Few other things from Target




Global Bazarr is your friend :) 75% off also. There was this huge wall hanging/mirror (2nd image) that i have been looking at since it ever went on the shelves. For a long time, Dh and I wanted some kind of burst hanging. Well this one is in the shape of a flower. I was shocked that Dh loved it just as much as i did, i mean what man loves a flower that will hang on the wall. Our bedroom is the only one that hasnt been totally redone. We want this to hang over our bed. Was $99 Now $24


The top mirror, i just could resist either and i have no idea where it will go. We will see what Dh says but i love the material the mirror is made out of. Was $80 Now $20. They also have it in round, now im wondering if i should have gotten round. Its not as yellowish as that picture makes it, its much more white in color.
I also bought a wall hanging that has a tree in it like a shadow box. I have this thing for trees i dont know what it is. Theres no image online for that but it was $8. Then i found a few knick knacks like decorative pieces and other things for my friends shower ;) Enjoy the clearance while its around!

What a steal !!!


Well a few things were a steal today at Target, my fav lol. First of all the lipgloss pictured above. It is scented and i had no idea until I put it on. It smells like peaches. I have been watching this lipgloss forever. It was in a star shaped case and took forever to get marked 75% off. Yes im cheap like that lol. I have tons of lipgloss and if its clearance than im all about adding more to my purse. This stuff is thick and when you first put it on it has a cooling feeling, not tingling at all. This one is super shimmery but then again it is called "sparkle". It is the Neutrogena MoistureShine Lip Soother Cooling Hydragel, wow thats a big breath lol. It has an spf of 20. regular price was around 7.50 and i bought it for $1.52. This is a must buy for sure!

Dining Rm. Table/Kitchen Tables

This one has a leaf.
This one does not have a leaf.



According to my husband, I will never find a table at this rate lol. We went to 4 stores on Saturday & Sunday. I have not found one that i even half like let alone one that i absolutely adore. We looked up one of our furniture stores online which we have not visited and I see one that i would probably "settle" for, but really should I? I know that it is just a table but I told Nick i really wanted to invest in one as opposed to buy a cheap one to replace in a year.




We were anticipating looking at houses this year, but in January decided that we would wait until next year. Since DH is uncomfortable with where the economy is, its the best choice for now and we do love where we live. The ammenities outrank everything else. So keeping that in mind, im trying to find a table with a leaf so it can be much larger in a house, but maybe im being unreasonable.




I really need some outside advice on this. My husband thinks just look for a table that can move into a kitchen. Our Dining Room, Kitchen, LR is all combined right now (apartment living at its best) so we cant have something too large. So my question is should I just give it up on the leaf thing and settle for a table that is just smaller (a 4 person table only) as opposed to looking at one that can expand to 6 people. I get what Nick is saying because if we were to get an official dining room table then what about the hutch and etc? Hes like you will want that stuff later on and it might not be available. I dont know im so confused. What i do know is that Ikea is not on the list for this table at all. I found 2 tables, one that has a leaf and one that doesnt. The one with the leaf im so iffy on and dont absolutely love it. The other one i have loved and continue to love but would have to risk ordering it online, site unseen. Top one has a leaf and is the "iffy" one, the bottom one has no leaf.
If you have any other ideas where i can look, im open to it. Our requirements were dark wood, square or rectangular and the option to have chairs without arms on it.

Cutest shoes!


I actually purchased these like a week but they are the cutest. They are Mossimo Vennie. This picture does them no justice. I purchased them in black. When you look at them straight on they look like the cutest heels but no heel. I like heels and flats so these are great! They were 75% off in store, i see online they are half off. I kept looking at them prior to purchasing then i had to go back and get them. I think paid $8 for them at the store. So cute. The fit seems fine i would even say they are a bit widetowards the top of my foot but thats good for me because i have wide feet :) I went with my normal size and was plenty fine. Ive been busy getting back to classes and etc and im expecting 2 boxes today in the mail so expect some reviews. Have a great Hump day!

E.L.F.

I just placed an order with elf yesterday morning, which if you dont know what that is its www.eyeslipsface.com Mostly everything is $1, they do have a studio and mineral line which is $3-5. When we were out this weekend hunting for E.L.F. sold at the stores and the only thing i could find was the compact and the drama eyeshadow kit.

All i can say is wow! I love the drama eyeshadow. I played with it today and it looks great! My husband was shocked because its the first time i did a real smokey eye and it looked great. Its well worth $1. It does have some fallout but that was an easy fix. I would definately purchase again. Ill review the other items as they arrive. I had done some research prior to my purchase so if you have any questions feel free to ask. Some of the items are great while others are not worth it at all. Have a great Monday!!

Target deals!!!


We went in with the intention or looking for some 8.5x11 plastic inserts for my Mom's recipe book. DH and I walked out with two huge bags of clearance. When I spot 75% off I dont hesitate for one second. I have always wanted to get a coverlet for our room during late spring into summer. This past summer was so warm we always ended up with the comforter on the floor. They had a set that was $80 marked down to $17! I would have preferred a different color but I ended up getting the navy & light blue reversible coverlet set. Most likely we will have the light blue showing most of the time. They also had an orange rust color, it was very fallish and pretty but would not go in our room at all. We also scored some throw pillows for our couch for spring & summer that were orig $16 marked down to $3.87. If you need a mattress cover, any comforters for guest rooms or anything definately check out target. Who would think that a former manager from target would still be shopping there years later!

Surgery presents



Prior to my surgery i decided to treat myself while my parents were visiting. I purchased a coach wristelet at the outlet for 19.99 and i purchased a great bag at kohls and i got an amazing price on it. Its by Daisy Fuentes and it had no tag on it so I quickly called someone and she got a comparable tag and it was only 5.00!!!! Great for that price. I am so excited to use both of them i cant wait to find even more deals.
