Slip Dress




I have had my eye on this one for quite some time now and today it is finally mine. As I was walking up to the register at Nordstrom Rack, there it was! Marked down from $88.00 to $34.98, this Free People slip dress is still full price online. This color shown is Tea and there is a Coral and a storm color also available online. This dress is so versatile, it can be worn with almost anything. I am so excited about this buy, Im going to wear it all day!

Minnetonka Sandals




T J Maxx always has current styles that we all love at a lower cost. Today, I picked up these amazing Minnetonka suede sandals that are perfect for spring and summer. There are many other sandals and wedges for sale right now at T J Maxx stores. These were compared at $60.00, and I got them for $34.99. It isn't my best deal to date, but I know I will get lots of use out of these when the weathers great, and hope to go back later for some other fun shoes.

Circular Copper Accessory




Just picked up this copper necklace/belt from the Free People Store. Online it is priced at $298.00, but I only paid $49.99! I have wanted this for a while but thought the original price was much more than I wanted to spend. Hopefully the online store will put it on sale soon, but if not, go check out your local Free People store. Their sale prices are usually much lower, so if you can wait for it, buy it on sale. Dont forget, some items never make it to the sale rack, so if its a instant "gotta have it," then just get it while its there.

Crossroads Trading Co.





From LA to NY, this second hand clothing store is a new favorite of mine. I have been to the Crossroads Trading Co. location on State Street in Santa Barbra and also the location on Ventura Boulevard in Studio City. The Studio City location takes the cake for me. It is organized by style and color, and by size for pants and skirts. The store is huge and has a great selection and there is something for every style. I found some great gold sparkle American Apparel leggings, high waisted jeans from Urban Outfitters, and a short floral Free People dress. It seems like these items together might total at least $150, well I paid $22! Everything that i bought is very lightly worn, and I dont even think the leggings have been worn. If an item has been in the store for a while it get a stamp that marks the piece as half price. I highly suggest checking out this store, and hope your luck is as good as mine was!

Accent Rugs

When looking for a cheep and fun way to brighten up a space, rugs are a great accent you should look into. Pier 1 Imports carries a variety or rugs for as low as $12.95. The rugs that appear in the images are 2 ft x 3 ft. They are a fun and beautiful option to use to give a little dimension and a little texture. There all all different shapes, sizes and colors available. I find that at Pier 1 Imports, there is always a little something for everyone at affordable prices.

Maure and Eve Platforms

These orange suede and wood ankle boots are available at the Free People online store. They were priced at $328.00 and are now on sale for $49.99. They are also being sold in black. These look great with a dress and also can be paired with a blouse and skinny jeans. These are a steal if you ask!

Planet Blue; Blue Moon

Going on now, Planet Blue stores are having a 50% off everything in store sale. There are a variety of items being sold, including tops, dresses, skirts, dresses, jackets, scarfs, and jewelry. After looking through the clothes, I found this multi-colored Blue Moon dress I absolutely loved. When I noticed the $187.00 price tag, I knew with even the discount it would still be more then I wanted to spend. A friend then informed me that if you say LA NATIVE when you are checking out, then you will receive an additional 20% off! I proceeded to check out and then was told by the sales girl, that Blue Moon items were all being sold for $45.00 and that was without the extra 20% discount. I walked out paying $30.45! So go get out there and check out the great deals at the Planet Blue stores.
