100th Post: Style for under $100

Nicole Price — Sat, 27 Sep 2008 17:16:13 +0000

Hi All, I have now been blogging for most of this year and this is a landmark 100^th post for this blog! I feel some sense of achievement and also wanted to mark the occasion with a post about some stylish looks for under $100. So read on and tell me what you think:

I loved these Boyfriend straight jeans in stretch for $39.50 in dark blue (the best color for denim ever). Team the jeans with this banded tank top for $11 from Go Jane, (visit this page to take a look at some really affordable but smart items for under $25) and then add a smart pair of shoes such as these stylish red shoes for $39 and you have a pretty stylish, go anywhere ensemble which can take you clubbing, and intimate dinner date, or anything.

This sweetheart neckline dress from Victoria’s secret straightaway ups the formality quotient, and at $69,(down from $98) I thought this was a pretty good deal. The ankle boots in the picture were too expensive for my tastes so I found these other brown shoes for just $12 which I thought would go well with a mid calf length dress. Just FYI, lots of cheap and cheerful shoes to be found here, take a look.

I loved these casual and relaxed but really smart drawstring linen pants for just $13.99. Team the Capris with this smart white top from Macy’s for just $9.99. Then add these canvas braided raffia wedges for $10 and you have an outfit for under 50 bucks than under 100, so that’s a bit of moolah left over for a bag or some nice accessories that you had your eye on, take your pick!

So thanks all, for reading my blog and giving me the support and encouragement you have. Keep doing that and soon I’ll be doing my 200^th post too, God willing!

Mother’s Day Gift Ideas

Nicole Price — Tue, 13 May 2008 17:00:58 +0000

This post may be a bit late because Mother’s day was two days back. It maybe a bit late to actually start looking for a gift to give or send your mother. But what is the surprise in giving a gift when it is expected? Instead send it some days later and really surprise her . Okay, thats a lame excuse, but since I’m running a bit late this time, that’s the one I’m gonna stick to. Personally I think flowers and candy are just a little bit passé, and they don’t really last for any length of time, so better bet is to get her something that is more permanent and which will remind her for a longer time of what a good son or daughter you are.

While the traditional photo frame is a good idea, if your mother is more techno savvy, give her a digital photo frame. I liked this digital photo frame keychain at Amazon for $14.03. It has a built in rechargeable battery and has a 1.5-inch CSTN LCD full-color display; stores over 60 photos. If your mother is the type who whips out the pictures of the kids to show to all and sundry she will love this!

One idea that grandmothers seem to love is if you bronze their grandchild’s shoes for them. Baby shoe bronzing allows you to celebrate and remember your child’s first experiences in a unique way and it makes a super gift for Grandma! Apparently this process is available in bronze, pewter, gold, porcelain, and silver, and for items other than shoes as well. You can get shoes bronzed here for $39.95 and for an additional $7 you can get the shoes personalized with the child’s name and date of birth! This is a wonderful idea and if I were a grandmother, I would be moved to tears by this lovely idea.

Amazon has some great ideas for mother’s day. They have patio furniture, solar birdbath fountain and garden lanterns for outdoorsy mom, a really good collection of stuff for chef mom, some very elegant items for entertainer mom, tasteful things for decorator mom, and even some very innovative and unusual stuff for trendy mom and mom who has it all! Go on take your pick; you are the best person to decide what your mother would like!

Shoes, Shoes, and Then Some More Shoes

Regular readers here will know about my love for shoes at a discount. If you are a woman, it will instantly be clear, the spell that shoe shopping can cast; the driving force that lust for shoes can be! If you are a man, try and work with me here, if you can’t empathize, at least try to sympathize. Let’s explore some online shoe shops today.

A site that sells all kinds of stuff including shoes is Zappos. They have shoes, clothing, bags, accessories and all kinds of other stuff. While this is not one of your bargain sites, it has the attractive feature of free shipping both ways (if the shoe doesn’t fit, ship it back free of charge). What interested me about the site is its designer shoes on sale segment which you may want to check out.

Piper lime is also a site that offers free shipping both ways. I loved these Thong dress sandals for $40. I also liked their smart gray pumps for $ 50. They have a really nice selection of shoes for under $75.

Another site for shoes is the self explanatory shoes.com with a very substantial sale section. These black crinkle patent shoes cost just $19.99; I think they are really smart.

Now sole fetish may not be to everyone’s taste, but there’s no cost to browse, so let’s check it out. If you are looking to stand out in a crowd, then this may be the place for you. As is my habit, I headed straight for the sale section there as well and look what I found: these (ahem!) eye-catching blue canvas boots were on sale for $55. And I actually liked these pink sandals for $70, down from $180.

Urban Original is another site which you may want to check out; it offers apparel, shoes, accessories, swimwear, lingerie, etc. There I found these lovely wedges for $14.99 down from 39.99! These black boots are available for the bargain price of $14.99 too, down from $79.99!

These gladiator like boot sandals are available for $ 30.99 down from $79.99.

Some of these shoes just made me salivate! Going shoe shopping anyone?
