Fall Favourites (New Purchases)

Hey everyone! I recently went to a few stores to pick up a few new pieces for fall. I also found a few items that I came across haphazardly. Such as the awesome Ninja Turtle mug that I found at Marshalls for $7.99. The moment that I seen it, I had to have it in my life! I tried looking for another one but, I managed to score the last available mug.


How does this overly green mug even relate to fall you may ask?

Well I'll break it down for you: Fall = dropping temperatures and with that, our bodies need extra warmth in any which way we can. I bought this mug to increase my coffee, hot chocolate and soup intake. (Yes, this mug is big enough to drink a can of soup out of!)

During the same trip at Marshalls, I stumbled upon a faux leather backpack that was on clearance for $29.99. Another great find! I had been searching the Internet for one but I was not too fond of the drawstring closure I was seeing repeatedly. This too, was the very last one. For anyone curious, the brand is: Isabelle Handbags. Also, on the tag, it reads that this backpack is comparable to $75.00.

Well... I ended up going back to Marshalls...

Because there was this awesome jersey inspired long sleeved shirt that I was eying but I decided to not go forward and purchase it. I didn't try it on the first time I was in store but it really helped to see a model wearing it and that's when I decided that I had to go back to purchase it. I snagged the last size small and it was the same price at Marshalls as it was on Hautelook. I was really having good luck with this store!  

Then, I ended up at Ardene...

I was browsing the store originally to find a silver necklace with spikes, but then I got distracted when I seen some booties underneath the 80% off sign. I tried the black pair on originally, and they fit perfectly. The only downside is that you can NOT wear socks with them. I liked the black pair so much that I also bought them in tan. Originally, each pair of boots would have cost me $39.50, but with the 80% off, it ended up running me only $7.90 per pair. When I received my receipt, I glanced at the bottom and it read, "Your savings: $63.20."

Q: Would I have purchased each pair for full retail value? 

A: Probably not.

I did find a similar pair on Hautelook for you if you cannot find them at an Ardene store close to where you live. They are also being offered in black and tan, (the same two colours I purchased them in.)

Last but not least, a few weeks ago, I purchased a fall handbag for every day use. My old one was ruined and I desperately needed a replacement. I ended up purchasing the Tosca Handbag in the colour Burgundy.  I love this bag because it is very durable, stylish and is excellently made.

Well, that just about wraps up my lucky Fall Finds.

Stay warm and until next time,
