Professional Shopper.

I have officially landed the best deal known to mankind. For $65 I purchased three pairs of shoes that would usually total at an epic $230.

How did I do this? Couponing online. First, only look at SALE items. This can cut off the majority of your cost (My most expensive shoes purchased today were $60 on sale, $160 originally). Then, add your favorite items to your cart and begin searching for the hidden deals. Many websites offer gift cards for signing up for their emails. Many even allow you to use two discount codes (if you have two emails subscribe both) and then you can double your discount. Today, I earned $20 for signing up to receive emails that I can instantly unsubscribe to. After doing this look for the special codes to get free shipping (these are typically located at the top of the page). Finally, if you  have the energy google coupons for the store you are ordering from. This way you may even find the awesome deal I did, allowing me to get two additional pairs of (sale item only) shoes for a steal when spending over $50.

And there you have it -- How I managed to save $165 dollars (not including taxes) and get free shipping.

Today's outfit --

(Absolutely loving my outfit today so I just had to get photos! Such a light and fun summer dress for a shopping day. We intended to find me a few work shirts but instead returned with a huge stock of H&M clothing. . . and of course no work shirts :/. I now have two more pairs of skinny jeans and four shirts, my boyfriend came home with one pair of jeans, two sweaters, and three shirts. I guess we had our priorities!) 

(The favorite shot of the day, entirely unintended.)

(My reaction to finding out my skirt had flown up.) 

(My beautiful birthday present/ replacement ring from my boyfriend)

(Strange Coloring sorry! -- I'm in love with these shoes. They are neon pink and clear, perfect to show off my foot tattoo. These shoes go wonderfully with darker outfits to give a pop of much needed color.) 

Shoes -- Aldo

Belt -- H&M

Dress -- Urban Outfitters

It's all about Sandals!

As of late I've been on a sandal kick. I've never owned more than the basic pair of thong sandals (or of course heels) and finally decided it was time to invest in a few pairs. A friend and I went to Indy last weekend and shopped up a storm.

I found these two pairs (called the Exhale) for 50$ together at a store called Bakers.

I adore the studs as they add a bit of punk into a mundane style. 

I also purchased these next shoes this morning as a "I just scheduled my first surgery" present. 

For $14 dollars I got these fun neon sandals at Aldo online. (I love finding shoes on sale!) No idea what I'll pair them with yet, but I don't think you can go wrong with such a bright color in such a dark, cold summer. 

Also--Sorry for the long absence from my blog, between finals, health issues, work, and family I've been quite busy.
