addicted to flats

How cute are these BCBGeneration flats? Loving them. Still grounded though. Doesn’t mean you shouldn’t benefit from a good sale!

what I want wednesday

January 27, 2010 · Leave a Comment

What I want this Wednesday is:

DRESSES!

I just bought this plunging v-neck dress for $20 in black, and I am stoked to get it. Seems like it will be very versatile and wearable.

But I also have my eye on this sweaterdress, because I can’t resist sweaterdresses!

So much for being grounded, eh?

temptation tuesday

I’m obsessed with sweaterdresses, and right now I’m itching to pick up this one. It’s a Wool/cashmere/nylon/elastane blend by Ralph Lauren, in wearable grey and just $37.

But I did just buy a Maggy London dress yesterday. And I’m still supposed to be grounded.

What I Want Wednesday – an exciting look alike

January 6, 2010 · Leave a Comment

I’ve been in love with these Jimmy Choos for a very long time. I love the keyhole, I love the back zip on the heel and the way that that will keep your foot firmly in place. I do not love the price so much.

Stumbled across these today, and I think they’re an awesome representation of most things I loved about the Jimmy Choos, and at 1/20th the price! Plus, a much more wearable, versatile black.

Sophisticated any occasion dress

January 5, 2010 · Leave a Comment

I have to cut back on the impulse buys for awhile, or else I’d snap this up. I’ve become addicted to dresses, and this one I can picture myself wearing in a wide variety of scenarios. Pretty good deal, too, at 40% off. Maggy London is also the designer of my bridesmaid dresses, so I know I like her stuff already.

Large number of sizes left at the moment!

Thrifty Thursday

December 24, 2009 · 1 Comment

When else can you get tall dress boots for $50? Almost never! This is a

great deal from Aldo, and you should hop on it. I’m super tempted myself, but alas, I’m still grounded from shopping and technically have black high heeled boots already. Great thing about Aldo shoes: super comfortable.

I may still cave. I’m a bit undecided on the toe. I think I’d like it pointier.

*Update* I went for it! I actually bought them on Amazon – Free Shipping!

Stuart Weitzman shoes. Soon to be MINE.

$69.95 for Stuart Weitzman shoes, $99.95 for Stuart Weitzman boots. I just ordered these on impulse, and still have no regrets. Quickly now, 6pm sales are typically for one day only, and supplies don’t last long (especially when it’s 75% off Stuart freakin’ Weitzmans!).

YES!!

Nine West shoes, large selection for just $9.95. I was so happy with my last purchase from 6pm, I think I may just go back for more.

And I highly recommend you do the same!

Best shoe deal ever!

let’s be practical

November 16, 2009 · Leave a Comment

I’ve been thinking about stocking up on some basics. In Minnesota, basics means sweaters for the winter. Can’t do much better pricewise than these sweaters for $15 – $18 from JCPenney, and in crewneck, v neck and turtleneck.

what I want wednesday

November 4, 2009 · Leave a Comment

Ok. I try to only seriously consider buying reasonably priced clothing items. I really do. But I’ve been obsessing over this dress for awhile and I just can’t get it out of my head. I love the cut, I love the bright colors, the pattern and the back. At least it is 40% off. Another 6pm.com find!

Length on the mannequin is a bit weird, but I’m only 5′4 1/2″ so it should hit me nicely at the ankle.

I guess I am just obsessed with maxi dresses.
