My Top 10 Buys of 2013

I know most of you are deep in the middle of Christmas shopping so I thought it would be the perfect time to share my favorite purchases this year. All items I swear by and love. They would be make great gifts for anyone including yourself!   This year I tried to be more selective about what I bought.  I am trying to edit my closet and only have things I really love.  More about investment pieces and less trendy items.  Here are my top 10 favorite purchases this year (although a few were gifts given to me).

I lusted after these boots forever before finally taking the plunge and buying them during a Shopbop sale.  I have to say they are honestly the best booties around.  They are comfortable, not too high of a heel and go with everything!! I have them in gray and my mom just recently brought this dark brown pair back for me from Chicago.  They run true to size.  They are on sale in a burgundy/brown color here.

I stand by the fact that these are the best leggings I have ever purchased.  They offer so much support and really suck you in, super flattering.  I have been wearing them everyday post baby to try and suck my stomach back in and I swear its working.  Even if it is not my tummy looks flat while I am wearing them.  They are totally on the expensive side for leggings but I swear they are worth every penny.

I know I rave about these often but they really are some of the best jeans around.  Super flattering and comfortable.

I love the look of the D'Orsay flat this year and while I loved the Vince version I just could not bring myself to pay $300 for them.  This Chinese Laundry pair is amazing, so comfortable.  I wear mine practically daily.  They are on sale right now at Nordstroms too for only $44!!



I recently purchased this purse and I am smitten with it.  It is the perfect large size to toss all my stuff and the kids stuff in.  I love that you can carry it as a tote or fold it over and have a smaller cross body bag- the best of both worlds.  A fabulous everyday purse.
I ask for these slippers every year for Christmas and for some reason never get them.  Last year after Christmas I used some of my Christmas money to finally buy them and it was the best purchase ever.
I wear them all the time, they feel so soft on my feet and I think as far as slippers go they are cute.  Best slippers around I tell you.

I have to admit I am not a huge jewelry person, while I love jewelry I tend to gravitate more towards everyday pieces I can wear all the time.  This was a birthday gift and one of my favorite necklaces.  I love that you can layer it with longer necklaces or wear it alone.  Such a simple piece that also stands out.

Ever since I saw this dress floating around on pinterset I knew I needed it.  I have worn it so much, pregnant and not pregnant.  Such a great everyday dress.  They don't make it with the tan pockets anymore but the black version is available and onsale for 30% off!




:: JOIE MARLO BLOUSE::
This the most versatile blouse.  It is longer so you can pair with leggings or skinny jeans.   I have the blue color and wear it all the time but now I want the dusty pink or silver color.

:: TKEES FLIP FLOPS ::
By far the best flip flops ever.  I own the nude color and wear them all the time.  I plan to buy another pair for this spring.  So comfortable and they go with everything!

Lastly SHOPBOP is having up to 70% all their winter and fall merchandise!  You can check out the sale HERE!
