Financially Chic: Online Shopping

After reading this post you will NEVER pay full price shopping online again!

There's only two things to know about saving while shopping online...

1. Froogle.com - Google's frugal site, research those boots or bag you saw at Macy's by simply typing in the name and style. Froogle.com will bring up the cheapest price and the site to order it from.  I just did this with a pair of Nike Eclipse Sneakers I have been eyeballing. 

2. Retailmenot.com - Coupon code site, you can literally search any coupon for any site. Ordering something from Sephora.com? Well don't checkout until you visit this site, type in Sephora and find a coupon. I do this EVERY time I purchase something online and it works 90% of the time.

Happy online shopping & until next Friday, stay financially chic! xo

The Everyday Pant

ATTENTION Sweatpant Lovers...

I truly understand the comfort of wearing sweatpants, they're cozy, soft, warm, etc.  However I said it once and I'll say it again - SWEATPANTS ARE NOT MEANT TO BE WORN OUTSIDE. Yes, even if it's just a quick trip to the bank or grocery store.  The street is your runway, so own it!

Have no fear, I have found a chic alternative to wearing your old college alumni sweats. It's The Everyday Pant from Stefani Greenfield's line CURATIONS.  They are just as comfortable and have a cleaner silhouette look to them.  These pants come in grey sweater (shown below), black and denim knit.

I would wear these pants to my yoga or pilates class, then rock them on a lazy Saturday running errands. Comfort without sacrificing my style.  You can find The Everyday Pant on HSN.com ($98.90).

Tune in to HSN on Friday for Stefani Greenfield's one-year anniversary!

Tuesday's Trend Report: Leopard

Today's trend report has me seeing spots - literally.  Leopard is showing up all over the place and becoming an every day staple in some people's wardrobe.  It took me awhile to grow appreciation for this print and not reference of Peggy Bundy every time I saw it.

When done right leopard print can add an effortlessly chic look to your ensemble. Or as my friend Schenelle calls, "that pop".  I prefer choosing just one leopard item and pairing it with a staple, classic ensemble.  Others may choose to be more daring by mixing and matching it with other prints as seen on the runways.

I have my eyes set on these leopard wedges from Top Shop. They have enough "pop" but can be toned down with black leggings or 'jeggings' and my chunky knit sweater coat from Urban Outfitters.

Or how about this leopard coat, again from Top Shop. I would rock this with a pair of black, bad-ass ankle boots.

However you choose to rock this trend, have fun with it! Especially leopard print. Paint your lips red and hit the town, you'll leave them seeing spots...
