Haul Yeah: Wet Seal

Wet Seal is a store that knows how to have a good sale!
I'm always able to update my wardrobe without having to spend a fortune. Just recently Wet Seal had a 50% off sale. I didn't need anything but you better know that didn't stop me from buying!
Since it's the holidays I thought I would glam it up with color. I started with gravitating toward the olive colored skirt. Instead of doing black I decided to go with a different color. This mustard colored shirt just jumped out at me. I plan on wearing it with the skirt big it will work with other things like leggings due to its length!
I had a one time use free shipping code that took care of shipping but Wet Seal frequently has sales that include free shipping. Now all I have to do is figure out jewelry and shoes.
Any suggestions? Did you purchase anything from the sale?

Sephora VIB Sale 2015
So as you know from my previous post I shopped the Sephora VIB sale. I wasn't able to shop all four days because I made an order that took me to VIB rouge during the sale. Since Sephora stopped rouge members from shopping this sale that meant once I hit rouge my code wouldn't work any more.
Before that happened I managed to get two orders in.
As you can see I got a big box full of goodies!!! A few things are gifts but most of it is for me!
Based on what I ordered, if there's anything you would like a review or swatch of please let me know.
What did you purchase from the sale?

Sephora Haul
I can't believe that I've spent so much at sephorah that I was only a few dollars away from VIB Rouge status. Die hard makeup/skin care lovers know how much you have to spend to get to that level!
The VIB sale that gives you 20% off is going on from the 13-16 and I had to purchase! A few things will be Christmas gifts but many are for me!
I have never spent so much at once so the amount kind of got to me but I still pressed the "checkout" button! The only thing is I can't make another order and use the code because I hit rouge status and their time to shop was last week. That sucks but maybe it's a good thing!!
Have you purchased anything from the sale or started your Christmas shopping yet?

A Clutch-ing Good Time
I've been badgering the instagram page of coolgalblue for a couple of days. Every since I saw all of the amazing goodies on the site, I didn't think I needed anything else but I was wrong!
I saw a post of a oversized clutch that I fell in love with. Too bad it was sold out. But the good social media person on Instagram informed me of a few in stock. I jumped on it!!
I thought it was adorable and different and perfect for me! On sale for $29.99, free shipping and no tax means this baby is coming home to mama!
Have you ordered anything from coolgalblue.com?

Haul Yeah: Cool Gal
If it weren't for instagram I wouldn't spend so much money! Lol.
I came across the site called coolgalblue from blogger Jessica Kane. They sell clothing and accessories for sizes 12-32. Since I'm usually an 18/20, I decided to give it a go.
I picked up enough items to give an honest opinion of fit and quality. Right now you can get $100 off of a $200 purchase and free USA shipping. There was no tax charged either. I ended up spending $116 after the $100 was deducted.
For those of you considering purchasing I will leave the coupon code for last. Please let me know what you ordered and your shopping experience with the company!!!

