Blazer: Anthropologie; Jeans: AG; Shirt and Belt: JCrew; Boots: Vince Camutto; Bag: H&M; Rings and friendship bracelets: c/o JewelMint; Earrings: c/o LeMode Accessories |
A few weeks ago, I walked into that same Anthropologie, on a rainy night, with nothing else in mind but to return a polka dotted apron I had purchased. I figured I would take a look around the store, just in case, and made my way to the sale rack. And there it was. That blazer. Hanging clumsily between folds of sweaters. One left. Size small. $70! In a moment, I slinked that blazer off of the hanger, wrapped it around me, gazed softly into the mirror, and then totally high-fived myself! Score!! Call it fate, but somehow, this little blazer and I found each other again. And when I exchanged it for the polka dotted apron, that I thank for allowing us to meet again, it really only felt like I bought this little gem for $40.
So, the moral of the story is this: When it comes to shopping, and life, hold out. If it is meant to be, it is meant to be. If it's not, move on, or be happy with what you've got. And, if you are patient and wait, you will be rewarded far more than any impulsiveness can give you.

Ahhhh I love this outfit, especially that blazer! Chic boots too! XOXO, www.NatalyasCloset.com
I love the satisfaction of an amazing sale! I did the same thing recently - walked away from a camel-print midi dress from Anthro. Then I found it 1/2 price on Black Friday. Sooo happy!
You were just meant to have that blazer! It's so cute too. I love how the buttons pop out with the contrasting color and the print is adorable. And put together in an outfit like that just completes it! I love it!
Cute, cute, cute, cute, cute! :) Don't you just love when you find something that you once eyed and it is suddenly in your size at a price you can afford...it was meant to be!

haha this is so true. some wardrobe pieces are just meant to be.
love the boots, i may have to get some myself.

haha I'm the same way! I'm returning this, and I have a store credit, so really I'm only spend $20, even though if you add up all the money I spent to get to here, it's more like $120 but WHO CARES! :) It looks very cute on you!

First- I am totally jealous because I fell in love with that blazer online but the price tag was way too much. I think they're all gone now after their awesome black friday sale. :(
Second- I absolutely love this. :) It's so true and I have found lots of happiness (in finding good deals and in other ways as well) by being patient. :) Thank you.
I love the way you connect a normal event to life philosophy! And you're looking gorgeous! I've passed on a Blog Award to you! http://thesilverkickdiaries.blogspot.com/2011/11/little-delights-tuesday_29.html

I love the story and it is so true! I can't count how many times this has happened to me as well. And I love the blazer--totally worth the wait. And the boots, of course, are amazing!
That is the best surprise ever! :] And it looks absolutely wonderful on you! Also I absolutely adore your boots!!
Haha I love this story. Great reminder that impulse shopping isn't all fun and games. Oh, and the blazer is great :)
Ha ha I knew that was anthropologie from the moment I saw it! I have an anthropologie obsession except for their prices. : )
Also I love your boots! You look fab!

LOVE that blazer! :) Crazy how it was meant to be like that! I'm glad it worked out though, because it looks fantastic! I love how you've paired it too. The skinny belt completes the outfit.
Cheers,
Christi

There's nothing better than finding a great piece of clothing you thought you 'missed out' on!

I love when that happens! Some call it luck, I call it fate
That's so great that you and your blazer found each other again! Yes, I know that sounded corny. It was on purpose. But that's really great! Plus, the fact that it was still there, months later?! That never happens!
Yes!! This was totally fate :) So happy you got this blazer... it looks perfect on you!
And I'm lovin' the boots!
This is SO true! I wanted these darling peep-toe heels with spikes on them made by Sam Edelman, but they were $175! I waited and waited and they finally went 50% off! Christmas gift to myself :)
That is such a great story! I love it when things turn out that way (cause lets face it, we've all left things behind at the store and we continue to think about it for days and days!)
The blazer looks like it was made for you! It's even BETTER that you scored it for $70!
XO - Marion

I just found this jacket at Anthro for the same great deal and had to buy it. I love the way you styled it with jeans and I would do the same, however, I'm having a hard time figuring out what to pair it with. Any other ideas?
