Monday Sales: Finding New Obsessions
November 16, 2009 by Aly Walansky
Filed under Accessories, Bargains, Beauty Products, Christmas Shopping, Sales/Events
I leave for China tomorrow, and am attempting to pack today. My discovery: I have lots of clothes, but not a lot of what we need.
I think a lot of us fall into the trap of buying mass amounts of similar items (say, in my case, LBDs), and not essential staples, like, good sweaters, or button-down work appropriate tops. And, then, suddenly, you receive an itinerary that reads “smart casual” and you can’t remotely figure out what that even means.
And so, I’m stocking up on the things I really need rather than adhering to a never-ending obsession, and I’m starting …read more

Great Delia’s Coupon Find

A few years ago, I lost a lot of weight – as in half of my total weight, or thereabouts – and the very first thing my friends did when I reached my goal is get me a Delia’s gift card.
Delia’s clothes are very juniors-oriented, and that makes them a limited niche opportunity for us grownups – but they are so so adorable that even now that I fit into them a little less-well, I still can’t help but look!
This week, Delia’s is having a sale: You can save $20 on your purchase of $50 or more when you apply …read more

TGIF: Friday Sales

After this weekend, I won’t be home very much for about a month – I’m going on a cruise launch in a few days, and then I’ll be in China until Thanksgiving.
There’s something about traveling – even when your laptop and major credit cards are coming with you – that make you want to be ultra-prepared before you leave. Who wants to be flying over the Pacific and realize they forgot their must-have favorite bra that works so well with a certain dress? Not me. And thus, I tend to overpack, and over buy.
Which means I need a bigger suitcase…good …read more
Power Up Video Challenge and Giveaway

Filed under Christmas Shopping
I’m going to confess something really shocking to you guys.
About fifteen years ago, when I was barely out of grade school…I had dirty dreams about Tommy the Green Power Ranger. And, yes, when he bacame the white ranger, I still sort of dug him, but he was less fun. Why? Because, well, much like my Angelus complex, I like bad boys. And I can’t kick it. Alas.
(Hey, who remembers that’s where Sarah Brown got her start? She played Heather, the home-wrecker.)
Anyway, Bandai America’s Power Up Video Challenge is a cool new contest that rewards kids for playing with …read more

In the next month, I have a cruise, a trip to China, my birthday, and, of course, the holidays.
Clearly, I need to update my wardrobe, and a few cute new dresses is a great way to start. Dresses are the center of my outfit-planning, largely because they involve no planning. In one piece, I have created an entire ensemble that is absolutely completely coordinated.
Lucky for me, there’s lots of great cuteness on sale today!
