Back AGAIN with more buys from my favorite store ever- ZARA USA and an awesome brand that brings out the Nasty Gal in every girl! I have been trying to practice more self-control when it comes to my shopping habits, but who can resist a great sale?! I have decided to put myself on a budget, so I can't spend more than $200 a month on clothes, shoes, and handbags. This was my shopping for January! I also only buy items that I can use sooner rather than later, to avoid unjust shopping. I am supposed to be going out of town next weekend, so a few of the pieces were in preparation for that. I also wanted to improve my school wardrobe, so one piece is for that. The others were just great buys...who can pass those up?! Don't worry, the self-control is coming soon, I promise. Check out all the pieces!....
First, let's start with a little Nasty Gal!
I started on this site looking for something to wear on an upcoming girls trip, then came across the sale section. All of their Sale Items were up to an extra 70% off! That was side-track even the best of shoppers. Here are four of the awesome SALE items I couldn't leave behind!
For the longest I have wanted a zip up crop top! The looonnngeesssst! When I saw this one I could not leave it out of my bag! I had to buy a medium, but I didn't mind the more baggy look. When I tried it on, it fit just right!
Kalia Ribbed Crop Top- $19.00 (50% OFF)
For once, in a long time, I bought something with school in mind. I rarely do any shopping for my life as a teacher (find out more about that here), but the first thing I thought about when I saw this skirt was how ca-ute it would look in my classroom, like with the boots from my last Zara haul!
Trailblazer Vegan Suede Maxi Skirt- $27.70 (60% OFF)
You ever bought something because you liked how it was styled on the site? Of course you have! Well, that;'s why I bought this shirt. End of story!
Nasty Gal Harper Lace Up Top- $20.40 (70% OFF)
This skirt didn't necessarily make me think of school, but I did think it would go perfectly with the green zip up crop top and some black booties I got from Public Desire! That was a good reason to buy it, right?! ;)
Jean Girls Denim Skirt- $23.40 (70% OFF)
Two shirts, two skirts all for a grand total of...
$68, including the $5 for shipping!
(That shipping almost had me cancel the whole order, no lie!)
Now for a little ZARA zest!
You know any time I am looking for something chic, this is one of my first stops. Sadly, I was sucked into their sale section,,,again!
I have never owned a pair of denim, long overalls, but when I see them on others I swoon! I could not believe how cute these were, not to mention the price! $16?!!!! This was a easy as 1-2-3!
Denim Dungarees- $15.99
I could not get over how sexy this top was, without being too revealing. I am trying to purchase more "adult" like clothing that offers sex appeal in other ways than boobies hanging out, tight fits, and super short. Plus, I LOVE the hardware around the next, versus just a regular hatler. I'm only wondering how to get it over my head....;/
Lastly is this gorgeous bucket bag! I've never owned one and I want a wider variety of handbags, so this was perfect. Initially I chose one with a lot studds and hardware, but knowing myself, I knew that would get old to me really quickly! Luckily I found this one that offered more of a classic look. See that red liner?!!! That's what really sold me!
Bucket Bag with Details- $29.99
Three bomb items all for a grand total of...
71.97, with FREE SHIPPING! I can dig it!
Two shopping sprees, 7 pieces, and a happy girl for under $150! I'm thinking that's a good buy!
Indulge in shopping sprees, but with control!
