Polar Vortex Shopping Haul!

Brrrr! This weather is really beating us down here in Michigan the past few days. We're experiencing a Polar Vortex and it's not going to leave anytime soon. Lake Effect snow, strong winds and dropping temps (which is pretty much typical winter weather) has given  most of us cabin fever! 

The view from my back porch this evening

The weather was not going to stop me from getting out of the house! I let my husband drive us into town which is a 20 mile ride. We could go no faster than 40 mph with the slippery road conditions, but we made it! I don't see how people in Michigan, especially northern, buy vehicles without 4 wheel or ALL wheel drive, to me it's a MUST. We grabbed some lunch at one of our favs, Red Ginger and headed to browse the stores.

The 3 line highway was deserted

POLAR VORTEX HAUL! lol!

 

• Rebecca Minkoff Flirty Bag: ok, so how cute is this BAG! I'm not really in the market for a new one since I bought my LV (review on that purse here), but when you run into a deal too good to pass up, you don't pass it up! This is a leather cross body that's quilted. It has polished studs on both sides of the purse and a chain and leather strap. It also has a leather tassel on one side. It's a classic petite purse. Currently it's sold out on Nordstrom's. I love her handbags, they give an elegant and edgy look. I scored such a deal, that I bought two of these bags. If you'd like to purchase the other one, you can at my eBay listing HERE.

• This duo OPI pack I scored for $7.99. The shades take me to the summer, which I'm SO needing right now. The bottle on the left is called Did It On 'Em from the Nicki Minaj collection. You can see a full review of the polish with swatches here. The other color on the left is labeled "Frog in my throat". I tried to Google it to no avail. After a little research, I found out it's completely mislabeled (OPI doesn't make a color called that!) It is actually called Just Spotted the Lizard from the Amazing Spiderman Collection. More views and pics on this color here. This particular color is an amazing dup for Chanel's color Peridot which was a limited edition and not available anymore. You can pay the high dollar for it on eBay if you want it though. I totally scored!! 

• If this doesn't scream summer I don't know what does! Neon all lace Jessica Simpson panties! They are shockingly colorful and pictured in a coral, purple and pink. I took the first picture without a flash and the second picture with a flash to show you just how vibrant the color really is. I would love a bathing suit in these shades. I prefer the airiness of lace and mesh underwear. I hope these are as comfortable as my Wacoal Women's So Seductive Hipster Panty that I can't live without. Just a little Valentine's gift to myself. These retail for $12.99 and I got them for $2.99. 

That is the end of my shopping haul. Feel free to leave me a comment or question below. I hope you all have a great weekend, stay warm!
