I Think I Just Blue Myself

Check out my semi-new blouse from Target – I love the ruffle detail and the brilliant blue color and I got it marked down (okay, so it’s not really thrifted but it was super cheap because I had to do some mending on it) at a low, low price. Because I am a bargain hunter.






top: Target / pants: Target / shoes: Tory Burch / ring: Aldo

In other news, I got a package in the mail a few days ago from my mom and it contained these gorgeous little charms to add to either a bracelet or a necklace. Of course they are all Elizabeth I themed … because I am a giant nerd.











And, for anyone interested in a getting a bit of a jump of fall shopping, Eshakti is offering readers of Sartorial Sidelines $20 on their awesome selection of clothes. Just enter the code SARTORIAL0811 at checkout! The offer is good until September 15 … happy shopping.

That top looks great on you, and I'm laughing at the Arrested Development reference.

This color of blue is just gorgeous. I have really been trying to find a blue top similar to this for the longest time, but most blues have a bunch of green in the color, which is not what I want ... I want royal blue. This is perfect!

It definitely has to bee a good deal if it needs some fixing. And usually I point this out the cashier and make them take another 10% off, haha.

Love the color and the ruffles, this will definitely play well with the new suits!

I love Target, I use to joke that I should just be paid entirely in Target gift cards since I spent most of my income there. I have found many good bargains there, some things were disappointing but others have lasted for yearrrrs.

I love your purse and the top, that color is very pretty.

LOVE the charms, I have had my eye on an Anne Boleyn charm from Etsy myself.

I LOVE this royal blue on you- it looks great with your skin tone! I especially love these Elizabethan charms- something my Mum would buy for me. I just signed up for a Uni class that reminded me of your academics- Armoured Female Warrior: From “Night Witches” to “Black Widows” :)
