I have lots to share for What I Wore Wednesday. Also I went to Target last night for random groceries and ending up with some purchases. What's new.
I have been loving target lately. They had these pants which were highly recommended. The other color they had in store in my size was mint! I figured it was meant to be :) my city has 2 other targets so I will be checking them out as well.
Target also had these layering tanks on sale for $6. They are so soft and I figure I can't have too many. I picked up a pink and purple. I also saw this necklace and knew it was mine. One of my shopping goals for spring/summer is to buy more necklaces. I love the sparkle!
I couldn't resist :) I'm wearing my new pants and necklace today. I love these pants. For the price the quality is great. I will be picking up more!
I figure might as well share some outfits from the week as well. Are you loving target as much as I am?

Mint Addict.
Hi. I'm the Shopaholic Equestrian. And I'm addicting to mint green.
.....that felt good :) needed to get it off my chest.
I love mint. I have so much mint green H thinks I'm insane. Pink is still my favorite color but mint is up there with it.
When I told H I wanted to paint our bedroom mint he stared at me like I lost my mind. Then again, when I told him I wanted a grey living room he thought I was turning into a crazy person, and he ended loving it. So I think he trusts me now :)
We did pick a shade and started painting but I'm not going to spoil which shade :)
Left to right we have Icy Mint, Sea Treasure and Beach Blanket. All from Valspar of course :)
Which is your favorite? What do you think I chose?

What I Wore Wednesday!
This week I am linking up with Hannah over at Just Call Me HaHa! ( justcallmehaha.blogspot ) this is my first link up. Happy to join for what I wore Wednesday!
I got this shirt from Jcrew Factory recently, and it's a bit out of my normal comfort zone but I like it! I wore it with BR pants, target belt and earrings, and Vince Camuto (new via tjmaxx) heels.
Hope everyone has a great Wednesday!

Weekend Purchases and Monday OOTD
Ohhhh Monday has arrived once again!
I am loving my Winnie pants from Jcrew Factory. At first I wasn't sure, but after Pinterest searching outfits I really love them. This outfit was my favorite of my finds. Flats are Target, blazer is Charlotte Russe and top is old from Macy's. I would've worn my heels, but my back and legs still hurt from Saturday. (I helped cut down a tree with a handsaw, laid tile and rode 2 horses. Not smart).
I went to Tjmaxx this weekend, and bought a pair of black Vince Comuto heels and a pair of coral pink Me Too flats. The VC heels are so comfortable (as VCs are) and were a steal at $49.99. Total for the shoes was around $85. They also had a pair of mint green Jessica Simpson heels but sadly the smallest size was too big, so I passed them to another shopper waiting to see if they worked for me (and was happy when they didn't).
Hope everyone has a great Monday!

Paint Mistake?
So as homeownership entails, there is always something to be done now. Another project we planned to do that was on the easy side was to paint the guest bathroom.
We decided a peach color would be good. Our house seems to becoming matte colors, so I went to Lowes to get samples of peach colored paint.
As I was looking at the paint cards, an employee informed me that a gallon of Valspar Peach Champagne was made on accident and was on the sale table for $5! Valspar samples run for about $3.50 for a little container, so I thought for $5 for a gallon, why not take a chance? It seemed to be perfect. Got to the register and found out it was $4.50! I thought I hit the jackpot!
Well.
I get home, primed an area and begin to paint and my feeling of being trilled disappeared. It turned out to be more of a bubblegum pink and not a peach like I had in mind and not what the name entailed.
I'm going to see if it dries better, if I'm not happy I am going to donate it to Habirat for Humanity. Oh well. At least it was cheap.
So. This is why I will always pay for samples. Paint looks different on the wall then on the card. No big loss here thank goodness if this does turn into a fail.
Hope everyone had a great weekend!

JCrew Factory Winnie Pant review
I ordered several pieces from Jcrew Factory on Sunday at 8 am to celebrate Lent (and my shopping freeze!) ending.
They had a 30% off sale and free shipping (and 3.5% back on ebates!). Only these Winnie pants came today, the rest of my order is coming separately for some reason.
I paid $34 total for these. My review? The pros are the color and the length. I love this color. I am going to Pinterest ideas later. The length is great also, no tailor for this short girl! The material is of great quality too for the price.
The cons are the side zip (I will have to get used to it) and the low rise (wasn't expecting it). The side zip actually reminds me of my horseback riding show pants!
For reference, these are a size 0. They for fine, if I ever got another pair I would probably size up one size.
The material does not have a lot of give, so keep that in mind if you are thinking of these.
Would I pay full price for these? No I wouldn't. But for the price they're great and will work.
I will show off the rest of my haul when it arrives!
What do you think of the Winnie?
