A geo-fence is a virtual perimeter set around a physical retail location.

Saving Money on a Fall Wardrobe

Everyone enjoys looking fashionable, but not everyone has the money to purchase the latest catalog collection to stuff their closet. This fact causes some people to completely abandon their sense of fashion and to wearily shuffle through department store clothing racks until something decidedly mediocre catches their eye.

There are better ways to shop, obviously, and borrowing from the grocery store coupon craze, you can actually use online vouchers to save big money on your favorite fall fashions. You just have to approach the topic intelligently and learn to pick your spots.

Tips for Big Savings on Great Clothing

Use the Right Coupon

If you’ve yet to shop with free Coupon Codes, now’s the time. When browsing through the many coupons available to you online, you’ll find deals ranging from free shipping to 50% off of an entire order. There is an impressive range of coupons available for you if you only take the time to look.

Wait for the Store’s Sale

While still using the best coupon you can find, you also want to make sure it coincides with the store’s sale. For instance, if you wanted to save with coupons for Zulily, you would wait until Zulily held a sale. This way, you’re doubling your savings. You’re experiencing the store’s savings while also receiving the benefit of using an online voucher. This can turn an otherwise expensive shopping spree into a fun and affordable way to find fashion.

Be Frugal-Fabulous

There are personal touches you can add to clothing items to make them stand out and to compliment your particular style. Okay, so maybe you don’t want to take the Bedazzler and go rhinestone-crazy like a teenager in the 80s. But instead of purchasing an entire outfit for a high price, piece things together with different budget items and create an ensemble look that really fits your personal sense of style.

Shop for All Seasons

Something that just screams “fall” might be what you’re after, but consider buying pieces you can also wear during other times of the year if needed. This might not be the case with coats, with long sleeve shirts and pants can be worn practically any time of year,  and boots and scarves just might make a strong springtime statement with a different ensemble.

Overall, the general idea here is to save your hard-earned money without having to sacrifice on your fashion. It’s going to take some browsing and some good timing, but the end result might just be a fabulous fall wardrobe.

Product Review: Hair Accessories from Sproos + Coupon Code

Recently, the lovely Melissa Matos from Sproos sent me a couple of hair accessories to try and review for The Fashionable Housewife readers. Her shop offers unique hair accessories that are high quality without the high price – plus, her products are just so darn cute!

She sent me the Cheetah’s Roar Bow Clip, ($13) which you can use to add a bit of pizazz to your look. Plus, it functions as more than just a hair accessory – you can clip it to just about anything to really show off your personal style. I clipped it to my handbag and got so many compliments while I was out running errands. I also like to wear it with a basic t-shirt and jeans, because it really helps dress up an otherwise basic outfit.

I was also sent the Girl With The Pearl Bow Headband, ($29.) Now, I’m not normally much of a headband girl – they tend to make me remember the painful, uncomfortable plastic headbands I used to wear as kids. However, this headband is not only elegant and very stylish, but it’s ridiculously comfortable to wear too. If you love bows, pearls and classic style, you’ll definitely love this headband.

Melissa was kind enough to create a coupon code just for The Fashionable Housewife readers. If you’re interested in these hair accessories from Sproos, use the code “Denise20” at checkout for 20% off your entire order. How’s that for a fantastic deal? With a variety of bow clips, headbands and flower clips to choose from, you’ll have no trouble at all finding things to fill your cart with. Happy shopping!

 

 

Crocs Dawson Boots Kids Comfortable Shoes Review


Crocs Dawson Boot (Children's) - Bubblegum/Chocolate

Crocs Dawson Boot Kids Shoes


Got these for my son (15 months old) in a size 5, in black. He’s been wearing them inside and outside for weeks. I like them because he can’t take them off easily, they keep his feet warm and they appear to be very comfortable. He has a few pairs of shoes/boots that he won’t keep on his feet and he visibly complains about… “Off! Off!” he says to me and points at his feet. He never seems to have an issue with these boots though.

They are super freaking cute, look great with all his pants and are easy to put on with zippers on the inside. (No laces! Yay!) They are also lightweight and easy for him to walk in. I also like they they are supportive for his feet and ankles. How can you go wrong?
