The Problem Is...

I want too much. There will always be something cute and I will always want it. I've come to realize this. And here are just a few of the many things I've got my eyes on...in no particular order.


Granted, this looks like a boring plum cardigan, but what you can't tell from the photo is that there's no buttons, so it's pretty relaxed to wear. I tried it on a couple of months back. I should've bought it, but my basket was filled with other things. From Target.


Here's the thing. I pulled these photos almost two months ago. So these skinny jeans you see here? Yep, already mine. Plus, another pair in the Bullhead Solana. These are my first pair of skinny jeans and I don't know if it's skinny jeans in particular or just these pairs I purchased, but they are not staying on me. With every step I take they slip slowly down, making my crotch area look funny and I'm constantly having to pull them up. A size down felt uncomfortable and looked painted on, but this size falls off me. What the heck? Other than that, I like them. From Pacsun.


Thinking this rug will be perfect in Lucero's future bedroom. I want the biggest one they offer, but it's not cheap. We'll see. From Target.


I've been on a dress kick lately. And by lately I mean since I became pregnant with Lucero. I don't know, something about motherhood made me want to be more comfortable and not wearing pants. Enter the dress. So here are few I think would make a great addition to my closet, though I don't have a place or event to wear them to. That's ok. It's good to be prepared. From Lulu's.




I saw this top in person three weeks ago, but had already spotted it online before then. I didn't buy it. I guess I was practicing restraint. Now I'm kicking myself. From Forever 21.

Spotted this little number for Lucero. Guess what? It's already her's. Yep, bought it. She needed a splash of orange in her wardrobe. Plus, I think this may be the outfit for her fall harvest pictures. From GapKids.


Tights. Essential for Lucero's fall wardrobe also. Though I haven't brought myself around to buying her these. Oh well. Also, from GapKids.


Also was digging this pair of flats for Lu, but then found another hot pink pair on clearance. Still these are cute. Anyone else want them for their little one? From...you guessed it, GapKids.

Black and white stripes are big, in case you missed it. I think they've been in for awhile, but typical me, late to the party. Nonetheless, spotted this tank online and then bought it when I made a visit to the nearest Forever 21. Yes, summer is gone, but this tank still works for layering under cardigans, blazers and whatnot.


Back to my dress kick, Forever 21 is a great source for inexpensive party dresses. However, unless you're 17 or a supermodel (or both), a lot of them are probably not appropriate due to the short length on many of them. When I saw this dress in person, it was indeed short, which is why it went back on the rack, but oh, if only I was 17 again.

I have reason to believe this dress is longer and I have reason to believe it should be mine. If my calves weren't so skinny (or more like non-existent) I would pair it with some cowboy boots and wear it to the rodeo. From Forever 21.

Another blogger, can't remember who, featured this skirt in a real-life outfit. She made it look good. I don't have many skirts, but I'm definitely digging this one. From Forever 21.

Why don't I just rename this blog "Bev Hearts F21" 'cause this top is also from, you guessed it, Forever 21. See, my issue is I don't have a lot of patterned tops or dresses. Most of my clothes are solids, which can equal boring in some cases. I'm trying to mix it up by adding some prints. This print would make a great addition, no?

More tights for my lovely little Lu. These are from GapKids, but guess what? I already bought her a pair of brown textured tights, but they're from Walmart, which made them about $2 cheaper, so I also got a pair in red and cream.


Spotted this dress for Lu at GapKids. It would be perfect for the days when mommy wears her stripe dress (not pictured, from Express, on sale). Unfortunately it was not at a price point I was willing to spend.


And lastly, to show my Red Raider spirit, this T needs a home in my dresser drawer.




And there you have it, my latest wants. I know it seems coincidence this list came out right before my birthday, but sorry, I had been intending this post for like two months. Not joking. Anything yall are dying to add to your wardrobe?
