Topshop Clogs

by grechen on March 30, 2010 | SUBSCRIBE | TWITTER | FACEBOOK |

Truthfully, I’m kind of “meh” on these OLLIE 2 clogs at Topshop.us. I think it’s the wood heel; I guess I prefer lighter wood. On the other hand, for $80, I’m sure I could learn to love them ;)

Why do I always need a new cotton tote when warmer weather rolls around? Is it possible to have too many? Ah…the eternal questions of the universe…

And in case you were wondering how to wear these amazing Hussein Chalayan tote bags, the stylists at Totokaelo have, of course, put together THE most perfect outfits EVER.

Lovely Blue Schus for under $100

by grechen on March 30, 2010 | SUBSCRIBE | TWITTER | FACEBOOK |

As I was checking out this fabulous plaid dress via Nanashi (if-i-owned-a-boutique) at Worthwhile, I ran across these sandals by Schu:

and cynical me, I expected them to cost more than twice as much as they do, but they don’t. They’re $79. I love the idea of wearing them with a white or light beige sundress for a bit of fun…

I have really tried to segment Grechen’s Closet and grechenscodes.com recently – leaving Grechen’s Closet for sales & random things I love, and posting only coupon codes at grechenscodes.com. I hate to duplicate posts, because I know a lot of you visit both sites, but in case you don’t…here are some great deals that end either today or over the weekend:

Use code SPRINGCLEANING for $50 off every $250 you spend at Tobi.com. You could get these AMAZING Rachel Comey clogs/sandals if you’re so inclined ;)

Rachel Comey Badger Twist Platform Sandal

Also ending today, use code RINGS at Melissa Joy Manning for 25% off any ring. I’ve longed for one of her rings forever, but sadly, they’re still all out of my price range at the moment. But definitely check it out if you’re a fan of her jewelry.

The Bloomingdale’s Friends & Family coupon code expires on 3/28 – use code FRIENDS or FFMARCH for 20% off your order (there are, of course, some restrictions). Earlier this week, you could also use code HARPERS for an additional 10% off your order, but you’d have to enter that code at the end of checkout – it may still be working, so definitely try it.

P.S. if you want to be kept up to date with the newest coupons I post over at grechenscodes.com, why not subscribe to the daily e-mail of recent posts? Even if you don’t subscribe, DO NOT SHOP ONLINE until you check grechenscodes.com FIRST!! I promise, it will save you money ;)

So, Endless.com is having a sale today only: 30% off select Miz Mooz shoes, and of course, I went to check it out. Honestly, I didn’t find much to love in the sale shoes – well, except this pair: They’re very cute, and I can totally see someone rocking them, but not me…and then…I found [...]

Elevating the sweatpant?

j crew un-sweatpant

Thanks J Crew. I’m now obsessed with these pants. Maybe it’s the name? the luxe terry un-sweatpant… Ordinarily I wouldn’t want to touch these with a 10-foot pole, but a month or so ago, I tried on a pair of James Perse luxe sweatpants that were tapered with elastic at the bottom, and I loved [...]

Thumbnail image for ISO: Sanita Wood Clogs

I’ve been obsessed with these clogs since Brooke (from Fashism) wore them to the New Media Fashion event in Austin a couple of weeks ago: Wouldn’t you be? I immediately went to Sanita’s website to check on how to get my hands on these babies, but unfortunately they don’t sell online (I knew that) and [...]

BOYY bags

It’s definitely Spring!! And BOYY’s hit the nail on the head with the new Franc bag – in RED!! (it actually looks more orange-y to me, which is why I love it so much. Orange is my favorite color for accessories) I’ve been posting about Jesse and Wannasiri’s lovely creations since they started in 2006, [...]

I’ve long been a fan of Shopbop’s Bop Basics line for affordable, really great tees, leggings and other fabulous stuff, and I was really pleased to learn today that Creatures of Comfort has launched their own “basics” line as well (via Nanashi at if-i-owned-a-boutique). CoC’s line is great, and definitely in keeping with their aesthetic, [...]

Things I *heart* at Shopbop

joie rock steady fringe wedges

This is NOT in lieu of my “favorite things” post I owe to Sophie (I promise, it’s coming!! I actually made a video a week ago, but after watching it again, I didn’t like it, so I have to re-think my post), it’s just a fun peek into thing’s I’ve “hearted” at Shopbop. I don’t [...]

I think No.6 has been making clothing for a few seasons now, but it’s really never been readily available online. But today in Steven Alan’s new arrivals, there are several amazing silk pieces by No.6. My MOST FAVORITE DRESS ever is this one: and how fabulous would it look with these No.6 clogs??

Rodarte X Repetto

rodarte x repetto

I’ve had these in the queue to post for ages (or at least since they surfaced at Opening Ceremony), but they’re not clogs, so they kept getting pushed down the list This pair of collaborative Repetto ballet flats by Rodarte are lovely, but not worth the price tag IMO. I do think Repetto BB flats [...]

Thumbnail image for 20% off sale at opening ceremony

Opening Ceremony has just marked down sale items at additional 20% – bringing prices down to extremely reasonable levels (compared to normally out-of-reach). You don’t need a code to take advantage of the sale, but I’d hurry, because a lot of pieces will probably sell out soon. I’ve been stalking this sweater since I saw [...]
