First off, yes that’s my stomach roll. I’m not a photoshop expert by any means so no air-brushing here.. LOL. No matter how many crunches I subject my abs to, the damn thing just won’t go away. Blame the chocolate and my love for food and cooking(and wine, hah). Alrighty, moving on…

I actually found something for Fall when I Spring sale shopping at Sears last weekend. I spotted this grey plaid skirt from Covington collection for $4.99. Originally selling for $36. AWESOME. Gray is supposed to be the Fall’s color trend so I’m slightly incorporating it in my wardrobe. Just slightly though. Not going overboard since I like my clothes to transition in any season and any year, . Anyway, back to the Covington skirt. I’m going to wear it tomorrow to Church for our Homecoming with my dark blue MOD blouse from CATO and the black knee-high boots for …read more

I LOOOOOOOOVE it when SEARS has their $4.99 Clearance Sale. I once raked in Apostrophe skirts and Canyon River Blues jeans for $4.99 each. Well, the store is having those sales again so I took advantage of them this past weekend. I didn’t go all crazy though. I had to think whether the “trend” for next year’s Spring/Summer season will match the stuff I bought. So I got a couple of dresses that fits that criteria. I saw some skirts I wanted too but they were too big. Dammit. I might have been too late in getting my hand …read more

For some reason, this navy blue floral top with wide sash belt from CATO is showing as black in the picture. Oh well. I swear it’s blue . I love the square neck and wide sash belt. And of course the sale price of $9.99 from it’s original price of $14.99.

I just wore it with my L.E.I Ashely low-rise jeans. And once again, no necklace. I’m feeling bare on the neck all of a sudden these days, heh.

I’m really starting to like CATO a lot. I’ve bought a lot of stylish clothes from there lately in very affordable prices might I add. First was the white cropped pants which I bought for only $12.99, the white eyelet summer dress which was on sale for $13.99, and then the dark blue MOD fitted blouse for only $7.99. Now here’s another one(among others) I dug out of their clearance rack the other day. This brown floral smocked tube top that actually ties on the back was only $4.99. I wore this yesterday and I felt so pretty …read more

This Vista brown flare trouser is my first pick when I entered the Steve and Barry’s store from our recently concluded Upstate New York road trip. I found it in the Clearance section and as soon as I saw my size, I grabbed it immediately. $5.49 for a trouser, Come On. Too bad they didn’t have it in black as well. There were pink ones but who wears pink trousers these days? Well no one under 50 anyway. This Steve and Barry’s pant is the main reason why I opted to buy a classic piece from Sarah Jessica Parker’s …read more

My family and I are leaving tomorrow for a 1 week vacation in Upstate NY. So I won’t be posting during those times. I could probably check e-mails using my mother-in-law’s computer but other than that I’m going to enjoy our vacation without internet. Well I will try anyway, . I hope you all miss me and my bargains. I originally thought of posting scheduled entries but I don’t feel right not responding to your comments right away and if I post any bargains today, by the time they’re posted, the sale is probably gone. So in …read more

I’m following(copying, whatever )in Sasha’s footsteps and declare my own love affair with dresses. Next to shoes(except sneakers and flats), I go insane over dresses. Classics, prints, different fabrics/cuts/styles, bring ‘em all. I wear it during Spring/Summer season with heels and wedges and during Fall/Winter with my knee-high boots. I have my own collection, albeit shoes takes more precedence, I’m slowly getting there in having quite a reasonable selection. In this inset picture(I cropped my hubby’s picture out), I’m wearing a black halter print dress that I found at AAFES years ago for less than $20 I …read more
