Shop Like a Hawk

It has been about six weeks since I went on a clothing shopping spree. I like to get the lowest price I can, so I watch  like a hawk  --it's an art...wait too long and your size is gone....buy too early and you pay too much... when I feel the price is right,  I swoop down and snatch  up my prey!


Sunday I swooped from my early-morning perch and all of these fell prey:
I own two or three of these already. They are shirts I like, so I bought a second color. Most of these I will wear opened with a tee. The first brown shirt is extremely sheer (I own a rust-color and love it). You have to wear a shirt under it; I will probably wear orange to add some pizazz to blah brown. That black/white checked shirt will perk right up with a  summer white tee and some fun jewelry.  I like 3/4 length sleeves for work because of the air conditioning.

DH will probably have a little snit when he realizes I bought clothes again. Oh, well, he knows it's clothe me or retire me from the work force. He always chooses the clothing. :)

  1. Zoey...You made some excellent choices. I got a $15 reward from Appleseeds and was online buying things in their outlet. The prices were unbelievable. I love a bargain too. Balisha

  2. Balisha,
    $15 reward is good. I would certainly use that right up!

    Deb, I thought I did pretty good...not my best...but I have to work with the rising prices

  3. Sweet tops! They say brown is the new black, so any color looks good with it. I even like black and brown together. I also like 3/4 length sleeves as the long ones are always too long.
    I love to go through the racks at Kohls and Macys (in particular) at the end of the season when they are 70-80% off. I'm not a perfect one size so sometimes I can wear the smaller size.

  4. I love the look of the Coldwater Creek catalog, but the clothes come and they NEVER fit! I am nearly 6' tall and none of those blouses would come to the top of my pant waist! So good for you, Zoey, to be so patient!
