Dust Off The Credit Cards, Mama's Going Shopping!

For a couple of months, hubby was sans job and sadly, I have had to lay off the shopping for more practical things like food and bills. Boring! However, despite the bad economy, hubby has landed a nice job which means one thing..shopping for meeeeee!!!! Oh shopping, how I have missed thee! I missed the awful fluorescent lighting in dressing rooms, the smell of the leather as wallets are opened, the sound of cash registers ringing up frivolous purchases that I don't need, the stoic, depressed face of my UPS guy as he hands me the signing pad, on which I scribble something unintelligible as I run upstairs with glee to open my new finds.

In honor of this occassion, I have decided to write about one of my faaaave (and more expensive) shopping sites: eluxury.com. Yes, I cannot afford to buy a $2000 Roberto Cavalli dress, but I CAN buy some of the things on sale!

You can do your last dance with these Mary Janes. No, not the kind you smoke, you crackhead! The kind you wear on your feet!
Marc by Marc Jacobs Two-Tone Mary Janes $159.00


Okay, if I'm wearing heels this high, they have to be stacked.
Derek Lam Penelope Perforated Sandal $359.00


If you carry your whole life in your bag like I do, this is perfect. Now if I could just find my pet hamster...
Dior Gypsy Extra Large Zipped Hobo $919.00


This doubles as a weapon at sample sales. "Don't make me knock you upside yo head beeyotch!"
Roberto Cavalli Jeweled Cuff Bracelet $329.00


Janescloset.com has these really comfy, laid back pieces that are great for layering or wearing on their own. Their site is super user friendly also. You can scroll your mousey over the images and it tells you the price and what sizes are available. There's nothing worse than clicking on something you love only to find it in a size 0 or 12. Or worse: sold out. AARGH!

Anyway, janescloset is offering Peekabag readers 20% off ALL items! Just type in "jess20" at checkout.

Here are some of the items that I lurrrve.

Ahh, the world is right again!
