I stopped by Target this weekend to buy some cute little boots for Brooke. Brooke got her first real pair of shoes on Wednesday and while I was waiting in line at Nordstrom to pay for them, I was looking at the Ugg boots for girls. Asking if they had some for toddlers, the salesperson said yes, for $90.00. Well.... this mama doesn't pay $90.00 for shoes for a one year old. I just don't see the sense in that, but I knew I wanted to find some cute little boots for her anyway. So, I surfed the web and found a cute pair at Target for $14.99 and was really excited to buy them. Who knew that shopping for a girl would be THIS much fun? Here she is sporting her new boots...
You know how Target is. You go to buy one thing, and you walk out with 5. I was walking towards the checkout when I noticed a jeans rack with these jeans.

I HEART these jeans! Levi's makes them - they are the Denizen brand and cost only $24.99 (though I just discovered that they are on sale for $19.99 online today). They fit perfectly and I love the way they feel - the mid rise is just perfect - and they're boot cut which I love! Comfort is key for me these days, I'm finding lately that a woman (or a man, for that matter) cannot own too many pairs of jeans. I found some great looking dark Joes Jeans at Loehman's a few weeks ago for $79.00. Made with a very tall woman in mind, I had to pay $9.00 to have them hemmed, but a pair of good jeans for $88.00 is worth every penny!
I do love to find good buys. My friend, Kerri, has always delighted in finding unique items at a good price - she enjoys the hunt. Anyone can walk into a store and pay $175.00 for a good pair of jeans, but it takes a real expert to hunt for a good pair of jeans for $75.00. I tend to agree with her (when I have the time).