Fashion To Figure
I've been hearing some good things about plus size retailer Fashion To Figure. The only reason I hadn't ordered sooner is because there is no store in my state! I do hope they open more stores. I am a follow of the brand on Instagram and I saw that they were having a 40% sale off of regular price merchandise and 50% off clearance. I decided that now was a better time than any to give them a try.
Stripe it chic in our latest one-piece: the Adelaide jumpsuit. A sleek and sexy design, this one-and-done stunner features a plunging v-neck, solid bottoms and tapered ankle for the ultimate on-trend look. Sleeveless, concealed back zip closure.
I decided to go with this jumpsuit because it was just too cute to pass up! I thought the front of the suit was just the right amount of sexy to take you from evening into the night. I also thought it was effortlessly chic. With something like this in your wardrobe, you can look good without even trying!
The Indra scuba bodysuit is a sexy single with edge to spare--long mesh sleeves and a sheer mesh yoke make this design a must for the party circuit. Style with everything from high-waist skirts to distressed jeans. Round neck, long sleeves, pull-on style.
It was love at first sight with this body suit. I have some cute ideas for this one. I hope it fits because I really hate retuning things! I haven't decided about the bra situation. Believe or not I don't have an all white bra! I was thinking of just buying some nipple covers and wearing it without a bra but we will see about that once I'm able to try it on.
Sheer, striped and fit to flaunt, the Wysteria pencil skirt is equal parts flirty and fashion-forward. Paired with a matching crop top, this transparent design is the ultimate trendsetter. Round neck, short sleeves.
I wanted to get a white skirt to wear with the top in case I just happened to attend a white party. Plus I don't have a white skirt in my wardrobe. I almost went with a different white skirt on clearance but I changed my mind because this one is more fitted.
I purchased a size 2, which according to their size chart should fit. I even looked up online what people were saying about sizing to make sure I got the best size for me. I'm crossing my fingers that everything fits the way I envision!!!
So before the discount my total was $103.90. With the 40% off, $41.56 was deducted bringing my subtotal to $62.34. I should've picked up something else because there is free shipping at $75, but instead I paid the $7.95 shipping which brought my final total to $70.29!
Have you purchased anything by this brand? If so please share in the comment section.

Fatkinis r us
Swimsuits For All is a website that caters to women of sizes 8-34. They are a brand that has many reasonably priced suits available and they often have coupon codes or discount codes floating around...(see what I did there...float...swim... Lol)
Needless to say I couldn't pass up the opportunity to get 50% off of their bikinis! I am going to the beach soon and I needed something to look cute in while I'm there. I also took a browse through the clearance section for a onepiece suit for the everyday pool.
First up is the clearance suit.
Tropiculture Sail Away Bandeau Sheath
STYLE # 131088
STYLE # 131088
$19.98
WAS $78
- Signature PowerMesh
- tummy-control lining instantly slims
- Soft molded cup bra
- Removable shoulder straps with sliding adjustability offer two style options: wear as a tank or bandeau
- Sizes 8-16 fit up to a C/D cup; sizes 18-34 fit up to a D/DD cup
- 82% Nylon / 18% Spandex
I got this one because not only was it a good price but it's different from what I normally get for an "every day" swimsuit. I normally stick with black but I liked that it's all black in the back and printed in the front!
The next two suits are from the Gabi collection. I've been eyeing these suits every since launch but I didn't want to pay $100 each when stores like forever 21 were stepping their game up! With this 50% off sale, I didn't feel bad!
GabiFresh D/DD Cup Paradise Found Underwire Mid-Waist BikiniSTYLE # 131002BK
$49.00
WAS $98
- Underwire molded cup bra
- PowerMesh lining provides superior bra support
- Double keyhole back closure
- Metal S-hook closure with 3 adjustments
- Fully detachable, adjustable straps
- 9" mid waist brief
- Double gold tone faux zipper detail
- Fully lined with 100% Polyester lining
- 82% Nylon / 18% Spandex
I wanted the one piece in this print too but there were sold out. This print is so cute and with gold accessories I'm sure it will be kauuute!
GabiFresh D/DD Cup City Slicker Wrap Underwire High Waist Bikini
STYLE # 130982BK
STYLE # 130982BK
$49.00
WAS $98
- Underwire molded cup bra
- Double keyhole back closure
- Metal S-hook closure with 3 adjustments
- PowerMesh shelf bra lining provides superior support
- Fully detachable, adjustable straps
- 11" high waist brief
- Fashion criss-cross drape detailing
- Fully lined with 100% Polyester lining
- 82% Nylon / 18% Spandex
This one is cute and sexy! It's like the little black dress of the the swimsuit world! This one wasn't in stock when I made my initial order so I ended up placing two orders.
So the Gabi bikinis were both 50% off making them $49 each. The clearance suit was marked down to $19.98. Since I placed two orders, I had to pay shipping twice (ugh!) which was $8.99. The shipping price could be better but the suits were too cute to pass up!
As far as sizing goes I'm not sure about the sizes I bought but I'm crossing my fingers they fit! In the one piece I purchased a size 18, in the white bikini I purchased an 18 in both top and bottom while in the black suit I got the top in a 16 due to that being the only size available. According to the size chart the 16 should fit. I'm far from busty, I'm just wide around as far a band sizing goes. For reference I'm always measured at a 42C/D but I always feel better in a 44B. I never fill the C cups and the D cups laugh at me. For bottoms I looked at the amount of spandex in the suits and went with the smaller size since I'm an 18/20.
Did you take advantage of the sale or do you have any cute bathing suits already?

