Time to Shop Tax-Free!

13 Aug

Call me a sucker but I love tax-free weekends. It’s a great excuse to support the economy and um…buy some things on my wish list. Today and tomorrow the 6.25% sales tax is waived in Massachusetts. If you’re looking at purchasing bigger items like appliances, laptops or electronics, this is a great chance to save big. Personally, I’ll be happy to have some extra money in my pocket when I check out at Saks. Either way – it’s time to shop!

My DVF Wish List

10 Aug

You all know that Diane von Furstenberg is one of my favorite designers. Well, she continues to amaze me this season. Her use of color is just fantastic! Here are a few of my wish list items. I WILL have at least 2 or 3 of these in my closet. Time to prioritize my fall shopping…

Love the subtle red tone of this wrap dress

This blue tote will match everything – it almost works as a neutral

This chic throwback blouse will look good with jeans or my fave suede skirt

Could I love this beige dress any more than I do? What a great seasonal transition piece

I tend to collect coats – I need this one

These suede boots in cranberry must be bought! Another great piece that can work as a neutral – matches nearly everything

This pretty printed dress will be great for my coveted date nights

A mini skirt is a wardrobe essential. This one in marmalade is cute

This navy blouse is so sweet and will go with nearly everything

Why, yes please…I will take this lovely clutch

Animal prints are hot for fall – this scarf in pink will punch up any outfit

Top off my list with another funky, printed wrap dress

Oh and what the heck – one more fantastic jacket for good measure

Voila! Now if only I could get someone to buy all of this for me…
