This smile? The result of an impromptu shopping trip.<\/span><\/p>

I stopped by Nordstrom’s NYC flagship store a few weeks ago to see what they have. If you’ve never been there, there’s floors of designer labels accompanied with a restaurant and bar. My main stop was the top floor where they have Topshop. It fits well and they launch various designs so I usually find something I like.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>

While ripping through the sale rack, I stumbled across this mint green coat. It was the last one and in my size. I was like, “this can’t be!” Instead of paying the full retail price of $95, I paid $63. Can we say, yesss!\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

Another win was this ASOS polkadot dress.\u00a0<\/span>Listen, if you have time, this online retailer has great items for cheap. And now with the addition of customer reviews to their website, you can see if something is worth buying.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>

This dress in particular had terrible reviews. People said it fits like a trash bag and even the smallest size is huge. I mean, it is advertised as an oversized shirt dress, so for $13, I decided to buy it and pair it with a skinny black belt. Having a good belt will cinch the waist of a dress with no problem.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

Fashion takes inspiration. <\/span><\/p>

Sometimes it’s not about taking a garment at face value, but looking at it’s potential.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>

Also, these heels were a great buy! It’s made of this silver metallic textile that screams expensive. It reminds me of something I would see in J. Crew.<\/span><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t
