Using Your Clothes & Jewelry to Express Yourself
By rdelp
Usually, I’m the kind of gal who prefers jeans and t-shirts. I like to keep things comfortable and casual. I may swap out my t-shirt for a nice tank top every once in a while, but nothing too drastic. One element I always consider is jewelry. I won’t leave home without my diamond stud earrings and my pendant necklace. As an active individual this style suites my needs perfectly. I like to think of it as a classier version of casual.
Sometimes, however, I need to express myself a little more creatively with my jewelry and clothing. I tend to have the urge to make a statement and turn heads. One way I’ve found I can make different statements on a budget, is by using Fashion Bug coupons. It’s the best way to bargain hunt and be ahead of the rest.
I don’t like to pay full price for anything, and enjoy watching out for sales. When I have a coupon, it gives me a thrill and I usually treat it as if it’s cash I have to spend. I particularly love the ones that give you a discount off your entire purchase at any one store, for example $10 or $20 off a purchase of a particular amount. It’s so much better than just putting particular trends or items on sale. It gives me the freedom to pick out clothing, jewelry and accessories that I might not consider buying at full price.
My most recent purchase was a camisole set that is comfy and perfect for summer, and of course, I had a coupon! Before that purchase, I used a discount on a few dress shirts for my boyfriend, which were on sale and ended up costing less than the price of one at regular price!
I don’t consider myself a shop-a-holic, because I can’t be happy with my purchases unless I find it on sale. I usually don’t buy something unless I find a coupon for the store I’m shopping in. I love a good deal when I see one because it helps me to express myself and since I’m always on the hunt for a bargain I don’t really ever feel guilty.
Well, I guess I will check my inbox to see I’ve gotten any new Lane Bryant coupons from my favorite retailers. Now I have the urge to buy something new, maybe I will pick up something with bows on it?

Jewelry is one of my favorite ways to express myself... Thankfully, they're not always that expensive! The necklace in the top picture is beautiful!
