Hellooooo Mr. V-Neck! (Photo courtesy of The Sartorialist)

Happy Shopping!

One-Stop Bargain Shop

I think my influence on my sisters tends to get a little out of hand at times. A couple weeks ago I went bargain-hunting with my sister, godmom, and aunt to look for some stylish coats. My godmom found a really nice Miss Sixty coat for a ridiculously good price @ Burlington Coat Factory. The only issue was my sister. I have a feeling that my insistence on buying very specific, unique items has rubbed off on her and thus created a monster. She wanted a short peacoat in a color but every peacoat we saw was just wrong, wrong , wrong. I don't know if she'll ever find exactly what she's looking for and will consequently have to settle for something different and then 2 months later she'll find the coat of her dreams but she'll have already spent the money on the mediocre coat. Story of my life! I mean her life.

Anyway, I told her I would make it a personal mission of mine to find the perfect peacoat and then I stumbled upon The Limited . I haven't been to this shop since I went on a work-wear shopping spree last year. I forgot how much i loved the clean lines and precise tailoring, and how good their sales were. What do you know, they have a whole range of short peacoats in fun colors. Search over! These are very cute, and now maybe she'll shut up about the coat. J/K I love my sisters. :)


While I'm there, I might as well load up a shopping cart with some of my favorite items:




Whoa! My promo code saved me $149.50 on my fake shopping cart. Well, as long as a I have the coupon I should actually buy something....need cocoon coat now!!! I know where I'm going this weekend.

Cuff Love

I'm back from my whirl-wind weekend of costumes, spider-taming, real-estate agent impersonating, and spontaneous New Year's Eve planning. FYI, I will be spending NYE in San Francisco with a few super-fun ladies at an event presented by CrawlSF. I'm so excited I could burst! My only concern is finding the perfect outfit which I will post about later because my brain is too scattered to focus in on one idea.

In the meantime, I've been pre-occupied with some newly-acquired shoes that I should be receiving any day now. They are a replica .::coughKnock-offcough::. of these fabulous Louboutins:

I am a member of the Shoedazzle club and, until recently, I was pretty disappointed with the selections but now they have redeemed themselves. I'll keep the membership for another month, I guess....

As soon as I saw these I knew I had to start formulating some outfits to pair with the fab booties. Light Bulb Moment!: I've become infatuated with cuffing my skinny jeans lately. This was a direct result of my laziness to get them hemmed, and the five-pairs-of-jeans outcome of my endless search for blue-jean alternatives. So what does a girl do with five pairs of cuffed jeans?...Show off my boots, of course. There is no better way to display your cute boots and shoes than pairing them with short pants. I've also incorporated some cuffed suit trousers that I had stuffed in my closet from last year. It's like my wardrobe has been re-invented and I couldn't be happier.

Here are some budget-friendly cuffed-pant options that I've come across, Enjoy!:
