Day 7: Holes in My Closet

Sunday's are always filled with mixed emotion. For one, it's Sunday, I get to go to church, eat some scrumptious foods (most of the time), take an awesome nap, pretend I don't actually have anything to study for for a few hours, and then bam.. it's five o'clock and I'm starting to worry about the fact that I have two tests at the end of the week, and one I'm not feelin' so hot about. Thank you awful economics class, I despise you. Seriously, that thing is awful. I'm going to need a miracle to do well in the class. Okay, so maybe I'm being a bit over dramatic, but I can honestly say, it's my least favorite class of all time. That's the truth, truth.

Anywho, I just wanted to direct y'all's attention over to a new page I've created. It's called Holes in My Closet, and my plan for it is to have some sense of direction when I'm shopping. There are always those items that seem to be missing from your closet, and you're not sure why, but you always forget to consider them while out shopping. Well not anymore ladies! I've got my list, and I'm sticking to it. I hope that it'll help me curb my spending on random items I don't really need {although, that'll probably still happen occasionally, and that's okay}. You can read all about it in the link above, and please, feel free to join me! I'm such a list person, it just makes sense for me to do something like this, so naturally, I'm pretty excited. I'll post about when I get a particular item and when I wear it for the first time on the ol' blog, and then link that post to the item on the list. I'd like to give credit where credit is due though, I kind of stole the idea from Franziska, you can check out her blog, Franish, here.

Here's what I wore this lovely Sunday morning and afternoon:
{although I did change into something more suitable for nap taking!}

I'm in love with that skirt. It's one of my favorite colors, it's a comfy material, and I don't have to worry about my skirt flying up every five seconds..which is just plain amazing. But, I must admit to you guys one thing, I'm pretty certain it's a maternity skirt. It's a medium, and it's just way too big for me. I have it folded over here, not to mention my belt is all that's holding it up. There is the possibility I actually needed a small, but I found it in the clearance section at Old Navy for 50% because it was an online only item someone had returned to the store. Oh, well, even if it is a maternity skirt, I will totally rock it when I start to have babies of my own {not happenin' for a while people..haha}. Oh, and do you recognize the top? It's from this post. Sneaky, sneaky, eh?

I can't not talk about my bag either..I want to take it everywhere with me. Did I mention I like burgundy/wine/maroon/oxblood? lol. It's my main school color, so I'm naturally drawn to it, but I was super excited when everything imaginable started coming out in that color. I got it for 50% off the regular price of $80, but that was still a bit pricey for me.. insert handy dandy Christmas gift card here, and it was completely free. Just the way I like it. I had originally been eyeing this, Rebecca Minkoff bag, but uhm..yeah, $350 is cray, so when I saw this one in the store, I was like OHMUHGOSH, I have to have it. It was meant to be you guys, meant to be.

What about you, do you like maxi skirts? And if you don't have one, would you be willing to give one a try? Oh, and did you partake in the wine/burgundy/maroon craze?
