I hit up the mall today and got some cute cheap things. I bought 4 tees from Wet Seal, each $10.50 and they are LONG which I love. I also got a bunch of jewelery from Windsor, Wet Seal, and Forever 21. Here are some pics:
in silver and gold, sorry the picture is fuzz, I am not the best photographer.
I jsut went shopping for some pub crawl gear. Each year my town has a "pub crawl" the sat. before st. pattys day. basically we walk to every bar in my town. It starts at 11am and goes all night. Such FUN!!! So me and my girls went and got green hoody's, white cloth scarfs with green polka dots for our hair and iron on transfers to add to purple totes that say I'm a little Irish. I know we are dorks but we get dressed up every year and since it is cold, we rock the hoodies and sneakers for the numerous miles that we will be walking while intoxicated.
I know I broke my shopping ban again, but the skirt was on sale and I had a 20% coupon code to Spiegel. I just hope the pink in the sweater matches the pink in the skirt.
two ethnic style gold necklaces with green stones in them
From Sun Walters trunk show (it rocks to live in Los Angeles sometimes )
$8 (orig $28)
I'm a dork, but the light blue matches the pinstripe in my brown Alvin Valley pants.
$21 (orig $38)
I've been obsessing over Pink Spike tops for the longest time and they're worth every cent! They have the most adorable curve-hugging fit. I'm wearing it right now.
$31 (orig $51)
So cute IRL...great quality for the price. I got a great trench for an Old Navy price.
I thought the bag looked like Isabella Fiore and it was only $16. The top is actually more peach-y than in my picture and is pretty sheer.
At Macys I bought Clinique boring basics- Wash away gel cleanser, Deep Comfort body lotion, and Super City Block. BUT there was a bonus Since I love to take pictures, here's what I got: standard aqua makeup bag, Lash Doubling Mascara and Lash Building Primer Duo, Happy Heart Body Butter, Super Balm in Grape Tint and Raspberry Tint, SuperDefense Mosturizer, 3 eye shadows, and a Clinique "C" (also my last initial) keychain that can also hold the lip glosses.
gold ballet flats from Target (seriously the most comfortable shoes ever!!)
stila smudge pot in plum... since my idea of trying a new stylist closer to home backfired and landed me a soccer-mom haircut, I needed something to make myself feel better about my look.
did a lot of window shopping, but really didn't see much that I liked or felt was worth the money.
After looking FOREVER for a pair of shoes for my friend's wedding (the dress is matte jersey, so a lot of formal shoes didn't look right), I found these Franco Sartos at TJMaxx. I love them - they are so comfortable!
- Gray juicy velour hoodie with the dog logo, since I really needed a gray hoodie & I am obsessed with dog stuff.
- My mom bought me a really cute pink blazer from Forever 21 as my valentine's day present (pics are in my outfit thread). It was $39.99 though. Since when do things at F21 cost $39.99?!?!
-my sister and I got my mom an outfit from NY&Co for her birthday.

I'm trying to put it to an end though because I want to save my money for a rather expensive purchase (a new lux bag) anywho.
Here is the damage
This DKNY skirt color
but in a deep PINK color...looks much better than this brown very pretty.
Really hot blazer from H&M..has sort of a tapestry look..to it..hard to explain but it is hot.
this blazer from delias that I've been lamenting over whether or not to buy it. One of my best friends ones a similar one and I've always admired it.
these leopard print shoes
in exchange for the zebra ones..thanks for talking me out of those guys...I absolutely hate them now :) not sure what I was thinking!
I found the most awesome jewelry maker on ebay!
I've bought four items so far from him
and a couple of tees and etc to wear as layers.. I think I now have enough for my transition into spring look (that is always hard for me when we are in between seasons)
