Boots by sponsormetarget


Have you heard? The new trend? "Recessionistas" - and guess where they want to shop? My Target!!! At first I was upset - how can all the fancy shmancy ladies start walking around with my bags and shoes? They are exclusive! ... To people like us who know what you can find at Target. But then, I realized. Welcome. Come one, come all. The secret is out. A bag for $39.99 can look just as hot as one with four extra zeros. And we all need to save as many zeros as we can score right now.

Today's find is this cute boot. I somehow never have rain/snow boots. My kid are always all set and I step out in sneakers and get all soggy. Not this year. I found a bunch of boots and selected these because they actually have a heel. At 5 feet tall I value a heel on every shoe - plus these will work fine for business meetings too- under a pair of black pants they look pretty nice. Could have used these when I walked through Wall Street on a rainy morning a few weeks ago. Could have used a magic wand that day too.

And if you are feeling like you want to be a recessionista - follow this blog as well as the recessionista blog on my blog roll.

Tank and Top

Vneck by sponsormetarget

V-necks are everywhere and I stumbled upon these. Loved this cranberry colored one so much I went back for the basic black I knew I'd wear incessantly.

But even better I think are these camis - I WISH I had bought a bunch of them. Here is why it rocks. 1. It is fitted. I hate tanks that bunch under clothes - these are perfect. They also are high enough to help- very low cut tanks don't do me any good - I wear them usually because I am trying to deal with the fact that most shirts are cut way too low.

Both of these are great finds. Run out and get 'em!
