Re: BU: Fashion find

  • I'm trying to save money by not buying clothes, but I really needed heels for a night out with my friends, so I bought these black suede ones at Target for $30:

    I could see them being okay to wear out to dinner or something, but for a long night out in Manhattan, they were awful. I was practically in tears by the end of the night!!

  • PS: I love your new coat, I've always wanted a white winter jacket!

  • Those shoes are really cute, but I can see how they could get miserable for you. : / 

    Thanks! I love winter white coats, and have been eyeing something like this FOREVER. Now I just have to worry about keeping it clean.

  • Ohhh, Congrats!! I love white, especially in coats. I got a nice one from BR about 5 years ago and still wear it. I do have to get it dry cleaned pretty often though. Oxi-clean spray will get anything out too.

    I also scored today. Someone must have sprinkled J09 with shopping dust! I actually got a really good looking faux leather black bomber jacket at a little boutique here for $60!!! I could not believe my eyes! It was the only one in the store--meant to be :)

    I also found a really nice looking bag at Old Navy of all places! It's similar to this. They actually have really good looking bags in stores right now, I was shocked!

  • Cute bag! I swear our ON only keeps half an inventory. I can never even find bags there. 

    OxiClean -- must remember this! I'm sure it will have makeup marks on the collar in no time.

  • I approve, even though a) it's not from shopmamie and b) the last time I shopped at rue 21 was in 7th grade and I bought a green sweatshirt that said "Whatever...".  my little way of sneaking some Clueless into my wardrobe.

     

    Just kidding - I actually went into Rue 21 last Halloween looking for a dress for my Charlie Brown costume and was shocked at how cute everything was.

    I'm wondering if I should be sad that I didn't know Rue until I was in college -- which either means it came to my mall late or I'm just really old. I love that you sneaked in any Clueless-related clothing. I bow to you.

    I was thinking of that shopmamie coat all the time I was buying it. It's not exact, but pretty similar. While you're blog whispering tomorrow, check out Rue's site under Jackets. I think you'll be pleased with the plaidness. :)

    This is so true. ON's selection really varies from store to store. In Orlando, I lived by 3 ONs and they all had such different inventory. Sorry yours sucks :(?
