ugh - not doing so well with this "shopping ban" although I think I need to be on a permanent shopping ban - as others have mentioned, it really makes you think about what you're buying...
so - these Miu Miu boots were on bluefly a while back, were sold out, and I kicked myself for not getting them when I had the chance. I was browsing bluefly this AM (see, that's not good for a shopping ban either! - but their ad said they had all this new stuff - what's a girl to do?) anyway - so I'm browsing, and again kicking myself over not buying those Miu Miu boots - and lo and behold - there they are... I really had to snatch them up... if they've been haunting me for months, then it's probably a good purchase. I used the $10 off code too.
since they have been advertising the cashmere up and down the street, I had to at least look at it... I bought a wrap sweater last year, and absolutely love it and would love to have another - so here's this BCBG classic cream cable number with the wrap sweater styling... had to have it...

And two of these lamps for the bedroom. I've been stalking similar ones at the ZGallerie for like a year now, but couldn't bring myself to spend $150 each. I found these at Bed, Bath, and Beyond for $49 a piece and I had a 20% off coupon! Yay! They're very similar to this:
Went to the Banana Republic outlet store. So much good stuff in there! It was so crowded too. The line for the dressing room had ropes as well as checkout! Got what I needed, jeans and a nice wool jacket and the tee was to make my amount for the 25% off coupon I had.
I have a bluefly credit for that Generra coat I returned. May spend that as well this weekend since I have a few things I have been eyeing.
Okay, here is what I got from Bluefly. I was able to use an expired 15% off coupon from reesycakes too!
But in aqua. I got the last one. Had to get it since I love my green one so much. Hayden sweaters are fabulous!
This 525 America cotton cable throw to go with my new living room with the sky blue fabric that I will officially be ordered tomorrow.
And this lovely Mikasa vase. I had been eyeing it for awhile. I'm going to put it in my office. This is bigger than the picture makes it out. I thought it was small until I saw the measurments. 11" tall and 15" diamter around the widest part.
I made a stop at Ross and found something to add to my crystal collection.
Gypsyfreak- I LOVE your Trina Turk coat. She's my favorite and that color is awesome.
Cole Haan- You can't really tell from the picture, but this is burnt orange. I'm not really a belt person, but I loved the color and think it will look chic with jeans and a sleek turtleneck.
Bakers- SO comfy, a pretty blue-red color and that make my size 10s look small!
And since I'm not doing anything tonight and nothing's good on tv, I just ordered a bunch of stuff from J. Crew and everything I bought was on sale... except the black turtleneck.
(Since I'm now in lust with burnt orange... it was cheap too so I couldn't resist)
i got the same skirt from h&m in deep forest green not planing on using the matching velvet bow (to matchy matchy for me) and i will wear it with prada heels from last season and cashmere theory shell
i orderd these shoes in the green color (so cool and so comfy looking with that wide chunky heel.)

You should have went for a 15% off coupon! You would have saved over $70 on the boots alone, not counting what you would have saved on the cashmere sweater!
Here is the code I used: MISSEDYOU681 (it expired yesterday but I still got to use it today)

I tried that one! it wouldn't work for me! I tried every single one I could find - either they were not valid, expired, or I did not meet the criteria for the code or I had already used the code... believe me, I put them all in including that one... the only one it would take from me is the $10 one thanks anyway

I looked into it, and the one I tried to use was actually MISSEDYOU610, not 681 - too bad you didn't think to enter it into our discount code database! I am going to call them to see if I can get it applied...
*UPDATE* they applied the code! yay!
