i came, i saw, i conquered!

hi everyone! i hope your weekend was awesome, making up for the miserable mondays. i have a huge headache right now =( but i really wanted to make a few posts while i have time right now.

(if you're not interested in my weekend, you can skip this paragraph and straight to shopping-related things.. it's ok, i don't mind.)
so my weekend was pretty much filled with fun in racing, mini-golf, shopping, and hanging out with cool bean friends. if you haven't checked out f1 racing (in boston) yet, you should!! such an adrenaline rush. it is pretty much go karts on steroids. i really wish you get more than one race though. it was $40 for one race + a one day license. another place you should check out is monster mini-golf - a good fun hour for only $7.50 (if you are taller than an avg 11 year old that is, but if you're shorter, it's $6.50!!.. pays to be short here). although groupon is featuring it as a side deal today - 4 admissions for $20! btw, i LOVE groupon. it has a new deal everyday in a variety of cities (off the top of my head: new york, boston, chicago, philadelphia, and more). most of the times the deals are on restaurants and spa services, but aside from the awesome deals they feature, what i love most about this site is that it exposes me to different places i never knew about. anyway, get your monster mini-golf (featured in boston) deal today! it's today only.

not so surprisingly, shopping was also on my weekend's agenda. went to natick mall and express was pretty much the first store i conquered. they are having a sale and taking an additional 40% off!! this is probably my favorite, if not second favorite, store ever. i can always find styles to my liking and contrary to what others think, it is not expensive at all. the main reason is because almost everything always goes on sale. my closet can probably be an express store. there were so many cute tops and sweaters that were on sale. here are some snapshots of what i tried on and ended up buying:

i like the detailing of sequences along the sides of the sweater. puts some bam into a simple outfit!
my very first sweater vest. maybe it's the pattern that attracted me and pulled me in like a magnet.
i love this oversized sweater.. makes you look authoritative. definitely catches attention
hmm normally, i don't like animal prints, but this red jaguar printed sweater makes an outfit pop.

the best part was that they were all $11.99!! ah.. i walked out with a huge smile on my face =) nothing beats the feeling of knowing you got your moneys' worth!
