Black padded/ruched top (RSP:  $12)

Black one shoulder dress (RSP:  $25)
Red ruched one shoulder dress (RSP:  $22)
Black pvc/fishnet dress (RSP:  $20+)

$16 for all @ Sirens.

I'm so glad I started paying attention.  I never knew things could be this cheap at this store until last year.  I love ruching and Sirens always has a lot of it.

The only thing is, their clothing is always so ridiculously tight, I end up getting a large most of the time.

But...who cares what size it is as long as it looks good!

QED London - asymmetrical wool coat:  $15 @ Urban Behavior (RSP:  $50 - it's selling for over $100 here!)

I am so in love with this coat!  I'm glad I managed to find it.  It was the only one there, probably because it was an extra large...I thought there'd be no hope of it fitting me, but surprisingly it did.  And it looked good too!

That's because it has drawstrings at the back to cinch it at the waist.  This coat is so gorgeous!  Due to the large sizing, I end up with quite a gathered skirt.  Pictures from the site linked above:



I noticed this coat among the other cheap wares due to its patterned lining..the quality is way better than most of the stuff you find at these kind of stores.

I consider this my best find so far this year!  It's absolutely the darling of my coat collection.

I wanted that pearl dress so badly!  It's a bit more than I wanted to pay, but after losing so many times I finally decided to up my price.

Ganz - Light up snowglobe ornament:  $1.50 (RSP:  $5.99)
2 x 8 pack of glittery Christmas cards:  $.25 each (RSP:  $1)

All @ Pharmasave

The prices here are normally ridiculous, so 75% off isn't usually much of a deal.

The cards are probably pretty standard dollar store fare, except those are never discounted any further!  I liked the design and thought it was a good price so I picked them up.

I'm a sucker for novel things, and I especially love snowglobes.  If it was just a snowglobe I probably could have resisted, but that little baby also lights up!  I just had to get it.

I didn't know the price, but I thought it was worth around a buck.  I decided to splurge anyway, even though that would probably be the regular price at a dollar store that had something that cool.

If only it were musical!  That would have made it even better.

Dark brown khaki pants:  $2 @ Dollarama

I had no idea how these would look, but I took a chance for the price.

Most of them were pretty weather beaten, but this one was alright.  If I find a grey or beige one in decent condition I'll probably buy it.

They're actually a pretty flattering fit, except I'm not a fan of the wide legs.

Cropped wool jacket:  $10 @ Urban Planet (RSP:  $39.99)

I grappled with buying this coat, especially since it looks like a shorter version of this one.

I ended up buying it because the fit is a lot looser than the one above, and it was a good price considering the quality/design.

Finally, it had my name on it!  That might have been another motivating factor.

Black lace up shoes (RSP:  $39.99)
Dark grey wedges (RSP:  $18.50)
Filigree belt (RSP:  $9.50)

3 for $10 @ Ardene.

It took me so long on decide on these.  Shoes from here aren't usually that great, but they're worth it for this price!  Most of them are comfortable enough with insoles, but the sizing isn't very accurate here.

I loved the lace up shoes so much I decided it was worth it to find some other items to get the deal.  They're cute and comfortable, but not very well made.  Let's see how long they last.

The wedges look great, but aren't very comfortable.  Still, I'm sure I'll get some use out of them.

I like the belt, but I don't think it's worth more than $2.  I was planning on getting another pair of shoes, but decided to get something that I would actually use instead.

I didn't really like the other ones they had there.  Tons of oxfords, which would have looked nice if the heel was a big higher.  Then a ton of canvas shoes, which I would probably never wear.

It's just too bad they make you buy in multiples.  I probably would have only picked up the first pair of shoes if that wasn't the case.
 Cream leatherette bomber jacket:  $10 (RSP:  $30)


Fur collared brown leatherette bomber jacket:  $10 (RSP:  $39.99)

Both @ Urban Planet.

I really have way too many of these coats now, but these were so worth it!

The first one was a no brainer, mainly because I don't have any in this colour.  It's also a great design.

The second one was harder to decide since this jacket is similar...but since I like this design and colour better (it's darker) I decided to pick it up anyway.

I really hope I'm not tempted by any more coats this year!

Rosette purse: $5 (RSP: $19.95)
Strapless chiffon dress:  $10 (RSP:  $59.95)

Both @ H&M.

I really didn't expect to buy anything in store.  I do like a lot of their designs, but their sales are never that great.  I guess the one I went to today isn't very popular, which is why they still had these gems behind!

Stock picture of the purse:

I wanted it ever since I saw it, but really didn't see myself paying full price for it.  I thought that maybe, I would get it at half price.

I never saw it on sale-in fact, it ended up just disappearing.  For a little while I pondered paying full price for it, but now I'm glad I didn't!  This is exactly the price I wanted to pay.

My preferred colour would have been pink.  I would have also liked the cream or the off white.  This one was honestly my last choice, but the purse really isn't worth more than $5.

The dress is gorgeous!  $10 is pretty much the max I would pay for a dress in strenuating circumstances, and only if I really love it.

This one fit the bill!  I couldn't snatch it up fast enough.  It's similar to this one (which I also love) but longer.

$10 was a steal.  I love this dress so much!

Glamazon princess boots:  $11 @ Claire's (RSP:  $36.50)

I was hoping I would find these boots in my size!  Sadly I did-my exact size, that is. 

I prefer a size above for comfort, but couldn't bear to leave these behind.  Official photos:



I'm going to be kicking myself if I do find them in my preferred size later on.

They fit as is, but they'd be so much more comfortable with insoles.

Denim mini skirt:  $2.24 @ Smart Set (RSP:  $30+)
Bewild - cream flats:  $2.50 @ Shoe Warehouse (RSP:  $40+)

I never thought I'd buy something from Smart Set.  Their clothing, as well as their pricing, just aren't my style most of the time.

Imagine my surprise when I found this skirt today!  It was marked $2.99 with an extra 25% off, I just couldn't resist.

The flats are too small for me, so I picked them up for my mom.  It just seemed insane to leave them behind at that price.
