Finished!
Well, I've gotten pretty much all the necessities for the girls - sneakers and shoes, jeans, shirts.. all that fun stuff. Thank God for TJ Maxx and Old Navy. I picked up some great bargains from them and even free shipping from Old Navy (code DENIM). I thought I would have a tough time with Eldest and her sneakers as she really REALLY wanted a pair of etnies. Luckily, she settled for a pair of DCs instead. Cute, aren't they?
Famous Footwear was having a Buy 1 Get 1 Half Off, we looked for another pair for her. Since we didn't happen to find some for her, I somehow managed to find a pair for me instead. Cute, aren't they?
Eldest's at horseback riding camp and I'm off to do laundry while Youngestlounges on the couch with Spongebob. We're all having a great day!

Cute shoes. It's amazing how fast we don't know the "names" of clothing and shoes that the kids Have to Have. I'm not outfitting anyone for school this year, and I didn't even know the names of those cute sneakers.
Glad you're finished with that chore. It can be frustrating and pricey.

I haven't had too much "brand" issue yet. Kylie wanted a pair of Converse All Stars and I found them for $16 on Clearance at Marshalls! Bright orange! She loves them. Justice has som short knock offs that are camophlage, so I got those as well, both birthday presents. I still need to get a good pair for P.E., those wont work. Gee...thanks for reminding me! LOL! (She still has a pair that fits, so that will wait).
Well, we are off to Limited Too! Big Sale and the kid has birthday gift cards. Oh boy.

Bleh. I haven't even thought about back to school shopping! With two teenagers, it's not going to be pretty.

We were out tonight for a bit and I say both the DC's and etnies. The etnis are buy one get one free at Pac Sun right now. Good deal! Of course, Kylie wanted the Vans, not on sale. Still, cheaper than the others without the BOGO. Man shoes are expensive. What size is Miss Mo in now? Kylie is a 7! Whats up with that?
