The best deal ever!
A wedding present from my auntie!

I'm excited to shop for rain boots and more winter clothing!

Oh yeah! thanks for the blog awards, Caro Cassie and Vida
I pass both these awards to:

I adore her creativity. :)

She does wonderful make up!

She's one of the most spontaneous people on blogger!

The queen of giveaways! She's a sweetheart!

I'd like to add more but I can't think of anyone else at the moment.
I need some shut eye for now.
Have a great week ahead, everyone!

  9. oh, I love your blog! full of inspirations and I have to tell you that.. you live in a place where I would like to live so much! I mean, California is amazing :) Maybe just because I've seen all of the "Laguna Beach" episodes on Mtv and "The Hills" too, but I don't know.. I'm so jealous! :) Maybe you have a Facebook account and you would like to contact me and tell me a lil bit more about USA and CA :) that would be really nice :)
    lots of love!

  11. @Olya That's wonderful! I like their accessories the most! Some of their clothing is too 80's for me though.

    @TrendRebajas Gutentag! I love shopping too! I'm trying to keep away from it! Danke sehr! Hallo from California! :)

    Katrya Karla Thanks for taking the time to comment on my post!

    @sabina You're welcome and thank you! :)

    @JUSTYNA AWW! That's so sweet of you to say. I really enjoyed your page. It's the most unique one I've seen so far. I live an hour from Laguna Beach. I'm in the Valley. I do have a FB account! Feel free to add me on there. :)

    ReplyDelete
  14. you got soo many great deals!! all these things are awesome :D

    ReplyDelete
  15. I envy your finds! I also envy the fact that you are small enough to shop at places that don't ever carry "big girl" clothes. Sigh...

    And congrats on the blog awards!!! They are always super fun and super ego boosting. :D

    ReplyDelete
  16. @Pop Champagne Thank you! :)

    @Christina in Wonderland AWW! Thanks! I have wide hips so it's difficult for me to find bottoms. I think I'm a size 6 here in the States.

    Thanks so much! :) There are stores that cater to big girls. Torrid is a great one. :)

  22. Black Friday, yay! You found some great finds. I have a terrible time at H&H, I'm too tall and busty for most of their clothes, but I do like their prices. How's married life?

    ReplyDelete

  24. @MissK Thank you! I'm a sucker for polka dots! :)

    @Taj Thanks! :)

    @Vintage and Cake Thank you! I only had a civil wedding so I didn't go on a break. We went to Vegas prior to the wedding so that's enough. We got to work! :) H$M is awesome!

    @Novie Thanks! I think I'll wear it with leggings. :)

    @Rinz You can go to The Northridge or Topanga mall! :)

    @Miranda Thank you!

    @myraysofsunshine I can't wait for Black Friday! I'm going to get up at 4am! lol. Really? I wish I was busty! :)) Married life is going well for me. We did live together before the marriage so this is just a formality. :)

  33. @Plum Thank you! I shop at other places too but I don't like buying things that aren't on sale because it gets me stoic whenever they do go on sale. :))

    @Caro Thank you! ;)

    @Colette Thank you! I'll take a gander soon!

    @Raven But of course! Honey, with over 17,00o views, people do read your blog. :P Thanks for following!

    @Jing You're welcome! I'll read your updates once you have some. I wanted to work for the Peace Corps for a while or UNICEF. It seriously roused my interest. :)

    @Wunmi W-A Thank you! I saw the ring. It's rather cute.

    @Kasandra Nichole Thanks! I like them a lot!

    @Catita Thank you! I like polkadots so much! The boots do make my feet all warm and fuzzy. :)

  34. congrats on the award :) you got crazy bargains! love all the stuff you bought!

    ReplyDelete
  35. Wow, totally awesome finds! I absolutely love the scarf, red dress and fur lined boots you got (boots as a wedding gift?! now that a proper present if you ask me!)

    For some reason I never get anything decent in the sales. Maybe I'm just too lazy and dont put enough time and effort into actually looking for stuff. Hmmm, basically all I really need a personal shopper who'll work for free... :)

    ReplyDelete
  36. you got so many awesome stuff and for such an awesome price! love the boots :)

  37. @All Made Up Thank you! The scarf happens to be my favorite find! The boots are from my aunt. I was so happy when it fit me because my calves are so chunky! :))

    Well, it took me a while to look for those items. You should have seen my husband's face! lol. Maybe you should get one! :))

    @Diana I know, eh? I love bargains! <3 Thank you!

  44. Hey Toni! How are you? Thanks for the comment, haha yeah I have a bunch of crap in my makeup bag cuz I live far from my work and 90% of the time my friends wanna go to a nice dinner and a bar after work so I am always scrambling to go from daytime natural look to something a little fresh or a pop of color, but luckily it's not weighing my bag down! LOL. I love your post on you and your husband, congrats! I am engaged myself and we are aiming to get married next year but what a crazy process! Hope all is well with you!
