Nautical Nancy

july31-09I felt all nautical at work yesterday at work with the outfit I was wearing. I wanted to wear my score of a deal at Mexx t-shirt yesterday, so I paired it with my white capri’s and haven’t worn my pink $5.99 sandals either. Voila — Nautical Nancy. Fancy dandy. Not too many accessories but I wore my silver armadillo or ant eater necklace (I don’t know what it is?).

Necklace: A hand me down, that I received when I was like 14.
Purse: Nine West (bought at Labels for $34!)
Tee: Navy scoop tee from Mexx ($14.99 w/ 25% off!)
Capris: Mexx
Shoes: Aeropostale ($5.99)

I got up a little bit later than usual today for a weekend. 10:30. Especially since I went to bed somewhat early for a weekend (around midnight). So I immediately popped out of bed and headed straight to the mall because I was craving that kernals popcorn they have in the kiosks.

I stopped into Shoppers Drug Mart and noticed they had a clearance section on the go with basically everything and the kitchen sink. Chocolate bars on sale, a box of super fun colorful 200 straws for $0.34 (hey I love drinking my soda with a straw).

Winners has their summer clearance on the go right now. It’s overwhelming rummaging through the racks and trying to find a gem. So I went over to the sports section once again as the racks there aren’t as packed and crowded with clothes and people that don’t move when you say please — but also  perhaps not on clearance. I only pick out women’s clothes if it’s literally staring at my in front of my face. I rarely buy clothing at winners  (mainly sports wear, purses, sunglasses and maybe shoes) unless it’s popping out or in the front view on a rack. As I was flicking through the clothes I found an awesome nike sports bra that was sorta pricey for Winners at $24.99 but cheaper than what I would get it at The Bay or elsewhere. So I picked it up.

Nice color hey?

It’s finally warming up outside (we have been totally jipped this summer in regards to our warm weather). So I’m going to spend it outside!

[This ‘outfit of the day’ was worn on July 31, 2009.]

Hells yea at my dealios!

As I mentioned a little while ago, I said I’d post about the few purchases I made on pay day. I am to never be trusted in a mall, even if I’m dropping into one store to get my freebie for the month (aerie anyone?).  I guess I’m a bit jealous as the only family that I have up here in Ontario with me are my cousins who live just 45 minutes away and I see them, rarely. Like seriously once every 5 months or so? Oh and the booked it off to go to Florida to go outlet shopping with their Mom. How jealous? So, I wanted to go shopping too. Hey, at least it’s better than the malls I’m used to back home. We’ve got some wicked stores up here haha. Plus, I always manage to get a good deal wherever I go though, and all of these items were on sale! Remember: click all images to enlarge)purchases

Looks like I did a bit of damage on my credit card here. But fret not! I got amazing deals. I will show you! Now, of course onto the steals of the whole spree, and I need to show you close up’s of these sexy mama’s:

A closeup of the zebra and giraffe shoes. Check out the feet rockin’ the flip flop tan. Now, you may notice here that the giraffe shoes are a bit different in color here. But I really loved these shoes, and they were the ONLY pair in any size they had left. I’m an 8.5 in a shoe. They had 9’s in the zebra, and 8’s in the giraffe so I bought them regardless! The giraffe ones were the display models, so the lighter one’s are “older”. I really don’t notice them because I guess I don’t stare at my feet when I’m walking. But they look wicked, and I’m sure the other one will fade with time. At least that’s what the sales girl told me. Maybe she was trying to make commission? I should have asked her. ha! So I say a bitta sale shopping never hurt anyone!
