Recent McQueen treasure

Ok, I'm going overboard with these blogs today. What can I say...I have a lot to share. Recently I had an Alexander McQueen moment. I drove by his boutique on Melrose on my way to Saks shortly after his death. His boutique was closed but his devoted fans stopped to bring flowers to his storefront memorial. So I end up at Saks, aimlessly wandering for deals when I notice a McQueen scarf that calls to me. The scarf is his trademark skull scarf but the color was so subtle and so unlike the usual bold color choices. I just thought it was so different I had to have it! I walk over to the sales lady and told her I would like to purchase the scarf and to my surprise she says to me it's on sale. WHAT???? A McQueen scarf on sale when his death increased the sale of his scarves by 1400%? I guess that scarf was just meant to be mine. Perfect McQueen scarf $260...finding out this scarf was on sale for $79, PRICELESS!!!

Note: picture does not do the color of the scarf justice!

Bloomingdales now through March 14th

I was recently at Bloomingdales at the Beverly Center and was shocked to see that all sale items are an additional 40% off. I picked up some great staples and as I was paying was told I would receive an additional $25 off purchases over $100. It's a promotion good until March 14th, so ladies make sure you check out this sale! I picked up a KAIN white tee that was originally $84 for $35.84 and for those of you who are familiar with KAIN tees, you know the material is like budda! Another one of my finds is a tiered, flirty skirt by Aqua originally $78 for $25.42. This skirt can be dressed up or dressed down and is a great addition to my spring wardrobe. Tiered skirts are so on trend and is a must for spring and summer.

When I got home, I checked the sale online and for some reason bloomindales.com is not offering the additional 40% off so if you can make it to the store, get there! It's definitely worth it!

Let's share our finds!

Hello fellow bloggers! This is my first attempt at blogging even though I've been a fan of reading blogs for the past few years. With that said, I can explain why I am starting my own blog. I am a compulsive shopper, mostly on-line, and I am a self-professed expert at locating discounts, sales, and bargains and I would like to network with others like myself to share our great "finds". I have been a member of purseblog.com and have frequently taken advantage of the great deals posted on purseforum's deals and steals and as much as I like those sites, I feel there should be a way to show off our finds and even share our thoughts of the items we find. I would love to share the great deals and even review these items to determine if the items are true finds or just a waste of money in the long run. Photos are highly encouraged... where's the fun if we can't visually see the fruits of our labor!
