My shopping spree - wooo!
Permalink Closed

(okay where did my post go?  I tried submitting and it's not there??)


Anyway, a few of you wanted me to post what I got for my end-of-ban/birthday spree.  Here is the damage.... and I must say I felt guilty buying so much after not buying for a while. 

From Neiman's Hip Event, this Juicy crochet hoodie:


NMOS5_-0CBN

and the super destroyed Havanas:

NMOS5_T09LC

I had a $200 credit from Christmas so I only spent ~$160 on both items, and I got the free gift bag, yay! What sucks is they didn't have my size in either item so they had to be ordered and I won't get them for another 7-10 days.  Oh well.  BTW, for those who are interested, the bag is a silk beaded fuchsia tote.  Inside was a 7 for all mankind baby tee, Marc red tank (super cute!), Laura Mercier bronzing gel, Diane (DVF) lipgloss, theory boy shorts, Juicy mirror, etc. etc. 


From Rampage, I got a pair of super cool linen culottes with metallic gold threading woven in.  They are too cool.  They were having buy one get one half on on their jewelry so I bought a long beaded necklace and shiny bracelet.  They also had a "spend $75 get $15 off" promo so I spent like nothing there.


I ordered some stuff online too.  I used a coupon code on EVERY single thing I ordered.  Yay!  This is a great time to buy ladies!

I got this skirt; it has tiny sequins. I hope it fits!

These C.Ronson shoes. I couldn't decide and the bop code was too good so I took advantage before all the ever-popular size 7s are sold.  I won't keep all three, I promise!

do you feel like you've saved overall? i mean like not shopping for a long time and then finally splurging? i'm curious because i wonder if this kind of shopping style would work for me.

Fab choices, as usual!  You need to start posting in the style thread so we can see all of your great outfits (and lust after you drool-worthy designer pieces).

Your choices are amazing, as usual. The Bulga is especially nice.


I agree with FP. I'd love to see your outfits in thread style!

Thanks for the great feedback!  I want to post in thread style too, I just haven't gotten around to it.  One of these weekends I'll surprise you all with a ton of pics :)


dot, I definitely did save money overall.  I'm from the South but live in the Midwest so come January I'm ready for warm weather but have to wait three months before I get it :(  So, this always got me buying tons of spring clothes super early to cheer myself up.  I keep a spreadsheet of all my purchases so I was able to see all these items I was buying in Jan/Feb that I couldn't even wear till April.  That was part of the reason I decided to semi-ban until my b-day this year.  This helped me prevent a lot of impulse buys.   Last year I determined that Jan/Feb and July/August are my low months when it comes to shopping anyway (spring and fall arrivals).   By March, much cuter stuff is out and the resort and early spring collections are all on sale.  Not to mention there seems to be so many coupon codes around this time of year too!  


Also I didn't really spend that much because I'm very fortunate in that I usually get birthday money from my family.  Usually I buy myself a nice purse.  Two years ago I got myself the off-white Marc Jacobs Anouk and last year I got a ginger Gisele Luella. This year I went for a less expensive bag so I was able to get more elsewhere.


gagnec1, the skirt is Charlotte (who makes those fab beach pants).  I bought it from Active Endeavors.


I can't wait for everything to arrive! (If I can successfully get my packages from my UPS guy, who happened to ask me out last week.  No I will not go out with him.  But I sure hope things don't get weird; I can't stand to damage that relationship!!).
