Suburbia Steal!
Greetings from super suburbia!
While trolling around a REAL mall today with my momma, I happened to come across a snazzy little blazer. Sometimes I feel like such a magpie…I <3 shiny things!

Mixology NYC: Super Quiet Sale
Jewelry by New York native Allison Hessert, Mixology NYC offers pieces that aim to blend uptown sophistication with downtown rebelliousness. Personally, I’ve been loving the kind of glam cowboy look of some of their recent jewelry (like the rings pictured below!).

Decadestwo.1 Pop-up: VIP night
Scenesters gathered tonight at Kiki de Montparnasse’s SoHo shop for the first night of the Decadestwo.1 sale.

Racked reports that the shoes were downstairs, but we were directed upstairs when we tried to...

Saks Fifth Avenue Sneak Preview Sale
Today and tomorrow are the last two days of the Saks’ designer sale, which you can shop online and in stores.
By now, you all know that I adore shoes, so naturally I looked those deals up first. But since they didn’t have anything that particularly caught my eye (lots of Dolce Vita rabbit fur boots though — since winter’s over? Also, I can’t decide whether or not...

J checked out the sale on Saturday and told me she left empty-handed, since everything she liked was still over $1,000 (*sob*), but our resident male shopaholic, T, was able to pick up cheaper merch on the men’s side!
He reports seeing tons of product (“Racks and racks of...
