Calling All Coupon Cutters

With newspapers and magazines going out of business, no one really cuts coupons anymore, but don't worry, you can still find useful coupon codes to use online. Usually, before I purchase anything online, I do a google search with the name of the store and the words coupons, online code, free shipping, etc. I often find codes for discounts on the price or free shipping. Try it!

These Boots Were Made For Riding

So I kind of love riding boots. They can be dressed up or dressed down and they keep my toes all warm and toasty. I especially like the riding boots pictured above so I searched the the internet far and wide for the best deal on them. Turns out the price is right at Amazon.com. Below are the links to the boots and the various sites I visited:

Amazon.com
$41.97

DSW
$64.95 (free shipping with $25)

Victoria's Secret

Barneys Designer Sale Up To 60% Off

Barneys isn't a store that is usually in my price range, but with 60% off it is. Check out their designer sale. See my picks below...

Citizens are one one my favorite brands of designer jeans, and while $100 might seem steep, jeans are something you will wear over and over again for years. Besides the price of designer denim is slowly creeping up, so at just over $100 these are a bargain.

By the way... Nordstrom is currently selling them for $174




Diane von Furstenberg is totally hot these days. It's a good idea to splurge a little on one of her dresses. They are one of a kind and sure to grab attention. Tartan/plaid is always popular in the fall and I like that this combines that with the bustier which is particularly hot this season. This would be perfect for a Christmas party and it's almost 70% off!

Who doesn't love Marc Jacobs right now? There is something really interesting about this top that I like.

Christmas Party Style

Tis' the season to be fashionable! I have a couple holiday parties to go to and I've been scouring the internet for some cute dresses that still look festive (without making me look like Mrs. Claus a la Mean Girls). You can never go wrong with the little black dress, but I like something a little different for Christmas and New Year's Eve.

I really like this dress from Nordstrom. The black version of the dress is very cute and on sale, but this green version definitely reminds me of the holidays. I'm not a fan of tulle so if I buy it, I will probably cut it off.

Also available in black and plum
$68




Here is the black version, which is marked down to $39.90. Quite the steal...




I love the color and halter style of this dress, but they don't have it in my size. With the bow, it's like you'll be a satiny, chic, blue, present!

Ann Taylor Loft
Halter Dress With Bow
Originally $99, Now $59.99




When I think of the holidays, I think of the color red. The style of this dress is sweet and simple.
