Beautiful Savings

This is one of the outfits I'm so excited about wearing because of the story behind it. Working at Zara I'm sure you all understand how much I freak out every week when new things come in, and of course with all the new winter collections there are so many beautiful things in the store. Now this silk poncho was in our store in the back room forever...and all of my coworkers knew I wanted it. The problem was the prince - $160! I could never afford it. Well I got a call that it was on sale for $40!! How could I not?

So, the next week I bought it. It's mine forever and I'm in love.



Silk Poncho; Zara
Wedges; Target
