It's that time of year for the Nordstrom shoe sale....40% off clearance merchandise. It's a great time to score some nice prices on some even nicer shoes, if you have some extra dough lying around your wallet....which currently, I do not. At any rate, I recommend this sale to anyone who has feet!!
Happy Shopping!

I heart Salvatore Ferragamo
OKAY.......one more post for the day & then I am done, I promise!
SALVATORE FERRAGAMO is having their "factory store" sale for Labor day weekend (last day of the sale is 9/1/08). The factory store would be the locations at your local premium outlet mall. in my case, the closest location is in Cabazon, just outside of Palm Springs.
Handbags, my weakness, are 40-60% off retail prices. I have been known to come home with a fantastic deal during such sale events! I know these handbags don't come cheap even at outlet mall sale prices, but they are awesome! Who would not want a bag marked down from say $1100.00 to maybe $400? Many Coach bags can cost $400 or more, you know......
Shoes are 75-80% off at this outlet sale. Clothing & other items will also have significant reductions. Last Fall, I scored a pair of Ferragamo shades for only $99.00. They have seldom left my face since I bought them!
So, if you have a taste for premium goodies, particularly handbags, I highly recommend checking this event out before it's too late. There are other stores in Vegas, Florida, NY, etc. Pick me up a little something pretty if you go..........

Love me some Loehmann's!
It's that time again at Loehmann's.....you know the time......when all the clearance merchandise is yet another 50-70% off the clearance prices. Wahooo! I suggest you all high-tail it over to your local Loehmann's store before it's too late. I have been there the last 2 weeks thanks to a generous b-day gift card from my bother & his wife. Too bad I spent it all before this new sale began, but it's all good. I did get stuff I liked!

Did I fall off the Earth?
I have to confess, not doing much shopping these days & I find myself wondering why I even need this blog page now? Ha ha!! My intent was to share the all the deals I find, but alas, I have not been shopping to share.....
I had a b-day recently. That always sends wonderful gift cards my way to places like Loehmann's, Macy's, Target & Victoria Secret. I went online just yesterday to spend the VS gift card so we shall see how that turns out. Loehmann's is always great & a long-time fave store of mine. I found a few cute tops, including a "Retro Sport" Raiders t-shirt for my man.....he loved it. It was soft & worn like he has owned it for a million years......right up his fashion alley! Let's just hope our fave NFL team performs better this season than in recent past seasons. I still have some Loehmann's credit to spare for another day.
I went to Macy's to spend a gift card I had for that store........shockingly, I bought myself a sweater for Fall in a color no one ever sees me in -- purple! Well, OK, maybe it's a very muted egg-plant shade, but it's still purple (and I hate purple). I was drawn to it for some reason. It's by American Rag and I very much look forward to cooler weather so I can try it out. I still can't believe I bought purple..........must be my old age!!!
All that aside, there are some upcoming deals:
Macy's / Lancome - gift w/ purchase of $29.50 (Starts this Friday) - looks like a nice GWP, too!
They also have another "One Day Sale" this Saturday, but it starts on Friday.
Sorry for the lack of cool information this time around. Trying to save money, so I am shopping less, which makes life far more boring, I know.
Happy Shopping!

Feeling LUCKY?
After all, today IS "Friday the 13th!"....
LUCKY BRAND JEANS twice-yearly sale is on now through 6/30/08 (online & in stores). They claim you can save up to 50%....not a bad deal! My brother lives in their denim. A close friend swears they are the only brand to make a true Capri for her less than tall stature. I love many of their Mexican Dia de Los Muertos inspired skeleton art t-shirts and tanks....which are super comfy, by the way! (Be warned, the tanks run small!) Heck, I think everyone probably owns at least ONE clothing item by Lucky & loves it.
So, if you love Lucky, now is your time to buy. Hurry up before my friends & family get all the good stuff, though.......and, while you are out, grab me a nice skeleton T-shirt! ha ha!
By the way, if you are a proud dog-owner, they even sell some great dog leashes & doggie t-shirts, all for under $25 on sale now. FUN!

Not much shopping lately....
I have not shopped much lately -- at least not for clothing or shoes! We spent a tiny fortune on a recent vacation and really need to cut back a bit for the time being....but that has not really stopped us with regard to buying for the home.
I think this weekend alone, saw 3 trips to Home Depot & 2 to Lowe's (the Lowe's trips were both in one day) -- and, we still need to go back! :) Since I hit both places in one weekend, I glanced around to compare prices.....sometimes, it seems Lowe's is cheaper & other times, it seems Home Depot wins out. This time, we browsed at small bathroom cabinets that you hang on the wall....since we yet again, have re-painted our "master" bathroom for like the 3rd time in less than 3 years! (Loved the last color, but due to other paint & decor changes upstairs, that bathroom needed to match better & now it does!). ANYHOW......both stores had nice cabinets, but overall, I guess Home Depot won on better pricing this time. One particular, very basic model was under $50 at Home Depot & over $60 at Lowe's. Otherwise, they had similar items with similar pricing & overall, they all cost too much for what they were -- laminated fiber-board with a cheap handle for the door! I would say most were close to $100 or more!!! We are seriously contemplating painting our brown one white -- but we all know how "fake wood" is not fond of paint. ha ha!!! We shall see....
So, our entire weekend consisted of trips like this, shopping for stuff many might consider boring (lamp-shades, paint, bathroom storage, window screen materials, caulk, wood trim, small rugs, etc.), but I had a blast -- I'm just exhausted now & I suspect my husband feels much the same way.
The home improvement process never ends for people like us -- we get bored & need to change stuff. We find something cool & HAVE to have it....which prompts everything around it in the house to be changed or moved! Ha ha ha!!! Sometimes, we want a larger home just so we can continue decorating....because we are running out of projects! It's kinda sad for people like us that LOVE to decorate. We have even been caught decorating for friends & relatives over the last couple of months / years because we can't do more & they ask for help -- so, we pack up some tools & head on out for FUN. Yes, it's FUN for us to move furniture, hang mirrors or shelves & mount a curtain rod on a Saturday night....as long as my man has a beer by his side & a bag of Nacho Cheese Doritos for me, we are good to go! Have tool bag -- have creative skills, WILL travel!!! :)
