Sale alert! Check out this empire waist dress from G by GUESS – called the Goddess Dress – perfect dressed down with a chunky necklace and flip flops or dressed up with some nicer jewelry and heels. The best part is the price – $9.98 down from $44.50.

Two major fall trends are the one-shoulder look and ruffles – so why not combine them with this adorable ruffled, one-shoulder top from Old Navy. It comes in solids and prints (though purple is a very hot color!) and is on sale for $6 – down from $17.50.

It may be hot as all heck here in Louisiana, but I know that nicer weather is just around the corner. When it arrives, I’ll be prepared, because one of my favorite things to shop for is coats. I’m liking this Drop Waist Trench Coat from Nordstrom, it has a slightly gathered waist to create some volume at the bottom, but still has nice clean lines. It is 60% off – down to $62.90 from $158. Squee!
