So, yesterday I was on a little online shopping spree. After tax return time, I had some extra cash allotted for some things that I wanted to purchase online. I really wanted the Chloe T-strap wedges and the Eileen Fisher scarf that I had previously blogged about just last week. For some reason I had this urge to go bargain hunting to find similar items for much less money. And what did I find? I found some lovely and chic items for way under 150 dollars total! What's gotten into me? Don't get me wrong, I will always splurge on purses, always ... purses are my absolute addiction and hobby, but sometimes you can save on shoes and other accessories and still look cute and put-together!
Let's examine my bargains!
First of all, here is the Eileen Fisher scarf that I really wanted:
And here is the Love Quotes scarf I found on sale for only $31.99 via Piperlime.com:
Here are the Chloe wedges that I wanted:
And here are the TWO Jessica Simpson (I swore I would never wear JS shoes) wedges I got ($69.99 each- what a steal). So inexpensive that I got them in black AND gold (via Nordstrom.com):
Have you all found any great bargains lately?

Great finds Meg! I finally placed an order from Lulus this weekend. Four dresses for $120!
Cute wedges!!!! I found a great pair of Seven jeans at TJ Maxx on clearance for $20! I LOVE them!! :)
Love those JS wedges and I am not a fan of JS shoes either, haha. I'm with you though... purses and shoes are great splurge items and sometimes you can save on other aspects of your closet!
I love the shoes. I wish I knew how to pull off scarfs!
oh, i like those js shoes! like them better than the more expensive pair actually!
I said the same thing about JS shoes and then I found the cutest patent flats on super sale and bought them in eggplant and black... Shhhhh... No one has to know!
Love the linen scarf too - very European!
I love your finds!! So great!
I've been eyeing those JS shoes for a few days! But, I have been hesitant to order, because I have only owned one pair of shoes from her collection before, and I was NOT impressed! Let us know how you like them once you get them :)
I have like 10 pairs of JS shoes and I love them all! They are comfy and cute and I personally think they're very well-made! Also, if you're going for something super trendy that may not stand the test of time as far as what's in style goes, why not buy JS? For $70ish, who cares if it goes out of style in a year?! Cute finds!
I really love JS shoes and I'm sure you will love the ones you just bought. All the ones I've tried on are SUPER comfortable and they come in great styles. I love love love the scarf you bought - such a good deal!

Great finds! That scarf is really cute!
The scarf you ended up getting from Piperlime looks better than the Eileen Fisher one, IMO!
Spent part of my tax return on a CHI and a few things from the Saks F&F sale, trying to save the rest...
Great finds!
I've always been a bargainer. I spend serious cash on handbags and the occasional to-die-for shoes, but I love sales racks and finding things cheaper. That way, when things go out of style or I don't want them after I wear them once, I don't feel as bad!
BTW, I swore I would never buy anything JS, but I found a super-cute dress last weekend and it's JS. I bought it anyway.
Miss Trish of Capri designs sandals for Target now. Gotta love that! Just in time for the summer season!
Good morning! I tagged you on my blog! xoxo
So funny - was just talking to someone on Twitter about the J. Simpson shoe-buying dilemma. I've very reluctantly bought two pairs of her heels over the past year, and I've been amazed with how comfy they are and how well they've held up.
On the budget wedges note, I just picked up another pair of the Banana Republic espadrille wedges; they made these a few years back, and my pair from then is still going strong.