Haul Yeah: Wet Seal
Sorry it's been a while since my last post! So much has been going on. Everything from a car accident to working on my masters. Boy have I been busy!!
But not too busy for some shopping!...
I am a long time lover of wet seal. I've been wearing the brand since the first time they released their plus size line. It's so sad that they closed my nearest store as it carried the plus line. I am glad that they are still in business and sell the plus line online. Needless to say I went shopping!!!!
I needed tops really bad! As of this post wet seal has clearance for an additional 60% off and almost everything else for $15 or less. I couldn't find any additional coupon codes but I still got a great deal.
What great deals did you score over the weekend?

Haul yeah: Forever 21+ Swim
I did it again with forever 21!
I absolutely love this top!! I was so happy when it came back in stock! But it just wouldn't be complete without the bottoms to match!
Model Info: Height: 5'9" | Bust: 41.5 | Waist: 34 | Hip: 47 | Wear Size: XL
Product Code : 2000100798
I purchased a 1X in the top and a 2X in the bottoms. I usually get a 2X in tops but based on the reviews the top cups seem to go pointed when you don't have enough to fill them out. Since I'm more bottom heavy I hope the smaller size will do!
Tropical Print Corset Bikini Top
$17.90
Forever 21+ - When it comes to finding the perfect bikini top, you probably have three requirements in mind: comfort, support, and (of course) style. This one is sure to satisfy all three thanks to its figure-flattering corset construction (including side boning and a padded bust), adjustable straps, and punchy allover tropical floral print. Our favorite touch: the strappy cutouts above the cups and back - it's all in the details.
- Partially lined
- Lightweight
- Shell: 80% nylon, 20% spandex; Lining 1: 93% polyester, 7% spandex; Lining 2: 100% polyester
- Hand wash cold
- Imported
Model Info: Height: 5'9" | Bust: 41.5 | Waist: 34 | Hip: 47 | Wear Size: XL
Product Code : 2000100795
High-Waisted Tropical Cheeky Bottoms
$15.90
Forever 21+ - This pair of cheeky bikini bottoms exudes '50s inspiration and modern-day flair. Their bold tropical print and high-waisted cut are reminiscent of the trend-setting past, while the caged cutout sides are of the moment and beyond. We're loving these even more when paired with the matching bikini top.
- Partially lined
- Shell 1: 80% nylon, 20% spandex; Lining: 82% polyester, 18% spandex
- Hand wash cold
- Imported
Model Info: Height: 5'9" | Bust: 41.5 | Waist: 34 | Hip: 47 | Wear Size: XL
Product Code : 2000100798
The whole suit is so cute! It is so hard to find cute plus size swim suits at an affordable price! Since I tend to buy a couple every year, I don't want to break the bank on just one suit. I will say Forever 21 has gone up on the price of its swim or clothing in general but not so much that I have a major problem buying from them.
Now if only I could get the all black corset top and bottoms to match. Not like I really need the bottoms but the top! It's screaming my name and I'm kicking myself for not purchasing it when I had the chance. Hopefully it was so popular that it will be restocked! More colors would be nice too!
Now all that's left is to take a trip somewhere warm! Do you have any summer plans, or do you live somewhere warm?
