2011 Black Friday Haul

Here is my very late Black Friday haul :) I actually didn't buy that much this year, but I really love everything that I bought.


(^ yes that is a coffee stain on my closet door. long story short, I am never bringing coffee up to my room when it is cluttered with textbooks on the floor again.)

I went to the mall with my mom at 12 am because a ton of stores opened up then and I didn't want to miss any good deals. Plus, I hate waking up early....I thought it was really smart for stores to open up at 12 am rather than 4 am because so many people would rather sleep late than get up early! That being said, there were so many people at the mall and the parking lot filled up really quickly. We got to the mall at around 12:05 and we parked wayyyy in the back. Inside the mall was even more chaotic. I only went to Gilly Hicks because the lines at other stores were absolutely crazy; plus, I started having really bad cramps xD



This is the only thing I got from Gilly Hicks; it was 50% off so it ended up being $15. It's super cute! I love the lace and the ruffles and the striped ribbon :) The line was super crazy though. Thank goodness the cashiers were moving super fast. I believe I stood in line for 15-20 minutes. After that I ended up going home because my stomach hurt so bad and because my mom was really tired haha.Retail: $35 --> On sale for: $30 --> With discount: $15

Then at around 10 am that morning, I went to Nordstrom Rack. There was a 25% off coupon on Facebook  so both my mom and I printed one out. The store was pretty busy and a lot of people were running around in the shoe section (most of them were looking for uggs haha).


I bought this Steve Madden satchel. I love it so much. The color is perfect and the design is beautiful. Retail: $78 --> Selling for: $45 --> With coupon: $33 :)



My mommy also bought this coat for me! IT'S SO GORGEOUS ALFKJSLFKSAJ (the photo truly does the coat no justice...this photo was taken at night so the lighting is horrible). I kept on insisting that I didn't want it because it was rather expensive but my mom said, "Your grandma has wanted to buy you a really nice coat for some time now, and she called me the other day and told me that if we see a coat that you want, we should buy it and she'll pay for it later....so GET IT!" haha. Thank you so much grandma and mommy :) It's so warm and gorgeous and just absolutely perfect. Retail: $278 --> Selling for:  $148 --> With coupon: about $105

Then I went to DSW, which was right next door to Nordstrom Rack. I wanted a pair of combat boots but there weren't any good deals at DSW -_-" Then I headed over to the purse section and found this gorgeous satchel:


At first I  thought, "It's probably going to be around $35, which is way more than what I would pay for this. I would pay $15 tops." Then I checked the price and it was $30..but then I saw that it had a blue sticker, which meant you take an additional 70% off! So I ended up getting the purse for about $9 including tax :D Such a great deal. Retail: $54 --> Selling for: $30 --> With discount: $9

I didn't go to a lot of stores like my friends (one went to 3 different malls and at least 20 different stores!) but I'm really happy with what I got :)

Even though it's been one or two weeks since Black Friday...did you guys go Black Friday shopping? Did any crazy things happen (did you guys hear about that woman armed with pepper spray)? Any good deals? Please share! :)

Mall (mini) Haul

I stopped by the mall a few days ago when there were a ton of sales, probably because of Labor Day? (Oh, and the coloring of the pictures is off because I'm experiencing with Photoshop. I wanted to create a sort of a vintage-y tone and it worked for the first photo but not so much for the rest...oh well I'm working on it!)



There's a Victoria's Secret bag because I had a coupon for a free hiphugger. Ummm maybe because I'm super conservative or because I'm just awkward, but I don't feel comfortable posting pictures of my underwear online?

^ Yeah, it's definitely because I'm just awkward.



I also went to Gilly Hicks because they had a 50% off promotion going on. The shorts were seriously a lucky steal....they only had the dark wash shorts in a size 0 (my size!) and it was only $13 :)



Finally, I purchased a really cute floral headband from Forever 21. I literally wear headbands every single day (I hate my bangs -____- ) and thought that this would be a perfect addition to my headband collection haha!

Hope you guys are having a good week so far...I'm swamped with doing things for college (as you can tell from the post below this one!) @____@
