daily steals † lana del rey style

this post is furnished courtesy of the nordstrom half-yearly sale. i'm going to be honest, i'm a little eyebrow-raisey over half-yearly. is that different from biannual? what is yearly and why do we only want half of it? what about the other half of the yearly? if it's yearly, why is it half? i understand yearly sales, and i understand half-year sales, but if it's half it can't be yearly too.

these are the things that keep me awake at night.

the good news is that there are a lot of cute finds in this mysterious sale. i present them to you now.

i love the sheer, chiffon trend this summer. it makes me want to do my hair in loose curls and pretend like i'm lana del rey. just without all the relationship drama. i have enough going on between remembering to feed my cats and showing up to work on time.

$25.90 † Frenchi Sheer Chiffon Shirt Dress

$19.90 † h.i.p. Chiffon Maxi Skirt

two bandeaus for the price of one! unfortunately, i don't think that means you get to wash it half as often too.

$19.90 † Free People Reversible Bandeau

$19.90 † Lush Tie Front Embroidered Cutout Top

$19.90 † Lily White Lace Trim Tap Shorts

now for some candy-sweet accesories. 

daily steals † asos festival (almost) under $30

$20.87 † Johnny Loves Rosie Metallic Floral Headband

 

$24.35 † Ashiana Statement Necklace 

 $24.35 † French Connection Key Cluster Long Pendant

 $31.31 † Love Bullet Red Bead Mortar Bomb Necklace

 $31.31 † Brat & Suzie Butterfly Dress

my favorites are definitely the french connection and love bullet necklaces. i was thinking that it's nice to have some pieces with color around these parts, then i realized that really only the last two could be stretched to have a description of colorful. (go to gala darling for color. i like my monochrome.)

the key pendant would look so cute with the butterfly dress, no? if i saw a girl flouncing around in that in a festival i would have heart-eyes at her all night long. 

heads up † all under $10, free shipping

attention shoppers, there is a sa-- okay, no, i won't go there. BUT where i will go is to plndr, a division of karmaloop that currently has a ton of shit under $10 with free shipping to boot.

if you're quick, there are a few really neat finds. i'm looking at this vest that's 91% off and down to $10. i'm not quite sure how i'd style it but i think it has potential.

$9.99 † Fur and Fringe Vest in Brown

i'm definitely going to pick up one of the hellz bellz tees. i've loved that brand for a long time (for any kpop fans out there, the girls of 2ne1 wear that brand somewhat regularly) and it appears to finally be time for me to own a piece of heeellllll........z.

$8 † Authentic Shit Tee

don't be afraid to shop from the men's section if you're a ladygirl (or vice versa, for the ladyboys.) fashion knows no gender, as kurt hummel says. seriously, it's just fabric. you're cutting the potential power of your wardrobe in half by limiting yourself. (wait, isn't that the argument they use for bisexuality too?)

here's a cool find from the section of man.

$6.99 † X-Ray Skull Tee in Black

one more thing i've got my eyes on is this watch. things that are sort of kitschy like this are very hard to stick a date on, which makes them wearable for a long time. my fear of all things that include color fortunately doesn't apply to accessories, because this is rad.

$8.99 † The Voxxx Mr. Wrister Watch in Light Blue

** if you're not a member of plndr, there's little harm in signing up. i'm wary of membership-only sites, but plndr isn't too annoying with emails and the sales are great.
