LOFT Sale Top Picks

Oh heyyyyy did you miss me? I haven't been shopping much lately (in case you were wondering where my May budget post is yeeeeeek) but saw there's a huge 50% off sale at LOFT and did some serious credit card damage. I am LOVING this top in red but they were sold out in my size so I went for white (because I definitely needed another white lacy top) and obviously I couldn't say no to this beautiful swing dress... or these pretty & comfy sandals ;)

Here are all my top picks:

LOFT Friends & Family Sale

Breaking into my normally scheduled programming to bring you a little sale post today! I'm pushing today's post to tomorrow, so head back tomorrow for a fall outfit post!

So, everything at Loft is currently 40% off for their friends and family sale! The site is going to try to get you to sign up for their emails to get the code, but no need - the code is FRIENDS.

Is it just me, or is Loft having a huge sale every three weeks or so?! Ha, not that I'm complaining! They released a bunch of new arrivals last week and I was actually hoping they would have a sale soon so I wouldn't feel bad ordering a few things. I'm definitely snagging that suede/fur vest and that cute black and tan scarf!! Here are my picks:

Two Great Sales!

So whenever I try to take a break from blogging is always when something comes up that I just have to share it with you! Two great sales landed in my inbox today, and of course I had to round up some of my favorites (ahem, and shop ;)

My favorite shoes are on sale for less than $50!! They are so comfortable and I get compliments every time I wear them! 

LOFT - 40% off with code FRIENDS
I know, I know, they JUST had a huge sale less than a month ago (check out my fitting room try-ons from that sale, almost everything is still available). I almost didn't even click through to their email, but it turns out, there are a ton of cute new arrivals to shop. I ended up ordering quite a few things to try, including this striped shirtdress, this suede skirt, and this cute coverup for our beach trip in June!

Nordstrom Spring Sale - Up to 50% off 
Everyone goes nuts for the Nordstrom Anniversary Sale, but let me tell you, there are some pretty amazing items on sale right now - especially the shoes and accessories! My favorite bow mules are currently on sale, and I ended up ordering this cute red dress and little white eyelet bag, I'm planning on pairing them with my new favorite espadrilles and white statement earrings. Oh, and these earrings are less than $8 (yes, really!) so I had to snag them too!

The Perfect Work Dress (and Sale at Loft!!)

Dress - LOFT / Coat (similar here, with toggles here) - J. Crew Factory / Bag - Tory Burch / Booties (on sale here, more sizes here) - TOMs 

I currently have this problem, where I never ever dress up for work. Seriously, I think they maybe only draw the line at booty shorts (although yes, I have seen women in those in the office before - ummm...). I used to work in a business casual environment, but over the years my work wardrobe has been pared down to one pair of dress pants, ponte pants that I hope don't look too much like leggings, and a couple of blouses that I've now owned for upwards of five years. It's getting sad in there.

And the problem is, is that sometimes I do have to dress up. There will be a big presentation or an event that necessitates business casual, and I just don't have anything that I want to wear.

Enter: the work-ready dress. You guys, isn't she a beaut? My mom bought it for me for my birthday (yet another way this blog has come in handy, because she saw it on one of my Friday Finds posts!) and I think it's love - here's why:

1. The pattern
Work wear often equates to boring in my book, so I love that this is a "professional" pattern - perfect for the workplace!

2. The length
As a tall girl over here, I always have a hard time finding dresses or skirts that are long enough on me. I'm past the days of sneaking into the office with a skirt that barely goes past my finger tips and hoping no one says anything. Let's face it, longer just is more professional.

3. The fabric
In looking at the dress online, I figured it would be a thin material like what you would find in a blouse, but it's actually thicker with a tiny bit of stretch. Which means no worrying about undergarment lines, no showing every little body imperfection to the world. It's super flattering, and while I haven't packed it yet, it seems like it wouldn't get wrinkles in my suitcase - perfect for business travel!

Okay, I think I'm good on talking about this dress now ;) BUT I wanted to let you know that Loft is currently running a sale on everything - you can take 40% off everything with code NEWNOW, plus free shipping on orders over $50 (which never happens at Loft!) and double points for cardholders.

And their spring arrivals are so good right now!! Loft can be pretty hit or miss for me in that sometimes they pick a trend and go way too far with it - I remember basically hating all of their fall and winter collections this year. But now I want everything - this dress, this dress, this skirt, and these pants are currently en route to my house (supposed to be delivered tomorrow - I'll try and do a try-on sesh on Instastories Friday night), and I'm holding myself back from buying more! Here are my picks:

Dress - LOFT / Coat (similar here, with toggles here) - J. Crew Factory / Bag - Tory Burch / Booties (on sale here, more sizes here) - TOMs

LOFT Sale Alert

A post on a Saturday, say whaaaaaaaat?

I know I know, I'm confused, you're confused.

I was flipping through LOFT's sale this morning (40% off EVERYTHING with code FALL40) and there was so much goodness I just had to share. Their sweater game is on point right now - don't you love this fun blanket sweater? I also want all.of.the.scarves and have my eye on this dress - it has potential for our confusing dressy but not too dressy and still work-appropriate work holiday party that got added to my calendar this week.

Enjoy your weekend!

Loft Fall Style Sale

I don't usually give sales their own blog post, but in this case, I just couldn't help myself.  Ann Taylor Loft hit the nail on the head with their new fall collection, and I want every. single. piece.  Luckily, everything (including their lounge line, Lou & Grey) is currently 40% off, and you can earn Loft Cash Cards with every purchase over $50.  You may just be seeing some (err, a lot) of these pieces on this little blogger soon.

(click the images to shop)

What's your favorite piece?  I'm trying to decide between the leather sleeve jacket, the gray and white sweater, and the jewel collar oxford.  Welp.  Sorry September budget.
