Prom Under $100

Queen Bee — Thu, 05 Jan 2012 04:47:04 +0000

The new year means a lot of things, but to me it means the beginning of Prom season! I’ve seen tons of gorgeous 2012 prom dresses already, but the penniless student in me still gravitates toward the deals.

All of these dresses are under $100, leaving plenty of funds left over for the shoes, purse, and jewelry!

Nordie’s Half Yearly Sale: Under $100

Queen Bee — Thu, 10 Nov 2011 16:43:17 +0000

Ladies, there are some deals and steals at the Nordstrom Half Yearly Sale! Don’t look in the Juniors section because there really isn’t anything that great this time around. Instead check out the Women’s section, particularly Savvy, Individualist, and t.b.d. That’s where you find fun brands like Free People and BCBG.

After spending too much time on their website, here are my favorite finds under $100.

Because who needs to spend more than $100 to look fabulous?

Nordie’s Half Yearly Sale: Shoe Edition

Queen Bee — Tue, 08 Nov 2011 18:47:38 +0000

The one great downfall of my move to Boise is the lack of Nordstrom. There isn’t one in the ENTIRE state! Though, thankfully, they are putting in a Nordstrom Rack sometime in 2012. This means I have to get my Nordstrom fix through their website which isn’t as fun as getting to the store at 7am on the first day of their sale. C’est la vie.

So after browsing for much too long, I’ve collected a list of my absolute favorite deals on shoes at their Half Yearly Sale.

We start with Betsey Johnson, of course!

Daisy Shoppe Dresses

Queen Bee — Tue, 13 Sep 2011 15:41:31 +0000

I’m back from all my trips to California and boy did I have fun! My favorite part was definitely my visit to Daisy Shoppe in Southern California. If Betsey Johnson had a little sister, she would be called Daisy Shoppe. They carry Betsey inspired dresses in the $100 – $150 range as opposed to the $300 – $400 range.

Can’t get better than that for Homecoming or Prom!

Gossip Girl Style

Queen Bee — Fri, 02 Sep 2011 04:38:07 +0000

I recently saw a fabulous orange tote carried by Leighton Meester’s character on the Gossip Girl set and instantly fell in love. Citrus from head to toe is difficult to pull off so elegantly, but Leighton definitely succeeds.

Turns out her orange purse is by Riki Rosetta who is set to have a flash sale on her website on Saturday, September 10th in celebration of her very first trunk show. All products, including the orange tote, will be 20% off on her website from 12pm to 6pm so start planning!

If you are interested in attending her trunk show, visit the boutique Deborah Gilbert Smith located at 340 Millburn Avenue in Millburn, NJ on Saturday, September 10th from 12pm to 3pm.

In the mean time, lets drool over her fab collection of purses!

Rachel Zoe for Less

Queen Bee — Mon, 15 Aug 2011 04:01:13 +0000

Rachel Zoe came out with a fabulous fall collection that is very chic and very expensive. Would you expect anything less from Ms. Zoe? Of course not! Lucky for you, I’ve found some similar looks for much much less.

Sorry Rachel, we all can’t afford to spend a couple hundred on a cardigan!

Finds From the Nordstrom Anniversary Sale

Queen Bee — Sat, 16 Jul 2011 04:37:40 +0000

It’s on, ladies! Nordstrom, the king of sales, has way too many finds in their Anniversary Sale to include in a single post. Somehow, I’ve narrowed it down to these few items that go beyond want into the “need” category. My excuse: I could wear them to work (once I finally land a job, that is! Anyone hiring? Here’s my portfolio.)

Hopefully my guy isn’t reading this post so I can go on a shopping spree without getting into trouble!

Preview: Nordstrom Anniversary Sale

Queen Bee — Thu, 07 Jul 2011 04:05:54 +0000

One of the few things I truly miss since my move last month to Boise is Nordstrom. There is no Nordstrom in the WHOLE state of Idaho. I think the closest one is in Oregon. Sigh. But just because I have to miss out on the fun of running into the Nordstrom Anniversary Sale at 7am with elbows thrashing in order to get all the goodies doesn’t mean you have to!

For major sales like this one, you best be prepared. Scope out the layout of the store, check out the sale preview catalog online, and wear comfortable shoes for some serious shopping!

To give you a head start, I’ve highlighted some of my favorite finds in their preview catalog.

You’re welcome!

If you pick anything up at the sale, let me know. I need someone to live vicariously through!
