Shopping Magic

I had no idea shopping could be so much fun before I started buying women's clothes.  Finding something cute, at a good price, can make your whole day.  Let me share some recent shopping stories with you.

Two new stores just opened within walking distance of my house -- Urban Outfitters and Target.  I was browsing UO and noticed they were offering 50% off everything in the store.  I went to the sale section where items were already marked down and asked if these, too, were half-price.  They were!  They cost only half of the sale price.  What a bargain.

I snapped up two pieces that really appeal to me.  The first is a leather skirt -- real leather -- in lavender.  Lavender!  Wow.  Making this even better is the price -- originally $40, on sale for $20, and only $10 at half-price.  I paid $10 for a real leather skirt in a rare color.  I also picked up a cute striped dress for $13.

At Target, they were selling colored tights in a variety of bright colors.  Normally, $10 a pop, they were two for $8.  So I snapped up four of them which will be perfect for creating fun Fall outfits.

Here's the skirt and one of the tights.  Aren't they great?!  Do you have any shopping stories?  Tell us!
