If it’s possible to fall in love with an item of clothing, well, call me guilty. I have.

A few weeks ago I needed very desperately to get out of the house, so I packed Lilly in the car, and we headed to the mall to walk around.

I stopped in Anthropologie (the one where I worked at just four years ago…) and immediately began perusing the sale section. My eyes locked on this yellow lace fabric peeking out from the bottom rack.

I pulled it out and out came this gorgeous yellow, lace tank shirt thing with a fun peplum accent. And, it just so happened to be in my size. It was the LAST ONE!

I ran to the dressing room (with Lilly in tow) to try it on. I put it on and *swoon* – I was in love. I looked at the price tag… $19!!! ARE YOU KIDDING ME?! You can’t even buy a bar of soap in Anthropologie for $19.

It was meant to be.

I realize that it may be a “summery” top… but since when have I ever follow traditional fashion or social norms? It’s rare. So why start now?

AMIRIGHT?!

This is now totally the top I reach for when I need an outfit pick-me-up. I can’t be sad when I’m wearing it.

FACT.

What about you? Do you have an item of clothing you *LURVE* or is your total pick-me-up?
