Clothes Make the Woman

I used to work at Ann Taylor, and I'm not gonna lie, I miss the awesome discounts. A fairly sizable percentage of my paycheck each week went toward clothes, and while that probably wasn't the best tactic to earn a little extra money on the weekends, it did get me a pretty sweet work wardrobe. I still look at it fondly whenever I'm in my walk-in closet ... and then promptly proceed to put on sweats (I now work from home).

If you want to do a little Ann Taylor Loft shopping, you can save 25 percent for a limited time with the code SAVE25 online and in participating stores. (Read more about the offer here, which is valid only at Loft locations.)

Dress for Less

New York & Company always has great deals for women's wardrobe staples, but if you're in the military, a police officer, a teacher, a nurse, an EMT, or a firefighter, you can save even more — an extra 20 percent off any in-store purchase between now and Sunday, Jan. 31. (Can't make it before the end of the month? Don't worry — if you've got a job listed above, you can save 15 percent year-round.) All you have to do is show ID at the counter when checking out. Find the location nearest to you here.

Feet Warmers

Has anyone been outside today? I haven't. Word on the street is that it's 15 or 20 degrees, and that's just wrong. But when I inevitably do have to go outside to live life and stuff, it'd be nice if I owned some cozy boots. No such luck. I could win a $100 Shopbop.com gift card from StyleandInspiration.blogspot.com to buy some, though, and so could you, by going here. Just find your favorite pair of Ugg boots on the site and leave a comment about why you like them, where you'd wear them, and what you'd pair them with. The most creative comment wins! (Entries are due by Jan. 14.)
