Welcome the newest member of my closet - the Saint Laurent patchwork blouse! Here's a quick recap on how it came to be in my possession:  I bought a pair of boots in Net-a-Porter's End of Season sale but they didn't fit and I had to return them.  After returning them I got a notification from eBay that an item I've wanted for months was relisted! It was listed for $599.99 but I got th

In stark contrast to yesterday's post, I love this outfit!  I have been wanting to wear these Tabitha Simmons boots since I bought them in July and was waiting for the perfect occasion. It seemed like that would never happen, so I made the occasion and just wore them on a plain old regular day! They retailed for $1900 and I paid $74 after being very patient! I had seen them at Roundabout a

This past weekend I went on a blogging date with Lydia, Amber, Christine and Tiffany! We went to lunch at my favorite restaurant, The Chowder Pot, then took some outfit photos (which you'll see soon,) and finally did a bit of thrifting! First up we went to Coco's on the Green where there are tons of great designer pieces! They were having a 20% off everything sale so I was hoping to find somethi

Yesterday I went to Westport for an appointment and stopped by Roundabout's Westport location on the Post Road because an ex-coworker had told me about it. They carry so many designers, from Chanel to Hermes, Lanvin, Phillip Lim and so much more! It was like walking into a candy store! They had a gorgeous Chanel jacket for $500, but sadly it was a size 14...  There was also a sale going on:

As I posted in the beginning of the week I got an AMAZING deal when I went to Nordstrom Rack with Courtney, Lydia and Christine! I am delighted to share with you my newest item: a Theyskens' Theory leather jacket!!!  I did some research and I believe it is the Juno which retailed for $1150, I paid $172....that's 85% off! My strategy is to comb the clearance racks and go through my favorite s

Let's talk about consigning.  Don't know what it is? Well Tiffany of Lady G's Closet (short for Lady Gryffindor, which makes me a fan right away) is here to explain the process!  Lady G's Closet is an online consignment shop run out of New York City. Consigning is a great way to recycle clothes you no longer want or need, someone else gets to enjoy it and you get space in your closet fo

Hello ladies! Since everyone is always so surprised to find I get a lot of my designer items really cheap on eBay I decided to post some recent finds. When I get bored I like to scope out ebay for pretty things I won't need. Then I proceed to "watch" them and never bid (unless I really love it, of course). So instead of saving all my finds for myself and not even taking advantage of them I figur

So...as you all know The OUTNET's $2 birthday sale was yesterday and I was one of the lucky few who got a ticket! SCORE!  Anyway, I was at work so I had to warn my boss that between 11 and 12 I may have to stop working for a few minutes to get a designer item for $2, luckily he was totally fine with that, ha ha. So starting at around 10:50 am I began to panic in preparation.  At ar

Since last weekend was the last one in January I decided to be bad & blow the rest of my budget instead of being a good girl. Saturday I went to DSW and Marshalls with my Mom and sister. I must have had Tahari on the brain [you'll see why]. On Sunday I was supposed to go shopping with my friend, but that didn't happen so I did something else...
