Franco Sarto Animal Print booties drastically reduced!!!

Sometimes some of the best markdowns and sales I've landed throughout the years have been from high end stores where I've scored big time bargains by scouring their clearance areas REPEATEDLY... like these Franco Sarto animal print booties that I just ordered from Lord & Taylor online.

A native New Yorker who started my fashion career started in Manhattan in 1985, I often treated myself to window shopping at some of the country's most upscale and luxurious stores, like Lord & Taylor!  The trick here today (now that I'm in a different state) is consistency, and repeatedly scouring the online sales and clearance areas AND knowing your prices! 

These adorable leopard print booties were marked down from $139 to the amazing price of $34.75!!! The booties zip up the side and have a comfortable 1 1/2 inch heel (with a unique, shiny & thin, black stripe that abuts the top of the heel, just beside the animal print)- that lends itself to a day filled with fun or even a full work day where you are on your feet! 

Not typical of most days, today I designed my outfit around my booties, and teamed them up with my long sleeved black tee shirt with mesh sleeves from SkinnyTees (one of my ongoing women's fashion partners that you will find me posting about frequently and offering my followers discounts on their collection with my unique code) and my existing camel colored faux suede leggings for a casual, yet chic outfit! 

Leave me a comment and let me know some of your recent favorite fashion finds!  I would love to compare notes!!!
