A Pretty Penny

Shirt: H&M (this shirt but in lime) (similar here) / Blazer: H&M (on clearance) (similar here) / Pants:   H&M (dark blue) / Boots: H&M / Necklace: Forever 21 / Earrings: H&M, old (similar here) / Bag: Amazon (dream bag) / Nails: Lacquered Up by Essie (buy cheaper here) / Lips: Aloe Vera Mood lipstick green color (Amazon)

By now you probably think, “man, Sara shops a lot at H&M and Forever 21.” Yes, I’ll admit I do. It is because I feel like I can get 10 shirts for the same price as 1 shirt at more expensive places. Of course I am in love with J Crew, Anthropology and many other stores. I keep telling myself one day I’ll shop there all the time. Life is full of dreams.

Let me share some shopping secrets with you:

1) I am obsessed with painting my nails, and of course my all time favorite polish is Essie. Which is $8.00 a bottle. With how much I paint my nails and how much I love Essie I had to find a cheaper alternative. That is when I stumbled upon Head2Toe Beauty. They sell Essie polish for half price! And if you are an Essie fanatic like I am that is a great price!

2) Like any girl who loves fashion of course some of the things you happen to love also happen to be the most expensive. I saw this Celine bag and immediately fell in love with it. Of course I was shocked to find out it was thousands of dollars. Of course I don’t have thousands of dollars on hand so I went for the next best thing. Similarity. If you are a Celine lover like me check out this bag. I ordered it a couple weeks ago and have loved it ever since. It fits a ton in it and I will definitely be buying again. 

3) I have to talk about the lipstick I am wearing real fast. I bought it ages ago on a recommendation from one of my friends. I ordered this green lipstick off of Amazon and haven’t worn it a ton. Lately I decided to give it a second try and love it! It is called ‘mood lipstick’ and is suppose to essentially be a perfect match of you, and I love the shade it turned out.

If you have any shopping secrets or favorite products for me I would love to hear them!
