September Saturday Mart Shopping Excursion...

Saturday was heaven for a fashionista-bargainista like moi...Not only did I get to make a trip out to Saturday Mart, which I had been itching to do for months, but I also counted with the lovely company of my Mom.  We both are equal parts shopaholics and fab find detectives, so it suffices to say we were the proverbial children in a candy store and well, as can be expected, we went a little nuts.... However, that's the beauty of Saturday Mart...you can loose control a little and spare yourself the guilt.  Furthermore, I was able to introduce my Mom to the wonderful world of Saturday Mart, and well; she's converted. Haha. As usual, my very first stop was the Mine section where I bought an adorable maroon and navy blue polka dot chiffon blouse by Blue Bird, 2 Trench Coats; one military style in a Grey/Blue and one london mod-fashion in an ivory hue.  I found this adorable brown knitted tunic dress, perfect for the upcoming fall season.  Several sweaters that functioned for both office and casual wear found their way into my bag along with an absolutely ethereal Mine summer dress.  Yes, I realize the summer is over; however, I will not regret it when I get to begin wearing my dress in March...afterall, this Southern California.  A little yellow peasant skirt added a splash of color to my buys.  My mom found several tunic Mine shirts with adorable skinny belts :)   Mid-afternoon we met up with my fashionista conspirator, Karla for yumminess at Gigi's Cuban Bakery and Cafe  where we quite literally stuffed our faces-- As if the day wasn't perfect enough, we moosied on over to Eden Ever Bridal boutique where, drumroll please....I FOUND MY WEDDING DRESS!!!  A gorgeous french fashion inspired Essence of Australia gown that can only be described as a match made in heaven.  To complete a picture perfect outing was my trusty Speedy Girl find, "You're a Gem" mini dress, stellar in its debut :)  Below is my mini dress picture and a shot from me today on my way to work in my new Blue Bird polka dot blouse :)  I look forward to my fashionista blog growing...and I promise better images next time!
