weekday shopping 12/01

bought a bcbg dress from bluefly for my favorite holiday party (dinner in the dining room at meadowbrook hall see slide 9)



I plan to wear my black pearl jewelry with it, and probably black tights/pumps.  It kind of reminds me of Kate Middleton's engagement dress, because I'm a sheep that way wink

Haha it does look like KM's dress!

Nothing for me, just gifts

I got these for $12 for my 14 Yr Old sister:

D-I really like that dress. But I'm biased because I also loved Kate's engagement dress.

BQ- if your sister is anything like my teenage cousins, just seeing the name "Juicy" on anything is enough to make them squeal in delight.

I ordered some coffee for presents (and OK, maybe a few bags for myself...) It's roasted by an order of monks in Wyoming.

I also bought my father a camera for Christmas. I was thinking of upgrading my own to a DSLR and he mentioned that he'd like my old camera if I do.  So I thought I'd get him his own to play with.

I seriously need to find myself a psychiatrist. I am most definitely a shopping addict. no

Bought these during Amazon's Black Friday sale:

51e2dkQBNCL._SL500_AA300_.jpg51Hl9pW6OeL._SL500_AA300_.jpg

Dexter S2 & 3 for my brother.

Went to Target yesterday for some entertainment:

Got these in MUA swaps:

2nd is Bobbi Brown eye liner brush

Used my Sephora $20 off $40 purchase card:

Used my beauty points for Philosphy set (which I'll break up & add to presents)

P274925_hero.jpgKate Spade Twirl in Roll-On version, for my SIL.

Christmas present from my parents to me. I bought it during Layla Grayce's Thanksgiving sale so I got the base & lampshade pretty cheaply.

I have a Sonicare toothbrush and mold builds up between the handle & the brush head. Eww. I was paranoid about the mold somehow getting on the brush head. So I bought a Supersmile electronic brush which apparently is designed so water doesn't get in between. 20% off + 6% cash back made it a pretty good deal.

Doesn't include the toothpaste.

NR006-gooseberry-oil.jpg
Bought some hair oil as well.

I'm seriously going to try to refrain from buying things except for Christmas presents (for others, not myself!) and a winter coat, which I need b/c mine is too small. Boo. ashamed.gif

I got this set as well and selfishly decided to keep it for myself.  I am loving the scents!  I'm glad I saved my points bc the 500 pt Beauty Perks have been cruddy thusfar.

Also, I <3 Kate Spade perfume.  It reminds me of being in a field of flowers.

I have been doing very, very bad on shopping for other people, except that my in-laws got taken care of with plants and trees - avocado and artichokes for BIL/SIL, lemon tree for MIL, weeping blue atlas cedar for FIL.

At Goodwill:

- Express Design Studio pinstriped slacks, hardly if ever worn and cheap - five bucks?
- Massimo Dutti pinstriped suit, a Spanish designer, 20 bucks - retail on these is several hundred dollars I believe.
- "Unaccustomed Earth" short stories by Jhumpa Lahiri, 99 cents.

At Cost Plus:

A few small gifts for my friends' daughters, some gourmet gifts for the parents and my brother, and wine.

Old Navy had a 20% off Stuff and Save promo going so I took advantage to get a bang for my buck on the charity gifts I neeed to buy.  Bought a bunch of those $5 embellished tanks for add ins on the teenagers I received.

I also have an adult woman who's age I don't know, so I thought a sweater like this would be a safe bet.

Went to Marshalls and bought them some Body Shop bath gels and cross body bags too.  I'll pick up some cute earrings or other accessories and I'm done!


I had a 15% off coupon at Loemann's so I stopped  and fell in love with a charcoal cashmere Theory scoop neck sweater.  It's so soft  and warm, yet thin enough to tuck in to a skirt.  And it's just the perfect length to wear with a skirt, jeans or leggings.  It looks something like this one only a little longer and with full length sleeves.

I wish I could keep it for myself! I might keep one, but I get super dry skin in the winter & I have keratosis pilaris, so I can only use certain body washes. I figured it would be a good way to beef up some Christmas gifts though! They have had crap perks, even the 100 point ones have been sucking for quite a while. Most of the time when I buy something I don't even get one.

I was super tempted to keep the perfume for myself, but I have way too many! It does smell nice though.
