You owe me...


In the midst of my accupuncture session this morning I had a moment of clarity and a thought popped into my head, "what is your purpose Tali"? I may sound crazy but there's not much else to do but think while lying under a heat lamp with 40 needles in you attempting to center and balance your crazy ass.

Anyway, I had a full blown conversation with myself and told my inner voice that I am a full time working mother (you don't need a desk job to be working- stop judging) a devoted wife and a half ass blogger. While this should be enough to keep my days full I find that I have a little void in my life. I have attempted to start multiple businesses that have all failed. Actually I should correct myself, I never followed through to actually start them but in essence they have failed. I have been a make up artist, a granola maker, a dessert baker and the list goes on. But none of these things are my PASSION. What is it I feel strongly about you ask...scoring a steal. I literally get high off a bargain. For those of you who know me well you know I don't buy cereal without a sale ($7 for a box is just not ok! I don't care how much money you have!), and I have no shame bringing a coupon to Walgreens with me. While my dream is to be an extreme couponer unfortunately I'm not smart enough to do that. If you don't believe me watch the show, they are all math geniuses! My obsession with deals is also seen in the most important place in my apartment, my closet. Now don't get me wrong, I have no problem spending an obscene amount of money on a great pair of shoes but the bulk of my wardrobe is cheap cheap cheap. I love nothing more than spending hours in forever 21 and H&M and walking out with a new wardrobe for $300. And the truth is, I never get compliments on my high end items because everyone and their mother has them. However when I'm wearing a tribal boyfriend cardigan from forever, everyone goes nuts for it.
So here is my latest idea. I'm simply going to post my recent scores on a new Instagram page called Scoop my style and you can all reap the benefits from my discount shopping obsession. While this won't bring any income or anything it will give me something more interesting to do on Instagram than stalk random people that don't even know I exist. You're all smiling because you do the same thing! You're all probably wondering what the fuck is the point of this if you're not getting anything out of it but I disagree. I feel good about myself when I share good finds. I hate nothing more than those bitchy ass girls who keep things like this to themselves. If you know something great is out there in the universe share the wealth!!

Now I'm not saying I'm about to revolutionize the fashion or social media world but every style account I find is super high end. While I give major props for all the amazing outfits these people put together I also feel any asshole can walk into Barney's and buy something sick. No offense.  So here it is ladies...my gift to you!

Follow me on Instagram @scoopmystyle
PS- Now when I come home with lots of yellow bags I can feel like I’m not just shopping, I’m working!
