Jones Coats

Jones New York wants me to be warm for the Holidays- How nice! I can now afford to buy a new coat from them seeing as some of their great coats are down to nearly 1/3 of the price they were before. They also are having great sales on professional wear, but I am not going to be overly optimistic about my job prospects right now seeing as people with degrees are having a tough time.

<3 Warm and Toasty :)

College Glasses

Bonus Discount Sale at Boscovs.com!

This is my recommendation as a college student. We have frequent needs for fancy glassware (allright maybe not fancy.. but you know what I mean)
Anyway, I found these simple wine glasses here and am thinking of buying them for a friend whose birthday is next Thursday. Its really a present for all of us ;)

Actually, if you want to save on shipping, you might want to try Buy.com (which is what I am doing right now...

SHoes

One week sale! Sunday to Sunday, 11/8-11/15 offer! Steve Madden Footwear - $34.95 Women's All Styles This Week!

6pm is insanely cheap, but they have good quality stuff and a lot of markdowns. I just bought 4 pairs of name brand shoes for under $100!!!
In other news, I have been wanting to wear my Uggs over here on the east coast, but apparently people are saying they are practically crocs. I hate crocs and I don't really want to wear something compared to them, but really? Uggs keep my feet warm and they really don't look bad. Crocs are icky and don't make any sense unless you are fishing for tadpoles in a stream.
<3 Had to rant.

The Thought

Click here for high quality personalized children's books
My niece's Birthday is coming up and I made her a personalized children's book. Wow am I the best aunt ever. (she's 3)
These are really cute and now that I am in college and practically packed away my entire room before I left, I am much more nostalgic than I used to be. Those stuffed animals are great when you buy them, but they don't mean as much when you have them heaped everywhere and have to stuff them in boxes. The personalized things that have memories are the best tokens of childhood. For instance, my best friend made me a scrapbook when I moved away. It is pretty amateurish, but I cherish it. Anyway, that's just my opinion on gift ideas for little kids. (plus, kids are self centered and they love anything with their face on it)

Purses

This gets updated everyday so I just thought I would put one up. I have a very lovely friend who told me I need a new bag. Little does she know that I use my current one to take a ton of bananas back to my room from the dining hall. My latest late night snack obsession has been bananas and peanut butter, but cmon- that has to be better than Reeses Peanut butter cups right? Its funny because I just started liking peanut butter again. It used to be that the smell was horrible to me. And I always hated people's peanut butter breath. ick
okay, way off topic here. Purses was the topic. Portero is all about Louis Vuitton right now. These are not the kind that I can use to steal bananas with, but they are gorgeous. Its always good to have a food purse and a nice purse (and maybe a purse to hold your id that you don't mind getting beer on)
This is a Salvatore Ferragamo Black Suede Evening Shoulder Bag Clutch:

These are still pretty expensive, even with the markdown, but like I said they aren't for carrying bananas and anyone can rock a purse.

Steve Madden Shoes

Tueday,10/20 Offer! Steve Madden Footwear- 65% off Today Only!

I feel like I have been coming back to them a lot recently which is good markteing part on their part, but they send me emails with updates like this so: what are you gonna do? Steve Madden Shoes at 65% off is something that I put up with endless sorts of spam from any website.

Gives you something to look forward to on our rainy Tuesday, no?

Hamlet and Homecoming

Its Homecoming weekend so everyone is breaking out the customized T-shirts. Sadly, they aren't all that fabulous...
I went to see Jude Law's Hamlet on Broadway the other night. It was very long, but the effects were great. Hamlet was never really my favorite, but Jude Law definitely kept him full of action instead of just soliloquy. Sadly, this was at the expense of the other characters who were blander than white rice. All in All it was worth seeing though.
I hope I can say the same for the Homecoming football game, although the weather certainly isn't going to make it easy...
