Day 31 - 2014 - Sleeveless Turtleneck

I don't know why I'm getting rid of this because my dress form wears this very well!  But I've had it a couple years and the tags are still on it so I am letting it go.  This would look really cute a blazer in the winter!

Day 30 - 2014 - Bye bye Loehmann's


Earlier this month Loehmann's announced it's bankruptcy and closing of their stores.  I've shopped at Loehmann's quite a few times and always found great items for good deals!  I worked very close to the East Hanover location at the beginning of my career and I've recently started a new job close to it again.  So I am sad that I will not be able to frequent this store on my lunch breaks although I am going to try and check out what's left before they close for good!  Today I am selling a Parasuco top/dress.  I bought this a couple years ago for a decent price and never got around to wearing it.  I have to admit I never even heard of this brand so I had to Google it just now.

Day 28 - 2014 - All blue everything (almost)







 
One aspect of my fashion sense I got from my Mom is that I have to be matchy matchy.  If I am wearing black shoes then my purse has to be black.  If I'm wearing brown then I need to match the shoes to the bag to whatever else.  So I am always changing my purses!  I have this pretty ugly pair of blue Uggs that the very few times I wore them they were with a blue top...like this top I am trying to sell today.  What a ridiculous outfit I wish I had a full body post.  And I remember my friends making fun of me for this getup.  So today is a double whammy...blue uggs and a blue shirt to match :)

Day 27 - 2014 - Red BCBG



 
 I purchased this dress end of last year for a wedding and never ended up wearing it  It's a really cute dress but just don't need it!  Any takers?

Day 26 - 2014 - Time to redecorate!



 
Over the past several months I've had a couple friends buy new houses and other who redecorated so that gave me the itch.  I bought my house a little over 3 years ago and it was pretty much move-in ready so didn't have to do much painting or even change any of the curtains around the house.  I recently (possibly by accident but maybe not) shrunk my dining room curtains by putting them in the dryer so I had to get new ones.  So I want to start with this room.  If anyone knows me they know I'm all about the bling.  But I don't really think bling belongs in my house anymore.  So these items will be listed on the Facebook garage sale pages soon.

Day 24 - 2014 - Ed Hardy




 
Here's the Ed Hardy I promised.  And a photo of me wearing it on a trip to Florida back in 2008!  That's how long I hoard clothes!  And I must say it's a really ugly shirt.  Just goes to show you what trends do!
 
In other news...I have my orientation meeting tomorrow morning for Dress with Success. Stay tuned for more info!

Day 23 - 2014 - Remember SMET and Ed Hardy?




 
 
Remember when Ed Hardy and SMET were the popular brands to be wearing?  Well I do and I had to have at least one article of clothing with these labels!  Today I am selling a SMET tank top.  I went to www.smetshop.com and it brought me to Ed Hardy's website in which you can't do anything on.  I guess these brands are extinct?  My 1 and only shirt from Ed Hardy will be coming up tomorrow so stay tuned :)

Day 22 - 2014 - Back to basics

 
 I title this back to basics since a cami is the foundation to any outfit...at least for me!  I probably wear a cami everyday under whatever other shirt I am wearing.  I typically only wear black, white or nude but have every other color.  Today I am selling a purple one from NY&C which although doesn't have a tag on it I probably never wore.

Day 21 - 2014 - 2nd pair of Uggs


There is another pair of Uggs sparking conversation on ThreadFlip.  These are many many years old although I've probably only worn them a handful of times.  I don't know about you but I wouldn't buy used Uggs considering most women don't wear them with socks gross!  But there are some people inquiring so I might just get another sale!

Day 20 - 2014 - 1st pair of Uggs listed and My first sale!


 I made my first sale on ThreadFlip woo hoo!  I think I priced them too low though.  There was a trunk sale on the website last night for Boots so I decided to quickly photograph my few pairs of Uggs I want to sell (a couple NIB - new in box).  I listed them quickly and of course went back today to look to see how much I actually paid for them and I paid $155 and am selling for $90 whoops!  I was probably better off keeping them and wearing them but oh well!

Day 19 - 2014 - Gel Manicure Equipment

 
 When I got my first gel manicures I swore off my acrylic nails forever!  I absolutely love gel manicures since they look like a regular manicure but last around 2 weeks.  I used to get my acrylics done every 3-4 weeks but you can't really get away with waiting that long with the gel manicures so I decided that I was going to try and save money and do them myself at home!  What a disaster!  I have hard enough time painting my own nails without the polish getting all over my cuticles I have no idea why I thought this would be easier.  So rather than it sitting around to collect dust I am going to try and sell it. I bought this whole kit on Amazon and separately bought the base/top coat, 4 polish colors, and the prep.  All this retails for around $85.  Anyone want it?

Day 18 - 2014 - Forever 21


Today up for grabs is a dress, NWT, from Forever 21 in beige/nude/off white whatever you want to call it!  Will be listing this one for $10 on ThreadFlip although I haven't seen any action on here yet so might just put everything on eBay for more exposure.

Day 17 - 2014 - I'm slacking


 
So I missed another day sorry!  Blogging everyday is hard!  It wasn't as hard last year since I had to get dressed pretty much everyday so I had to take that photo but this might get challenging for me the further into the year we go.  Today I am selling an unopened perfume set from Victoria's Secret.  It probably was one of those free gift with purchase items so why not try and make money off of it!  It contains six .09 oz perfumes including:
  • Dream Angels Heavenly
  • Very Sexy
  • Victoria's Secret Bombshell
  • Sexy Little Things Noir Tease (my new favorite)
  • Incredible by Victora's Secret
  • Victoria's Secret Pink
Will be posting to ThreadFlip shortly!
