If it weren't for instagram I wouldn't spend so much money! Lol.

I went to one of my favorite stores today and found some things I've been looking at online. I wanted to avoid paying for shipping so I was ecstatic when I found the items in store!!!

Of Wet Seal that is! I made another purchase because they have had some killer deals! If you don't shop with them then you are missing out!

I am elated that Wet Seal has finally decided to put their plus size in stores! I'm even more excited that my local store got it! That's a rarity in my state. I did have the pleasure of going into my local store but I was disappointed at the selection. There was such a small plus section compared to the rest of the store. I'm assuming they just want to see how well it sells before they go all out. Hopefully!

I think I love Forever 21. They make shopping for the plus size gal so affordable! Needless to say, I picked up a few things.

I've been eyeing a pair of jeans with stars on them for quite some time. They were down to only one size which is my size so I decided to go ahead and make that purchase! I also picked up a few items for the warmer weather like a pair of lace shorts and a bandeau top.

I'm excited about the summer and can't wait to wear them!!!!

I am signed up to receive email alerts from forever 21 and got a great one today. In the email it said that new items had been added to clearance and to top it off clearance was an additional 50% off!

Needless to say I HAD to order some things. Now in some of my post I have links to specific items but f21 sells out so fast that I will do things a tad different. I made a collage of what I purchased along with the price I paid.

So without further ado...

I purchased a few things from Forever 21. I can't believe that my order was under $25 ...well before shipping/tax. *giggles*....

This is what I purchased from the regular F21 line:

Perfect for a casual day, this striped skirt features a smocked waist and two side pockets. Knee length. Knit. Lightweight.


- 16" approx. length from waist to hem, 24" waist

- Measured from Small

- 52% cotton, 48% modal

- Machine wash, flat dry

- Imported

I don't normally ordered from the regular line but this skirt was just too cute. It looks stretchy so we will see how it works.
 
 

Fabulous Finds - Hit the beach or pool with our flip flops featuring contrast colored straps and a textured outsole. Just slip on and go!


- 100% PVC

- Imported


They have a few other colors but my fav color is pink! If they fit well and don't hurt I will definitely come back for more!
 
FINAL SALE - Add sparkle to your beauty routine with our fancy bejeweled slant tweezers.


- 3.75" length

- Imported

I needed a pair of tweezers for my eyebrows. These were cheap and cute but hopefully they get the job done as well.
 
Forever 21+ - Versatile and comfortable, this smocked maxi dress is a definite summer staple. It features an empire waist construction and A-line skirt. Lightweight. Knit.




DETAILS:

- 46.5" approx length from bust to hem, 29" chest, 30" waist

- Measured from 1X

- 100% rayon

- Hand wash, line dry

- Imported

The dress was my main reason for placing an order. I really wanted the dress in yellow but by the time I placed my order, they were out of stock. They have the magenta color, red, and navy left now. The magenta color looks really purple while the red color looks a little pink. I'm chalking that up to color resolution on my pc.
 
My subtotal for this order was $20.80. With tax of $2.07 and shipping of $5.95, my order came to $28.82. I really wish F21 would expand the amount of stores that carry the plus line so that I could avoid being forced to order online and pay shipping fees! Or at least have coupon codes on the regular. On the bright side...Atleast the clothes aren't super expensive.

OMGEE!!!....

So I can't even believe it....Here's what happened....

I have been subscribed to the FaceBook of Fatshion Chic and saw that she was having a contest that was being sponsored by IGIGI. If you've never been to the site, it a plus size girl's delight! They have gorgeous items but I've never ordered....that is until now. I just found out that I won the contest!...I can't wait to order something....Be sure to check out and subscribe to Fatshion Chic

Well I stopped in Forever 21 and saw a cute cosmetic bag. I have been wanting a makeup forever now that I have accumulated a whole bunch more makeup!

Ok so on to the Lane Bryant Haul....Well I only purchased two bras. They were buy one get one half off and then $20 off a $40+ purchase....
 


This one versatile bra offers five fabulous options: traditional configuration, strapless, cross-back, one-shoulder or halter style. We started with super-supportive molded underwire cups in a lightweight fabric. Removable straps (both see-through and in a solid color) can be configured to wear with any outfit.
 
 
 
Removable air pads allow for a little or a lot of lift. Ultralow plunging neckline provides maximum décolletage. Breathable cotton/Lycra® spandex fabric with lightweight lining and underwire offer great support and a smooth appearance.


Ok so...The cheaper bra was of course the one I got for half off and the other (animal print) was the one that it seems the $20 came off of....So in all I paid $36.64 (2.64 in tax)...Of course that's not exact as far as what the discount was applied to but it works itself out.
 
 
So that was my mini haul...More to come soon!

So I found this journal for $3.50 at Marshalls. It had my name written all over it! I plan to write more this year. I plan to write all the things that don't make sense in it. I just wanted to share in case any one else wanted one.

I got a chance to go to forever 21 yesterday to see the faith 21 line. Honestly everything was so crammed into a corner that it made shopping difficult! I did purchase the "pretty sequin skirt" in a 2X for $24.80. I also picked up the tank for $3.80. The cardigan was $15 from ashley Stewart and the tights are from lane bryant for $18. The shoes are from a previous haul from dsw.

I tried to show the makeup but I didn't do a good job. Lol.

Anyways back to the festivities. =]
