There’s just something about a caramel apple. Depending on where you live you might call it a taffy apple or a candy apple. There might be disagreement about the name – but there’s no disagreement about the taste. And if you’re looking for the ultimate interpretation of that classic treat, look no further than Mrs. Prindables Gourmet Caramel Apples.

Living in Lace

Posted in All Time Favorites, Bras, Lingerie, Underwear at 4:22 am by Deb Savvy

You live in lace all day long.  And all night long, too.  You can lose yourself in lace.  With Wacoal bras. Feminine details and tailoring. Fabulous fit. And a terrific line of coordinated panties, slips and lingerie.

The Wacoal Embrace Lace Underwire Bra is a beautiful balconnette.

The Wacoal Halo Lace Full Figure Underwire Bra is great under t-shirts and sweaters. Oh so pretty – and oh so comfortable.

And for something a bit more dramatic – the Wacoal High Drama Underwire Bra and matching High Drama Hi-Cut Brief Panty are lace perfection!

And my favorite – the Wacoal Undercover Elegance Boyleg Panty

My wardrobe’s been getting me down lately, so I took a surf over to . There’s nothing like a few of their original designs to update the look of every thing else in my closet. And as I always I when I shop there, I am a very happy camper. Today’s selections include this Vesta Skirt in Velvet Brocade which I’ll start wearing the minute it arrives.

And this fabulous number that I’ll have to wait a few weeks to start wearing.  And I have a feeling I’ll be counting the days!

I’m also happy to report that it seems like they’ve recently reduced their prices. My skirts were a STEAL at $128 for the pair. I’ll be counting the days until they arrive. If you’ve never tried their skirts before, I urge to to give them a test run. You would never expect such quality and exquisite workmanship, particularly for these prices. And because they are all totally original designs, you won’t see yourself coming and going on every corner. Love that. A wardrobe refreshing fashion statement for a song.

In Praise of Cashmere Boutique

Posted in Accessories, All Time Favorites, Bargain Hunting, Bathrobes, Cashmere, Gifts under $100, Gloves, Hats, Menswear, Outerwear, Outlet Shopping, Scarves, Shopping Tips, Sweaters, Womenswear at 8:03 pm by Deb Savvy

A couple of weeks ago, I wrote a post about bargain cashmere shopping at Cashmere Boutique (Dreamy-Little-Cashmere-Accessories) The deals were SO fabulous that I just had to do a bit of shopping for myself.

Free Shipping on Orders above $100  

I ordered a black cashmere v-neck ribbed pull over, a pair of black cashmere cable knit socks (on sale for only $33!) and a burgundy v-neck ribbed cardigan.  The cardigan was out of stock.  I knew that when I placed my order, but I liked it so much and the price was so great that I figured it would be worth the wait.  Yesterday, I received an e-mail from Cashmere Boutique informing me that they would no longer be carrying that particular sweater but that they did have one in the same color (and for the same $99 price) with a slightly different neckline.  The e-mail included a picture of the potential replacement and a quick link to add that item to my prior order with one click.  The sweater was cute, but I wasn’t exactly sure I liked the round neck so I decided to think about it for a while.  Today I came home to a message on my voice mail.  I real live person from Cashmere Boutique called me to make sure I had gotten the e-mail and to apologize for being unable to fill my backorder.  She left me a phone number and her direct extension and assured my that were I to need this item quickly for a gift (after all, Hanukkah is less than a week away) that my replacement cardigan would be express shipped at no charge to me.  Unfortunately, personal service like this is pretty uncommon these days – especially when you’re bargain hunting.  I could not possibly be happier with my shopping experience.  The sweater and socks that I did receive were absolutely terrific and of a much higher quality than I expected, particularly for the price.  If you’re shopping for cashmere this holiday season, start at Cashmere Boutique.  You’ll be as impressed as I am.

If you’re in that thirty-teen age range and starting to see dullness and other sign of aging in your face, then you’re just like me.  And I’ve found a solution.  For the last couple of years I’ve been using Remede Super Oxygenating Booster.  I noticed improvements immediately – my skin was smoother and brighter after just a few days of use.  And when I run out of this magic potion, I see the dullness return almost immediately.

 

It retails for $95 and I have searched high and low for a better price. It sells for exactly $95 where ever they carry it. But with this coupon from Beaty.com – you save a bit on your order.

Best Bet for Georg Jensen

Posted in All Time Favorites, Auctions, Great Ideas, Jewelry, Modern Marvels, Shopping Tips, Silver Jewelry at 2:50 am by Deb Savvy

I’m a bit of a Georg Jensen freak.  I’ll admit it.  I am a huge fan of their minimalist silver jewelry, especially pieces from legendary modern designers like Torun and Ditzel.  I also love their serving pieces.  And the watches. And the classic jewelry designs like the grape leaves. Georg Jensen silver, like everything else, has gotten quite expensive.  Here’s one of my best savvy shopping secrets.  True confession:  I buy my Georg Jensen through eBay.  I order from the Skov Larsen eBay Store.

Whatever it is you can get it on eBay! 

They are located in Denmark and are an authorized retailer of Georg Jensen.  At any given time they have as many as a couple of hundred pieces of Jensen jewelry for sale.  Some are posted for auction.  Others are ‘buy it now’.  Depending on the piece, you can save between 20% to 40%, sometimes more.  They also generally have a nice selection of vintage pieces.  If you’re looking for a specific piece, drop them an e-mail.  They’ve had things I wanted in stock even though they had not yet posted them into their eBay store.  They have no other website.  The eBay store is their only on-line outlet.  Check it out.  You’ll thank me later.
