Hi I am Jenny and this is my chic blog! I constantly have my nose buried in a fashion magazine or am online browsing the latest trends. This blog is for all those fashionistas, like me, who are natural born bargain hunters and instantaneously reach for their cute T.J. Maxx purse when they hear the word "sale." There is nothing worse, though, than falling in love with a dress in a magazine that is supposed to be "a steal" and seeing the price read $500. Who has that kind of money to spend on a dress? That’s where this blog comes in! This blog will update you on the latest trends and styles, but at prices "normal" people can afford!

What not to Wear... Barbie Style

While sitting down with my little cousin yesterday I asked her what Santa brought her for Christmas this year. She responded by saying "some new Barbie clothes" and then dashed into the other room to grab her bag full of the mini styles. As she emptied the ziplock bag I soon became aware of how far Barbie's clothes had come. I mean we are talking "diamond" encrusted stilettos here people! I of course immediately started dressing the Barbies and combing their platinum blond hair. While reliving my childhood memories with my cousin I decided that a Barbie photo shoot was in order. One of the Barbies below is wearing a what we like to call "what not to wear" outfit and the other is rather stylish. I hope these pics help in your future fashion endeavors!


 
This is the "what not to wear" look.
We have a "bumped" Snooki hairstyle, hot pink go-go boots with tights, and an uber scandalous romper. Barbie is stuck in her 80's workout attire and it should have never left the gym.

Here is Barbie's transformation look!
Barbie is wearing a glamorous purple mini halter dress. Still a little revealing, but I mean it's Barbie... when ya got it flaunt it! Then we have a little faux fur wrap and some chic wedges. The hair down and with bangs frames her face nicely and the sparkly bangle is a nice touch!

Here is a close up on the sparkly wedges... they need to make these in my size!

And this one is just for giggles... take a look at the dinosaur background and Barbie's 
fraternal twin Peggy!

Got some new gift cards from Christmas or need to return an item? Now is the time! There are so many great sales going on right now to get rid of merchandise. Many discount events are also happening now! I love Sephora, but I usually just go to the store to look at the fun and colorful make-up and never end up buying anything. The prices are a little expensive. Right now, though, they are have a clearance sale and everything that on sale is an additional 20% off!
Check out the sale, and buy some new make-up to start the New Year off right!

Last Minute Holiday Shopping!

Are you coming down to the wire and still don't have a gift to give Aunt Sally tomorrow at the family gift exchange? Have you already been to the mall 5 times this week and can't stand the idea of running out again for a last minute gift? Did you want to get something for your Grandma who lives in another state, but ran out of time to buy and ship an item? Why not send a email gift card!?! Gift cards for countless stores and restaurants can be sent via email, and all the receiver has to do is print out the certificate. A family member or friend can get the gift instantly and right on Christmas day. If you don't want to come to a family gathering empty handed, just print out the certificate yourself and place it in a card. If you want to give a gift but don't have money make your own certificates that can entitle the receiver to "A Free Backrub," "One House Cleaning," and "Coffee on Me."Good luck with all last minute shopping! Hope this tip helps!
Here is a site that has egift cards!

I like this new "Scribble" style that has hit the scene!

This new style gives plain t-shirts and canvas totes a hint of glam! It looks as if someone doodled on the item. It's cute, fresh, eye-catching, and doesn't look overdone! Love it!
