When's the next sale?

As a college student on a budget I don't get to shop as often as I would like. This summer I treated myself to a few things that I wouldn't usually justify spending money on. One of those things are the high waisted faux leather shorts I wore a few days ago.

This is summer Zara had a huge sale and lucky for me these shorts were a part of that sale. It took a while for me to actually buy the shorts. After putting them in my shopping cart I would check the site every few days to see if they were still there. If they were gone then I would know it wasn't meant to be. After two months of keeping my eye on these shorts I knew they had to be mine.

Shirt: Forever 21 Shorts: Zara Shoes: Aldo

Watch: Relic Purse: H&M

Now that the sale is over and I'm back at school I can't feed the Zara addiction that I developed over the summer. I still check their website religiously to see all the pretty new clothes. Hey Zara, when's the next sale?!

Was That A Good Deal?

Yesterday I hit up the Woodburn Outlets with a few of my sorority sisters. I did a lot of shopping this summer so I told myself that I would mostly shop for workout clothes since there's Adidas, Nike and Under Armor outlet stores. As you can probably guess, that didn't happen.

Shorts: Adidas Sports Bra: Nike

Together the Adidas shorts were originally $53 but I got them for under $18. The original sales price for the sports bra was $35, it was then marked down to $24.99 but I got it for $12.50. This is probably the least amount of money I've ever spent on a sports bra, so that's exciting.

The best deal I found all day had to have been at Polo Ralph Lauren. While we were shopping my sisters decided they were all going to wear white shorts for bid day. Since I didn't own any white shorts that became my goal for the day. We went to American Eagle where everything was 50% off, but I walked out empty handed. Then we tried the Gap, their entire store was also 50% off, but there were not any white shorts. Before hanging my head in defeat I tried Polo. I thought that this was a long shot since they are usually out of my budget and they weren't having a ridiculous sale like many of the other stores, but thank heavens I tried.

Shorts: Polo Ralph Lauren

 There were only two pairs of white shorts and luckily one of them was my size. They were originally priced at $50 then marked down to $15 but with my student discount I got them for $12.31.
That was a good deal, right!?
