Latest Zara

I do almost all my clothes shopping at Zara and Target. I really do find things that look just like the expensive stuff that is out there; the key is to shop the other places and get a firm idea of what you want to add to your wardrobe FIRST, then shop the less expensive places and look for specific items.  I swear to you Zara and Target has the same stuff for about half the price. And with Zara, you try it on and return for FREE - so easy. Here are my latest Zara adds to my life....love...

belt one out

I adore belts more than any other accessory. I wear dresses almost every day in the spring and summer and when you are unhappy with your arms or your thighs a floaty dress nipped in at the waist is a super flattering, feminine look. 
I don't know if you guys saw the new Matchbook Magazine - I flipped through it quickly and was obsessed with one page - this Topshop dress and Alexander Wang corset belt.
I can't imbed the photo but you guys can go see it. Anyhoo, trying to do it but in more fresh, nude and gray tones, I got this lavender dress from good ole Topshop:

And am now scouring the universe for a gorgeous nude or brown or gray corset belt that does not have laces or any reference to the Old West. It is tough. My number one fave would be this Sass and Bide one from last season:

Which, of course, is nowhere to be found, like the Alexander Wang. Your friends at Alaia make belts like this:

And they cost upwards of $1900 bucks by the way...that is a used car in some places so no thanks. I finally bought this one from Asos but the only size they had was large so it will probably be too big and may be too bondage-y for me...

But I like the peachy nude color and that it is different. Anyhoo, help a sister out if you have a suggestion!
