Spring Bargains

 It's been a while, but here I am.  Have dealt with injuries, including a spill down the front steps on Christmas Eve.  I tripped, fell, and spun in the air, landing in the flower garden. Nothing broken, but bad sprain of knee and ankle.  Then, we all got sick after Jan 1; again, not as bad as it can get for me with my asthma, so it's all good.  

I was still able to get to church, go to a friend's for Christmas Day, and travel three hours to visit with my cousin for Christmas on the 26th.

Thanks to  my husband, I made it to one after Christmas sale.  Dillard's had 75% off, and I found an abominable snow man sweater, and a few ornaments.  

Lately, I found a designer sweater thrifting, under $5.  Also I've seen great $5 T-shirts of Winnie the Pooh and other licensed character at Five Below.  They have great jewelry deals at $5 and under as well.

Walgreens is featuring jewelry again, some seasonal, but many classic styles with pearls in gold tone.  There are statement necklaces featuring hearts and flowers, crystals, rings, etc.  Some of these also appear at CVS.  CVS has it's own .99 cent hair accessories and jewelry as well.

Keep your eyes opened and watch for sidewalk sales.  If  you find online shopping deals, pleas let me know.  I haven't done much online shopping for clothing and accessories, though a few years ago, I did snag a pair of Manolo Blahnik sandals for $27.00.

The Spring Runway shows are about to begin; check with Vogue.
