So my favorite thing about shopping is getting home and laying everything out... just so I can remember all the fabulous things I found. And it's even better if I have an audience to display them to ;) ;) Well right now I couldn't be much happier (shopping wise anyway) because, as I blog, I am sprawled out in my living room floor. And my 3 year old is pulling out all of the fabulous things we got at Divine Consign tonight.
I will admit... I was a DC virgin. Had some idea what I was getting into, but was pleasantly surprised. My eyes lit up when I realized how organized it was (organization and I are great friends.) And on top of that, we got the following steals:
A Halloween Costume for my precious girl. She's gonna be Pocahontas, which I could not be MORE thrilled with because she is totally in love with Indians and princessess right now! And b/c it was $5 and it's much more original than all the $50- $100 costumes I'd almost talked myself into splurging on.
3 adorable dresses (2 with matching leggings)
A PERFECT Christmas dress, perfect for pictures, church, gatherings... whatever!
3 great, dressy sweaters
a few more matching outfits (cute tops with jeans, sweat pants, etc.. including a real cute Halloween outfit that looks like it came from a boutique. very cute)
A pair of cute casual pants.
3 pairs of fall/winter PJs
5 pairs of shoes, including the CUTEST slouch boots that are probably still too big... but there was NO way I was walking out without them! Also, some tennis shoes, Mary Janes, black dress shoes, and some others that will be great for preschool.
1 pair of rain boots
1 pair of elmo slippers that she just HAD to have!
The other perks of the evening? She had an amazing time and she feels totally spoiled! And mommy only spent $109 for what will make up a good chunk of her fall and winter wardrobe! :D :D :D :D
After a super-crummy day, this sure was a nice way to end it. Now off to wash one of the long sleeved dresses... because it looks like she will actually be able to wear it to church in the morning! Yep, 78 high in Texas! That, too, makes up for the rest of today's crumminess. :-P
Have a great weekend!
Melissa
Sounds like you really did great on the bargain hunting!
