Word of the Week: S-A-L-E

The economy has hit most all of us in some way – if not directly, indirectly. So now more than ever the most-beloved four-letter word S-A-L-E has become even more beloved, ahhh. There’s nothing like seeing that slash through the “original price” or the words “percent off” next to a super-cute boho tunic or pair of patent stiletto heels. Every Monday, I get my Salemail from ShopItToMe.com. It’s my own personal shopper that lets me know each week what’s on sale at my favorite online stores and from my favorite labels, like BananaRepublic.com, JCrew.com, Marc by Marc Jacobs and more!

So I’ve been trying to plan a holiday party outfit for weeks now, and got to thinking. Why not build my budget-friendly outfit all from my Salemail? Here’s what I found (keep in mind these are designers that typically sell for much, much more):

A black pascale dolman-sleeve dress by Ella Moss from ShopBop.com, $92

A ladylike Merino Wool Jacinda jacket from JCrew.com (in a beautiful Honey Glaze hue), $99.99

An open-toe black Mary Jane pump (with chic dotted perforation details) from BananaRepublic.com, $79.99

A stunning pair of studded gold earrings also from BananaRepublic.com, $19.99

How’s that for shopping all in one place and all on S-A-L-E? I saved over $100 just by shopping my Salemail (squealing with my hands in the air!).

Now, all I have to do is wait for my stuff to arrive in the mail (which I will track online every day!) and head to my party!
