It ain't easy being green...

Unless you are a fantastic pencil skirt on the fabulous Emily, then it's all rainbows and unicorns.

It's no secret that I obsess get attached to ideas easily and then I can't get them out of my head.

Kind of like that LMFAO song Party Rockers...

...dang it if I can't get that song outta my head! It doesn't help that I have two little munchkins that think it is the best dance song *EVER*...I've seen that YouTube music video more times than I care to count. Why yes, I am a terrible mom for letting my children watch that...but it's hilarious to see them "dancing" and yelling "everyday I'm shuffling!!!". (c:

So back to the subject...honestly, I don't know why anyone reads this sometimes...but I became seriously obsessed with this outfit:
And not any less obsessed with this skirt...





Freakin' J Crew.

So since I wasn't going to cough up $120 for their version, I found this on cyber monday for half off and VOILA!

An outfit knock-off was born:


I should've gone for the yellow heels, right? I *knew* it!

I love that color! It does look pretty fabulous with the yellow pumps but the ones you are wearing look great also. Cute blog.

Dang it. I want that skirt! Can I have it?

On a side note, what size shoes do you wear? I happen to have some super cute bright yellow heels that look brand new (I wore them once)...but my feet grew with my last baby, and sadly they don't fit. :( but they can be yours!

I'm still in love with the veridian green skirt, too! I keep hoping it will magically go on super sale and I'll have money and we'll all live happily ever after... sigh.

I love yours too, though. Perhaps I should check out Limited this weekend!
