The word “sale.” It is both the best and worst word a shopaholic, like myself, can hear. It’s the best because it means you can get your favorite brand for less money. It’s the worst because you’ve already spent all your money. I swear I always stumble upon the best items when it’s not payday Friday, or I just paid my rent. But when I have oodles of cash? I hate everything. Well, this weekend my luck turned around and I not only found a fabulous sale at one of my favorite stores, but I had a gift card! DING! DING! Daily Double! I went into an Express to waste time before meeting my parents for dinner and I saw they were offering 40 percent off their sweaters. It’s about to get “cold” and I work in an ice box, I obviously need new sweaters! However, I didn’t have my gift card. I went back on what I like to refer as my “Shopping Sunday” and I got the adorable pink sweater below and another rougher red and black number that I’m dying to wear with leggings. After the sale and the gift card, I owed a nice $4.00–music to my ears. I was drawn to this sweater because I needed a bubblegum colored one to replace an old one with holes in it. This one is super chic, with the high-low effect, and brings a little fun with the zippers on each side. The neckline is interesting and not stuffy. The whole thing is very carefree–exactly what this stressed out girl needs in her life! Did any of you hit up Express’ sale?
