I have been running all around town the past couple of days searching for the perfect finishing touches for my {most awesome, wonderful, exciting ever} Halloween costume*. In doing so, I came across so many wonderful fall accessories, clothes & things from cheap & unexpected places, and although I am a poor, unemployed lady, I do hope to go back and buy them all when the bank account allows. In the meantime, I would like to document them.. so I don’t forget. Here goes.
First off, Payless: Well played. I don’t usually shop here, but I just walked in while returning a pair of jeans at the mall and the brands they carry called Brash & American Eagle are wonderful. These are the shoes I need:
(American Eagle $39.99)
(Brash on sale for $39.99)
Next I was stoked to see Walmart’s clothing selection has improved greatly. These super soft and stylish sweaters were in the ladies apparel section of Wally World.
(This is not exactly the same, the one I liked was fluffier, longer and only $12 as opposed to this $16 one)
Charlotte Russe got me all kinds of excited when I saw all their beautiful pairs of tights & double-finger rings.
(2 for $12)
(Charlotte Russe 2 for $10)
And finally, I’ve been looking for the perfect pair of rain boots that are affordable and stylin’ since it’s been monsooning in the sunshine state. I have yet to find them, but I’m hoping for a (much) cheaper version of these by Jimmy Choo / Hunter Wellington:
In other news, I had my follow up appointment today for my knee and it turns out I have Patellar Tendinitis instead of just IT Band tightness, so I am supposed to lay off running for three weeks (agh!) while concentrating on leg strengthening exercises and then we’ll reevaluate. I am so ready for this thing to heal & start training for my first full marathon.
*My costume is going to be a surprise, but I’m really, really stoked about it in case you couldn’t tell.
