Have y’all been to Sears lately?

Neither had I until I popped in today to return a Lands’ End Tote bag that I had ordered online.  Did you know that they have a full fledged Lands’ End Store in Sears.  No Lie!

Also, who knew Lands’ End had such stylish clothes this days?!

I walked away with this super cute Coat

Women’s Luxe Scoopneck Coat…. normally $249, but on sale in store for about $155!!

It comes in 5 super cute colors, but when push came to shove I picked “Juniper” Green.

I also snagged this simple Down Vest

Women’s Down Vest… normally $50, but again on sale in store for about $25.

When I went to check out, the saleswoman told me that if I spent $16 more dollars I would get an additional $60 dollars off.

Well thank you Miss Saleswoman- I accept your challenge.

And vannyB thanks you for his new hat!

Boys Northwest Passage Peruvian Hat.. yup on sale too…$16!

So my grand total for all 3 items was less that the sale price of the Green Coat by itself!

Awesome and Amazing!

Go check it out for yourself!  Now, go… what are you waiting for?

In the market for some cool, funky, vintage, and/or custom fabric?

If so, you gotta check out this great online fabric store called Spoonflower.

I found them randomly as I’ve been searching the web for the perfect crib skirt fabric for van’s crib.

{But I also noticed that YHL recently linked to them too- great minds think alike}.

I just had to pass along to my favorite readers that today is Free Swatch Day over at Spoonflower!!

Normally an 8″x8″ swatch is $5, but today you can get one for Free.

The hardest part is deciding which one to get!

Just make sure to check it out before noon (EST) tomorrow, that’s when the offer ends.

Happy Shopping!!

Need I say more??

You know retail stores love to get rid of seasonal clothes smack dab in the middle of that specific season.  I see this as an opportunity to stock up on some cute work essentials that I can wear for atleast another 3-4 months.  Let’s hope my wallet feels the same!  Happy Shopping!

I’ve kinda got that itch to freshen-up the living room a bit.  Don’t tell Mr.vB!

This was the fuel to my fire!

Ballard Designs- Pillow Covers

On SALE starting at $7.99 and it includes FREE Monogramming!

I can just envision the red ones with a big ol’ vB monogram on it sitting our sofa.  Wouldn’t they be a nice addition?

(After further inspection I noticed that only 2 of the 15 color options are actually on sale for $7.99.  The others are regular price..hmm..that isn’t cool! Maybe this isn’t such a steal and deal after all.  To be continued)

So I was pursing the world wide web and found that May’s Shoe of the Month is now on SALE!!

The Brinley Ribbon Pumps are now only  $22.99.  And remember you can get free shipping to a local store!

I think I might have to splurge and get a pair!!

I haven’t been in the mood lately to talk about things like shoes, home projects, or yes, even Target, since the fire at my parent’s house.  I just didn’t feel like it was appropriate.  But as my parents get back to their normal routine, it makes me feel like I can too.  So sorry if my post’s have been sparse and/or Debbie Downers lately. I’m about to turn that frown upside down.

I thought it might be fun to do a Steal and Deal of the WEEK over the summer.  Here goes Week One…

The J.Crew Outlet Store has my FAVORITE shorts on sale.  I think I must own about 7 pairs!!

The City Fit Style

Normally $44.50, Now on Sale for $19.99- Now that’s a STEAL!

This isn’t exactly what they look like, but I couldn’t find a photo of them since they were from the outlet store and not the real store.  The waist band is a little different but you get the idea.  They are super comfortable and can be dressed up or down!
