Beyond Boxing Day
Sale! Sale! Sale! ‘Tis music to the ears, whether you didn’t get your holiday shopping done on time or you’ve got gift certificates or checks from grandma burning a hole in your new wallet.
Online merchants like Urban Outfitters, Anthropologie, Crate & Barrel, Forever 21, Target, Pottery Barn, even overseas Topshop (which is now shipping stateside!) are throwing screamin’ deals our way … and we’re shouting it from the rooftops.
Some favorite pieces and prices include a knee-length jacket for $19.99 (reg. $39.80) from Forever 21, city-chic cowboy boots for $199 (reg. $285), a cool geometric-patterned tufted-wool rug from Anthropologie for $29.95 (reg. $78), a too-cute embroidered owl pillow from West Elm for $9.99 (reg. $19), a mod plate from Crate & Barrel for $2.95 (reg. $4.95), a voluminous mustard jacket from Topshop for £12 (reg. £25), a tuxedo-ruffled shirtdress from Target for $24.49 (reg. $34.99), and a pretty art deco mirror for $99 (reg. $129).
Three cheers for after-holiday savings!

I own some of those mod plates from C & B, and they are so much fun. I also own the coordinating bowls and sauce cups, which have a fun black and white floral print on them. They are all on sale right now…I know this because I immediately bought more as soon as I saw they were marked down. I do not, however, own that sweet art deco mirror, but have a feeling I may very soon. Hooray for some deals, after all that expensive Christmas shopping!

Ok…the sales are still going, going, good. I spent the weekend shopping in suburbia and found the most unbelieveable deals. Old Navy has puffer coats for 16 dollars. 16! They also have the most most most adorable black and white magnets in letters of the alphabet. Each letter has a different print on it, and they are so sweet. They are on sale for $1 each. Just think…you could have the entire alphabet for $25…well, almost $25.
