Great Stuff by Paul

The World in a Warehouse.

"We have literally thousands of unique items from China, England, France, Germany, Holland and other places. Many are over 100 years old or more."

I found these sap buckets (10 bucks each!) I am such a sucker for sap buckets.


But they also had really cheap chinese benches from the 20s and all sorts of cooolllll junk.

More affordable art

I need more art like I need more clothes. I literally have piles of prints, photographs, and collages that I have bought or collected over the years. I even have framed art stacked up in a corner. The girl at the frame shop says I am addicted (and not alone, apparently.) But at these prices how can you resist? This print below is $19.99 at Thumb Tack Press



I found this site through Shop, etc. which is like Domino and Lucky combined. At first I find it hard to read, but it is so jam packed full of cool shit I think it's worth slogging through.

Lulu's fashion lounge

This one via my latina sistah Cynthia. Lulu's fashion lounge.

Much like wet seal, much like Charlotte Russe, cute, cheap, teeny-bopper clothes that even us 40 year olds can wear.

I myself am partial to this peacock shirt. $17.50!

Zappos, free shipping both ways

You know, nothing kills an online purchase like shipping fees. Tonight I found some pants at smart bargains for 10 and 14 dollars respectively. The shipping was 8.95, and I abandoned my cart. I mean think about it, between sales tax and shipping, you can easily spend another 20% on your purchase, in effect, wiping out your discount!

But then, I remembered those red Roxy maryjanes I posted about the other day, so I went and got them at Zappos, which has free shipping both ways. There wasn't an expiration date on the free shipping offer, so maybe it's a permanent feature. I hope so.

Mamma likes these red shoes

I first spied them at Delias for $34. You can get them at shoes.com for $35.99, but you get free shipping.

Threadless finally does kids shirts

Threadless is finally doing kids shirts, and they are having one of their famous $10 sales!

Rediscover Wet Seal

Wet Seal has been around for a while. There is one on Telegraph, but I never really shopped there because the clothes were hideous. However, I recently let my fingers do the walking, and I checked out their website. Looked like the same clothes as forever21, only with different fabric. I did some digging, and sure enough, Wet Seal has the same buyers as forever21! It's like double the inventory of forever21. The prices are great. Look at this dress, only 19.50! The same cut at anthropologie is well over 100 dollars. And the anthropologie dress is only slightly more well-made.
