One of the blessings of
weight loss is that it gives you an excuse to shop. It is also a bittersweet moment, because you
have to part ways with some of your most favorite pieces. Considering
that I haven’t met my goal weight yet, I am in the process of rebuilding my
wardrobe and it will be done on a budget. Remember my 28 cent dress from Old Navy I
purchased a few months ago? If not,
here’s the dress and how I wore it!
So, the other day I stopped
in my favorite Old Navy store. I wasn't looking for anything in particular, just browsing. If you’re like me, I headed straight to the
back towards the clearance section! There
I was…looking through tons of clothes, pushing hangers, holding clothes in
front of me inspecting for spots and also quickly deciding if I’d purchase it
once I saw the price tag. In my search,
I came across three cute dresses but there was a problem! None of them had price tags and so I was a
bit apprehensive. (Usually when I see items
without prices, I automatically assume the price will be higher because there weren't any other dresses like it on the rack).
Determined to find out the price, I asked the fitting room attendant for
a price check. To my surprise, all of
the dresses were…get this…$4.97 each!!!!
To top it off, all of them fit perfectly!!
Now, some of you are
saying, “I would never!” and proceed to the regular priced merchandise and of
course, that is your decision. I’m just
trying to bring awareness that you can still be fashion savvy and still keep
some money in your pocket.
Let me know what you think. Are you a “Bargain Fashionista” like me or do you prefer to shop retail prices only?
