Whatever our income level, we all have those unreachable brands that become the Utopian fantasy of our shopping existence.
Badgley Mischka is one of those brands for me. In this current economic climate, there’s a scant few who can rationalize paying close to a grand for a dress, no matter how, well, grand it is.
But right now at ideeli, Badgley Mischka is on sale for over 80% off, meaning that dresses currently selling for around $1,000 are around $200. Now that’s more like it.
Take for instance this fabulous Badgley Mischa Jeweled Neck Long Dress at left. It retails for $1,095, but …read more

Merry Christmas to all the shopaholics out there. I hope you all are having a fantastic day, celebrating with friends and family.
I’m of the opinion that a girl can never have enough handbags or enough shoes. Thus the reason, my closet it is overflowing and I have purses that still have tags on them. Is it an addiction? Probably. Is it fun? Definitely.
My handbag collection consists of bags in all sorts of shapes, sizes and price points. From a wicker shopper that I bought an estate sale for $3 to a Marc Jacobs satchel in brilliant blue patent to a …read more

It’s time to go looking for that next “must have”. Here’s something that I’m drooling over!
Okay, maybe drooling isn’t the right word for this week, but I do love this dress. It’s gorgeous, it’s the right length for my 5′ 4 1/2 half inches that I always push up to 5′5″ and lastly, you would get so much mileage out of this dress. And those problem areas of the body… they will be nicely camouflaged! Don’t you love it when you find a dress that will do that??
