Baby Budget Blog: Milly

Since I thought yesterday was today and posted the Instagram shots a day early (duhduh, Amy), you guys are gonna get an extra post from me this week :) Thanks for all your cool comments on that post by the way! I'm so glad you like my candid kinda everyday shots!

So, for the longest time, I've wanted over-the-knee boots but couldn't find a pair that didn't make me feel like a street-walker. Found this pair at Victoria's Secret, and since they have a pretty basic silhouette, are flats and just skim the top of my knee, I took the chance and bought them. Vickies also has them in a gorgeous brown, but I exercised some self-control (yes, occasionally it wins out) and just went with the black pair.

What think ye ladies of the over-the-knee boot?

What I'm Wearing:
Boots: Report via Victoria's Secret (check them out in brown here)
Free People Lace Dress
Hat: Asos
Collar: Asos
Tights: Milly via Bloomingdales
Lipstick: Mac

Awesome weekend wishes to all!

I first discovered Asos.com through Lucky Magazine. Well, of course I stayed up for long hours of the night perusing all the goodies until I landed on these high-paperbag-waist leather shorts by t.b.a. and had to have them. The steep price of $264 was somewhat a deterrent, so I decided to do a Google search to see if any other store carried them. Sure enough, they popped up on Urban Outfitters for a whopping $100 less. Imagine my excitement! Then it was over to my trusty retailmenot.com website for additional coupons, and, of course, I found one that would take an additional $30 off AND free shipping! SCORE!!

Tips from a shopaholic

1. If you shop at Urban Outfitters on line, don't forget to search the web for coupon codes. You can use multiple coupons on the same purchase. (i.e., if you have three coupons codes, enter one in at the time of checkout and make sure to update your order; hit the back button and enter the second coupon code and so forth and so on.)

2. ALWAYS do a web search for an item first before buying it from one website. Just because you are web shopping doesn't mean you can't go to the next store to price hunt. And most store websites will price match if you see the exact same item on another website for less.
