BLACK FRIDAY!!!! and student discounts..

Hey everyone happy Friday again!!!!
Now as you guys know next week Friday is the day us shopaholics dream for.. Black Friday!!! Where everything from clothes to electronics are for crazy low prices. Now most stores have not yet revealed their ads for Friday.. but I managed to get ahold of some for you guys so check it out!!!

  • Now my fave. by far so far is definitely the express sale.. Everything 40% off in the store until Noon and 30 % after Noon!!! this does not include sale items but its still a great deal!! I'll definitely be there ..
  • Clearance shoes at Macy's are an additional 50% off.. Everyone knows Macy's clearance rack is bomb so you definitely be able to get a couple of cute shoes to add to your collection
  •  $3.99 clutches at AJ Wright..but knowing that store you'll probably be able to find some for even cheaper!!
  • Women coats 65-70% off at JCPenney... normally their coats be so expensive!! here's a chance to get one without the expensive tag!!
Now these are only a few but it's a good head start, make a plan of the stores you wanna visit and set a budget for each store.

Student Discounts:There are places that carry discounts all throughout the year and not just on Black Friday for students. Here's a list of some stores I found that give out student discounts...

  • J. Crew offers 15% off with college id
  • Ann Taylor also offers 15% off with college id
  • Ann Taylor's sister company gives student a 15% off discount
  • Club Monaco gives a 20% off discount
Also for students who don't live too close to home and sometimes travel through train or plane. Amtrak provides the student advantage card that not only gives discounts on flights and trains but among other things as well here's a list of a few things they provide

  • 10% off at Target.com
  • Macy's 20% off $100.00 or more online

It's Friday!!! NYX

Hey Everyone!!
Well first I wanna thank God it's freaking friday!! for some reason this week just seemed too long for me!! anyway Im going to ask you guys to be patient with me. Im still trying to find my way around on here. Pretty soon I'll have up some lovely pics of myself and some other stuff too!!  Anyway since this is a blog about being fabulous for cheap i've got to have something down!!! so i decided   to write on makeup this time around. Now since Im still finding my way around this site Im not going to fully break it down for  you guys just yet because I have no pictures up yet but here's a slight preview:Now I love makeup.. I probably have more makeup then a single person (not including makeup artists who actually do makeup for a living) is supposed to have. My fav. item is definitely  eyeshadows!! i love them especially bright colors so i would love to share with you guys my fav. and extremely cheap eyeshadow brand. Now I know you guys have heard of M.A.C (who hasn't) but that doesn't mean because you've heard of it you can afford it. Don't get me wrong I love me some M.A.C but if my whole collection of makeup was M.A.C well i probably wouldn't have this laptop to write to you guys!! anywho.. I absolutely love NYX products!! they are extremely cheap  $5.50 on their website for eyeshadows($2.99  at local beauty supply stores) and are just as if not more  pigmented as M.A.C!!! I will definitely  be putting up a post later on showing you guys some of the looks I've made with NYX and also showing you guys M.A.C dupes from their collection.. I always get the most compliments on my eyeshadow when im wearing NYX. I especially love their bright colors and the base pots..but all that's for a later post!! until next time!!!

Girly Girl

For as long as I can remember I have been the ultimate girly girly. I can recall back in second grade when my mother brought me  my first two pair of heels. A black  and white pair. Now the heel was no more than one inch if that , but I loved them and wore them everyday, everywhere. I loved my knee high socks with the skort and matching vest. My mother and i used to get into fights all the time. No those heels were too high. Did i really think she was going to let me out the house with makeup on?? I couldn't wait for the day when I would be free to dress myself and buy whatever I wanted. But since I have some responsibilities  (phone bill, rent , school books, cups of noodles Im a college student y'all know the drill) I couldn't lose control completely with the shopping tip. So I decided I needed a way to still indulge in my favorite pastime, but in a smart sensible way. This blog is dedicated to us girls out there still wanting to look fabulous on a budget hope you enjoy!!
