Weekend Recap: Nothing = Bliss

Hello Loves,

 



Normally I feel like I accomplish many things during the weekend. Bits of house projects get dwindled off of my to-do lists along with having new projects get starting.

 



This weekend though was different. We had massive amounts of rain all weekend long. I was originally going to go to the fabric district in the city on Saturday, but with the winds howling and the rain falling I gave those plans a good old rain check.

 



While my weekend was filled with a lot of doing NOTHING! It was delightful just to sit around and watch movies, read magazines, bake banana bread, but I did venture out of my house before the rain got too bad and decided to find some bargains for myself and not my house!

 



So off I went with my mom in tow to one of my favorite shops for deals….Nordstrom’s Rack.

 



Check out what I came home with:

 



This lovely French Connection dress has beautiful crewel work detailing on it. 

 



It was originally $198


Then on sale for $79.97


I got it for….. $19.97!

I also bought home a dress from one of my favorite lines: Leifsdottir (which is one of Anthro's brands)

 



This dress was originally $398


Then on sale for $ 159.97


It’s on sale at Bloomies for $119

I got it for $ 39.97!

My last purchase of the day was a dress that I actually had my eyes out the last couple of times I was at the rack, but it always fit a little too tight.

 



Well this Saturday the Trina Turk beauty fit like a dream.

 



It was originally $295


Then on sale for $89.97


I got it for $ 22.97!

Woo hoo! I think I deserve a black belt in shopping for all of those finds!

 



The last dress will actually be making it’s debut this weekend, because I was asked by the sweet people at DIFFA to blog live from their Dining by Design event that will take place from March 18th-22nd in conjunction with the Architectural Digest Home Show.

 



So if you are in the NY area and want to meet me and my fab dress I’ll be there Saturday from 10am- 11am.

 



xoxo,

  5. Love Love Love the Rack! Beautiful dresses. I keep telling my husband that I am saving us money... he always tells me that saving would be not buying at all. I fail to see his point. =)

  10. Wow, what amazing deals! I really REALLY want a Nordstrom rack to open up near me. I've always heard it's got way better deals than Off Fifth or Last Call.

  11. Oh, it was SO nice of you to pick up that Anthro dress for your youngest sissy!

    Should I meet you before your event on Saturday so I can change into it? ;)

    Honestly, what did I tell you about 1- going shopping 2- buying anything orange, 3- buying elephant jewelry without me? This never should be done.

    Love ya,
    Danay

  14. A Nordstrom Rack is opening up near my office very soon, and I can't wait! Well, I'll have to wait until I'm out of maternity clothes, but it will be a prime shopping destination once my bod is somewhat back to normal. :)

  25. My favorite kind of weekend is when nothing is on the calendar. It's the only time I get to shop - on-line or otherwise. Hope you have a great week.
