Treat of the Week 3.7.11

Me and the BFF hit up the outlet so needless to say there are A LOT of treats. (Yayyyy!) Some things were things I needed but most were things I just wanted to have cuz they were awesome. So I decided to pick the one thing that I absolutely loved as my Treat of the Week. I am sooo sick about how hot these are!

Converse Patent Leather Chuck Taylor















Pow.

Treat of the Week 2.28.11

This week I found some fun stuff a couple of different places. They were all pretty inexpensive so I don't feel too bad about picking up more than one thing.

Earrings from Forever21 $3.80

Hot Trendz Earrings $5.00

I love me some fun earrings. Did I NEED 3 new pairs? No. But that's not the point of a "treat" is it?

Last but not least. I just HAD to get these. They've been in my shopping cart at DSW for weeks now and I finally got some coupons and reward points. Wasn't going to get them without a discount. Call me cheap. I don't care. Either way. They're mine! And I already got the inaugural outfit picked out in my head...lol

Fassbuk

Fassbuk. That is all.

Treat of the Week 2.21.11

By far, my most exciting purchase of the year (but the year isn't over!). I've been scheming on this bag for about 6 months now. I am forever the "wait for it to go on sale" girl. It refused to go on sale. Finally, I decided I couldn't wait. I got the last one. FINALLY ON SALE. Crisis averted.

Juicy Couture 'Bel Air' Leather Shoulder Bag

 

Treat of the Week 2.14.11

I caught this one on a crazy sale from Endless.com. Seems like lately I've been getting things just in the nick of time and at awesome prices. This was the last one! Hopefully my shopping luck will hold up throughout the rest of the year, I've got way too much stuff I need to buy. It also comes in black and I do believe I have the perfect shoes.

Sidenote: If you decide to get this bag, PLEASE do some comparison shopping. They're charging way too much for it on the Vieta Pierre website and I got it for less than half the price somewhere else.

Treat of the Week 2.7.11

I'm not even going to explain why I got the old school bamboo earrings. Let's just say, it's still the early 90's in my head. All I need is a big dookie rope chain and I'm good. (Don't worry, that's on my list too...lol) You can find these pretty much everywhere.

The tee is from Alloy. It's totally cute and I LOVE the super long sleeve. (Not to mention it's crazy cheap too.) I've been doing an off the shoulder thing lately that I'm loving and this one is easy to dress up or down.

Sidenote: When I went back to get the link for you guys, it was gone already!! Glad I got mine!

Bamboo Hoop Earrings

Treat of the Week 1.31.11

Something about these boots makes me wanna say "I'm here to kick ass and chew bubble gum. And I'm all outta bubble gum." I hesitate to tell you where I got them, I MUST be the only one with these.

Studded Leather Ankle Boots

Treat of the Week 1.24.11

Sephora by O.P.I. Nail Colour - Already Famous

Love it!! That is all.

Treat of the Week 1.17.11

I've been wracking my brain trying to figure out what I'm going to do differently this year. Not so much resolutions as "things I'd like to do just cuz I think they'd be cool". It's been difficult because I've accomplished a lot that I hadn't planned on before the year ended.

One of things I came up with is that every week I would buy something for myself that I need/want/been looking at for a month or more. The logic behind this (just go with me on this for a minute) is kinda like the logic behind dieting. You know how when you're on a diet you usually deprive yourself of things you normally eat that you consider bad for you? Then after all the sacrifice and starvation you one day you find yourself headfirst in the fridge with a fistful of cheesecake and flecks of bacon bits in your hair? There are usually long stretches of time where I won't buy ANYTHING for myself and then when I do, I OD. So I'm thinking just like with dieting, moderation is key. Also, it helps to treat yourself so often so you don't go overboard when you finally decide to do whatever it is you're trying to abstain from.

These things can't be random. No impulse purchases and if they are they have to be justified. For example, if I happen to shopping with the Twin and I see something I like, I'm not going to just buy it. It has to either be on the "Master List" (more about that later) or there has to be some REALLY GOOD reason why I need it. It has to "go with" something I already own. None of that "Hey those shoes are cute, but they don't match anything. Excuse to go shopping!!


This leads me to my Treat of the Week. Whenever i find something I've got a great deal on or is really interesting or I just plain decide I LOVE, I feel the need to share it. I'm nice like that :)

I've been doing this every week since the year started and I'm building quite the collection. Ok, it's only been 2 weeks, but still... I'm right on schedule. This week's treat is...

A Juicy Couture Starter Charm Bracelet

Juicy Couture

What? I know I'm grown and I have no business rocking this, but I don't care. I love it. Plus, I have all these fun Juicy charms and no bracelet to wear them with. *blank stare*
I needed a new one and I kept saying I'd get it, but I never did. I have no idea why. Finally I just said screw it. I got a discount too so that helped. (Hooray for discounts!!) Anyway, I've got a whole list of stuff and about 50 more weeks so stay tuned!
