OOTD – Maxi Monday
Posted on: October 8, 2012
Hello Friends and Happy Monday. If you are on the east coast you woke up to a brrrrr…..chilly morning. I love the cool, crispness of the season, windows cracked open and covers pulled over my head is the best way to sleep! Today’s outfit is a faux suede maxi thrifted from Goodwill, multi print top from Ross and pumps from Rugged Wearhouse.
If you are home today enjoy yourself but if you are at work like me, take a long lunch and enjoy yourself – Smooches!
I’m linking with Tough Cookie Mommy – so hop on over and meet a new blogger today
Deals At Ross
Posted on: August 29, 2012
Another “return” trip to Ross yesterday after work (remember this one) and found a few new beauty and “As Seen on TV” products.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
As Seen on TV Strutz Cushion Arch Supports; 1 size fits all men and women. They have non-slip soles made of breathable fabric and can be worn barefoot, with sneakers, sandals or heels. Hubby complained about his feet yesterday so I’ll ask him to try them out and give me a review, $7.99
As Seen on TV Cami Secrets in Zebra, Leopard and Cougar prints. I previously purchased a 3-pack in solid colors (black, white and beige) and have worn them under low V-cut shirts/dresses. They are light weight, cool and attaches easily to the bra straps, $6.99.
Absolute! Make-up Cleansing Tissues, 33 per pack with Pomegrante Extract. There are 8 more cleansing cloths than most other brands, cleans well and cost only $2.99.
Hollywood Fashion Secrets Accessory Dots with Bonus Fashion Tape. “When you don’t need a lot, use a dot!” I have always wanted to try this product, according to the packaging it can eliminate gaps in your tops/wrap dresses; hold straps; adjust hemline/length; secure necklines, scarves and accessories. $2.99 for 25 double stick tape dots and a bonus 6 strips of fashion tape.
Remember when plastic hangers replaced wire ones and we all loved them….well now they are being replaced with velvet hangers which are better. Keeps delicate clothing and straps from falling off, gives more room in the closets (for all those hauls and are great for hanging accessories, belts, scarves and jewelry. 20 pack for $9.99.
“NO MORE WIRE HANGERS” – Joan Crawford, Mommy Dearest
And the reason for my return trip – an exchange for these!
Rampage Faux Suede and Snake Skin pumps with 4.5″ heel and 1″ platform – $18.99.

Is Goodwill Still A Good Deal?
Posted on: June 18, 2012
I remember the days when you could purchase clothing at Goodwill for 1 or 2 dollars. Of course back then, thrifing wasn’t as popular or considered a chosen alternative to department stores. There were always vintage boutiques where you expected to pay more, but never at Goodwill – not until now. Here are a few items that I found at Goodwill in Thorndale, PA which ranged in price from $3.50 to $5.00, this location also receives unsold shoes from Target which is a good deal.
Pink Lois Snyder Dani Max Vest
- Jaclyn Smith Beaded Gauze top
- Mint Peek & Peck Collection Capris
replaced a pair I thrifted but were cut too low in the waist / re-donated to GW
- Christopher & Banks Purple, faux suede maxi skirt
- Cambridge Country Denim Skirt
I am going to bleach to give it a tie-dye effect
- Blue and White stripped Maxi
will wear around the house or as a beach cover-up
- Lapis skirt
same style as one purchased at Marshalls
- I remember when these were the “it” shoes for the Spring from Target
- New with tags
- If you purchase shoes from GW, make sure to disinfect them using alcohol, bleach/water or disinfectant spray or all 3 – I always spray new shoes as well.
- variety
Is Goodwill Still A Good Deal – YES!
