You stud you- Saturday Shopping

I first noticed studded items when these Sam Edelman bow flats caught my eye during the Nsale. Mind you, this isn't really a new trend. I had a few studded items 20-25 year ago. When you get old enough, you realize fashion trends just recycle. I digress. I don't see this trend exploding for fall, but it is around and it's nice to have a couple of pieces to add some "edge" to a look now and then, so I rounded up  over 20 studded items for your Saturday shopping, most under $100.

Caslon ® Long Sleeve Slub Knit Tee (Regular & Petite) • Caslon • $17.90
Hue 'Ultra WW' Leggings (Regular & Plus Size) • Hue • $20.90

Whish TM Jumbo Body Butter ($47 Value) • $15



The Nordstrom Anniversary Sale is still going on. You have a few more days to shop (until Aug. 7). Lots of popular items have sold out but there's more to be found. Above are ten items under $25. These are some fun basics and some things you may not have thought about stocking up on. How about those no show socks? You know we all need them for booties and low profile shoes and loafers on those days when we want our feet warm and dry but don't want to look like we have on socks. And considering that Ulta (and Nordstrom) sells 5 ounces of the Whish body butter for $18 and you can get 13 ounces for $15 bucks, that's a steal (this one is a little different version and is an exclusive). I tried some of that stuff last Christmas in a special release winter fragrance from Ulta and loved it. I don't own any Hue leggings but I've heard great things about these wide waist band leggings.
 
Do you use ebates when you shop online? I do -when I remember- I could kick myself because I forget to sign in when I made my big Nsale order, ugh. It's a great way to pay yourself back for shopping. Sign  up here.
 
Did you catch my review of my Nsale purchases? What have you bought and loved so far or hated?
 
Want to know how to get a few things for just over a dollar? And I'm not talking about the Dollar Tree.  Right now JCPenney has out their $10 off $10 purchase coupons and I went in yesterday and purchased some new bath towels, wash cloths, and a hand towel for just a little over a dollar a piece. These items are on sale and with the $10 off they are pretty much free. You do have to do separate transactions for each coupon. Mine came in the mail, but your can print a $10 off $25 purchase from the JCP website.

Happy Shopping and saving!

Nothing special



 
tshirt- Wal-mart; shorts- ??
Brooch- No Plain T's
shoes- Payless
Worn: July 7, 2012

Nothing special about this outfit- it's a tshirt and shorts. But, it's so much cuter with the No Plain T's felt brooch. I have loved this accessory since the day it arrived. It's so easy to dress up a shirt or cardigan. Then "nothing special" becomes "not so plain."

Blues and greens





Blazer, pants- Sears; shirt- JCPenney's; necklace and shoes- Target

Navy goes with so many other colors. This time I paired it with a teal shirt and layered a turquoise and blue necklace over the ruffles. I also wore a brown belt and shoes- normally I would have went with black.

Here are some more fun blue/green accessories:

In my clutches

I remember when clutches were popular 25 or so years ago. I was a kid and my mom carried them. I never cared my for them, but now I'm really wanting one. Here are some cute ones:
