My New Favorite Ankle Zip Skinny Jeans!!!!! (under$30)

16 Oct

Hi loves……quite a few of you have inquired about my black skinny jeans with ankle zippers that I’ve been wearing lately ( for 4 days straight actually).  I’m here to tell you that they are AFFORDABLE!!!!!! and they fit amazing! For those of you that haven’t seen them, they are the blackest black and have a great silver zippered ankle detail.  They are super stretchy and maintain their shape throughout an entire night of walking and dancing might I add!  They are priced at a very reasonable $29.99 and are available at Target!  I always shop for clothes at Target, and last Friday these cute pants caught my eye….. Once I made sure they were free of logos (I love plain jeans, even my favorite designer jeans are J brand because they are logo free), I thought I try them on.  They fit like a glove, are comfortable and so cute.  All of you should run to target and pick some up or order HERE.  They are also perfectly skinny enough to tuck into all your Fall/Winter boots!

Don’t be fooled by the sneakers paired with the pants in these pictures. They can be really dressed up with heels, I promise!  Focus on the FIT of the pants!

Look For Less!!!! Valentino Rockstud Heels!

22 Aug

Hello hello! I’m here with a VERY exciting look for less!!!!! I have found a pair of heels that look almost identical to the fuchsia Valentino Rockstud pumps!  A little birdie named Emily who writes The Sweetest Thing turned me on to these pretty pumps!  I saw them on her and assumed they were Valentino Rockstuds because quite frankly-they looked just like them……turns out they are from Torrid- the store for full-figured fashionistas!  I didn’t even know they sold shoes!  After finding out the scoop on these, I quickly checked online only to find that had size 10 and Up:(  So I called my local Torrid store and they had more sizes!!!!!!!!!   I just had to share this with you all!!!!! Good luck finding your own pair!

Valentino Rock stud heels $945 available at Saks.  They come in a high or a low height!

Pink studded pump $44.50!!!!!!!!! and right now they ARE ON SALE FOR ONLY  $22.48!!!!!!!!  I mean…..it doesn’t get any better than that!   Whether you would never spend a thousand bucks on heels or  totally would and just want to test out the studded Torrid heels to see if you may want the Valentino’s later, these shoes are for you!!!!!

The Torrid version is a shorter heel but at this price who the heck cares!???!!!!! and furthermore, even if  I only get 3 wears out of these bad boys, that’s good enough for me!!!!

Torrid

 

 

P.S. while I was at Torrid, I noticed they had the cutest bracelets although they were way too big for my wrist, but SPREAD the word to your full-figured friends, if they have a hard time finding bracelets that actually fit, they need to try Torrid!
