It’s Free Shipping Day! Online retailers are encouraging customers to finish their holiday shopping onilne by providing them with free shipping - hence "Free Shipping Day." Word up to that. And some Latest Beauty favorites, like Sephora, Urban Outfitters and Target, are getting in on the free shipping action. Along with a boatload of other retailers. And your gifts are guaranteed to arrive by Christmas Eve. Perfect for the procrastinators out there (like me). FreeShippingDay.com has an extensive alphabetical list of participating sites. Now stop procrastinating and start shopping!
Gap is having an awesome deal this weekend: In stores only, you can get any regularly-priced sweater (excluding cashmere) and pajama sets for only $25 each. That means half off or more on some sweaters and the same kind of markdowns on pj sets (the discount is taken at the register). I think pj sets make great gifts and I also think I may have a sweater addiction. I can’t get enough sweaters, even though most of my collection is housed in a box in my closet since I live in a warm climate. And I’m from a warm climate, so who knows where this sweater-love stems from. Probably from not getting to wear many in my life. Anyway. Enough about my sweater issues. The sale is going on now through Sunday, so get thee to a mall! Happy Shopping!
More bargains to be had on the makeup front: Today through December 15th, take 40% Off your order at Tarte.com when you enter the code FF08 at checkout. Check out one of their hugely popular cheek stains - or the adorable Très Cheek gift set!
If you weren’t able to make it to the Old Navy sweater sale this past weekend or if you’re stocked up on sweaters and would rather get a new dress or jeans, then tomorrow is your lucky day! Click on the jpeg to the left, print it out and bring it into the store to receive 40% off a single item. I’m going to be using it on the cashmere hoodie I wanted and waited for in a ridiculously long line for over 30 minutes before finally giving up when the register apparently broke. Redemption!
Here’s another great way to save a little cash without neglecting your holiday shopping list: Starting at 12 noon EST Tuesday, December 9 (that’s tomorrow!) through noon on Wednesday, December 10, you’ll get a whopping 50% Off anything on the Kiss My Face website when you enter the code KMF50 at checkout. Kiss My Face specializes in all-natural cosmetics, skincare and hair products, and this 24-hour sale will give you ample opportunity to load up on awesome-yet-affordable stocking stuffers like this Holiday Lip Gloss Duo, in mouth-watering Cranberry Spice and Vanilla Sugar.
Whether you’re a longtime Bare Escentuals devotee or a newbie who’s been looking for the perfect opportunity to see what all the fuss is about, you’re going to be very excited about this sale: Now through Sunday, enter the code BELUV at checkout on the Bare Escentuals website, and you’ll automatically receive 20% Off your purchase! Even if you’re not in the market for one of their signature foundations, concealers or mineral veils, check out their Prime Time Foundation Primer, their luscious Buxom Lip Polish, or one of their gorgeous seasonal collections. Have fun!
I had never dabbled in the world of Fresh makeup but as Nick (employee extraordinare) showed me around the store, he had me try their lip gloss. This lipgloss has the same ingredients as their Sugar Lip treatment and as I was walking home (nearly two hours after application) I realized that my lips still felt nourished, beautiful and quenched. This is important to note because I apply balm all the time and the fact that several hours passed and I had no need to reapply makes me do back flips.
I’m heading back this weekend to get another gift set for someone on my list (their gift sets are awesome!) and my very own lipgloss. By the way, I already picked up the High Noon bronzer and Twilight Primer yesterday - both of which I love and will give proper reviews to next week.
Don’t miss out on the Fresh Friends and Family discount!!! Through this weekend get 25% off everything in the store. If you’re not in LA, then call the store and ask for Nick - he will make sure you are taken care of, no matter where you are! For all the details, go here. And the store’s phone number: 323-932-2580. Try something new, stock up on faves and have fun!
