Jones New York - Mint green beaded/embroidered silk halter dress:  $5 @ Talize (RSP:  $200+)

Can you believe this is all I bought on a half off day??  That's never happened before!  There just wasn't much good stuff this time, sadly.

I almost didn't buy this one (because it was somewhat wrinkled), but now I'm glad I did.  It's so flattering on!


They had another one in the exact same colour, in the exact same style sans the embroidery/beads.  They were the same price too.  It was a no-brainer!

Jamdabar - Red and black stripe scalloped edge blazer:  $4 (6 days)
Jones New York - Grey floral silk blazer:  $4 (47 days!)

Both @ Talize

I wasn't sure about either, but at least they were cheap enough.  The red one wasn't super great quality, but I really liked the fit and scalloped edging.  It looked good on.

The other one is a bit big on me, but I really liked the floral print.  I don't have anything like that, and it's in silk!  I wouldn't have bought it otherwise.

H&M - Blush pink trench coat:  $6.50 (RSP:  $69.95)


Jones New York - Wool military blazer:  $6.50 (RSP:  $150+)

Both @ Value Village.

I almost didn't go to this location, but I'm glad I did!  I only had an hour left but I didn't want to rush...well, somehow I made it through.

I almost didn't think I'd get anything, but at the very last minute I found these gems!

I was really hesitant about the trench because it's H&M...a cheap mall brand.  I could probably have gotten it on sale new for $20, maybe...I don't really follow their sales.

Anyway, I tried it on and it took my breath away.  It was gorgeous!   Fitted, flared, and flattering...it's a beautiful princess cut.  I found a picture of another blogger wearing it:


It's amazing!  I didn't think H&M had good quality clothes, but this one was so impressive.  Even the lining is gorgeous!  I'll have to pay more attention to them from now on.

I didn't have high hopes for the blazer, but surprisingly, that looked good on too.  I definitely didn't want to pay full price for either (though I might have bought the trench still), so I'm happy with the price I paid.

Jones New York - silk halter dress:  $5


B. Smart - Lace halter dress:  $4

Both @ Talize.

I don't know if I should have bought these dreses.  I loved the designs, but both of them have stains.  I hope they'll come out!

The first one was a no brainer because it was silk, $5 was a steal for it.

I thought I'd love it in the store, but when I tried it on at home I wasn't too fond of the bottom part.  It would have looked a lot better if they used the same shiny gold material as the top.

The last one is just standard mall quality, but it's so cute!  I'm a sucker for lace.

I picked it up because I knew that even if I couldn't get the stain out, I could hide it by reversing the strap...but that would take some effort.  I'll just see what happens after a wash.
