it’s monday. it’s the last month of school. it’s time to dress in comfortable library attire without lookin’ like a fool.

Now that my final semester of college is coming to a quick end, the projects and studying for final exams are getting the best of my brain this month. I didn’t have enough time this AM to shoot today’s outfit, but here’s a mock up. I’m loving side split maxi skirts a lot lately. You’ve seen me wear them here and here. They’re fun, they’re casual, and a little spicey! I paired mine with a Forever 21 white tee, turquoise necklace, Michael Kors bag, and my Shoe Privee heels.

That being said… let’s get the week started with a Splurge VS Steal action.

Splurge: Michael Kors. Steal: Forever 21.

I spotted this steal over the weekend while I was browsing shopping at Forever 21. Once I picked it up, all I could see was the Michael Kors Jet Set Tote. Minus the fact that it comes with silver detailing instead of gold. But who cares! It’s a $30 bag compared to $200. With that kind of steal, you got yourself a new purse and some extra spending money for what you’ll get this MK bag for. Now that’s a good dosage of happiness to cure the Monday blues. Don’t you say?
