Keep It Simple

When I was a kid I remember going through the big JCPenney catalogs my grandma would get and circle all the stuff I liked. My grandma loved going shopping and we would ride the bus to the mall together and usually she would buy me clothes from JCPenney. That was where she had a store credit card so it only made sense. She never ordered from the catalog, but she always got the giant 500-page things to leaf through at home. JCPenney, like every other department store, was always about the big whatever-percent-off sales and doorbuster deals (don't really know what that means... busting down the doors to get to the deals?). Recently, I found out that they totally changed their ways and went against this idea all together, instead opting to have constant, simple prices. So, instead of a pair of pants being $19.99 with 20% off if you come before 11am on Presidents' Day and purchase a second pair of equal or lesser value, now, a pair of pants is simply $15 flat, no gimmicks. I never much cared for JCPenney after age, like, 13 when I started wanting to shop for myself, but I really do like this new way of operating.

And, after being linked to the site through Chictopia today, I found that they actually have a few pairs of pretty cool shoes in store.

The top ones clearly just look like YSL Tributes. (This isn't me blaming them. I'm just saying that's why I like them, especially in this gunmetal color. AND ONLY $30!) The middle ones I like cause of the color. And the last ones I just think look awesome and I want to replace my surprisingly resilient and comfortable, but beat up Forever21 ankle boots.

PS. This totally isn't sponsored (Pretty sure I don't get enough traffic for that). I just was kinda suprised I liked this stuff and really made me remember my grandma and her catalogs.

PPS. I found a sick vintage Pendleton skirt that I will be adding to the store soon!
