Dressed for Less - Airy Date Night

I've been wanting an outfit for a night out that is just airy and not so heavy. Nothing too flashy, nothing to bulky or tight. And here's what I've come up with.
Staring at Stars Lace Kimono Blouse from
Urban Outfitters $69
 I love this blouse because...well, how could you not? its airy, light, and sheer. Throw a shirt underneath if your a little more modest or rock it by itself. Either way, in love with this.
Kimchi Blue Chrissy Short from
Urban Outfitters $49
When I first saw these shorts, I honestly was like wtf, how are these blue? but hey, Urban Outfitters knows what color they are! Anyways, I wanted a pair of shorts (definitely) to go with the lace blouse because it portrayed such a laid back appeal.
Nine West Snowdrift Suede Bootie in Taupe
from DSW $39.93

No words.

This is a beaded vintage ring and a layered banlge ($5.80 - 4.80) both from forever21. They add to the neutrality of the blouse but don't class with the shorts.
Giani Bernini Handbag - Canvas Wristlit
from Macy's $30.99
This outfit needed some color. This bag has enough of it. And if those shorts really  are blue, there's some cohesiveness there. And there you have it. An outfit I'd wear on a date, hands down. And, as part of my Dressed For Less aspect of the site, all this came to a total of $199.52 (without taxes and such, obviously). Don't forget these pieces. In order to make sure you spend your money's worth, some items will be featured in multiple outfits to show just how you can put each of these pieces.

Neutral: Great Heels, Better Prices

I'm new to wearing heels. Actually, I've never worn anything over a 2/3 inch wedge. I have a shoe fetish that Im waiting until I can buy my own clothes to dwell in. So, until that fateful day, here are the shoes I love, where to get them, and how much of a steal they are!
Great Heels for Better Prices

The first two heels are from Zappos : (1) (2). The third heel is from Alloy: (3) and last but not least, I had to include a wicked heel thats just amazing from Ebay: (4)

All of these shoes are under $100 and are neutral so sticking them with an outfit should be quite simple like I did here:
Simple yet Stylish, from the base heel
Here, I took the heel from Zappos and made an outfit! Here's the info!
Necklace and Earrings = Costume Jewelry /Dress = Urban Outfitters /Clutch = Overstock.com

Now, for my personal contribute. I love a floral pattern. I'm a total sucker for them. My wishlist for school included like 5 shirts with an overall floral pattern. It's just a new found love for me! Now, I stuck the green clutch in to take up the small amount of green found in the dress. The earrings and necklace just tie the green together. With a cute hair accessory, this outfit is of total quality. Such casual attire for such high end ladies.
