It's been a while!

  Okay, so it's been over a week since I've posted and that is some serious slacking so I'm going to have to make up for it with today's post. I'll start with my favorite part, the deal of the day. :)

  So, shoe searching online for a deal I went to the usual suspects and then went to a few department store sites that I like, like Macy's. Macy's tends to have a decent clearance section online and they're always sending me emails about deals with free shipping or an additional whatever percent off. lol Well, I was scrolling down a long list of clearance shoes (I tend to click the view all to avoid having to go through a million pages) and I saw them. Yes, "them", the rain boots that I've been waiting for. I have a lot of shoes that don't fair well in the rain so I've been trying to find a pair of rain boots that meet my standards of cuteness and such for a while. Well, I found them. They are def out of my normal price comfort zone, especially after paying less than this for 5 pairs of shoes last weekend..., but they're Guess and they're gorgeous! See for yourself in the pic and check out the link if you like them and you have little fee because they only have 6s and 7s left. The link is http://www.macys.com/catalog/product/index.ognc?ID=496862&cm_mmc=Google_Feed-_-2-_-22-_-MP222 and I'll let you know more about them in 3-6 business days. ;)

    As usual, I found a really cute bag on Macy's website. It is made by Style and Co. which is a brand that my aunt swears by. If she likes it, it must be good. hehe Anyway, it's a mini bag with a long chain for a shoulder strap and two shorter chains for handles. The bag is in one of my favorite metallics- pewter...and it has multiple animal prints on it in black. Basically, it's just awesome. Here's the pic and the link: http://www1.macys.com/catalog/product/index.ognc?ID=502215&CategoryID=28274&LinkType=#fn=sp%3D1%26spc%3D156

    Now, for some of my personal bargains in the past week or so: I went to the Galleria mall and popped into Forever 21 since I hadn't really been in there in a while and I wanted to see if they still had this navy and gold striped sweater that I liked. No such luck on the sweater, but I did find the shimmery black dress from my previous post, the one with the pockets and the belt. I got that for $9.99, and these shoes for $10.99:
I will admit that the heel on these is a little high at 5" with not much of a platform in the front but they are adorable with the bow and peep toe. Also, they have a subtle glitter shimmer to them that is the same as a pair of flats that I got from Forver 21 a while ago and I wear them all the time. They go with everything but they also have a little flare to them.
   Right next door to Forever 21 is Wet Seal. They always seem to have their buy one get one for a penny clearance sale going. (not that I'm complaining, just hard to pass up) Well, I found a pair of great silver leopard print heels with a peep toe and side cut outs. The heel is about 4" with a small platform in the front and they run a little big because a 6 1/2 fit me. Since the shoes were $14.99, I paid $15 for them and a sweater. The sweater is an asymmetrical navy blue (one)long sleeve with a ruffle on the shoulder. It fit like a dream so for a penny, I couldn't pass it up, as previously stated. haha I took a pic of the shoes but I haven't worn them yet. I really should have gotten a pic of the sweater on. Don't mind the lame pic, I'm being lazy and took the pic on my bed.


  
   I'm sure my next post will include more personal pics since I've been on quite the shoe binge again, but I'm just uploading one more today that are from my own collection, and another stock pic to avoid a lazy one. For my birthday, I got two new pairs of shoes and one of them was a pair that I'd been looking at at Charlotte Russe since before Christmas. I just wasn't willing to spend the money on them. They're a faux suede bootie with ruffles up the front. The best part is definitely the color though. They're a great shade of teal that I have several shirts that go perfectly with them. :) They have a 4 1/2" but they have a 2" platform in the front so they're super easy to walk in. The website only has them in the nude color, and they're down to one size but I've seen them in stores if you want a pair for yourself. I def recommend them! Here's the link:

    Okay, so I've started a sort of wishlist. Some of the things on it are things that I don't plan on ever actually purchasing, just dreaming about. Some of the things are just a little out of my comfort zone some I'm going to do a lot of dreaming before any purchasing. :) One of the things on my wishlist is a Juicy Couture charm bracelet. They actually have several different varieties of it that I like, but this one is my favorite: 



   Alright, so I've saved the best for last. I was at Just Looking on Friday, which is a consignment shop. They are in Raynham across from Bob's and Taco Bell ( I recommend everyone to check them out) and they always carry a few really high end bags. I tend not to bother looking because Coach, Louis Vitton, and Dooney aren't really my style for the most part. Well, on Friday, they had a Juicy Couture bag. That's my style and I love Juicy! The bag must have been unused because it was in pristine condition without a mark on it inside or out. I knew I had to have it. Despite it's slightly over $50 price tag, I splurged because I knew I would never find that kind of deal again.Sure enough, I was able to find the exact bag online and the retail price on it was $185.00 and they're selling it for $113.00. Even on Ebay, it's tough to find a Juicy bag for under $100, especially in brand new condition.
