Weekday Shopping!
Permalink Closed


I know it's Christmas, and I feel wrong shopping on a day when I already got lots of great presents. But I've been waiting for a cash flow for a while now to be able to buy a few bras...which Christmas provided.

Anyway, it's not pretty but it's soooo comfortable and I can't wait to have this - I have the nude one now and I look forward to every day that I can wear it!



ETA: More on the front of not-especially-pretty but very-especially-practical underthings:

I went ahead and got these.  Can't get 'em out of my head!  I like the grey peep toes too but not sure if they are right for Spring/Summer wear which is what I'm shopping for now.

I went and tried the top on in the store since mine is on it's way.  Love it!  I'd get other colors, but I only like the blue.


 The freebies are fab.


I cashed in my winning scratch and lotto tickets and went to AE to redeem my $10 money card and got:

But in a pretty lavender.

Hit the B&BW sale:


 


Okay, no more shopping.  It was just Christmas afterall!

i went to saks for their sale (which was imo just "ok") i did get this top for a steal of $30, though. my top is black with this collar:



eta: i couldn't decide between these two tops, but since nap has free returns, i ordered both:





and coh kelly jeans:



fyi the dvf top is about $40 cheaper at nap than saks, so it basically paid for the shipping. (which imo, is really expensive)

Hi Ttara.  I agree that the Dream Tisha isn't very pretty but I have it in a soft pink and it looks much better than the beige.  They also make it with lace edging now to pretty it up a bit.  Its a great bra for support and shape.

ttara123: I have 3 Dream Tishas and I don't know how I got through life without them...best support ever and the nude ones are invisble even under 1 white Hanes wifebeater. I guess they're not the cutest bras ever but they are still way cuter than what full-figure bras looked like 15 years ago.


I needed basics so I took advantage of the J. Crew sale. 






ETA: an ebay score (they were $22)...I'm sure that people will think that yellow patent is fug, but I can't wait to wear it with charcoal gray and denim.

I hit the outlets:


From J.Crew I got a lovely grey, hip-length, military style, double breasted coat- it has epaulettes on the shoulders, I love it. I also got 4 of their basic rib tanks, they are my favorite. I tried to look for a pic of something similar on their site, but i've been getting "page not found" for about two months now whenever I try to access their page.


From Jockey I got 5 bras at $1.99 a pop!


From American Eagle (not an outlet, just a regular store at the outlets) 4 pairs of underwear, marked way down.

I have vowed to buy no more heels, I'll still wear the ones I have, but no more new ones, my feet suffer too much.  I went crazy at the Dolce Vita Sale.





I probably shouldn't have bought the same shoe in two different colors but I was having a hard time deciding which I wanted more.

My mother and I hit up a couple of Gaps and Jcrews in the city to stock up on basics and spend gift cards. 


From Gap:


and this was only 4.99 in the store


And a black coat for only 50 bucks that I don't see online.


Then JCrew I really needed some basic sweaters: I also got a denim skirt and fingerless gloves and knit hat. They had some great deals at Jcrew if you need sweaters!


And (saving the best for last)...I made a major investment! This beautiful Edith Chloe bag! I'm in love and now I can fit my laptop and other stuff in a single bag for my weekly flights and being onsite with my clients (I hate laptop bags).

Did a little more thrifting yesterday, from Top Drawer Thrift:



  • Paisley print KL skirt

  • Red wrap dress

  • Black l/s k/l dress

All for a little over $10.00, they were having a 50% off clothes sale, so..... I went on a good day.

HAD to get these from Dolce Vita, hehe....


For once, Old Navy had some stuff that I like and actually fits right.  Woo!


(one black, one dark green)


From the Chanel counter:


 Mascara that has some weird name I'm too lazy to type out. 


In Enchanting.  The container has already provided hours of entertainment for me.  It's too cool.
