Hmm, this isn't really design related, but I think it's very important if you like the "designer" elite clothing lines.

Now, I do like them but can never buy from them unless I get the throw away items which make it to Rugged Wearhouse. That's fine with me, but even their clothes are going up in price with our evil slumping economy.

So I just found out a trick and I'm going to share it with you.

If you go to amazon.com and type (Closeout Item) in the search field, specifying "apparel" as the product type...you'll find amazing deals. Like Banana Republic shirts for under $15!

Or this Gloria Vanderbilt Tank for only $20!!

Happy bargain shopping!

    The creators of Tobi are smart cookies. And they are clearly in my head somewhere, because I am nearly 80% an online shopper. Window shopping is more like window browsing courtesy of Firefox and adding things to my cart happens with one click. Many times I end up closing the entire window without checking out, because well, I can get click crazy. Haha.

    "Inspired by Tobi, the first customer to walk through the doors of Azalea, founders Catherine and Corina built Tobi on the belief that the in-store boutique experience—genuine customer relationships, fun shopping with friends, 1-1 care and honest advice, unique merchandising, engaging presentation—can not only be delivered to the Internet, but even further enhanced, improved and revolutionized."

    Tobi takes things one step further than any other place you have shopped before. They have a personalized style service. Whether you are in need of a total wardrobe makeover or just a specific item like velvet apparel, their stylists will ensure you look your best. They take into consideration your lifestyle, body type, personality and budget.

    For the colder season ahead they have velvet clothing to keep you snuggled. Velvet clothes seem to hold heat in very well, while also being smooth against skin that might dry out in the winter.

    Oh and before you leave their site, make sure to check out EcoTobi for all of their eco-friendly brands.

    My God daughter is a two-year-old diva ballerina. It's true. She takes ballet classes and participates in parades. You'd think she would be too young to know what it means to take dance lessons, but she actually remembers everything she is taught so it's pretty cool.

    Anyway, there is this website called "Just For Kix" and they have dance leotards for children that are not only adorable but also well priced...this is key. =o) Plus you know you're getting good quality items from them because they sell brands like Capezio, Mirella, and The Exclusive Alexandra Collection.

    So I am always looking for new sites for my cousin to buy things for Belle, because I know she'll keep dancing for years to come. They don't just have leotards and tights and such, they also have dance t-shirts, shoes, bags and even gift items for your favorite dancing queen. Even dance CD's and DVD's, dance jewelry, dance streamers, and makeup and hair items for dance rehearsals. Man that's a mouth full.

    Dance like no one's watching, but just in case they are...make sure you shop at "Just For Kix."

    One of my favorite online clothing stores is BabygirlBoutique.Com. They h ave bohemian clothing, rockabilly clothing and vintage styles. I don't know where they find all these clothes to sell, but I have got to get in on their secrets.

    Not that I have any free money right now, but if I did...this is what I would get. A medium Dr. Seuss Tee - "Prosciutto e Uova Verdi" (Green Eggs & Ham) Tee Shirt with Inside Screen Print by Doe.

    It is just too perfect!

    It's the 4th of July and you know all of your favorite fashion stores are going to be having huge summer time sales. The easiest way to keep track of sales and specials is to use online coupons from Coupon Chief.

    It's more than just coupons, so don't feel like you are being cheap. Every online special, every online secret sale code, all those sales you can't keep up with, they are on Coupon Chief ready and organized for you. From Dell.com to the Gap to even department stores like Kohl's so whatever your trend might be you will be able to use this site to get a great deal and still look like you spent some cash.

    I love ESPRIT and they just recently re-opened their online shop. And thanks to Coupon Chief, I know that I can get 20% off my order with this promotional code: CPK354L. How easy is that and I didn't have to go surfing around!? I'll be stocking up tonight and not feeling guilty, everyone will love the trendy finds from ESPRIT and I'll leave out the fact that I got a discount thanks to Coupon Chief. =o) Sssh. Don't tell.

    This onesie is cracking me up. Braeden so should have had one when he was a baby. The sizes range from 0-3 months up to 18 months. It's so perfect for parents who are avid bloggers like myself. Especially if you have a blog that talks about your family. I love it!

    You can buy this at Etsy.com on the store front for Rainbowswirlz. Mendy and James are an engaged couple who run Rainbowswirlz, they are both obsessed with crafty things and therefore have made a business around it. They are awfully clever and their prices are extremely reasonable.

    I think this is a cool idea.

    It's a cute shirt for starters, but it's also a friendly self-reminder.

    When you look at your reflection you'll see the message "Smile Big."

    Plus, the shirt is 100% so you know it's comfy. =o)

    And a little something else for you today. E-Cards. Because I love E-cards. Normally I use Hallmark's e-cards because most of them are free and the sentiments are nice. But these E-cards are funny and super sarcastic which is right up my alley.

    Their tag line says "When you care enough to hit send." Lol. These remind me of cards we saw at the Art Star show and Lauren loved them. So I think she'll like this site. It's just too funny.

    Um, so, I love funky t-shirts. In addition to my many, many Tinkerbell t-shirts, I also have other witty and/or sarcastic shirts going on. Haha.

    Thanks to sites like SackWear, it's really quite easy for me to be wearing something that thoroughly amuses me.



    Cracks me up! Hahahaha, seriously, check out the site, these t-shirts are too funny!

    This online shopping experience was so fun for me! I found such cute t-shirts, so many in fact that I couldn't keep looking through them for fear that I'd have an act of manic impulsive buying. But I did buy a shirt for Braeden. It's a phone booth and if you look inside, you see the silouhette of E.T. on the phone. How cute! For yourself or your toddlers or your friends, I think you'll enjoy perusing the shirts at Threadless. Go ahead and click their logo to go shopping!
