Okay, okay, I broke down yesterday and bought something completely overpriced and frivolous. Granted, the final cost was under $25, but it was only for a pair of tights after all – and not even on sale – gasp! I just had to do it though. You see, the J. Crew herringbone tights that I [...]

Bloomies Shoe Sale
Shoe-aholics who love a good deal should click their way on over to Bloomingdale’s, where they are offering the following promotion for TODAY ONLY:
$50 off $200 of shoes
$100 off $300 of shoes
$150 off $500 of shoes
The only thing that irks me about sales like these is that they aren’t a consistent percentage off. You [...]

The Jaws of Defeat
…Or should I say, da feet. It all started about a week ago when I was perusing Endless to help a friend locate the perfect wedding shoe. It’s no secret that I’m in love with shoes and I’ll take any excuse to shop my little heart out, so I was more than happy to help [...]

Pretty Baubles I’d Like To Buy…
Is is possible for a lack of money to be burning a hole in your pocket? If so, my pockets are scorched. My wardrobe feels fairly complete, but my jewelry box does not. I had many fabulous pieces of costume jewelry that I’ve collected over the years, which suited me just fine. Then, early last [...]

To Blow, or Not To Blow?
My birthday money, that is. Allow me to explain:
My mourning period over the demise of Domino ended yesterday when I receive not one, but two new issues of Lucky in the mail. The March & April issues were flooded with fabulously chic finds with budget friendly price tags. After spending hours poring over the first [...]

Confessions of a Shopaholica
As with last year, 2009 is shaping up to be another big year of saving for the Mr. and me. While this is a good exercise for our savings account, it’s excruciatingly hard on my inner shopaholic. Beautiful things are everywhere, and on SALE everywhere! From gorgeous chocolate silk drapes (which we actually caved and [...]

To Buy or Not To Buy?
Now that we are *officially* in a recession, shopaholics everywhere must search deep within their souls and answer a pressing question: to buy, or not to buy? Do we buy because all of the best designers have slashed their prices by 70%? Or perhaps because it’s practically our civic duty to jump start the flailing [...]

When In Vegas…
As I’ve discussed before, 2008 has been a struggle to overcome my shopping habits. I can admire and gush and rant and rave about fashion as much as my little heart desires, but my plan was to cut back on buying as much as humanly possible.
In recent months, I’ve been so consumed with wedding [...]

Whore.
I hate, hate, HATE to be a label whore – but unfortunately, I have been reduced to just that. Valentino’s latest collections of bags and shoes makes me salivate uncontrollably. You think I’m joking? Yesterday I saw a woman walking down the street toting her Petale bag and my head whipped around as I had [...]
