One of my fave stores, Reuseit is having a Fall sale and they have awesome deals going on. I did a quick look though and spotted three deals right off that knock my socks off...enjoy!

I wore some new athletic shoes thanks to the fine people at PlanetShoes. Last month they sent me a pair of the "new" New Balance shoes, called NewSky. I already have some New Balance minimalist shoes in black and pink, though not this version and I love them so I was excited to try NewSky. I absolutely adore the blue/grey coloring (I was getting sick of pink) and … [Read more...]
