But NOW I really only want to focus on having things that I really love. Don't get me wrong, I still want to own them at a good price, but I don't want to own them simply because they are a good price.
For that reason, when they sent my prospective items for my summer trunk, I declined a few of them because I knew I wouldn't love them. But because I use the trunk experience to stretch myself, I accepted anything I was on the fence about. After all, this is all about trying things someone else selected for me.
Here's what came in the trunk and how I felt about them
These jeans are Kut from the Kloth, a brand I really love. They are a super cute cut and I love the rolled hem.
Jeans and Top |
I am wearing them with this red peplum top. I really liked both of these items. But the jean section of my closet forced a veto on the jeans. But the red top made the cut.
The jeans are currently on sale for under $65 and the top is on sale for under $45. Unfortunately, I only found the top in black to link here.
I also got this floral top with tie sleeves
Floral Tie Sleeve Blouse |
Then these white jeans.
White Jeans and Striped top |
Now these had a chance because I actually need a pair of white jeans. And these were nice. I loved the fabric.....but all the sweet heat bbq chips and loaves of bread I have consumed, vetoed these. I am beyond buying clothes to lose a few pounds in order to wear them. Not that I wouldn't like to lose a few pounds, but my only goal can't be to wear these jeans.....so they went back. As did the top because literally the day I opened my trunk, I was wearing a top exactly like this in a yellow stripe.....so I didn't keep it. But it is a great top....speaking from experience and it comes in several color options.
This is a fun little skirt and cute with the puff sleeved top.
Skirt and Top |
Both of these are moderately priced and would be fun to own. This little outfit is exactly why I do the whole Nordstrom Trunk thing. I would never have picked this out on my own.....but I loved it. The skirt was super comfortable (it has pockets) and just a fun style. I am so glad this was sent to me. It was by far my favorite piece. And the top is a simple little navy knit top that I also loved. When I pulled the link it was very limited so if you are interested in it.....go quickly.
