GoJane=amazing

I love gojane.com, I constantly check their inventory of shoes because I've gotten a LOT of good deals from their in the past. I highly recommend it to everyone! Here are a just a few examples of what I've bought:

And I've never payed more than $50/pair including shipping! Also while you're there check out their eyeshadow palettes- they're great when used in combo with Urban Decay's Eye Primer Potion :)

Urban Decay Eye Primer Potion

So I'm not really the kind of girl that feels the need to spend oodles of cash on make-up. I'm pretty satisfied with the drugstore stuff. But there's always been one product I could never chinse out, and could hardly even wear at all for that matter.....eyeshadow! I have oily eyelids so my eyeshadow always creases and basically disappears/ looks like crap.

But not anymore! Thanks to this magical stuff:

This is Urban Decay's Eye Primer Potion (mine's in "Eden"- or nude if you will)

It makes my eyeshadow stay on and look extra-pigmented no matter what brand I'm using!

It's probably the wisest make-up investment I've ever made

and you can find it here or in a Sephora store near you!

Coupon Codes!

Okay so this is a post for online shoppers. The biggest tip I could ever tell you is NEVER forget to look for coupon codes. The easiest way is just to open a new window and google the store's name and coupon code- open a few of these links and see whatchya can find (just make sure they're not expired)! There are also many forums that constantly keep up to date on these like http://www.smartcanucks.ca/ and http://www.retailmenot.com/
Sometimes coupon codes are even listed on the online store's home page!
Coupon codes are also often e-mailed to subscribers so get signing up to you favourite stores' websites!

Also, since I'm talking about coupon codes I happen to have one to share with you all! For those of you Canadians right now until August 15th you can use the code CANADA2011 on http://www.roots.com/ to recieve 25% off red-ticketed items or 20% off original priced items.

Urban Behaviour Sale!

So I don't shop at Urban Behaviour very often, but when I see a sale sign I usually haaave to go in. Well this exact scenario happened the other day, and what did I find?

This awesome peach, lavender and crystal bouquet ring! I couldn't resist it, and then I saw the price tag...

Yes, that right there is a markdown to $1.99! There was tons of jewelry on sale besides this- feather earrings for $3, a larger flower ring for $3, and plenty of bangles on sale as well!

A Shopping anddd Crafting Tip All in One

So I'm sure many of you shop at H&M (how could you not?!) but there's something about this store a notice many people don't pick up on.

Every single season for quite some time now, H&M releases a FREE (yes, FREE) magazine available in all their stores. Even if you don't plan on using it as a shopping guide it also makes the perfect magazine for collages! Orrrr you could read it and then chop it up like I do- best of both worlds!
