It's Dress Season!

Today is officially the first day of Spring! Y'all- ready?


Bleach from Walmart, this from Kmart-



Norma Kamali ($20) at Kmart! Cute & simple. Since its jersey, I know it fits and wears well. I adore jersey dresses & love anything simple enough that you can dress it up with accessories. So let's imagine we're getting off work. We wore this earlier to work with a cardigan (if you don't have at least 1, you gotta get some!) and we have drinks with a couple of the girls. No time to go home but we need to turn up the look-



I can remember kids getting laughed at in elementary school for wearing Payless shoes. Anyone who buys these will be the one laughing now-$24.99! Patent leather, sexy heel- no brainer. Grab those bangles I was talking 'bout and be ready to sip that Cosmo.


So, its a Saturday morning. There's a flea market, brunch & farmer's market you gotta hit. You need something you can wear all day and be comfortable while fly all day.



I'm sure you are up on Asos.com. They have lots of sexy, affordable everything to wear. I love details so this dress with the oversized bow in front is a french toast, eggplant & vintage picture frames getting outfit. Plus you can't beat the price- $29.31!


I'm still laughing so here's another pair of shoes from Payless that I'd wear with that dress



$22.99- ? Ummm... you see where I'm going? This whole outfit was about $55.00- that's more money to spend in the streets!


I decided a while ago I wasn't participating in the recession so I am anti the term Recessionista. However, its always smart to look good and keep your pockets in tact... keep shopping!

17 bucks

I haven't been blogging lately (as you can tell). I decided not to participate in the Recession however my employers may have decided different. I have been keeping my purchases to a super minimum which kinda has me going through withdrawal. Yesterday, my family & I did dinner and a trip to Marshalls (a bargain hunter's paradise). I escaped by only spending $17! Check out my best purchase-

Sequined stuff is still pretty hot. I blogged over a year ago about all the shiny stuff I'd been buying. French Connection started advertising a few fly ones that are still online. There's one in particular that I loved- "Funky Petal" that's still $160.29 online at 6pm.com.


Guess who got that same dress for $10?! There are some raised beads & gold sequins in addition to some great patterns. Since I got it for 10 bucks, there are a few loose strings but the money I'll spend tightening them up is is waaaay less than the cost it still retails for. This is great with some liquid leggings or bare legged- either way, I got a deal! Tell me about what you've been buying on the cheap-
