Wish List Wednesday: Vintage Vixens

Yep, it's that time again! Have you ever come across a piece of clothing that seemed to be made just for? Well, I came across three such dresses on Etsy but...they're all waaaaay too small for me :-(




I love these dresses so much and wish I was small enough to wiggle into
 them but alas, it ain't happenin' captain. check them out anyway...

This beauty right here is a vintage 80's silk color blocked number. As much as I love her, we cannot be together because she's a size small/medium. If she were more medium than small I could probably swing it, she comes with a one way ticket though and I'm not willing to take any chances she won't fit.

I want her soooo bad! Look at her, isn't she lovely? She's another vintage 80's color blocked stunner. I love the allover damask leaf pattern print and the color/shape of this dress. She's so pretty and feminine...just way too small :-(

When I showed my daughter this dress, she said it was ugly and plain. I strongly disagree. I think this dress is cute, simple and causal. With or without the blazer, I really love this dress. Too bad she's too small for me :-(

I blogged about this beauty the other day and I am still completely OBSESSED! She may look heavy, but she's decidedly light and all the way awesome. My thrifting partner called her ugly and a monstrosity but I whole heartedly disagree. I'm still stalking her and waiting for her price to come down...then she's alllll mine!


That's actually it for this edition of wish list Wednesday because I have another post I need to work on. What's on your wish list? Let a sistah know!

Eye Spy a shopportunity!

If you're like me, the only time you like shopping is when there's a sale or discount coupon/code involved. I try my best to never ever pay full retail for ANYTHING...it just isn't my way, lol. I've always been a comparison shopping, review reading, coupon clipping, deal hunting, best bang for the buck kinda girl...the current economic depression has intensified that. Because I love a deal and I love passing them along, I've compiled a list of shopportunities for you, my awesome readers :-)


Don't say I never did anything for you!

First up, we have these gorgeous sequined shorts from Lulu's. They'll be perfect for your upcoming holiday parties...and with a $19.25 discount brought to you by Lucky Magazine, they'll be easier on your wallet.

Click here to buy and when you're ready to check out, enter code "lucky3" when prompted. Valid from November 1, 2011, through January 2, 2012, or while supplies last. Not keen on the shorts? Click here for a gold sequined skirt which is $8.75 less than the shorts. You can't use the discount code on the skirt...but then, you don't need to. As a bonus, Lulu's offers free shipping with a $75 or more purchase (to Continental US only). By the way, you can only use one discount code at a time.







One of the best things about shopping online is that you can comparison shop to get the best bang for your hard earned bucks. Another great thing about online shopping is Ebates.com. Ebates is a virtual mall featuring many of your favorite retailers and cash back shopping. If you aren't already a member (and you should be since it's free and they'll give you $5 just for signing up) you're missing out on today's daily double from Yves Rocher France. YRF has been in the botanical beauty business for 50 years and now you can get a whopping 30% cash back when you shop with them via Ebates. YRF also offers free shipping when you spend $40 or more. Hurry, this offer ends today, November 12, 2011! You'll also appreciate all the goo gobs of coupons, double cash back deals and the fact that you can get your cash back via PayPal. So stop procrastinating and join Ebates already!

With the onset of winter (at least where I dwell) you're gonna want something to keep your feet warm and toasty and Whooga ugg boots will do just that. Love the way they look or hate the way they look, ugg boots are suede and sheepskin heaven for severely anemic folks like me. Although I own a pair of UGG brand ugg boots, I see a pair of Whooga brand ugg boots in my very near future. As shown in a side by side comparison picture on the Whooga website, Whooga brand ugg boots have a thicker sheepskin lining than those other ugg boots and as a bonus, they're less expensive. Want an even bigger bonus? Per the above picture, all Whoogas are 40% off. Need more incentive? Shipping is free, all Whoogas have a 1 year warranty and if there's a problem with your Whoogas, return shipping is free! No, I don't work for Whooga...but I wish I did :-)

Delia's is probably one of my favorite places to shop (they're on Ebates too) because they cater to women of a certain height (I'm 5'10 with a 36 inch inseam, pow!). Their jeans/pants are cute and inexpensive and they always have some sale or promotion going on. Some of their items are kinda pricey IMO, but I primarily buy jeans/pants from them. At any rate, from now until Monday, November 14, 2011, Delia's is offering free shipping on everything with the code "GETFREE". You should also know that Delia's is running a sale on all coats and boots up to 30% off.






That's it for now my little bargain hunters, I'll be back with more another day. Have you spied with your little eye a deal too good to pass up? Let a sistah know!
