Fab Finds

Happy Friday ladies and gents!  I do a closet purge every 6 months for the purpose of keeping things uncluttered and simple in my life and this week has been dedicated to this endeavor.  Getting organized is the first step to feeling in control of your life.  Stressing about where you put your keys or where those boots disappeared to can be avoided with having some sort of  organizational system.  There's enough stress in life and the little things are so not worth it.  I also hate hanging on to things that I just do not use knowing that someone else could be finding joy out of it.

As I look through my assortment of tees, dresses, jackets and shoes, I realize that I'm pretty eclectic with my wardrobe.  I laughed at myself as I dumped an Ella Moss black tank top into the donate pile the other day.  I had had it maybe 6 months but it looked like it had taken a serious beating.  It no longer had any stretch and the lace was fraying and falling apart.  I compared it to my basic black tank I'd had from Target for over a year.  My Target tank is still going strong.  Just goes to show that while I love Ella Moss, you cannot always determine how something is going to hold up based solely on it's price.  Learn to be objective with your purchases.

Yes, some things that are cheap ARE cheap.  How they look, how they feel, you know right off the bat that it's going to fall apart in the wash.  And things that are more expensive last longer if they are quality made but not always.  If anyone used to wear Abercrombie, you are familiar with spending $80 on a shirt only to look at the tag and see it was made somewhere in Sri Lanka and it ends up lasting a whole week before falling apart.  Whew! Glad my A&F days are over! With that being said, I realized I've purchased some pretty awesome shoes in my day, some cheap, some not so cheap.  Mind you, I have donated a pair for every new pair I accumulate to ensure there will always be room!  I know everyone appreciates a good bargain and I wanted to showcase this week the fab feet finds I have under my belt.  These shoes were all not only under $40 each, but also don't look or feel cheap on your feet.
