A Savvy Shopper has Brunch

The Blackthorn Club is a great place to have Sunday Brunch.


Today Mr. Mickey took me to brunch. I thought it would be fun to see if I could put together a nice outfit that cost me less than $100.

I love to go shopping during the end of season sales. Sometimes I find treasures mixed in with the shopworn sparkly fake fur spandex things hanging there too.

The black knit pencil skirt is old from T.J. Maxx ($16.99). The jacket and tank top are from the current Red Dot Clearance rack from Stein Mart. I had a coupon that gave me an extra 50% off, so the jacket was $17.49, and the tank top was $3.47!
 


The necklace and ring were gifts from Mickey.



The leather (like) clutch is old from T.J. Maxx, $12.99.




The suede and snakeskin shoes are from the current clearance sale at Belk $23.99.



Total cost for the whole outfit, including the $8.50 Hanes pantyhose ...
$83.43!

Thank you for reading. 
I hope you find some great bargains this week!

  1. I am in a quandry that perhaps you can answer. When are panty hose appropriate? No one in Florida seems to wear them, but I am not thrilled with the look of bare legs with nice outfits.

    Lovely outfit.

  2. I published a post a couple of days ago on legwear. Look for "Nice Legs" from February 16th. I always wear hose with a dress unless it's a mid calf or maxi dress in summer with sandals.

  6. Thank you Nora. Please click on the Recipes link above. Those are the meals I normally eat everyday. When I go out to eat I share with Mickey or just order a salad and a glass of wine.
