Bargain buy feat. Clean&Clear Cream Cleanser

I know that the picture quality here sucks but these are the small mini travel sized ones. The regular sized tube is 6.5 oz. at around $6.50 to $8 depending on where you find them. Target was having a sale on these minis which are 1 oz. and at $0.48 each. 

Naturally, I started doing some math and found that it would be cheaper to buy the minis in bulk when theyre on sale because they were so cheap! I bought ten little tubes for $4.80 with 10 oz. of the product, which is a better deal than $6.50 for 6.5 oz. 

Who knew minis would actually be so much cheaper? 

Great buy!

Target always has the cheapest prices so thats where I go to pick up my favorites. I am not sure about their makeup return policy but I dont think you can return it so I tend to like to try things at CVS because I know for a fact that you can return open  stuff.

Anyways target is good because they always offer double packs like this: 

The double packs are usually cheaper than buying a single one, so thats why I say to always look for a doublepack! These are usually about $5 each at major drugstores or online, but this double pack was about $8 or $9 which is cheaper than what it would have been if it was purchased separately.

Dress: Choies.com $69 | Shoes: Jefferey Campbell Litas $70 from Urban Outfitters | Belt: Michael Kors from Marshalls

Hey guys! 

You might recognize this from one of my previous posts, the Marchesa Marshmellow to be exact (I'm terrible at coming up with titles I know), and YES! its the same dress! I got this dress in black from Choies.com and I found that this dress is a lot better in quality so I think I will do a video on the comparison of these two sites soon!

Anyways, I paired this dainty dress with some pretty badass spiked platform heels to give it a unexpected look and really counteracts the girly details like the wrist ruffles and layers of tulle. Since in the last blog post with the white dress made me look pregnant because the waist is cut so high paired with the fluffy layers of tulle, I paired it with a dark-toned belt. I didn't want to make the belt pop, and wanted to camouflage it a little bit, but I don't own a black belt so forest green will just have to do!

I hope you liked this dress as much as I did!

Top: Edge from Marshall's $7 | Shorts: BDG from Urban Outfitters $20 | Sunglasses: Spitfire from Nordstrom $5 | Shoes: Dolce & Gabbana from Loehmann's $104

Hey guys! Thought I would show off some new bargain buys! The top is a great cotton button-up with small crosses all over them and with cuffs that you can roll up or down. The shorts a made of this denim/spandex hybrid with white polka dots painted all over them. And of course, my favorite shoes and buy of the moment, my Dolce & Gabbana wedges!
I just paired some unexpected dots and crosses together, and a pop of color with my sunglasses! Of course I still need to work on my posing and awareness of the background (didn't know the trashcan was there until I uploaded the pictures >.<) but I think this is a good start!

Marchesa Marshmellow

White Dress from Udobuy $69 | Wedges by Dolce & Gabbana from Loehmann's $104 | Jacket by Giorgio Armani from Goodwill $20

The dress is very light and poufy just like a marshmallow but without the boxy shape. However, the waist is cut very high and does add volume to the torso. The quality is decent, and is on par with Forever 21 quality, however, the junction of the wrist ruffle and the sleeve is a bit itchy. Overall I am very happy with this dress because of the exquisite details of it, and includes a white sewn-in slip which is very convenient.
My Dolce wedges were my bargain buy of the month due do the prestigious names inscribed on the label. There will be a blogpost about them soon so keep your eyes peeled!
