Week in review; Herve Leger and other designer deals, boots for a penny, $199 iPads, H&M sale & cheap/free beauty products :)

With the pre-summer sales picking up I've been doing pretty well. So much that I've probably been over editing because how much stuff does a girl (even a hoarder) really need?

I listed a bunch of extras in my blog sale - check it out if you missed it on Friday :) Lots of goodies left! I also dumped my shoe closet last week and I plan on having a sale to clear out some space as soon as I have a spare moment.

If you follow me on Facebook or Instagram I'm sure you noticed my new Herve Leger dress that I practically stole for $198.


It was $238 but I put my $40 Nordstrom note to good use :)

On Monday my Rack had shoe markdowns so I got there bright and early and turned over every shoe in the women's section LOL. I spent a whopping two cents.



And this is what I found :)


I miss the days when they marked stuff down to $5 and $10. These days I just have to work a little harder to find the penny shoes they forgot to pull.

I finally caved and purchased a mini iPad for $199 on sale at Target this past week. So on Tuesday, lo and behold, this refurbished Kate Spade case showed up for $20! I'm so obsessed - I think I love my polkadot case more than the actual iPad LOL.



Other recent Rack finds include several refurbished clothing items. They look new and for these prices...

My favorite is this $20 Halogen striped satin skirt. I'm still not sure how I'm going to wear it but I'm thinking along the lines of pointed neon pumps and a fitted black top, maybe denim. Still not sure but I'll post a pic when it comes together :)




I wasn't sure about this Kate Spade wallet but I'm a sucker for pink and the price was right ($32). I've been using my thrifted $4 red Versace wallet and enjoying it so I'm not sure I need this but it's so cute - plus easy to find in my black bags LOL. 



Plenty of card slots plus there is a zippered compartment for change on the back.

This sweet lace a-line dress was just $5! It's a size too big but I figure I'll belt it.




Cute $5 top, enough said :)




I figure I can use this black top for layering or maybe with my new striped skirt. For 8 bucks it was a no-brainer.






I'm not sure of this is a strapless dress or a skirt but I love the color and price :) I still can't figure out how to wear the long belt thing. I keep wrapping it around but I can't find a way that suits me.




I picked up this cute skirt for my niece who loves pencil skirts. My SIL and family is coming to visit this summer so I've started pre-shopping for them. 





I'm not really into St. John but if you're a size 14 you may want to pick up this red blazer for 92% off! I actually found the matching skirt which was also super cheap - I put both pieces together on the rack LOL. If you're interested they are on the designer rounder at the Bergen Nordstrom Rack. It was still there on Friday.




******************



H&M had a crazy sale this week. It started on Monday but I didn't stumble upon it until Wednesday so I'm not even going to think about what I missed. I filled up a bag for around $100 but I edited down to just a few pieces. These are my final contenders:

I found this dress in a size 6 but it was marked $50 at the first store I went to so I left it. At the next store I found a size 10 for $20. Then I ran back to the first store and did an even exchange :)

There is something so retro and 70's about this dress - I can't wait to wear it! I just have to figure out how to keep the skirt from opening up in the front. I may just tack it down.



I keep hoping to find this H&M dress on markdown. Fingers crossed!


I also picked up this chiffon dress for $15 from $35. I LOVE the color but I wish the neckline dipped more. I have broad shoulders so I really need to break that horizontal line. Maybe I'll wear it with a long necklace.



This dress or coverup was only $15 and not on sale. I'm not really into tunics and I don't want to layer it but the sides of the skirt practically show your bum. I'm not sure if I'll buy a second dress and add to the skirt - or I'll just return it.



This basic dress was just $5 so I got it this heathered blue and a solid kahki color that I was actually wearing as I took this picture. Not the most flattering but it's easy and comfortable and five bucks each.



I really like the drape on this rust colored top - plus again, only $5! I'm only showing the back because it's the most interesting part. The back splits open and has a sheer panel underneath.




******************

On the Target front, those cubby organizers went to 70% off. Good thing I grabbed them at 50% because as predicted, I couldn't find the ones I needed with the additional markdown.

I only found sale makeup this week. I've been meaning to try Sinful since I shared that article from Glamour on my Facebook wall. It seems Consumer Reports tested a bunch of polishes and Sinful tested better than more expensive brands. Go figure! I've been looking for a new coral/red color and this one was just $.67! I'd picked up a Revlon colorstay at the last CVS 75% off cosmetics clearance and it wears well - so for $1.67 a nice neutral is always a welcome addition to my collection.

Red, white and blue! (L-R) Revlon Pale Cashmere, Sinful Colors Hottie & Energetic Red.

I stocked up for my SIL who loves long-wearing lipsticks. Don't worry V, I got you multiples of colors I thought you'd prefer. And yes, everything in this picture is for you :)



Speaking of beauty products, my free Beautybox5 arrived! It came with shampoo samples, a mini mascara, full size nail polish, travel size vitabath and some skincare samples. Get yours too with code FREE614 at beautybox5.com

And last but not least, I randomly searched for leather cuff bracelets on eBay and I came across the seller Juliagoland and ordered a couple - she's also on etsy as julishland. The one on the right is size medium and the left is a small. They both fit but I prefer the size small for my tiny wrists. With shipping they came out to about $10 each. I love cuff bracelets. They make me feel powerful - like Wonder Woman and her awesome gold cuffs. My favorite leather Yosca one that I got years ago in the dollar bin at their sample sale finally died so I went looking for replacement. As soon as I received these two (took about two weeks as they came from Israel) I actually ordered a couple more. Can't wait!


This is one of the bracelets I just ordered. The prices and selection vary on both sites (shipping is the same) so be sure to check both eBay and etsy.



And that was my week :) Don't forget about my giveaway and my blog sale!
