There are some amazing sales that happened before Christmas that make it hard for me to focus on the task at hand (shopping for others and ignoring the fabulous sale prices on all the things I am loving)! But if you hold out, the sales get even better after Christmas!!
Carlos has had this week off between Christmas and New Years and we have been able to do some fun activities with the bambinos (Discovery Museum and Zoo). So, yesterday, Carlos and I had a very RARE day date without the kids! We had lunch at Bun Mee, hit up some of the fabulous sales at Kate Spade (40% off certain items), Nordstrom (Men’s Half Yearly Sale), Zara (practically the entire store is on sale), JCrew (additional 30% off women’s sale items) and Madewell (additional 30% off sale items), pre-dinner drink at Spruce and then dinner at Chapeau (where we had our very first date over nine years ago – will blog more about Chapeau later).
Above are some of my scores from our shopping extravaganza (Carlos got a pair of shoes at Nordstrom – but I figured you didn’t need to see those). The tote and clutch from Zara I had been eyeing for awhile and was excited to get them both on sale. I exchanged a larger tote at Kate Spade that I got for Christmas and was able to get the black tote plus the earrings and bracelet I had been wanting! Love the bright blue sequin and brown crew neck sweater I bought at JCrew at 30%off. The snood (because can you ever have enough snoods) from Madewell was a steal at $14. I definitely have to say that shopping is a WHOLE LOT EASIER without three kids in tow! It was a really fun day date for us!
Is everyone getting ready for New Years Eve? What are your plans for NYE?
Major scores all around! I was not able to make it through all the shops (my husband apparently told my kids to make it impossible for me to spend money 🙂 but I was able to find some fabulous deals at Net-a-Porter. LOVE after Christmas sales!
