Your Book Bag August 20, 2008

Look for great deals when choosing school supplies! First, find a great book bag:

Eastsport Sport Backpack, $15.

Eastsport Mesh Backpack, $10.

Eastsport Floral Backpack, $15.

Next, find some awesome binders:

Carolina Pad, $6.

Avery Easy Access Binder, $4.

ACCO Presstex Coated Round 3-Ring Binder, $3.

Take a look at your binders. Are they patterened? Put your name on the inside cover with matching colors. Plain fronts? Decorate them with Sharpies, stickers, colored duct tape, etc. Do they have a plastic cover? Decorate a piece of paper and slide it in!

Then find a nice pencil pouch or case:

Staples Pencil Pouch, $2.

Soho Basic Pencil Case- Small, $4.

Slider Pencil Case, $0.79.

Put all your pens and pencils in your new pencil pouch, fill your binders with paper, put it all in your book bag, and head for school!

Clearanced Cinch Tee July 15, 2008

Walart has a nice, comfortable cinch tee in fuschia. They also have it available in black and purple. Being clearanced, it is most likely discontinued, which means there will be limited availability. It used to be ten dollars, but it is now only seven dollars:

Summer Essentials, Part 1: Bikinis and Tankinis June 9, 2008

Swim season is a nightmare for some of us. We’re not comfortable with our bodies, we don’t know where to get a cute swimsuit, we don’t want to spend much on one… the list goes on.

My suggestion: either find one swimsuit you really love and splurge, or get a basic, solid-colored bottom and various cheap tops with similar silouhettes and size to avoid tan-line fiascos.

Some of my faves:

 

 

Key: Swimsuits not shown on models available at Walmart. Swimsuits shown on models with gray backgrounds available at Kohl’s. Other swimsuits available at Delia’s.

Cute Cami! May 26, 2008

So, I was browsing Walmart, and I came upon this cute cami in juniors:

I adore the little lacy flowers along the straps and neckline, and the print is cute and summery.

Best of all, it’s only $11.72 at Walmart.
