Patience...Young Grasshopper... Clearance is Worth the Wait!!!

Patience is something that I would say I have a lot of...and at times too much...long story. Anywho, I can always hold out for something that I want to go on sale and even better...CLEARANCE!!!! I love to shop but the current state of my pocketbook puts limitations and my FUND$! So I wait and I wait and then I wait some more.

All this to say...I fell in love with the Missoni for Target collection as soon as I saw a glimpse of it in the late summer. I knew that I was not gonna rush out to purchase a piece but I did want to take a look at the collection in person. When I went to Target about two days after the collection was in the store, the pickin's were slim to none. :(

Well yesterday was my lucky day! While at Target shopping for household goods (using GREAT Target coupons that were going to expire yesterday, coupled with manufacturers' coupons) I lucked up on this baby...

...for the low price of...DRUM ROLL PLEASE...$11.98...original Retail Price $39.99! I was super excited! I searched the Internet to see if I could find the skirt in other places. Craigslist has the same skirt for $50 and on EBay for as high as $99.99. I must say, I really got a deal! I'll be sure to follow up with how I wear this awesome skirt!

Until the next time-

Final October Shades of Pink Week #4

Hey Now! For the final week of the Shades of Pink series, I chose 'Boom Boom' by Sinful Colors Professionals (retails for about $1.99 at Walgreen's) and I must say that is my FAV of all the weeks. This hue is a hot magenta pink with blue undertones and more representative of me! : ) I used three coats and then for a little extra excitement I created an accent nail using Avon's Mosaic Effects Top Coat! Avon's version of 'Crackle' or 'Shatter' gives the same look and effect at a fraction of the cost... a mere $3.99!!










 Until the next time!

October Shades of Pink Week #3

For the third week of 'Shades of Pink' in recognition of Breast Cancer Awareness, I chose a shade that is iridescent, lighter and softer than the previous weeks. This is a color is called "You Just Wait" by Sinful Colors Professionals and here it goes! It is a drastic change as I usually reach for super bright colors or extremely dark colors. What do you think about this shade?



Unitil the next time-

October Shades of Pink Week #2

For my second installment of 'Shades of Pink' in recognition of Breast Cancer Awareness, I chose a shade that is a tad bit lighter and softer than last weeks shade. Again this is a color by Avon Nailwear Pro called Peach Passion. However, I think that I added a splash of red to it a while back to darken it up a bit. I am known to play with the colors and mix them up for the desired shade. So here it goes!


Below is last week's color.



Until the next time!

They $4 each with $1 going to the Breast Cancer Research Foundation. If you are interested in a bracelet and would like to order one, feel free to contact me at mrssallymae@gmail.com.
