• First come, first serve, and all sales final so please ask all questions (measurements, pics, etc.) before you post sold.
• You have 24 hours after I've invoiced you or it will go to the next in line.

Let's go :)

SOLD SHIPPED 1.  Stuart Weitzman 50/50 boots, size 9. These fit me but I don't like boots that go up so high. These were refurbs from the Rack that I never wore. They look pretty new other than some wrinkling in the leather - nothing serious that probably wouldn't happen the first couple times you wear it. Asking Retail $655, asking $225.

SOLD SHIPPED 2. Rebecca Minkoff MAC crossbody bag. I don't believe it's a MAC Daddy but it's larger than my other full size MAC. Black leather with gold hardware. Measures approx. 8" x 11.5" x 2.75". This is also a refurb from the Rack and other than a couple light marks on the gold feet, it really looks great. Retail, $295, asking $125.

SOLD SHIPPED 3. Rebecca Minkoff Julian leather backpack in blue. This is also a refurb from the Rack that's just sitting unused in my closet because I'm not a backpack girl (I keep trying LOL). Retail, $295, asking $125.

4. I really wanted this size 40 (US 8) Chloe dress to work but it's a little big :( Color is light khaki, 100% polyester. On the runway it was two-tone but this is a solid color. Sleeves are sheer but not totally see-through. See the model for fit - my picture looks wide for some reason. Retail $3,495, asking $195.

5. Lanvin open toe leather and cork wedges in size 40. Check out the geometric cuts on the heels. These fit me but I just can't do the height. Heels are 6 inches high, platform is 1.75 inches high and insole is approx. 10.5 inches long. It's missing the ankle straps (I think they totally work without them) and has a bunch of scratches, but with a good polish they shouldn't be too bad. Plus these retailed for $1,380 so you can suck it up for $65.

BOTH SOLD SHIPPED 6. I fell in love with this Custo Barcelona dress/tunic (I have 1 small and 1 medium available) but it's too tight in the hips. 100% silk body and the sleeves are 100% polyester. Love the colors and the beading is amazing! It has a belt but I think it looks cuter without it. Retailed for $375, asking just $30 each.

BOTH SOLD SHIPPED 7. Raoul light grey tailored crepe midi skirts - I have a 6 & 8 available. I can fit both but I have nothing to match them LOL. They had a bit of stretch and high slit in the back. Made of 96% viscose, 4% elastane; lining: 97% polyester, 3% spandex. Retail $260, asking $25 each.

SOLD SHIPPED 8. NWT green gloss Hunter rain boots, size US 8 - wish they were a 9. Retail $150, asking $60.

SOLD SHIPPED 9. NWT size small Splendid top - this one is mine but I have a second one for you :) Cute, easy fit top. Can probably fit a size 4-8, maybe a 10 due to the loose nature. 100% rayon. Retail $84, get it for $10.

SOLD SHIPPED 10. NWT Yumi black beaded dress size EUR 38, US 2/4. 100% polyester. Cute, easy dress. Retail $275, get it for $30.

SOLD SHIPPED 11. NWT Michael Kors size 4 dress (the fabric tag is starting to come off so the Michael Kors tag fell off but I have it). 96% virgin wool, 4% spandex (has stretch). Unlined and back zip closure. Color on tag says stone but it looks like a tan to me. Retail $2,175, asking just $100. Crazy, right? Wish it was a size larger.

SOLD SHIPPED 12. Sonia Rykiel size 40 (US 8) orange silk dress with tie-back. No tags (other than the store tag). I googled a mod shot and my color is more accurate. Zips in the back. Pretty, but I have so much... Retail $1430, asking $70.

SOLD SHIPPED 13. For some reason I forgot to take a pic of this silk floral watercolor Escada "Dolene" dress. It's new with tags and gorgeous. Unfortunately it's a size 34 (US 4) so it's too small for me (no stretch so I can't get it over my derriere), Retailed for a whopping $1,950, get mine for just $100. BTW they had it on Gilt not too long ago for $599.

That's all folks! I had a lot more (like the Balenciaga City I posted on Insta) but my clients swooped them up. Hope I have something that works for you :)

Every day is Black Friday for me :)

While most shoppers scurried around town seeking out $5 PJs and deals on big screen TVs I spent most of my day at home. Other than popping into Nordstrom Rack in the morning for a price adjustment on stuff I purchased a few days earlier, I sat this Black Friday out. Black Friday just isn't what it used to be. My siblings and I used to wake up at the crack of dawn and wait outside Best Buy (or the like) to get a crazy deal on the latest electronic gadget of the moment. These days most deals are available online and sometimes better deals are offered on Cyber Monday - all from the comfort of your home. Plus I shop almost every day so I find deals all the time...so really every day is Black Friday for me :)

At the Rack found a few refurb tops for next to nothing after the 30% Black Friday discount. My daughter has a Rolling Stones top so I figured I would get one to be twinsies :)

Plus after discount is was only $3.50!

This Topshop sheer lace top is so pretty - plus it comes with a black cami (not pictured). I thought it would look pretty over a tank dress.

And it was about $9 after discount :)

I actually went in that day hoping to find a pair of Hunter boot socks on clearance and instead I found them for a penny LOL. And I was willing to pay a whole $15 bucks for them :)

I confess, I did buy one item not on sale...

You know I have a thing for their cheap BCBG pieces. For $25, I figured I'd get a lot of use out of this cropped sequin cardi - perfect for the holiday season! Check out the ruffle detail :)

And on this week's episode of Fashion Hunter - I found this cute leather patchwork skirt for $42 after discount. When I saw the Yigal Azrouel tag I got excited and took it even though it was a size 2 - I figured someone needed it :)

When I got home I googled it to see what the original retail was...but strangely enough I couldn't find it. After dozens of searches, I kept typing in different descriptive terms and nothing was coming up! Just as I was about to give up I found a picture that looked similar so I pulled it up and figured out why it was so hard to find....

It's a Tibi skirt!!??!!

Then I looked closer at the tag and saw it was sewn on a little crooked. The tags were switched - or it fell off and they just slapped on a tag that they thought belonged.

Even if it wasn't a Yigal Azrouel, I still got a $595 Tibi skirt for 42 bucks :) And then I realized it may not even be a size 2...so I tried it on and it's probably a 4 and I can just squeeze in! This fashion hunter is victorious once again!!!

After the Rack I popped into Target to see if there was anything good left and when I saw that the line snaked up and down the isles - all the way to the back of the store - I left.

And that was my Black Friday this year. For Cyber Monday I plan on shopping the American Girl Doll sale for my girls - it usually goes live at 3am EST so I'll be setting my alarm :) It's their best sale of the year (no dolls just accessories) and it's when I stock on on dolly gifts :)

I did pop into the thrift store last week and came out with a bunch of beautiful coats! I actually finally did a holiday look photoshoot last week and used two of them with a bunch of my other recent finds - stay tuned! This Soia & Kyo fur trimmed down jacket is one size too big but not too bad - plus it's an upgrade from my GAP maternity down coat I've been wearing for the past 10 years LOL.

According to their size chart I need a medium but this is a large.

These coats retail for $500+ so I was pretty happy to pay $30 :) This similar style is available for $520 online at Revolve.

Soia & Kyo Delphie Brushed Down Coat with Asiatic Raccoon Fur in Black

That's all for now. I would love to hear about your Black Friday scores - please share!

A always, enjoy the rest of your weekend and happy shopping :)
