Hello, Latest Beauty-iers!  I have been absent from the blog these past few days because my mom and friend were visiting.  It was so great spending time with my mama!  We had a lot of fun and I have to share this shopping story with you. The three of us ladies took a trip up to Santa Barbara for a day and did some shopping on State Street.  We happened upon an Anthropologie and found these awesome Sidewinder flats.  They were on sale for $39 (originally $78), so needless to say we ALL got a pair.  They are super comfy and go with everything.  The story doesn't end there though!  Once back in LA we waltzed into the Anthropologie at The Grove and happened upon the same flats we already bought.  Curious, my mom turned over the flat to see if they were on sale there as well.  Imagine her (and our) shock when the ticket price said $118!!  Yowza!!  How crazy is that??  The shoes not being on sale wasn't such a surprise, but the fact that they had been obscenely marked up from the original price (the $78 price that is even listed on the website) was quite surprising.  Our $39 purchase suddenly seemed like quite the steal.  Lesson learned?  It pays to shop around!
