Reviews: Madewell Sale

Lace up flats have been all the rage. I've been wanting to try this trend, but didn't want to spend a lot on such a trendy item. I love the versatility of these shoes! Here are some of my favorite looks (found HERE) - love how they can dress up a casual outfit but can be worn in a work setting as well!

When I was at the mall last week I stumbled upon THESE Inga ace up flats marked down on final sale to $9.99 from $108. I thought someone had mistakenly marked these incorrectly. The sales associate informed me that it was correct, and there was an additional 50% off all sale items. The only pair at the store was size 7, one size too big for me. She called a couple of stores and was able to hunt down the canterbury red color as well as the deep olive color in size 6. She order both for me...I mean at $4.50 a pair, why not?! I ended up purchasing the size 7 for my mom.  So for all 3 pairs, I paid a total of  $13.

Both pairs arrived in the mail after 2 days.

Hello everyone! It was a snowy one in Boston today! We were snowed and worked from home. I'm dreading  the shoveling and drive tomorrow...

Anyways, I'm sharing some recent purchases and major sales!

First off is a gorgeous pair of flats with ankle flats. These have a classic silhouette, but the strap makes them very unique. These are currently available in suede at SAKS for the original price (leather is $100 more), but I stumbled upon these at a local Nordstrom Rack for over 70% off. There is a sparkly version HERE. In case you're interested, these fit true to size, and are very comfortable as they have a light padded foot bed. I cannot wait to take these out when the weather warms up....but there's snow in the forecast all next week =(.

For more weather appropriate accessories. My Sorel winter boots are 50% off, from $145 to only $75 HERE. These are stylish, comfortable, and extremely comfortable. These are my commuting shoes during the wintery months and I have to admit, I've worn them a couple of times in the office when I forgot to bring a change of shoes.  Blanket scarves a must in New England during the winter, and right now, this one is blanket scarf is $29.99.

Can't have enough blanket scarves and hats!
