BCBG Dress...... Modified!

A few months ago, I was browsing through Nordstrom Rack 

and found this on the sale rack...



A BGBG RUNWAY DRESS ♥♥♥

I think the total I paid for this was less than $30 ♫

Unbelievable price, but just one thing...

It was a long sleeve dress. 

Gah!

When I tried it on I hated the long sleeves so I almost didn't buy it

but my fashion-savvy friend that was with me said

I could always cut off the sleeves.

I didn't even know that was even allowed!

So I took her advice and now I have a beautiful dress ☆

Bird Pillow


I got this 'Orimono bird pillow' 

at Anthropologie early last year

but I still love it so much I have to share!


Right now it's sitting on my cream colored chair

and it serves as a perfect accent pillow ♥

I also like that it's very unique ♪

I think originally it was around $60 and I got it for $30 ☆

Photo Clip

I first saw this gigantic clip object when I was at my friend's house. 

She had it in light blue and I HAD to ask her where she got it!

Unfortunately it was a gift and she didn't know.

Well.....

I FOUND IT AT TARGET! ☆☆☆


I also found out that it was actually a photo clip ♥

I think it was less than $10 ♫

Mococo+Print


Today  I found a Japanese website called

'Mococo+Print'

The site has a lot of things you can print out and use.

Everything on the site is

ADORABLE ♥

and

FREE☆

Here are a few examples:


Shopping list.... pretty self explanatory


Memo sheet ✎


To jot down who called and why ☎


Super cute 2010 calendar ☀☁☂☃

All you need is a printer to print everything ♫ 

Everything besides the calendar prints out a set of 4

so you have to cut  ✄

The link is 

http://moko.pupu.jp/print/

The site is in Japanese but click around on the 

left hand column ☆

Have fun ♫♫

Neiman Marcus Last Call

I recently went to the Neiman Marcus Last Call center 

and walked into...

A SALE!!!!! ☆☆☆☆

It was a little ways to drive but I'm so glad I went.

Not only did they have tons on their sale racks, the deal was

TAKE 40% OFF YOUR ENTIRE PURCHASE!!!!!

I can't use enough exclamation marks.

I rushed in 30 min before closing 

and was kicking myself all the way home that I didn't get in sooner.

But in the end, I scored.....



a beautiful FENDI dress ♥♥♥♥♥♥

I was actually looking for a dress to wear to an event so it worked out.

This picture truly doesn't do it justice.

I heart the intricate pleating!

At full price this dress cost over $2500 (ooof.....)

but I got it for about..... 

$250 ♫♫♫

Viva outlets!

Marc by Marc Jacobs Boutique Pt 2

While I was at the boutique, I purchased one more item ♫

The heart-shaped compact mirror for $5 ♥♥♥




I've been wanting one for about 3 months now so, of course,


I got it!

There was also a "heart break" version but after much debate

I decided to go with this one ☆


Marc by Marc Jacobs Boutique Pt 1

This week I stopped by the Marc by Marc Jacobs boutique in LA ☆

It was the first time going so I didn't know they had a boutique brand, 

'Jacobs for Marc Jacobs'.

For those of you who don't know, this line is VERY affordable ♪



Here is the pair of rain boots I got for $28. 

I heart the dark purple with the light purple soles 

They had other colors too (blue, orange, and grey, I think).

More to follow.....



Note: My friend wanted one in a particular size they didn't have out on the floor. She asked a lady who worked there and she said the ones on the floor were the only ones left. Another guy who worked there later asked us if we needed another size so this time she asked him. He spent 10 minutes in the back and found her size in the color she wanted. 

Thank you to the very nice employee!!!
