Mall Haul

Summer time! And that means... Shopping! Oh how I adore shopping. It is so much fun, but can get you in to trouble. So I try to avoid that by shopping smart and thrifty, yet pretty and chic. SO, this is what I got.



This is my lovely dress. I just love it. It is super cute and super summery. This I found on the clearance rack at Macy's. There is always a clearance rack at Macy's and this is where I always go to first. You just can always find great things for really great prices. This was only $10, and it is a dark blue sundress with circles which are also blue and some stretchy stuff on the back. It also has a band around the front and middle, which helps define the waist and make the cut really flattering.  I really like this!

Now these...oh la la.. so love these. I also got these at Macy's in the shoe clearance isle. There isn't always a clearance isle at the shoes, but I always keep an eye out for one. And when I went there was one!
These shoes I absolutely love! They are material girl, which is Madonna's brand. They were only $17! So yay. I really like the buckle with the studs on the front, kind of gives them an edge and the inside is zebra striped, which is cool. Also under pants, they kind of look like boots, and they are grey, which I love!
Victoria's Secret is still having their big sale, so I checked them out again and found a few eye shadows. The brand is called Beauty Rush, and I've gotten them before at their big Semi Annual sale. I would probably only buy them then, just because they are $7 normally, and to me, that is just too much. But these were on sale for $1.75 each (SCORE!) So I did snatch up a few more. 

                                           
The first one is called Crystal Ball, and I thought that this one would be great as a highlighter. It is super shimmery and white. It did come off a lil too shimmery for me, so I might use it with a matte eye, but I'm not too sure yet if I'm gonna use it much. The next one is called Gold rush. I am obsessed with this color. It has been my go to summer eye shadow. It is like a shimmery gold and it is so simple but summery and I just love it. I will have to show this one off in a makeup picture. The last one was recommended to me by one of the sales people. It is called Glammerald. Its OK. It is really pigmented, and very deep green. I mostly use this in my crease to give my neutral eye some color.

Here are the swatches, and as you can see, they are very pigmented.
More shoes! YAY! I have been looking for some more simple sandals for the summer, and I just happened to find these at Wet Seal. They were buy one get one for .01 on all clearance, so I bought two sandals. These first ones are a gladiator inspired purple sandal. I was a little worried about the straight across on the toes, but they are super comfy.
The other ones I bought were a black gladiator inspired sandal. (They just seem to be everywhere this Season) I like all the buckles, they just have an easy going vibe with an edge, which I really like.





These earrings I got at Forever 21 for $4.80. I love their jewelry because you can always find them at a good price.
They are just long earrings and the top is a triangle and kind of tribally/80's inspired. And I thought that was different. Then it is a silver chain that leads to big soft black feathers. I love these, but they are a very personal style piece. That not everyone will like. But I like how they kind of blend into my hair but still go with some of the trends in an edgy way. I really like edgy accessories, because my clothes tend to be girlie and I like to mix girlie and edgy together. So I thought that these were perfect for that.
                                                                          It's me!
Just some more pictures of the earrings, just so you can get a visual of what they look like on and off. Well that was about it for my mall shopping trip. Just remember to look for those clearance racks,the big sales, and to go to places that sell cheap items. Peaces, Stay TPC! :)
