Okay, no, I can’t actually do that. But I can (and, more importantly, DID) comb through the fashion mags to find cute, inexpensive clothes for the fall. Here are a few of the things I want to wear – just as soon as it stops being 90 degrees with a 70% dewpoint in Minnesota.
The faux-leather, ruffled moto jacket from Dots.com (can’t get a picture for you, sorry!). It’s not available at stores quite yet, which is fine, as it’s not jacket weather quite yet. But I’ll be snatching one up from the Har Mar Mall Dots store when they arrive. So much cute for so little money.
For a bit of shiny, for under $15, I want this from Kmart (yes, I just said Kmart. Deal with it):
The only flaw in this fun top is the sequins are only on the front, and do not cover the entire tank. But for $11.24 – on sale until September 4th – I’ll deal with it. Kmart also has some trendy, military-styled jackets coming out, but they aren’t in stores yet. Check online for availability before you hit the Mart.
You know how I love my shoes, and now I found yet another online shoe shop to browse in mydown time. Best of all, they have decent prices and free shipping if you spend $35 or more. The name isn’t the best, Shiek Shoes.com, but I do appreciate a lame pun. I also appreciate these boots:
For $39.97, they do fit my Shopping May-hem Boot Caveat (I can spend $100 or less on one new pair of boots this year, as I didn’t buy a pair last year.). Let’s see if they go on sale, shall we? And if they do, they’ll look perfect over the Mossimo jeggings (yes, I said jeggings. Deal with it.) I bought for $25 exact at Target.
What thrifty fashions do you want for fall?

I’d love to find a new Fall trenchcoat. I tried on a nice black Mossimo trenchcoat at Saver’s, but it looked like I was wearing a tent from Gander Mountain (and it was my size). Too bad, because it was a mere $5 — part of the half off of whatever color featured that week. Oh well. That’s how it goes when shopping second-hand. Keeping my eye out elsewhere, of course.
I want thrifty cozy fashions that are still classy,
I want good shoes for less than $100 that keep the muck out,
and I want cheap ways to wear prints near my face to cheer up my darkening wardrobe! Is that too much to ask?
Just make sure you sign up for Dots’ e-newsletter! They email out coupons VERY regularly. I have never shopped there without a coupon, after my first visit!
