Dress For Less Thread

Ok so a few folk seem to get mad (or at least somewhat annoyed) at some of us for making comments on the Forever 21 thread. lol

Here's a chance to set the record straight that most of us did not mean to make fun of anyone for dressing inexpensively. At least I don't think anyone really did. I, for one, so very seldom dress expensively. I'm an artist, I don't have that kind of cash razz...just yet. lurking

Anyway...

Today I picked up a purple sweater and some cords. That's all I've been wanting for about a month now, a damn purple sweater and some cords. lol

Got this sweater (looks much nicer in person, actually confused) at Tar-gay for $20.

While there I picked up 2 $4.99 tees one orange and one green to wear under (and under button downs) for a small pop of bright color).

Then I ran over to Old Navy and picked up these cords that are on sale for $20. woot!

I also picked up a lightweight thermal for layering or wearing on its own. They're on sale for $10. Can't go wrong. shrug

About 2 months ago I picked up these Steve Madden boots at DSW for $30!!! Gotta love that purple ticket.

I haven't really been shopping shopping for a while, but at the beginning of the summer, I went to Kohl's and JC Penney and bought some cute little dresses for summer...

The one I wore at John's cost about $20 or $25. The shoes were about $25 on sale.

Besides the Levi stuff, I generally like Merona best of the men's stuff there.

Mossimo sometimes has some nice stuff too.

I pretended I was loaded and bought everything I liked that suited me.

Have you ever seen the pr0nz where they actually put their balls in the box? Or the no-no (yes-yes) hole?

It's what you make it.

Does it feel good?

Or is it more for the "hey, let's try this!" factor?

I just ordered 4 pairs of boots from sears all for less that 110.00!!! They are just casual boots since I didnt have anything for dressing down.. I was surprised at the selection they had online and the massive markdown!!

heres one pair..

http://www.sears.com/shc/...ockType=G2

and another..

http://www.sears.com/shc/...ockType=G1

And these in black and in brown, these arent fabulous but they will be cute for jeans or leggins and a tshirt.. shrug

For some reason I though you were going to post your snuggie!

I know I know, old joke! But John you're legendary! That snuggie is as famous as Dan's Batdick joke!
