JUNE Shopping SBree: Last Minute Deals

Dillard's
BCBG Binded Neck Dress $128 $62 $45
I saw yet another Youtuber promoting that ridiculous Le Tote site which charges you $50 a month to BORROW five random items of clothing and jewelry. Anywho, she was wearing this dress in a bright coral color and I thought it was really pretty so I looked it up online and found it on sale at Dillard's for $62. Plus Dillard's had an additional 30% off that was going to end that day! When I got to the store they didn't have the dress in coral anymore but they had it in cream and in black and I chose the cream color.
Gianni Bini Love Sweater $89 $31 $22
I also got this sweater I'd been eyeing for over a month now. I couldn't bring myself to pay $31 for it but $22 was my magic number! 
Unfortunately it has a rip under the armpit that I noticed when I got it home so I have to return it :(
ALDO
Gallington $35 $21
I saw this bag when I was on vacation about two weeks ago and had a feeling the bag would be going on sale if I waited it out and sure enough it did! Plus all sales merchandise is going to be an additional 30% off until July 20th so you should definitely check out Aldo's sale section the next time you're at the mall.
ULTA

Rimmel Scandal Eyes Eye Liner in Nude
Rimmel Soft Kohl Kajal Eye Pencil in Purple
Rimmel Lasting Finish Kisses Lip Liner in Spice
Rimmel Lasting Finish Kisses Lip Liner in Cappuccino 
Rimmel Products were bogo and I used the $3.50 off $10 coupon that was ending that day as well. My total came out to be $8.56 which is a little over $2 per item!


This shopping trip was abruptly cut short but I was able to make it to the important stores and get the deals that I wanted before they expired. I missed out on getting a few freebies from Walgreens but there's always next week!

JUNE Freebies & Cheapies ft. VS Pink, F21, DSW, LOFT, and more!!

Victoria's Secret PINK
I finally got some Mean Girls shirts!!!!!!
I hadn't bought any until now because I have only seen basic tees in boring colors. I saw that the new PINK store at my mall opened when I was on vacation so I ventured in with my rewards card and was not disappointed!
$22.95 $12.95 after $10 reward card

I was weak and gave into buying the cliché quote top as well. I like that it works for the movie and the store as well.

Got 3 for $26.61 after taxes

I submitted a Shopmium rebate for a free Lindt bar because I was referred. You can use the code: YAYUMHTU to get a free bar too!

JUNE Shopping SBree: Vacation Edition :D

A'Gaci Summer Frenzy Romper <3 
MAC's KELLY YUM YUM!!!! 
I was mad that I couldn't snag it before it sold out online on MAC and Nordstrom AND Macys and basically every other department store known to man. My alternative plan of action was to go to the local MAC store early on the in-store release date. Fastforward to that day the MAC at the smaller mall sold out but to my surprise the next day I tried my luck at a larger mall and it was the only shade still in stock!!

  
Bite Beauty High Pigment Lip Pencil in Bouquet
My cousin actually picked up the color and tried it on first. Once I tried it on and added a little lipliner I fell in love and immediately proceeded to checkout. When I got back home I realized this shade was actually on my wishlist in the Sephora app. Kudos to the cuzzo.
Vans Lo Pro in Neon Coral
I literally never wear sneakers and I only have one pair of Nikes my mom bought me for Christmas 2012 that I wore for the first time just recently to a mandatory club field day. Yet and still somehow my cousins and the saleswoman at Journeys managed to convince me to get these puppies. Sadly, I can't say that it took much because I'm addicted to all things coral.
I also picked up a TON of skinny belts from A'gaci because I have literally been searching years and years for affordable belts that would actually fit. I have a few from Forever 21 that are too short to go around my natural waist which is frustrating. I also haven't seen colors like these at Forever or any other stores. At least not for $3.50.
Old Navy sent me a $10 reward coupon so I used it to buy this ring and matching earrings which I've already lost whole unpacking lol.
I also bought the Sensationail Gel Polish in Island Oasis which I'm wearing in the photo as well.
 Forever 21 crop tops!!
I was on a mission to find more colorful crop tops since my haul last month. I finally found some more on my last night in Jacksonville. They had a better color selection and were a bit cheaper than the ones I was seeing at other F21 locations.

MAY 2014 FAVORITES

Beauty


Urban Decay Electric Palette- I'm having fun playing around with the bright colors.
Tweezerman Tweezers- Best tweezers I've ever used! They're really good at gripping short stray hairs.


Shows & Movies

Sabrina the Teenage Witch- I started watching the series from the beginning on Hulu. Sabrina and Harvey are still adorable.
Orange is the New Black- I watched season 1 for the third time on Friday. It only gets better I can't wait for the season 2 premiere on June 6th!!
The Perks of Being a Wallflower- I'm honestly upset that I waited so long to watch this movie!

Food & Drink


PINK Tumbler- This is the only thing I drink out of now. It's unbreakable, seals tight, and it has a straw. :)
Mango Italian Ice...and ice cream in general


Technology


Ban.do Back Me Up Mobile Charger- Cute and functional. It's a lifesaver when I go shopping. No more having to charge my phone in the Dillards bathroom!
The Mashup by Girls United- It's a mashup of Paranoid, Loyal, and Show Me. I found the song 2 weeks ago and have been listening to it non-stop since!
Shoprunner- They offer free 2 day shipping and returns for tons of stores. I'm sad my 3 month free trial is coming to an end :'(
