I told myself I wouldn’t wear plaid prints. I refused to wear it actually. But, as always in life and in fashion, Never Say Never. Remember my flats aversion? Now I’m moving on to the plaid trend.
I saw this Plaid Babydoll Dress at Wal-Mart for $12. I just couldn’t put it down. I debated with my inner self if I should get it. As you can see, I ended up getting it. I figured I wouldn’t know how I would look in plaid if I don’t wear one, right? I’m not going to necessarily buy all sorts of plaid …read more
Recession Shopping : Hypnotik Black Tunic

The last top I found when I went recession shopping at the “going out of business” Goody’s store is this Hypnotik Black Tunic. It used to be $30 but I ended up paying only $9.96. It wish it was lower than that but oh well.
The sleeves are split with 2-button detail. The banded hem is the one that actually caught my attention at first. I’m looking forward to wearing this come Spring and Summer time. I’d probably wear it with a pair of jeans and heels or flats. I could wear it now but it’s still cold …read more

When I bought my Ashley Judd white jeans from Goody’s the other day, I also found 2 cute tops from the Ashley Judd line. Goody’s is going out of business by the way. They’re selling everything with 50 to 70% off of the original prices. Go visit a Goody’s store near you and hope you find some items you like. Meanwhile, here are the 2 Ashley Judd tops that I found.
Ashley Judd teal smocked short sleeves with keyhole-tie top. It used to be $25 but I only paid $9.96. This teal top would look beautiful with the white …read more

If you haven’t heard it by now, Goody’s is going out of business. The website is not even available anymore. It’s really sad because I love that store. I’ve found great brand name stuff (polka-dot dress, Breakin’Loose white dress, etc) there in very affordable prices. If you remember, Ashley Judd’s collection made it’s home at Goody’s in 2007. From tops, jeans, coats, and bags. I’ve always wanted to get my hands on an Ashley Judd item but they were still a little pricey for my wallet.
Now that Goody’s is going out of business I figured I might as well …read more

Style It Less Shopping : Tops From SEARS

I was just crossing Sears to get to the Radio Shack store but saw the sign “80% off already reduced items” or “50%”. Well who can say no to that. Actually, Sears have had their Sale for a while now but haven’t had a chance to peruse their stuff coz I’m always just crossing the store to get to somewhere else. But the 80% off tag couldn’t be avoided …
Hot Tempered Leaf print top with flutter sleeves. On sale for $6.99, minus 50% off, I paid $3.49.

I told you this $15 SELE Colorblock Dress was mine, didn’t I? . It came really fast. I ordered it on the 23rd and it arrived on the 25th. Standard shipping and handling fee was $6.95. I love this colorblock dress. I love the panels of green, black and blue. Check out the braided straps? Soo pretty. I give 15DollarStore 2 thumbs up. BTW, when you buy a dress at 15DollarStore, check out the sizing chart. This medium size dress is actually size 7/9.
You have no idea how that makes me soooooo happy, especially when I tried it …read more

I don’t care what anybody says, I love my Floral tops, heh. Here’s a couple more I bought along with the Hot Tempered Blue floral top I bought a week ago.
1st Floral Top : Another one from Hot Tempered. This is fuschia, scooped neck and a solid brown color wide-sash belt that ties around the back. It used to be $30, I only paid $7.90.
2nd Floral Top : This is from Self Esteem USA. A combination of chocolate and blue color as well as a combination of floral and polka-dot prints. I figured a long sleeves floral top …read more

I have reasons why I love boleros. They never go out of style which is why they’re part of my 50 Fashion Trends List. No matter what year you are in, boleros will always make certain outfits complete. They’ll keep you warm on the days you don’t necessarily want to wear a jacket but still want a light cover-up. AND, boleros hide the big arms that I’m happened to be blessed with. These brown and red boleros are from Say What NY? brand. They were on sale for $5.90 each. They used to be $30 each. I figured …read more
