A Few Cute, Cheap Things That Are All Well Under 100 Bucks

Okay, as much as Shanna Moakler is pretty busted (and, it goes without saying that Travis Barker is ABSOLUTELY busted), I really liked the Paul & Joe bird printed... er... top (?) she wore to the VMAs this past September:

($70, Paul & Joe Sister, LisaKline.com)

So, I was quite deeeelited to find this Paul & Joe Sister silk top with a very similar print marked down by over $200! I do wonder a bit if it'd create an unwelcoming "enlargening" effect, but whatevs. It's adorbs.

($40, Tagbanger, Oogaboogastore.com)

This guys' shirt is NOT meant to create a similar look to Travis' (ew. as if!!). I just happened to have it in my long list of stuff to post. It IS white and DOES feature bright colors, but no one should EVER aspire to dress like Travis Barker, so let's just chalk it up to coincidence. Anyway, this mens' T-shirt is extremely rad. I sorta wanna buy it for myself (my boyfriend refuses to wear white Tees), but $40 on a Tee is a bit much for me, especially if I don't know how it'll fit. Ah the dangerous perils and pitfalls of online shopping!

I TOOOOOOTES forgot to add this fun shoelace-and-wood-bead necklace to last week's post descriptively, revealingly and enticingly entitled "Jewels: Big, Bold, Funky, Chunky." Anyway, I totes bought this fun kindergarten-reminiscent necklace and am POSITIVE it'll RULE with a dark top, dark jeans and dark Oxfords and maybe a blazer. Let the comments of dissent begin!

Spring Forecasting

Ok. Here's a bunch of stuff I want for spring or pretty much any other season.

Mike and Chris
Ideally, I think someone should buy me this jacket:

($825, RonHerman)

Now the good thing about this jacket: it's awesome. The bad thing: it literally costs as much as my rent. But, I bet it's warm enough to keep me toasty if I needed to sleep outside my apartment for a month!

Apparently Old Navy knocked it off, and while it's sold out (boo!) you can get it on ebay if you're quick-fingered enough. Yay!

Here's another rad Mike and Chris jacket, in a slightly less threatening camel color:

($660, Pinkmascara.com)

And Earnest Sewn has a cheaper, albeit wool, version of THAT jacket:

($248, activeendeavors.com)

Some more cute Mike and Chris stuff that's slighty more in the realistic realm of my beer pockets:

You are totally the smartest girl in your English class in this piece.


($87, Girlshop.com)
Totally the smartest girl in your boring weekly meeting... Sorta reminds me of Karen O., except this isn't really annoying and weird for the sake of being weird. Oh damn... WAIT! They totally NAMECHECKED her in the description! Copy cats. I hate when people cop my genius!

Fantasy Dress

($368, Cynthie Steffe, girlshop.com)
I don't care if it's not very spring-y. It's pretty much awesome. The booby part is VERY Janet 1814/ Madonna, circa her "Express Yourself"/ Breathless Mahoney era.

Rad Shoes, On Sale

($85, oh Deer! -- cute name! -- girlshop.com)
DSS -- Definitely Spring Shoes

Awesome, Yet Way More Expensive Shoes

($341, Eileen Shields, girlshop.com)
Sweet, but I could totally see finding a totes similar pair for more cheapers, you know?

Lame Shirt With Fun Packaging

($25, DOE, 80spurple.com)
Not for all of the free "orange drink" in the world would I ever wear McDonald's apparel, but I DO like the fact that it comes in a Happy Meal box. That's just plain Amurrican fun:



Here's a Token Bathing Suit

($125, Missoni, RonHerman.com)
Loves. Totes great price too. And the stringiness means NONE of that horbs restrictive elastic band situation. Not that I know what that's like or anything. Just heard from other people. Poor dearies!

Cool Shirts

($30, Uzi, Flashlighttag.com)
Awesome.


($32, Opening Ceremony, OogaBoogaStore.com)
Also awesome.

Less Than a Latte
($3, Vegas & Mia, ShopRobertsonLA.com)
Yay! Cheap accessories are awesome in ANY season. K, byeeee!
