I mostly shop online because I am lame rofl

Buuuuuut I own the most things from: Custo Barcelona, BCBG, Victoria's Secret, French Connection, & random/original boutiques I find.
& I afford these things through serious bargain hunting. YEAH BARGAINS 8D
I love outlets. Also I get a lot of barely-secondhand things for free from a friend/pseudo-aunt who owns a high-end boutique & goes through clothes like water.

Tax free week isn't a big deal for me? Idk. I guess I'll get some new pens & notebooks. ;x

LMAO.

i am scared to go on ebay. things can be warped and like.. idk. people are so shady!!!

plus i might get fake stuff 8(

Posted: Sun Aug 03, 2008 10:14 pm

the fake stuff is so awesomely cheap 8]

Mostly I look for things from China. Which sounds kind of crazy, but people get paid zerooooo there & I guess sometimes they "borrow" things from work to sell because you can find a whole bunch of stuff for super cheap. Like Vivienne Westwood~ :'D

I've never had any shady deals there. You just have to be careful about people's ratings... but then again, there are always first-time sellers who don't have ratings yet. Idk maybe I am too trusting of the internet gonk

I try to make lists of things I want so I can stop myself from buying random stuff I don't need. I did pretty well this summer though DESPITE NOT HAVING ANY INCOME (AKA I make mommy go with me / buy me stuff)
but I still want...
a big ivory cardigan and/or ivory summer scarf even though summer is almost over
black flats that I can wear with tights. THIS IS SO MUCH HARDER THAN I THOUGHT IT WOULD BE. I HAVE BEEN LOOKING FOR MONTHS.
a medium-sized unstructured dark gray purse

making lists like this makes it easier because I know exactly what I want...but then it's hard to find the exact thing :C

i went shopping today cool there are bunches of shopping places real close to me that buy clothes and sell them for hellishly cheap (like reallygood $10 jeans) so i kind of went crazy buying everything.
they were selling like a buttload of abercrombie hoodies for only $14.99 LOL but i didnt get any because i dont understand the point of putting so many hoodies on clearance during the summer...? but they had cheap jeans of theirs too which i grabbed because their jeans are nice :>

i've been looking for a lot of nice button-ups and polos but all the ones i've been finding are so ugly, or oversized, lol... and i want to find some nice leggings to wear with my skirts but no one sells those either i'm sad :[ but i think i did pretty well

ummmmmmmm Urban Outfitters is like. king of leggings
idk about button-ups & polos though. The nice ones are all really expensive! I had to wear them all through high school-- hollister is okay? but I caved & bought Banana Republic button-ups. so pretty~~
