The $12 Jumpsuit + Tips for Clearance Shopping

Beauties,

I can't tell you all how excited I get when I find incredible pieces on clearance. In fact, I honestly can't remember the last time I paid retail price for anything. I always keep a coupon or promo code in tow and if a coupon can be used on clearance, even better! Late last year, I was visiting my mom and one of our traditions is always to go shopping. We tend to stick to thrift shopping, but sometimes I like to stop into It's Fashion Metro because they have a huge selection at their Goldsboro location. On this trip, I dropped into It's Fashion Metro and found this plaid jumpsuit after only a few minutes. I went into the dressing room and of course, fell in love with it!

It was only $12 and included two of my favorite colors to wear, black and white. I love this jumpsuit so much and I'm a bit surprised that it took me this long to wear it. It can be styled so many ways and it's light enough to take into spring. With this look, I feel like you can never go wrong with adding a pop of color. I added this red moto jacket and booties for the perfect pop.

I took the jumpsuit a few days later and restyled it with high top Chucks, a mustard moto jacket and printed turban. A jumpsuit like this is perfect to add to your wardrobe because you can really do so much with it. Now in getting back to the deals, I am often told that I always tend to find the best prices. The truth is that you don't have to only thrift shop to find the best prices on pieces.

Below are a few tips on how to find great clearance deals:

1. Always head to the back of the store. Most retailers keep full priced items in the front of the store and clearance in the back on purpose. Don't be fooled. You can find in season and out of season pieces on clearance.

2. Ask if there is any additional off. Some retailers will send a coupon for extra off via text or email.

3. Look for the out of season pieces. This week, I had quite a few people drop in to shop for spring break and upcoming cruises. People found shorts and bathing suits for as little as $5.
