Labor Day Sales!

I love holiday sales! Check out what I just bought on HauteLook.
HauteLook

It is a Laura Ashley Amberly quilt set.  The retail is $240.  It is on sale today for $90.  The toile-like print won me over with its simplicity and beauty.  The darker side is practical for Izzie rooting about in our bed to snuggle.

Although I have a Queen sized bed, I always order one size up.  One of my silly pet peeves is skimpy bed treatments.  Ordering a larger size allows complete coverage and easier bed making.

Have you found any great bargains this weekend? 

Happy Labor Day all!

  2. Ha! Yes! Izzie is a gray and white Maltepoo who prefers her surroundings coordinate with her coloring.

  3. I am such a sucker for a sale too! I have bought one size up before too, it's really nice for coverlets to fully cover.

    1. Kerry, I wasn't even looking for a new bed treatment but the Sale mentality kicked in. Plus, I always justify it saying, 'I can use it to stage a house'. This one is going on my bed!

  4. That is such a great tip about ordering one size up. My dog is sleeping right by me as I type. Love the furry family members.

  5. Yes, Yes, one size up is the best kept secret!!!! Generally when a bed is featured with bedding for sale, the size has been moved up! That's what gives it the luxurious generous look!!!
    Great buy Linda!

    1. I think it is a good buy too, Patty. My bed treatment has to be virtually cast iron for Izzie and my blog 'office'.

  7. OMG Izzie is so cute Linda! I didn't get to do much shopping at all this weekend but was productive so its a trade off. So cool that you got such a deal on the Laura Ashley bedding. Such a great neutral too so you can mix it up with any coloured sheets whenever you like. Yay Hardwood!! Pics please:)

    1. Thanks Nicole. Izzie is my love. Cowboy surprised me with her a few years ago--it was love at first site! You were very productive over the weekend. I guess, sitting in bed, placing an order kinda-sorta qualifies as getting something accomplished. You got me thinking about sheet colors....

  9. I couldn't agree more! I can't stand bedding that is short on the sides ... but when you already have a king-sized bed, it is tough!!!

    1. Yes, Traci King's are tough. I get creative with layering coverlets. Is a California King much larger than a King?

  10. Staying away from the stores right now......darn new roof! But I've bought some amazing things on HauteLook over the years. Great bargains and this is one of them!!

    1. HauteLook gets too much of my money! I try not to open my daily emails about specials. New roofs are NO FUN. I like to spend money on pretty stuff--not roofs or car repairs.
