New Year Shopping!

You know what the best part of New Years is? Clearance sales!

I got my shopping fix the other day and scored some great deals along with something new from Christopher & Banks.


The black one in the back is a nicely styled t-shirt from Old Navy. I own one t-shirt from ON that I got in a clothing swap (thank you Tracy!) and I love how it fits. I was hoping for something similar, but this one is very cute on (why else would I buy it?) and a nice t-shirt for work.

The blue one with embroidery I found at Kohl's, along with the red patterned one. The blue one is another great casual t-shirt for work and the red one is sleeveless. Yep, layer with a blazer or cardigan. Both of these were under $5 each! Oh my!

The blue one in the front is from Christopher & Banks and I paid full price for it and it didn't bother me in the slightest! My mom used to buy me clothes from C&B for Christmas every year. Well, we actually bought stuff for each other and had several C&B Christmases! Now that she's gone, the tradition I have chosen to carry on is a new shirt from C&B every Christmas. This year I was unemployed until just before the holiday, so when the money and time was right, off I went to get my new shirt! This one is sheer with a sleeveless tee underneath it. Really good looking for work. I'm sure Mom would approve.

The coolest thing about this clearance season? I've been able to enjoy it with the earnings from my new job! Woot!

Now, just a touch of winter weather commentary. When it's overcast, raining, snowing or something other than sunshine, PLEASE drive with your headlights on! I am amazed at how many folks drive without them on and it is so hard to see those cars in winter weather. My dad taught me to always drive with my headlights on, rain or shine. So for me, it's automatic. I can only hope you will drive with your headlights on so you are more visible on the road.

Until next time, enjoy the day!
