I am often looking for great buys as for i am on a very tight budget, well, not really. I am just Down right cheap! When I worked at a clothing store I was in charge of doing the price changing for sales. I found that they were selling things for unreasonable markups. And I thought to myself that it was wrong that there was such a markup. One example... we had plain t shirts. 100% cotton. no more no less.. nothing special about it at all and they were 30$. Why? I can find a craft store and get a great t shirt blank, 100% cotton, no special cut for a few bucks.
Now it is coming to the season change. soon we will be wearing sweaters and long sleeve tops. Those can get real pricey. I found this store that has a reasonable price for those items. 15$. that is it. 15 $ per item. Jeans, shirts, swimsuits, sweaters, dresses and more. How awesome is that?
The15dollarstore.com
ans as for my pick from the store. It is a hard call because I have found a ton of things that i have always thought were cute but could never see myself shelling out 40$ for. But for the time being i have found this top to be the one i would get first.

So what could be better? Maybe a 10$ store? I will have to search but if I find one I will post it.

So, in recent times we need to start embracing different attitudes in our average lives.
I have taken a stance on the fashion industry and have declared fashion revolution to come.
Breaking molds! when we want something to wear we purchase from stores that everyone else does, we wear clothes meant for the best fit on a model, we wear colors that are for the season and do not suit us and so on. I am sick of it!
First thing is the fact that we let hollyweird and other places determine what we wear. Forget it! I am my own person and I should not be ridiculed by a person who is a supposed authority of fashion. Just remember there are two reason why we wear clothes ( other than the law that makes us) We wear them for protective reasons, and for the basic instincts of attractiveness.
We need to consider this to its fullness.
Protective reasons are obvious. But with the attraction reason we MUST start using a little common sense. Especially women.
Example : wear a low cut top showing cleavage, expect to bring in the type of guy who only liked you for your cleavage. If we keep on doing this as a societal whole then we get what we have now, a whole bunch of drooling wolves with no substance coming on to us in rash manners.
as for the men I have no clue. I think you are hopeless until you evolve a little. Esp. the guys in my area. Do not be afraid of wearing what you think looks nice. DO not worry about heckling from others. Do not be afraid to wear what your girl has picked out for you.
Any-who. Off of that particular rant. Here are the pics for fashion today (do not forget there is more on my website here )
Girls, start being modest! get it to the point where you are realizing that you need to drive a guy wild with gracefulness, class, and your mind.
I have seen some wonderful skirts that are made for discrete beauty.
Perfect for a woman like me, to shy to show legs and has never worn a dress with out a pair of shorts under or a pair of thick tights to cover the legs.
