Savers and Susie's Selections....Say that ten times fast

    Friday night, I went to Savers in Warwick, RI while Ken and I were in the area. I was looking at shoes and a lady looking in the same aisle told me that everything was half off that day. What a nice surprise. :) I had already picked out one pair of shoes that was really unique. They are made by HPLA which I didn't find much from when I searched online other than some random ebay listings. They are real suede (tan) with a fringe  and turquoise detail on the back. They have an ankle strap which I found a little hard to use but they are really different. Here's a pic:

        They were marked $9.99, but they were 50% off. I had been looking at a pair of blue vintage pumps that were cheap until I heard about the half off sale. That made me reconsider a pair of Mina dark blue shoes that I'd looked at. They're satin, pointed toe, with little lighter blue gems on the front. The Mina shoes were marked $14.99. Here's a pic:

     

     While I was looking for the mate of  single shoe that I found, I found an adorable pair of sparkly Steve Madden shoes that were in the wrong size aisle. I was glad that I'd been checking the aisles for the other shoe to the pair-although I never did find it. The Steve Madden shoes are silver with a bow on the rounded toe and were marked $17.99. Here's a pic:

        I looked through the pants and sweaters while I was there but didn't find anything else. The few sweater that I found had stains on them, which I know is a risk you take and if it's in a spot that I can figure out a way to cover I might go for it, but they weren't. Wow, that was a long sentence. Anyway, that was it for my Savers deal but I went to a few consignment shops yesterday.

       Yesterday I checked out a consignment shop that I'd seen before called Susie's Selections. It's in a plaza in Abington right on Rte. 18 with a Mary-Lou's and Battleground Games and Hobbies which is a really cool game shop. She even has a website: http://www.susiesselections.com/ . Susie's had a pretty good selection of juniors clothes and tops were separated onto racks by size. There were some cute bags and shoes too, but I only found a few shirts. I kept with my new trend of not trying them on which this time was more for Ken's benefit, so I have pics of me trying them on at home again. The first shirt is a short sleeve mock turtleneck by Ambiance Apparel. It's a khaki color thin jersey cotton and gathers where the neck meets the collar. It was $5.99, here's a pic:

       
      I also found a cobalt blue mock neck but I'm not sure what brand it is because someone cut the tags out of it. It's also jersey cotton but a much looser fit, has the gathering at the collar, bunched sleeves, and the sleeves are longer and gather in the middle. It was marked $7.99 but was 25% off, so ended up being $5.99. Here's a pic:

     The last top that I found is also a cobalt blue and is a 3/4 sleeve sweater from Forever 21. The sleeves have a slight puff and are banded at the bottom as well as the bottom of the sweater. It was marked $8.99 but was 50% off so it ended up being $4.50.  Here's a pic:

     
      Today's deal of the day item and wishlist item relate. It's kind of the high and low end of something that I've been looking for. I saw a pair on etsy and I've been on the hunt since. I really want a pair of oxford booties. I may end up going with the pair that I'm sharing as the deal of the day. They're made by Bamboo which is a brand that I have a few pairs from. They're not expensively made shoes by any means which is why I wouldn't want to spend too much money for them. There are a ton of them out there though. They come in "blush" which is a natural color and black. The heel is about 5" with a 1.25" platform in the front and they boast a non-skid sole. Here's a pic and link to an ebay listing to a pair for $24.99 new with the box: http://www.ebay.com/itm/Blush-Beige-Platform-Lace-Up-Oxford-Ankle-Boot-8-us-/170631874029#ht_4067wt_600

       My wishlist pair comes from Giuseppe Zanotti at Neiman Marcus's website. This pair is has a small peep toe and a 5 1/2" heel. The shoe is snake skin embossed leather to give it a unique pattern and is made in Italy. At $995, they can stay in Italy. lol I can appreciate them from a distance.

Well, if I hope to wake up for work tomorrow I should probably go to sleep. Goodnight readers.
