Happy Monday! How was your weekend? Mine? As Tony the Tiger would say, “GRRREAT”. Of course anytime I get to spend time with friends is just wonderful, but throw my kids in the mix and we are talking one happy mama.
I recently did a SAVE vs. SPEND post and y’all seemed to really like it. Yay! I guess you guys like finding a good bargain as much as I do. I’d like to make this a regular thing as long as I can continue to find enough options to share.
I like to look for pieces that come at different price points allowing everyone to achieve the same look according to what fits their wallet. I gotta’ say, this time I found some really good comparisons that are super affordable and perfect as we begin to make our transition from hot to a little cooler weather.
I have the “save” camo pants and love them. They are really comfortable and a fun twist to my typical every day jeans.
Both versions of the cardigans are very similar. I purchased 2 of the “spend” from Nordstrom during the sale and really like them. They are a great length, very comfortable, soft and I actually like that the pockets are on the outside vs. being placed right at my hips on the inside, where they tend to add unwanted bulk like some other sweaters I have do.
I will tell you though, if I hadn’t already purchased the two I did, I’d be really tempted by the one that looks almost identical from Target. The Target option (shown below) comes in about 12 colors and a few of them are even already on clearance for $16 and some change.
I’ve also ordered the “save” pair of animal print espadrilles and hopefully they’ll be waiting for me when I get home.
You can find shop all these options here…
I always love a good save vs. spend post and this one was grrrrreat!!! I want to wear my camo pants now! Love the picture of you and the kids. Erin’s hair looks awesome, she is becoming a Richardson blonde!!!

Me too! What’s better than a deal? I’m so lucky I get to visit them pretty frequently. Makes the distance so much easier. Happy Monday!! XO
Some great research were, Lisa. I love those cocoon cardis, I’m really surprised they aren’t around over here though it’s probably just a matter of time. Like your stripey top outfit, are you wearing boots already?! Hugs, x.
Thanks Mary. It’s fun hunting down bargains! I only had on the booties in the pic to show them. Not pulling them out quite yet. Still plenty warm around here. Hope you’re having a great week! XO
Glad you got some family time in! 🙂 Y’all are the cutest in that first photo! And, I LOOOVE that mustard cardi paired with the blue/white striped dress. Ok, I am pinning that one! 🙂 Def. inspired me!

Thats Carrie! I’m in the Nashville airport heading home today. Always hate leaving them, but time to get back to normal. That cardi is a good one and available in so many colors for such a good price. Happy Hump Day!!! XO

What a wonderful week for you, and I love the camo pants. In fact, we must totally be on the same wavelength because we are wearing camo on the blog too!!
