Creative Shopping...


 


I love this Lauren Graphic Short-Sleeve Top. Graphic T-shirts have a feminine differential depending on message and women's t-shirts have a very distinctive cropped arm opening. I loved it, so purchased it about a month ago at Macys full price of $79.00. Buyers remorse quickly set in knowing that was too much for a simple tee. Back it went.  

Today it was on sale for $47.70 and still a bit overpriced, but semi-justifiable. This is where the creative part comes in. My size was now sold out. Not to be deterred I found it in Woman's Plus 1X; much to large. However, I decided to try it on anyway. Turns out it draped beautifully and fits off-the-shoulder now. I love the feminine differential of off-the-shoulder. 

So, if I did not let my aversion to buying large get in the way. I would have missed out 1) better than full retail, and 2) a cute everyday feminine look.   

The Macys Ozula Denim Kitten Heel Sandals were ordered a few days ago, also on sale. I am updating by heels moving toward lower heel height. These are described as "Kitten Heels Heel Height: 2.5 inches".  Sadly, my beloved three and a half heels are becoming hazardous. I have several pair in this "Kitten Heel" style and can actually wear for extended evenings out. I have not receive these yet so will let you know how they work out.  


Think shopping creatively; out of the box sometimes...
