Cosmetic organizer

A few days ago my sister, suggested for me to get a makeup organizer since she's having a hard time digging in my makeup bag lol. So I was at Marshalls the other day and I saw this lady buying this clear cosmetic organizer and by the time I walked down to the aisle that sells those organizer, the lady bought it all :(

So, I went to good ole' container store and I saw the exact same cosmetic organizer and it costed $40! That's a little too pricey for something clear and plastic! I was shopping around at TJ Maxx, sister company of Marshalls and of course I found the same cosmetic organizer as I saw at Marshalls! It was $19.99!!!! Half the price as the Container store! Wait, even better! I got it only for $9.99!!!! Well that's because TJ Maxx sent me a $10 gift certificate for spending X-amount on my card! I really don't recommend anyone opening a card because their interest rate is high but the card can come in handy because you can accumulate points and then you'll receive a gift certificate :) bad but good lol

 What are your favorite type of cosmetic organizers?

Here is how the organizer looks like it. It has 9 compartments to organize your eyeshadows, brushes, lipsticks, blushes, etc.... I just love how this matches with my clear makeup box that I have :) I love anything clear and that has mirrors :)





Finished filling up my cosmetic organizer with all my makeup I used daily and the rest are in my other makeup box
I also like Kim Kardashian clear shelves makeup box she has on her show! Must find those but at a more affordable price! The one I found online were $100+ 
I also would love this vanity!

New Shoes for Spring 2012!

So what are your favorite pair of shoes to wear this coming Spring? I love to wear nude pumps or heels and cute wedges!

Here are some of my favorite pair of wedges I love to wear during the Spring/Summer

GUESS Women's Batiko Wedge Sandal leather:



I got the white pair at Macy's on sale for only $21 including tax and that's with 20% off coupon! **Remember to always use Macy's promotional coupon because they always come in handy! :-) So I wanted the Black pair but they weren't on sale :-(

However, I found the black pair recently at good ole' ROSS Dress for less store! Love that store! I got it for $33. Even though, it cost more than Macy's but it's better than paying the full retail price of $98.

I saw that they have a dark pink color in this pair of wedge and I really love the tan color but they don't have my size at Macy's nor Ross! :-( These wedges are so comfortable to walk in all day!


Nina Calinda Silver Wedge Shoes - Nina Shoes:

I bought these pair last Spring and still Love Love Love them! they are extremely light and comfortable! I got them at Ross for $25! They are originally $90!

BCBG nude peep toe:

Aren't these darling?! I just love it how I can wear it with everything, literally! Tan and nude just makes life so easier when dressing up yet at the same time it makes it classy!

I got these also, at Ross! BCBG to me are usually comfortable and yet again this pair doesn't fail me... I got these pair for $20!!!! What a steal! BCBG usually cost $70+


DV by Dolce Vita 'Briar' platform pumps:



I love bows and nude = PERFECT! I just discovered this brand and I am fascinated with all their designs and style of shoes. Theses pairs are quite comfy and stylist. This brand tend to run at $110 BUT of course I got these at ROSS for $40! :-)

Bargainista Time to shine!

Hello!!! it has been so long that I have even blogged. The last time I blogged was on Xanga! and honestly, I don't even know when was the last time I even logged in there lol Does anyone blog on there anymore?

So, I've been meaning to start my own blog on this site with all my great bargain shopping sprees that I have been doing in the past years! I just never got the chance or the time due to my crazy schedule. Yes, this is what happens after you graduate college lol... life only consists of work and shop; well for me that is! lol

The purpose of my blog is to introduce you to all my great buys I encountered and my shoe hauls! I honestly, wear most of my dresses once and I believe that it's not worth buying hundreds or thousands of dollars for just a one night event...unless if it's a very special formal occasion... there are exceptions sometime for me lol

Overall, you don't need to buy expensive clothes to look fashionable or "look good." My mom always said, it's how you present yourself! even if that clothing piece is that x-amount of money but if you're sloppy or have a bad attitude = nothing will look good! doesn't matter how much it cost!

Hope ya enjoy and always remember SHOP SMART! ~Bargainista Time!

My Aunt in law got my sis and I these cute fashionable key chains. Aren't they adorable?!




Just a sneak peek of my shoe hauls
