Off the Rack: Marshall's Shoe Megashop October Highlights


I had a very successful afternoon of shopping today. First, I stopped at Old Navy where the fall clearance sale is now in full effect (apparently my store is behind the rest of the country according to your tweets). There, I finally snagged that striped sweaterdress I've been obsessed with for just $10.14. Score. I also bought tees for my huz ($4.50 each), some fuchsia capri pants for myself marked down to $9 and a striped dolman sleeve top for $6. Unfortunately I didn't take any photos at Old Navy because when I do, I don't end up actually shopping (it's gotta be one or the other, apparently I can't multitask).

I did, however, snap some pics at my next stop - the Marshalls Shoe Megashop - where I was happy to find what are quite possibly the perfect black flat ankle boots by Steve Madden for just $49.99. I realize these won't appeal to everyone but I am in love. I'm hoping these will be the only boots I need for my upcoming trip to Spain (on account that they've very Euro). Keep reading to see some of the other shoes that stood out to me, great deals on leather boots plus all the trends, from leopard print pumps to loafer pumps. Feel free to share your recent shopping finds/steals in the comments, love hearing what everyone is hunting for!

Lunch Hour Shopping: Save $15 Off $30 at Express




If you've been eying the latest fall fashions from Express, like those amazing colorblock pieces or knock 'em dead red suits, now's a great time to shop. They're doing one of their famous buy-more-save-more deals: Save $15 off $30, $30 off $75 or $75 off $200 with promo code 1791. When I see pieces like the ones from the Express runway (above) it almost makes me wish I still worked in an office just so I could stock up on sharp slacks, sexy pencil skirts and tailored blazers. Of course, even if you don't work in an office, Express has lots to offer - I may take advantage of their buy one, get one half-off sweater sale myself.
