MK all Day
Michael Kors, one of America's most known high fashion designers, can come with a pretty penny price tag. Adorable fall sweaters go for easily $120 at department stores as well as the Michael Kors boutiques. However, the Michael Kors Outlets have amazing prices on their chic and classic pieces. At the outlet, I found the perfect navy blue sweater that is a great staple to any wardrobe. (And of course, affordable for any budget!)

I heard you're a player. Nice to meet you, I'm the COACH.
One of my favorite designers for handbags and wallets would have to be Coach. Coach wallets, wristlets and handbags are so classic that they are always in style! Although Coach designs come with hefty price tags, you can find amazing deals at the Coach Factory Outlet! This past week I found this wallet (original $148) that was on sale for $99 then additional 50% off the whole store! So my final cost was $53.16!

When in doubt, go to the Outlet.
As summer dwindles down, my favorite fashions come out for fall. Cute sweaters, new denim washes, and ballet flats for every color of your mood. One of the best ways to go shopping for a seasonal wardrobe would be to go to an outlet mall. They have all designer fashions all for easily 75% off! They also almost always have daily sales on top of their already low prices! Here are some of the fierce fashions I found!

Roses are red; so is my wine. Refill my glass, and I'll be just fine.
Want to make a beautiful, personalized wine glass for yourself of a loved one?! Here's how!
Materials:
-Folkart glassware paint (has wine glass pic on the bottle)
-wine glass (found one at Walmart for $0.98!
-thin paint brush
-print-outs of names, pictures, etc.
-Tape
-Scissors
Total cost for this fabulously frugal gift idea : $4.71!!
1) Print out pictures of something thy you want on the wine glass as your guide. I used two palm trees then printed out my best friend's name out in cursive from a Word document.
2) Wash your wine glass with warm soap and water, then let the glass air dry for at least 15 minutes.
3) Using scissors and tape, cut out the printed pictures for your glass and line up to make sure they are straight. *Be sure to tape the print out directly against the glass for the best results.*
4) Using a very thin brush, trace the lines of the designs you have, making sure you have a napkin available in case you slip up!
5) Once the glass is completely painted, you can either wait 21 days for it dry (OUTRAGEOUS -I KNOW!) or place the glass upside down on a cookie sheet and put in the oven. Then set the oven to 350 degrees while the glass is already in there for 30 minutes. The glass must gradually be heated or else it will break.
6) Leave glass in the oven until the oven is completely cooled.
7) Add a couple bottles of wine to a little basket and you have for yourself a nice gift!!!
