backstreet boys is your boy band of choice??? Hmmm ok, mine is 98 degrees. I am still mad that Vanessa is now with Nick...can you believe he passed a fabulous find like me up??? LOL who am I kidding :)
ReplyDeleteOh my goodness!! So are you going on the cruise? :) I love that top on you...so pretty!!
ReplyDeletelove your shoes, and pretty top
ReplyDeletefollow me on www.rochellekecloset@blogspot.com, Iam now following you
xoxo
Thanks Bessie! I liked 98 degrees too, but BSB were definitely #1 in my book. And I think Nick would be extremely lucky to have you- definitely his loss :)
ReplyDeleteThanks Sayaka. Lol @ going on the cruise- I wish but I think even at 40%, $829 for a 3 night cruise is a bit much....
ReplyDeleteThank you so much!
ReplyDeleteI LOVE THE SHOES!! is your cute blue bag vintage? its cute great color for the whole outfit!
ReplyDeleteLove the shoes and skirt!
ReplyDeleteThanks!! And indeed it is :) I picked it up at a vintage sidewalk sale!
ReplyDeleteThanks so much!