When you think "cashmere" your thoughts probably don’t automatically go to "Old Navy." But that is a mistake. Because Old Navy actually has a very nice cashmere selection around this time of year. I have a cashmere sweater from ON that I got a few years back that is just as lovely now as it was then and that I continually get complimented on whenever I wear it. I even wore it at Thanksgiving last week.
I bring this all up because this weekend their cashmere selection is on major sale. We’re talking nearly half off. Originally $69.50? Now $35!! That is a STEAL. I’m most definitely picking up a cashmere hoodie for $45 (down from $79.50). And what a lush gift a cashmere sweater would make - ’tis the season! Happy Shopping!
You know how much I love Fresh: Their Soy Face Cleanser is the only face wash I use, their Rose Mask is to-die-for and you can’t beat their Sugar Lip Balm. I’ve been dying to try their Twilight primer and now is the time! And those are only a few of their great products. There is so much more to explore!
**The discount is only available at the The Grove location in Los Angeles. So if you’re in the area, giddyup. If you’re not, then fret not: Phone orders are accepted! But whether you go in person or phone it in, make sure to ask for Nick. He is the wonderful person extending this offer to Latest Beauty readers. Just mention this blog to him and he’ll set you up! For store location and phone number, just click on the Fresh logo below. Happy Shopping!
It’s Thanksgiving on Thursday! Yummy food, time with family, reflection on all I have to be thankful for - it is my favorite holiday of the year! And we all know that along with my fave holiday comes the next day: Black Friday is upon us. Now, for me, Black Friday is my version of hell. Getting up early? No thanks. Pushy crowds? Even worse. But that is just me. Others look forward to Black Friday so they can scoop up some deals and be back home before breakfast. And being a girl all about a bargain, I can appreciate that. But Cyber Monday is more my speed - sitting at home and shopping without being shoved while still scoring a deal? Yes, please. So if you’re a Black Friday fan, here is a site to help navigate your Friday spree. If you’re waiting until Cyber Monday, then this site can help you plan your attack. Until then, Happy Thanksgiving! And then…Happy Shopping!

A good way to start off a Monday is to find out about a good sale to take you through the week. Now through Wednesday (11/19), you can get 25% off J.Crew’s regularly priced shoes and boots if you enter SHOESALE when checking out. I love J.Crew’s shoes, but they are a little expensive for me, so a sale like this is one I like to jump on. If you’re looking for a new pair of pumps or flats or boots or sandals (you get the idea) then now is the time to scoop some up!
Bargain fashion favorite H&M wants to make sure that you see them as "your destination for the most fashionable gifts at the most fabulous prices" this holiday season, and to that end, they’re currently running an awesome Buy 1 Get 1 Free sale!

I am a big fan of the Simply Vera by Vera Wang line at Kohl’s. The collection has a lot of basic black and grey pieces that are great for building a wardrobe. And because it’s Vera Wang, basics always have a slight twist to them to make them structurally interesting. I’ve had my eye on a few pieces and, lucky us, they are on sale for 30 - 50% off through the weekend so now is the time to pounce. And it’s not just apparel - it’s her accessories and shoes too. And pajamas - satin pajamas. This sale is definitely worth checking out!
Huge sale going on over at Urban Outfitters! Tons of great items are marked down, including clothing, shoes and accessories for women and men as well as home furnishings and assorted wacky knickknacks. The sale is going on in stores as well as online, so get on over there any way you can and check out the selection. Here are a few things I found that captured my fancy:
…and nothing shown here is over $30! Hmm, might be a good way to get a jump on holiday shopping!
I am all about the deals today. Old Navy is (already!) clearing out their fall stock with markdowns up to 60% off, so now is the time to bulk up your looks for the season. The color block cardigan Melissa loves? Down to $20. This bauble bracelet I have pictured? $3.99 (from $14.99)! Shoes for $10. Yoga pants for $10. Shirts for $5. I love a good Old Navy sale because you can really get a lot of bang for your buck. The sale is only online, so start clicking. Happy Weekend!
