Marble and stripes

As I have mentioned before, sales are the perfect opportunity to buy things that you weren't willing to pay for the original price before and although you run the risk that you won't find the piece anymore if you do, you can save up a lot. Take these mules as an example that I had been eyeing on Zara. I never found them on the local store that I frequently visit but I had seen them on the online store and I had been stocking them. They weren't extremely expensive (1199 pesos translating to 47 pounds, 55 euros, 59 dollars) but although I really like them they are not the kind of shoe that I will probably be wearing on a daily basis. I decided to wait for the sale and hope for the best. So as soon as the sale season started I checked the online store. Now they were half price but still I was not sure and I decided to wait for the second wave of discounts that I know Zara applies after a couple of weeks. So after waiting to see how much further the price would be reduced and hoping they would still have my size, finally I got online and saw that they were sold for 349 pesos (14 pounds, 16 euros, 17 dollars) and available in my size so I immediately added them on my shopping cart! 
That is probably what you can call a happy ending to a sales hunt ;)

Ruffle and studs

One of my favourite things about January is that it is sales season in stores! I must admit I can become dangerous since I get overexcited about the low prices and buy things that maybe I won't use that much but oh, the adrenaline rush! Last week on a very unplanned, unexpected trip to the mall I was certain I would find something in Zara and of course I did. I got this grey dress that I have been laying eyes on for quite some time almost half price. It was quite cheap in the original price but with the sale I got it for 199 pesos which would translate to 8.5 Euros, 7.4 Pounds, 9.1 US Dollars. 
Not half-bad right? If sale season has already started in your city, take a look. You will definitely find bargains!
