Hello Mates
Hope you are staying warm.
Last week I met a friend for lunch at The Village in Rochester Hills. This is not a place I normally go, especially to shop as I like to visit smaller, more local boutiques these days. However, after hearing my friend rave about a store called Aeropostale, I decided to give it a try.
Needless to say after filling our bellies with soup and a sandwich at COSI,we walked the few blocks up to the store. Aeropostale is targeted to the teen market but I must say if you are looking for basics such as tanks and tees this is a great place to go. Every week they have certain items on special. I picked up 4 tees for my hubby at the amazing price of $4 a piece, bearing in mind they are of the same quality as Banana Republic.
I, of course, searched the bargain rails for myself and found this fabulous hoodie which is both stylish and warm. It can be worn around the house with comfy leggins or paired with jeans and layered with a tee or tank for extra warmth. I think you will agree a real bargain at $14 reduced from $90.
If you are in the Rochester Hills area give this store the once over, I am sure you will be happy that you did!

Cheerio for now.

Hi Mates
A belated happy new year to you all. Hope 2011 brings lots of new creativity and adventures.
My goals for this blog in 2011 are to bring you more of my fashion finds in Metro Detroit and to interview business owners, musicians and artists about the favorite things in their closets.
My first fashion find of 2011 was Sassy Sheek New, Resale and Consignment Store at 3984 12 Mile Road Berkley, MI 48072. I visited the store for the first time last week and met its vivacious owner, Sylvia Moncrief. She is friendly and enthusiastic about the contents of her store. She personally picks every item and her personal fashion influences play a huge role in her choices.
The store is packed with women's clothing, shoes, purses and jewelry. There are also designer and vintage pieces available. Everything is priced very reasonably with most tops at $5 and purses at $10.
My theme for the week was black and white. I found an awesome dressy black and white see through top from New York and Co and a fabulous green and zebra print bueno vinyl purse which looks very designer and only cost $10 (see below).
I would highly recommend Sassy Sheek for those of you who love resale shopping. It will definitely be added to my list of must shops for the coming year.
Cheerio for now.
