Short wish list

It's a good thing I do have some self control and realize that clothes and shoes are not the only things that make me happy...there are bags and accessoreis too.  :)

But they do make me smile!
P.S. Mom, I have some sewing projects for you...





(to keep things simple all clothing pictures are from Newport News and the interior pictures are from a Benjamin Moore paint blog, Living in Color)



Aldo distracted for an hour this morning while Bryce messed with our speakers and sub.






















I just realized I titled this 'short wish list.'  It might've started out that way...

Deal of the Day

It's that time of year again. Sales are abounding and Bryce is ready for new clothes (he's ripped the sleeves on a few of his shirts). I usually sneak in a couple looks here and there and found, might I say, the Deal of the Day.
Place: Ann Taylor
Item: Yellow three-button coat
Where in store: on clearance of course - with an additional 40% off
Unexpected: one loose button
Sale sticker says 79.99. Take 40% off and I showed the cashier the loose button and received another 15% off. $43 after tax for my coat.
Big surprise: Original sale tag is for 199.99. Original retail is $268.00 That's about 85% off the original price of the coat. Not to be out done, I did find Bryce some mighty good deals as well. Bass had $60 pants for $23 (50% w/additional 20%) and they had shoes BUY 1 PAIR get 2 PAIRS FREE (or get 1 pair 50% off). We received $5 dollar coupon toward Van Heusen from Bass and used it to buy a belt for $8 - originally $45 or something crazy like that (60% off w/additional % I can't remember and our $5 coupon). He bought another very nice pair of pants there as well.
