There were a ton of sales going on, however I only found a few things. (Well, I did buy some new lingerie, however I'm not showing that.) This tee is a great navy blue and silver glitz stripe. The glitz doesn't show up in the pic, but it is subtle and perfect.
Ok, to be totally honest also, I've gained 12 lbs since our vacation in early October, so with vacation, all the company and Christmas, I ate myself into oblivion. I still want to look good and be comfortable while I loose this weight, so I needed some new pants to tide me over. ( I hate that I had to buy one size larger, however when pants are too tight, I think you look bigger and if they are tight, I am just miserable. So swallow the pride and buy some that fit. A new pair of jeans and a new pair of black slacks.
Just for the record, I had a salad for lunch after all this shopping and a glass of iced tea. I am definitely going to loose this weight and fast I hope.
On the way home I stopped by a GW close to the mall, and I was thrilled that I found these 6 silver goblets. They were $2.99 ea. and then 25% off.
DH is taking me to dinner tonight and I think I will wear my jeans and my new Tee. It's always fun to have something new, just makes you feel special.
Thanks for stopping by, I always look forward to your visits.

The T-s look really nice as well as the new pants. The goblets were a special find. I, too, went to GW but didn't find anything that special. It was pretty picked thru since Sat. was their 50% off. Thanks for sharing.
Great choices Marty...I love the nautical look of those shirts!
And your goblets...very, very pretty!
Hugs,
Cindy
P.S. can't wait to get out there!
Cute clothes! I know how it is with gaining weight over the holidays. I'm sure you're not alone! Good luck with your diet. With the warmer weather coming up, that will be good motivation.
Love the tops and that they are blue and white. A bit fancier than a plain t too.
Love the tops! I'm always so envious of people who can wear vertical stripes.
And I 'm nuts about those goblets! Our GW is so horrible. Just. So. Horrible.
Marty, Very nice finds, especially detail on the cute jeans and glitz-glam tee shirts. Enjoy your date night! ~CJ
I love anything with a stripe on it, you will look adorable in your cute jeans and Tshirt!! You are a styling lady, Marty,

Add me to the list of stripe lovers...lol! Love your new finds. Your silver goblets are beautiful. Enjoy the new clothes! xo ~Liz
Marty , I love your new clothes. I started the weight watchers program last Thursday. I am excited that I have lost five pounds so far! Weight Watchers is the only diet that works for me, because I can eat anything I want as long as I stick to my daily point allotment!
You have a knack for finding all things silver at the GW!!!
Cute clothes!
Looks like great clothes and wow on the goblets!
Like the tops! I need to finish cleaning out my clothes to see what I need. Nice deal on the goblets. Looks like you had a successful shopping day.
Enjoy your evening.
Those are some great new sassy clothes Marty! I have not bought new clothes in ages. I always get paint on everything!;) I am LOVE with your new goblets!
Love the new duds! Enjoy your fun evening!

Love your new purchases, Marty! Those goblets were a find, weren't they??!! I have to tell you that you are such a perfect hostess for your TTT. xoxo
Everything is so cute, Marty! I hear stripes are very IN this year! Love the goblets, too!
XO,
Jane
I love navy & white together and that tee is adorable! I know what you mean about eating into oblivion! I have been doing more than my share of that lately. Your excursion whetted my appetite for some shopping! I have such a hard time finding things that fit well...I'm a petite (height) and "curvaceous" (or however you spell that). When God made me I hope he threw the mold away because I'd hate for anybody else to have as much trouble as me finding things that fit in all the right places. Love the goblets...you are one lucky lady when it comes to GW shopping!
I love the thrifty goblets!! So fun to get a little retail therapy too!!
Hi marty,
Your silver goblets are beautiful!

I have been going through my clothes and purging. It sure feels good and then I will probably buy a couple of "filler" pieces,too. Love your goblets- xo Diana
Stripes are certainly big this year..love them..always a classic. Your GW find is outstanding!!...Talk about bling!!
Hi Marty! I am posting with you for the first time. Altho, not the first time I have visited yur blog!:)I love your retail therapy post! Those are the exact things I would be looking for..so I need to get out there this weekend and fast! Have a great week.Sunny (Dianna) ps your style is exquisite!
Cute clothes! And what a bargain on the beautiful goblets! Thanks for sharing, Marty!
Almost every top I own is stripes....I love them in any color and any style....I like the square neckline....Most of mine are boat neck which causes you to wear a strapless bra....You don't want to know how I didn't realize at the grocery store that mine had slipped down around my waist....I stood complaining to the store manager about something I was unhappy about....the deli I think....and I wondered why she kept looking at my waist....When I got home I discovered the big bulge of bra and bare boobs.....it was very embarrassing even in the privacy of my own home....
I got one new top today too, Marty! I love it. Retail therapy is WONDERFUL! Love your tops and pants, you will look great! Hope you had a nice dinner OUT! XO, pinky
Cute jeans Marty! A little retail therapy is so fun!
Marty... Cute tops... I see that you are a *stripe girl* too. Is it our age? Or, our love? My kids give me the worse time..."Mom, do you ALWAYS have to buy every top with stripes"? Yeppers... I love them! So there. Or they will say "It's SO YOU"... I'm with you on the stripes. Have a great week. xoso Sandy
Well, I am pea green with envy over those lovely silver goblets! And your tops are both adorable. I love square necks also. I can't wear stripes very well. Too darned short ..or something. However, now that I see yours..I might just give them a try again. I live in jeans too and don't like them tight. Why be miserable..right? :)
Those clothes are classic~I have a pair of fat jeans, and when they start feeling tight, I know I have some moderating to do!!
I love retail therapy. Always the best. Love the stripes. hanks for sharing at DIYbyDesign.
Marty, wonderful choices! Yes, we all have gone up a size or two since the holidays! Oh, my! LOL
We will get it back under control. :) The silver goblets are gorgeous! I never find things that pretty at my local GW. Maybe I need to start going more often.
I am loving the stripes! I gained weight over the holidays. It makes me sad because I worked so hard to get it off!
I am loving the stripes. I have a few in my wardrobe. Who needs retail therapy... everyone.
Love your buys.
Love those silvet goblets Marty! What a find that was!
Your tops are so cute and I hope you had a lovely dinner!
♥Rondell
Great choices on the clothes! What a great find on those silver stemware pieces!
Retail therapy- that's a good one! I go out for that quite often! Get's one out for a walk anyway! That's a good enough reason alone!
Great new pieces! Love the detailing on the jeans! Nothing like a little retail therapy! :)
Great GW find, too!
Cute new clothes Marty. You are so tiny, I believe you could gain weight without looking overweight. Those goblets are gorgeous - what a deal! laurie
Marty, love your new things! I live in jeans, just so comfortable! Love a little glitz and really like the shirt you selected.
Can't go wrong with silver goblets at that price!!!
Have a great day, Maki
You go, Marty! Look good, feel good! And, another good find at GW! You had a good day!
Hugs, GraceinAZ
