Zara Semi-Annual Sale Finds & OOTDs (From Friday)

I hope everyone is having a lovely weekend!  Before I get into this post, I wanted to remind everyone about the $50 SEPHORA Giftcard Giveaway. This giveaway requires a little more effort than just commenting, but it's definitely worth it because I think you'll find that the KartMe website will be really useful in your everyday life and you'll be happy you signed up.  Go to my giveaway here.

On Saturday I was really sick (to my stomach) and had to spend most of the morning and afternoon at home until I felt better.  It was awful.  I hate being sick on weekends because I feel so unproductive.  I did start feeling better later in the afternoon so I decided to check out the Zara semi-annual sale. It was actually nice to get out of the house for a couple of hours after being home all day.

I ended up purchasing two dresses that I had tried on during previous visits to the store but didn't buy. I was so glad to find them on sale.  

First was this pretty white dress:

It's a linen material and I love the way the fabric is layered at the bottom.  The dress is lined but is quite sheer so I got a nude-colored slip today at Target for under $10 to wear underneath it.

The second dress is a really body-hugging style but I love the sleeves on it. Not sure if I will keep or remove the bow. It's quite flattering on, but I might need to get spanx or something because it's not very forgiving.
I assure you that both dresses look better ON than they do on the hanger. I will do some OOTD's with them soon. They were both on sale for $29.99 each.

Speaking of dresses, I wore my Express tiered ruffle dress that I got last weekend out for dinner on Friday night. I paired it with my J. Crew belt and Michael Kors wedges (I just love his shoes...and hangbags and watches...)

I also have another OOTD from Friday (during the day). I wore a bright-colored dress from target with a long open-faced cardigan from Charlotte Russe and my J. Crew ballet flats:

...and a BIG HELLO from LULU!

Did you score any deals at Zara?  I actually wish I would have spent more time looking through everything but the store was so crowded!
