Love my Purple Boots!

My mom was just telling me of a sale she found, so I wanted to share it with you.  Wet Seal sometimes runs bogo free (buy one get one free) or bogo for 1 cent on their clearance items!  Either way a very good deal.  This weekend they even beat that!  They had take an extra 65% off clearance, plus they gave you a fortune cookie that had an extra % off (she went to 2 stores one was an extra 15%, the other an extra 10% off), plus we have a frequent buyer card for an extra 10% off.  Here are some examples of what she got:  Happy shopping!!!

Furry Leg Warmers

All day long people at school were checking out the crazy leg warmers.  No one ever said anything, but they would just stare.  I got these in NYC at a store that was going out of business for about $5.  I love them, so wear them with pride!!!

Turquoise Turtle Neck

I'm usually not big on turtle necks, but this one is comfortable.  I just love the color.  I wore purple flats from Kitson with it.  I liked the contrast to the turquoise.  Someone asked at school what I was thinking...I just said I liked it.  Some people think you have to be all matchy matchcy, but sometimes the unexpected is more fun.

High Waisted Skirt

Finally my mom got me to try on a high waisted anything!!!  She's been after me since this trend started.  I put this plaid skirt on and hated to admit it, but I loved it!  It's got lycra in it, so it has some stretch, or else it wouldn't be comfortable.  I should have worn my cropped boots with a heel, but had to go for some comfort - my classes are all over the place!  I recommend everyone atleast try on a high waisted skirt or pant...you can find a lot of them on sale too!  Here are the details:
