March Haul

I already know that I have problems, I am fully aware and I am dealing with it in my own ways.  I consider the no but, I really did but caved at the sign of a good deal. 

My cousin M constantly points out that I should blog about all the good deals I find on a regular basis but I find it hard to talk about just one product, since I tend to only purchase one or two things a shopping trip. I thought since I want to be more consistent on my Instgram from now on I will post in the moment deals on my instagram (@CheersJennifer) but I will still recap on everything I bought this month here on my blog.

I was definitely more concious of what I was buying this month with my trip now only 3-weeks away but it didn't stop me from shopping to say the least. 

What I bought this month consisted of 

1. Pink Dress Pants from Zara - On Sale for $11.99

2. Stripped Gap Dress - On Sale for $25.99

3. Glitter Back Boots from Winners (by Vince Camuto) - On Sale for $59.99

4. Kate Spade Ipad Case - One Sale for $14.99

This isn't actually for me, but a gift & I just had to share the deal

I'm really happy with my purchases this month & ill try to do an outfit post on each item !

What was your best deal this month ?

Cheers, Jennifer

February Haul

Another month, another haul. I know I should be saving for my potentially huge trip in a couple months but I can't help the sales I really can't and it is a huge issues. I am acutally considering going on a month and a half no buy... 

1. White & Mint Dress from Dynamite - $2.50 originally $49.90

&

2. Beige Blazer from Dynamite - $2.50 originally $42.90

These were steals, from some reason the Dynamite at the Queensborough Landing in New Westminster was having a great sale which was every thing that was $5.00 was buy one get one free so I was able to score these great finds!

3. Baby Blue Blazer from Zara - $29.90 originally $79.90

I was given the corally pink one a while back and when I found this lovely one of sale and I couldn't resist.

4. Beaded Deep Purple from TopShop - $32.00

Does anyone else watch Reign ? Because I do and I am addicted and this dress kind of screamed that century or at least that show.

5. Clarisonic Plus from Shoppers Drugmart - $260.00 (paid $60.00)

I've been debating a Clarisonic of ages and when Shoppers had their spend your point event it was the perfect time to buy 

6. First Aid Beauty Ultra Moisturizer from Sephora- $15.00 

7. Bumblebee Statement Necklace from eBay - $4.00

Can you tell that Spring in on my mind ?

Cheers, Jennifer

What I Bought in Janurary Haul

Happy February!

I'm proud of myself for using my willpower this January & not buy as many things... Not to say I didnt buy anything but its a lot less than last month (December Haul).

1. Target Doughnut Mug $3.99

After seeing this on @Missglamorazzi twitter I knew I had to hunt it down. For those in Vancouver area I mine from the Lansdowne Target in Richmond

2. A calligraphy set from Chapters - $15.00 on sale

One of my friends does calligraphy on her instagram and I fell in love with the idea. I really wanted to try doing it myself and at $15 I couldn't pass it up

3. Brilliant Ideas Notebook from Chapters - $10.00 on sale 

I'm seriously addicted to notebooks. I absolutely adore this one because its navy blue & velvet with golden polkadots, the picture does not do it justice 

4. Gold polkadot scarf from Target - $5.06 on sale

I bought this beacuse it was gold and on sale and who doesn't need a scarf

5. Nail polish remover from Target - $2.75

I tried this the other day and its the weirdest concept. You need to try this out yourself ! Its weird but seriously rocks at taking for darker nail polish I have yet to try it with glitter but will keep you guys posted!

6. First Aid Beauty Facial Radiance Pads from Marshalls - $12.99 usually $28.00

After seeing many youtubers raving about this (mainly @meghanrosette)  I knew I wanted to try this. And I especially knew I had to try it after seeing it at Marshalls for over 50% off.

7. Workout top from American Eagle $7.99 on sale

I just needed this. 

thats all for what I bought in January !

what did you buy ?

Cheers, Jennifer <3

What I Bought in December + Boxing Day Haul

Well this is becoming a pattern isn't it ? I know I have left you guys for a while now and honestly I'm not even sure where the time went... I can't believe we are only a couple days away from 2014! 

I know I said I wouldn't buy anything much in December in my November post but I honestly couldn't resist the deals. Everything I bought this month was on major sale and with being at the mall constantly hunting down the perfect gifts for everyone I found myself shopping for myself more and more. In addition to all that I scored big during Boxing Day and really couldn't say no to anything. 

Cause it's: Work hard, shop harder. Right ?


1. JCREW - Gingham Dress Shirt (sold out)
Originally 59.50, bought for $10.99

this shirt isn't typically my style, but at $10.99 I couldn't say no, plus i always wanted to try that collared shirt under sweater trend.

2. JCREW - Buffalo Check Plaid Wool Peacoat Jacket Red (sold out)

Originally $400, bought for $100

I LOVE THIS. Again its a bit on the bolder side but there is just something about a statement coat that I absolutely adore.

3. American Eagle - Sequin Sweatshirt in Dark Grey

Originally $44.50, bought for $15 

If you can find this, buy it. It looks super cute on and is one of the comfiest sweatshirts I own.

4. American Eagle - Button Back Peplum Shirt in Dark Grey

Originally $39.50, bought for $13 

While you're at Aerie/American Eagle buy this too. If traditional peplums look weird on you like they do on me give this shirt a chance, I love the fit and it is the softest thing.

5.GAP - Eversoft Open-Front Cardigan in Mint

Originally $59.95, bought for $15.99

I ruined my other mint cardigan so this was a must.

6. GAP - Navy Knit Dress (sold out)

Originally $79.95, bought for $23.99

I can never say no to a well made inexpensive dress, this one is great for work and super cute with a belt.

7. GAP - Ultra Skinny Pants in Khaki Green 

Originally $64.95, bought for $16.49

These are super comfy and make your butt look great !

8. GAP - Sparkle Circle-Hem Cardigan in Dark Grey

Originally 59.95, bought for $17.99

I love sparkly things.

9. GAP - Navy Glitter Loafers (sold out online)

Originally 39.95, bought for $9.98

Again, I love sparkly things

10. Banana Republic - Zig-Zag Open Cardigan
Originally $185, bought for $49.98

I bought this solely based on an outfit I saw one of the sales girls were wearing, she looked amazing in it and when I asked if was in store she brought me to the last one in my size, so I took it as fate. 

The next day, I duped her exact outfit. Needless to say I love this sweater.

11. Ever New - Amie Embossed Scuba Dress in Blueberry (in stores only)
Originally $84.99, bought for $34.95

Again, I can never say no to a nice well priced dress!

12. Ever New - Jennifer's Boyfriend Cable Cardi (in stores only)
Originally $89.99, bought for $29.95

After I bought this sweater I saw the name was Jennifer's Boyfriend which was funny cause this was my boyfriend's favourite item.

13. Ever New - Rena Embellished Shoulder Tee (in stores only)
Originally $49.99, bought for $14.95

I love shoulder details, I think it adds so much to a simple shirt.

14. Ever New - Kristie Leather Slipper in Leopard (in stores only)
Originally $79.99, bought for $29.95

I got these to replace my old ones and the cool thing about these is that they are textured

15. Dynamic - Mint Blazer (in outlets)
Originally 42.50, bought for $15

I know this is completely inappropriate for the season but I couldn't help myself. If you can't already tell my favourite colour is mint and I have been looking for it in blazer form for the longest time.

16. Winners - BLISS Rubberizing Mask x2 (in stores)
Originally $38, bought for $14.99

Bought it, tried it, went back for seconds. 

Its funny cause some of the exact same masks were priced at $16.99 and only a couple were priced at $14.99 so naturally I went for the cheaper ones.

17. Marshall's - ST. Tropez Tanning St. Tropez - Self Tan Bronzing Mousse
Originally $38, bought for $19.99

I've heard great things about this product and I always wanted to try it, so I thought why not for half the price.

18. eBay Necklace 

won for $5.99

I bided on this necklaces not thinking I would win, but now seeing it in person now I'm so glad I did. I can really tell this will be a new favourite.

So that's everything Beauty and Fashion related for December, hopefully next month post won't be so large.

CHEERS, 

jennifer :)

October Purchases

Since September I was on a 'no-buy,' naturally in October I overly indulged. This month was filled of all sort of sales, deals and rediscoveries, I really couldn't resist not that I tried. 

To begin with one of my favourite stores, JCREW. 

JCREW can be incredibly expensive but if  your patient you can find wonderful deals. I scored some awesome things in the past and this trip in my opinion was no exception. 

JCREW | CECE PYRAMID-STUDDED BALLET FLATS

Originally $172 CAD, I got these babies on sale, then additional 40% off, and then addition 15% (student discount), they ended up being around $70 CAD

Next, Shoppers Drugmart (Walgreens/Ulta equivalent) was having this great deal which was $20 off $60. But the best part of this deal? it included their nicer makeup. So along with some necessary purchases I got these unnecessary ones:

Dior | Crème de Rose

& less exciting but equally not necessary

L'Oreal | Paris Voluminous Mascara

Next we have ZARA and this purchase I can justify more so because I've been looking for a jacket like this for quite sometime now and couldn't past it up because I knew I would regret not getting it. 

ZARA | Quilted Parka

$99.90

Moving on, we have Kohl's, now I have never bought anything from here and I've only been there a handful of times but after seeing Memoirofapreppymom post a picture of these bow loafers on Instagram, I knew I had to have them 

Kohls | Simply Vera Bow Loafers 

These were sale for $35.99 with an addition 20% off (originally $60). 

After those came the JCREW Factory. They always have good sales here, and they ship duty free to Canada, which is always great. 

I got this shirt on a great deal. During the long weekend here (thanksgiving) they were having 50% off site wide. During the final hours of the 50% off I think someone their mess up because they release an addition discount on all shirts that wasn't suppose to be their until the following day once the 50% deal was over. I know this because as soon as I called in asking why the promo code their site was offering wasn't working it disappeared but not before they honoured the code.

JCREW Factory | Two Pocket Chambray Shirt 

Originally $80 USD (on the Canadian site its $68 on the USD site), addition 50% made it $40 and on top on that I got an extra 30% because of the mistake, making this top only $28  

Next  eBay. I love eBay, I have a handful of things I bought off there, some hits some misses but overall I've been happy with all my purchases. This month I rediscovered my addiction and bought

 eBay | JCREW necklace dupe. 

I adore this, it came better then I expected it too and absolutely love it. 

I won it for $10, if you don't bidding you can always 'buy it now' (thats the link i used)

Overall I would give it an 8/10 the necklace itself is beautiful and very true to picture. The only negative is the clasp, it isn't as smooth as I would like it to be but it can easily be swap out if needed.

Finally Gap, I just bought this dress 2 days ago and already adore it. I love GAP sales and always luck out and the other day was no exception.

GAP | Exposed Zipper Dress in Killer Tomato

This dress was originally $80, on a sale for 24.95 then an extra 30% off so I got it for $17.46 !

This was at the Robson Street location for any Vancouver girls that are interested

I thought it would be cool to show you what I look in the dress because to me it doesn't look like the stock photo.

That's all for my October Purchases,
