Goldenbleu wedge pump - $115.50 (orig. price $385) plus free shipping

the what

the how
tons of other deals on shopbop w/ their awesome winter sale (up to 70% off!!), and always FREE SHIPPING if you choose UPS ground


the why
i love these shoes!! ideally, these Goldenblue wedges would be (slightly) more comfortable to walk in than regular heels, and the round-toed, stitching design makes it uniquely stylish from other pumps! comes in sizes 6 through 10 in three colors: ebony, dark grey (i like this one the best!!), and camel. Goldenbleu usually makes some great soft leather handbags, so i would imagine these shoes are of awesome quality!! grab 'em fast...i've noticed that lots of shopbop deals have been snatched up as i write this!

Denim Tote w/ $70 Worth of Coupons + Mentha Lip Shine $11 shipped

the what
Bath & Body Works Denim Tote with $70 worth of coupons + C.O. Bigelow Mentha Lip Shine for $11 shipped!

the how
add the $5 tote and your choice of a $5 mentha lip shine to your cart, then apply coupon code Welcome1218 for $5 off.

the why
The denim tote looks only okay...but $70 worth of coupons for free stuff (free Scentport™ Diffuser, Wild Honeysuckle item of your choice, Temptations 3-in-1 (body wash, bubble bath and shampoo in one), Signature Collection item, and True Blue® Spa or Bronze Bombshell™ item, plus $10 off any treatment from Patricia Wexler M.D.) is pretty nice. Who knows what any of that stuff is, but you can't beat the price!
The kicker for me was the C.O. Bigelow product. Their lemon sugar body scrub is to die for, and I hear their Mentha Lip products are wildly popular and have been wanting to try!

launch!

Ever wish that someone else would scour the web looking for fashion deals? Welcome to the newly-launched FashionistaDeals blog! Here we will post good deals we come across on clothes, shoes, beauty products, accessories, and anything else that is just too good to pass up! (Note: there will be no posts for computer parts, speakers, digital cameras, and things of that sort. There are plenty of other very well-done sites for that type of thing.)

This blog is an experimental tool for us to figure out: 1) whether we are any good at this, and 2) whether there is enough interest in this to be launched into something bigger and better!

If you have any comments and/or suggestions (or deals!) please post in the comments! Or email us at fashionista.deals@gmail.com. We love sharing! =)
