Officially Back in the Swing :)

   When I said in my last blog that I was sharing "most" of the deals that I'd gotten last weekend, I was just saving a few for my next post. I also took another trip to Second Time Around last Sunday....I know I'm completely addicted to their shop. In my defense, not only did I get a great deal on both items that I bought, but I also finally remembered to set up a frequent buyer's card. The way that it works is that for every item you buy that is over $10, you earn a point. After 10 points, you get $10 off of a purchase. For anyone that shops there nearly as often as I do, it's a great idea! On Sunday, I found a sweater-dress in a color that I love to wear, mustard. It's a great color for us redheads. :) The dress is a little short so it will look really cute with a pair of leggings or jeggings, or a tighter pair of dress pants underneath for work. It's a little loose through the waist but looks great with a belt, which is how I found the belt that I also bought that day. I tried it on with the dress (I know it doesn't match lol)  just to see how it would look with a belt and ended up really liking the belt too. The dress was only $9 and the belt was $5 but was 20% off because it had been there for a while. That's one of the beauties of shopping consignment. If it doesn't sell, it gets marked down. Here are pics of both:

        I'm thinking of adding a new section, at least to most of my posts for deals that I've gotten in the past since I remember where I've bought most of my clothes/shoes/etc and how much I paid. Today's blast from the past hehehe comes from last winter. I bout this cardigan at Ragz in Middleboro which is also one of my favorite consignment shops and is where I consign my clothes. I had seen the sweater when it was regularly priced and thought it was really cute but didn't buy it. I saw it again the next time I went and it was half off, and that was the deciding factor. It's from New York & Co. and was marked down to $3 or $4 which is a steal. I love the color which is like a pea soup green, plus it's argyle which I also love. The thin lines through the argyle are actually hot pink which is usually what color I wear underneath to accent it. I would definitely say it's one of my favorite sweaters. Here's a pic: 

       For today's deal of the day, it was a toss up. Both shoes are from the same website and have the same print, in opposite patterns, and are available in both patterns. I hope that made sense. haha I haven't bought anything from this site yet but it has come up a lot in my shoe searches so I thought I should check it out. Also, I've seen shoes on etsy that people have bought from this sight and then customized. Both pairs of shoes are faux suede and are available in black or white zebra print and are priced at $20.99. The first  pair are booties with a  5 1/4" wedge heel with a 1 1/4" platform in the front. The toe is an almond shape and they zip up the sides for an easy on and off.  Here's a pic:

The second pair is also a faux suede bootie and has 5 1/2" heel stilletto heel with a 1 1/2" platform in the front. They also have an almond shaped toe and side zippers. This pair is lined with faux leather and describes the inside as lightly cushioned which sounds promising.

           Tonight's wishlist item is something that I found on Betsey Johnson's website. Her stuff is really cute and quirky. I found this clutch and thought it was adorable. It's a hand held clutch with a big set of lips on it. The main part of the clutch looks like pink leopard print though the site says the color is black?? I guess I don't have to worry since I won't be spending the $88 for it anytime soon. ;) It sure is pretty to look at though.

That's all I have for tonight, but I'm really trying to commit to posting regularly. So keep checking back, follow me if you want updates of when I post, and leave me some feedback. :) Goodnight.
