NYC Spa Week Review
Spa Week is here! All this week, at participating spas, you can try out different treatments for only $50! Too good to be true? Um, sort of? Read my review and decide for yourselves:
Spa Week, of course, appeals to my two strongest addictions: saving money and being vain. I love trying new skin products and anything with the words “anti-aging” just get me every time.
So as...

Discounted Fresh Water Pearl Turtle Pendant
It’s cute huh? A few months ago I bought the same style, but in earrings (pictured below), and they are as adorable as they look in their photos. I think, because the pearl is not a perfect sphere and the metal is probably sterling silver, the vendor can offer discounts like the one I’m about to share with you:
SALE PRICE: $49.95
Too high, you say?

My JustFab Update!
I actually wasn’t planning on buying shoes after Who What Wear’s Scoop event since I have shoes from Dolce Vita’s sale last year that A, G, and I went to that I STILL have not worn, but after I saw A and G were both buying stuff off JustFab, I got the itch and decided I wanted in on some of the heeled action.
Well, after an hour browsing and a trigger-happy cc finger, I got my...

Update from the Book-Signing Event @ Scoop NYC
My shoes arrived from JustFab.com! We first heard about this 50% off your first pair at Who What Wear’s Scoop NYC event. They displayed the W3 Collection, and the shoes were cute and looked pretty well made for $20 with free shipping + free returns. I think the catch is that there’s a $6 restocking fee when you return…so it’s not REALLY free! Their site was super slow, making it difficult to...

Jewelmint Unwrapped
Ever since I saw these earrings on Kate Bosworth, I knew I HAD to have them.
But I was hesitant since they were available only via Jewelmint, the jewelry club she started with her stylist. (Yes, “club” as in those things you pay for every month…and end up with more stuff than you ever thought you’d need.) Even though you can skip a month if you don’t want to buy...

Phillip Lim Sample Sale Spoils!
Waiting 1.5 hrs in line at the Phillip Lim sale was a painful ordeal but well worth it. It was a madhouse as J said, but I was able to find some great steals!
Ankle Booties- made of kangaroo! $100 (retail $875!)
Leather Gloves- $50 (retail $375)
I had been stalking those shoes for a while now but couldn’t bear to pay even half price for them. Clearly Phillip Lim <3s me- named them...

Phillip Lim Sample Sale
D, G, and I showed up to get in line at 11am, thinking it was early enough to still grab some steals, but not painfully early.
Well this is New York and no sale starts too early. The three of us learned that the hard way because the line went through the lobby and down the street (I mean, we love to shop, but dang you New Yorkers make it a veritable sport!). We heard people were lining...
