The Want List #1

So, I've seen a lot of people doing this on their blogs. Posting pictures of things they have fallen in love with and making the rest of us a little curious as to why. An upcoming birthday? A Bar Mitzwa? Do I owe you money? Anyways, I thought the idea was fun and decided to do my own series. Here is my "want" (really need!) list for last month; June.

1. National Trend Embroidered Handbag- Ever seen a bag which made you spend all your money on it so you no longer had any money to put in it? I'm sure if I were rich enough to afford this, it would be my case. Usually I don't carry or like big bags, but this one was love at first sight for me. The detailing and hanging tassels, just wow. lol

2. Owl Phone Case-This is so pretty! I drop my phone a lot and still haven't been able to get myself a case for it. Although this case isn't meant for a "Samsung Galaxy" (which is what I have) for some reason I still have it in my eBay shopping cart. o.0

3. Owl Cookie Jar- Who stole the cookie from the cookie jar? I know I wouldn't just so I wouldn't scratch up this gem. I never really got the point of keeping a cookie jar but this owl shaped one would make such a statement on the kitchen counter. It even comes with two baby owl decorations. And yes, I like owls, thanks for noticing.

4. Classic Floor Length Maxi- This dress to me is perfect in every possible way. Beautiful but simple enough to wear out to a lot of places. Not overdone, but just right. Comes in many different color choices, but I don't think you could go wrong with red.

So that went better than I expected...thanks for reading! :)

Now About Those Hair Ties...

The problem I have with hair ties is the fact that I lose them most  all the time! Either they get lost at the bottom of my purse, where I no longer have access to them, or just have a sort term memory moment; put them someplace and forget. Well, not anymore I say! 

Here's a neat idea I saw for keeping those hair ties in place for when you need them the most. 

All you need is a clip keychain and a pack of hair ties. Pretty neat, huh? 

Affordable and practical. Now let's hope I dont lose the keychain...

Where To Shop (For Clothes) When You're Broke

Let's face it, the economy is tough, and there are still times where we may need to look our best. Well, you don't always have to spend a ton to look like star. I've compiled a short list of my favorite online sites to get the best clothes for your money. New and with price tags! ;)

• 599fashion- I have listed this site first, because it's the cheapest online clothing site I've found so far which sells brand new clothing for women. I've ordered from here numerous times and all my items have arrived to me safely and in a timely manner. Usually just 4 days!

You will like it if: 

1. You want brand new simple clothing for women. 
2. Have trouble finding plus sizes. (This site caters a lot of cute plus size clothing!)
3. Like sites where there are daily new arrivals.

• lnlclothing- I discovered this site recently and boy am I happy I did! They offer a ton of cute and beautiful clothes (mainly dresses) for $7.99 and less! Some of their clothes are also from Forever 21! 

You will like it if: 

1. You have an obsession with cute dresses.
2. Want reliable good quality.

• everything5pounds- Here is a really good UK based site if you're looking for unique and fashionable clothing with an affordable price tag. They offer a HUGE collection of shoes and you really never get tired of browsing through it.

You will like it if: 

1. You want to own something no one else owns.
2. You don't mind ordering from oversees if you are in the states.

• wholesale-dress- For only a few bucks, I can get a completely new wardrobe here. They offer a lot of clothing which aims to replicate designer looks straight off the runway. However, I would beware, since they lack in quality on some of their items. From my experience, you usually can't go wrong with their jewelry and bags. Keep an eye out for their shoes and clothing, and make sure you double check their size chart! 

You will like it if: 

1. You like designer-inspired clothing.
2. Don't mind that some clothing are imitations.
3. Want to build your wardrobe for less. 

Hope these sites come in handy the next time you want to look your best while staying on a budget.
