New Shoes are on their way!

I was sick at home this weekend, and very bored, so got sucked into some online shopping. Shoes.com was having a sale so I ordered these great shoes. Hopefully they're just as cute in person.

BC Footwear - Gimme Some Sugar wedge - super cute and an amazing deal

Michael Kors - Newton peeptoe - I've been eyeing these for a while

Via Spiga - Book sandals - if they're as comfy as they are cute these will be my favorite sandal this summer

Upcoming Denim Sample Sales

The Underground Denim Sale is this weekend at the Embarcadero Center.

The Warehouse Sale is coming back to San Francisco on Sunday, March 4th. You need to RSVP for this one.

Both of these have long lines, but great deals!

Red Kenneth Cole Tote

Just got this fab red tote by Kenneth Cole Reaction from Smartbargains . It's big, but not too big. Although I'm going to test if my laptop will fit in it.

Grace at Bloomies

Little Grace had her first visit to Bloomies to check out the after xmas sale. She got an adorable nightie... on sale, of course!

"Daaarling... I always shop at Bloomies"

I feel pretty :-)

Whewww... shopping is tiring!

Great shopping in SF!

Katherine and I went to the Billion Dollar Babes sample sale yesterday. I got a beautiful silk blouse by Wendy Hil and a gorgeous cashmere cardigan from Tree.

Kimball and I went shopping today and we both had good luck at Urban Outfitters.
I got this lovely sweater dress, along with an adorable babydoll sweater and cute printed tee (couldn't find pics for the sweater or tee).

I should also mention my very exciting purchase recently of a fabulous motorcycle-style black leather jacket from Karen Millen (wonderful new store from the UK in the new San Francisco Centre). I wish I could find a picture of it, it's really outstanding.

Bloomingdale's Opening Day

Bloomingdale's just opened in San Francisco. I went with Sarah and Kaz to the preview night. Five floors of fabulous shopping!


Kaz makes friends!


Sarah's Favorite... Elie Tahari

Shoe Diva Party

Sarah, Anne, and I went to the latest Shoe Diva party at Macy's.


Runway show


Wacky Betsy Johnson shoes!

Napa Outlets Labor Day Trip

Sarah drove us to the Napa Outlets on Labor Day. Got several lovely new things.
















I got these great BCBG "Daria" wool trousers.
















Also got these adorable gloves from Timberland.

Couldn't find pictures but also got a charcoal wool blend dress and brown satin quilted jacket at Banana Republic, and socks at Calvin Klein.

Shoe Spree at Nordstrom

Went to Nordstrom after work last night to pick up some more of the wonderful Creamy Concealor by Bobbie Brown (works great on my dark circles) and got sucked into the shoe department. I picked up these two adorable pairs of shoes... just shows that you always find good stuff when you're not looking.
Love these distressed peep toe Mary Janes by Seychelles
I kept coming back to these sweet patent leather pumps by Boutique 58. I was really attracted to the heel, much lower that I've been getting lately, and hoping that they'll be a little more walkable than most of my shoes!

New Rounded Toe Pumps

I ordered these adorable rounded toe pumps by N.Y.L.A. from Nordstrom last week on sale for only $39.90. The price has since gone down, but they don't have my size anymore. Glad I jumped on it. They're very cute, and actually pretty comfortable!

Upcoming Sample Sales

Just thought I'd share with you the sample sales coming up in San Francisco:

Shecky's Girls Night Out - cocktails and shopping on May 25th
The Warehouse Sale - another denim sample sale on June 4th
Chic Summer Soiree - another cocktails & shopping event on June 8th

I'm definitely going to Shecky's, already got my tix!

Underground Denim Sample Sale

Just got back from the wonderful Underground Demin sample sale at the Embarcadero Center. It was a 2 hour wait to get in, but the deals were worth it (making friends in line helped with the waiting too... thanks ladies!). They had a great selection of denim, t-shirts, sweats, and summer skirts.

I got these James Jeans...
these Joe's Jeans...
this People's Liberation hoodie (in blue)...
and this Ella Moss asymetrical skirt (in blue)

also got a couple of great Splendid shirts and a Linea Pelle belt. The prices were great, $60 each for the jeans, $30 each for the hoodie, skirt, and belt, and $15 each for the shirts.

Pre-Vacation Shopping Spree

Went on a pre-vacation shopping spree on Sunday with Sarah. Got a couple great pairs of sandals, like the Max Studio sandals pictured here on sale 40% off at Macy's. I couldn't find a picture of the beautiful Calvin Klein sandals that I got there... too bad they're adorable.

Also got a bunch of cute clothes to wear during my vacation in Costa Rica at H&M and Zara.

Luv Shoes?

Macy's had another fun shoe event tonight called Luv Shoes? featuring Meghan Cleary. What could be wrong with shoes and cocktails (thanks Bacardi Melon)? Nothing... that's what. Wasn't quite in the mood to actually buy any of the cute springy shoes on a cold and rainy night, but Sarah picked up a couple pairs... go Sarah!

Here's a pic of me with a cocktail (of course) and a shoe cookie :-)

Nicole's Big Girl Shoes

My friend Nicole just bought her first pair of shoes with heels. I'm so proud of her!
They are this very cute pair of Seychelles.

Denim Sample Sale

Went to the big denim sample sale today put on by The Warehouse Sale. This was their first time visiting SF and the crowds were crazy. We waited in line to get in over an hour and the line to the dressing room was probably a half hour... yikes!

The selection was huge though. I've never seen so many jeans in one place. Check out the huge 'pile 'o jeans' in the dressing room.





I ended up with another pair of Yanuk jeans. You may remember that I got a pair at the last Billion Dollar Babes sale. The price here wasn't as good as at BDB, but it was still about 1/2 off.
















Patrice got fabulous pair of Kasil jeans, price looks to be well over 50% off too.

Mega Shoe Deal

Scored a great deal on a pair of Aerosole wedge mocs at DSW the other day. They were on clearance, and I had a $5 off coupon. Grand total..... $5.40!!!!! Got them in black. The pic is of a slightly different shoe, but very close.

P.S. I've been shopping quite a bit at H&M lately, but can't find pics of the goods, so haven't posted my purchases there to the blog. Let me just say.... Fabulous!!!!!!!

This blog is famous!

Well... sort of. The Budget Fashionista (a great site) has started a listing of blogs, and I'm on it! Very exciting. Please check it out!
