Winter Wardrobe Shopping at Cookie's Kids

I have recently discovered a great online shopping site for children's clothing: Cookie's Kids!  I was on a mission to find Winter Wardrobe items for our 2 year old son and all the kiddos in our life.  I am a fan of a good deal and have found quite a few here.  I instinctually peeked at the Clearance section first, but quite honestly found great prices in every department that I browsed though.  In our family (my husband & I combined) we have 7 nephews and 4 nieces that range in age from 1 year to 12 years of age.  I admit that we do our share of "hand me down" clothing among the cousins - which is great for keeping the budget in check.  With the holidays upon us giving the gift of brand new items are in order! To be able to do that and stay within budget is shopping success in my book!

Thanks to Cookie's Kids readers of my blog are entitled to an exclusive discount code to help YOU to succeed with saving some money while you shop!  Enter:  lifebycynthia when you checkout to save 10% off sitewide! Exp 12/21/12

As I mentioned earlier, my primary focus was to get a few winter weather essentials.  Thermal underwear, mittens for possible trips to the snow, pajama sets, jackets - the works!  I was impressed with the variety of very well known brands sold by Cookie's kids and loved the "Cookie's Recommends" feature. Check it out! Make sure not to miss the Alva Kid's sizing guide too. Both were very helpful in my shopping process.



I was drawn to the Twenty Twenty "Trapper" Jacket and ultimately purchased it. I just couldn't pass it up for the price!  My purchase was quickly delivered via USPS and was even MORE wonderful in person!  I am very pleased with my choice.  My husband commented that he wanted an adult sized version for himself!  It really is super stylish!  The hood is removable - I love the added versatility. Here is a picture using the "rollover" feature which zooms in on the image to give you more detail of the item that you are shopping for.

The shopping part was easy but getting this little guy to pose for some photos... not so much. I will have to work on that!  Happy shopping all!
In reading the history of the company I was impressed with the humble beginnings of the company and wanted the share this family success story with you:

In 1972, a man named Cookie and his brother Marvin went into business together. They rented a 1600 square foot store in Queens, fixed it up, bought inventory and opened a day after Thanksgiving with a full stock of holiday toys. When that did well, they introduced clothing items and began to open new stores. Besides the latest fashions the brothers added shoes, toys, backpacks & accessories.  School uniforms are also available now! Cookie's Kids have grown to 7 stores in the NYC area: Bronx, Brooklyn and Jamaica.  AND online at CookiesKids.com!

Dont forget to follow #CookiesKids on facebook to learn more and on Twitter to stay up to date on what's new at Cookie's Kids.

The Newly Renovated Traffic Footwear Store in the Power Plant Mall




Traffic Footwear store is the newest style hub at the Rockwell Center. The store’s sleek and minimalist interior makes the shoes displayed on layers of racks as focal point. Dim lighting contrasts the brightly colored Kartel footwear and patent Frank dress shoes.

The latest Traffic Footwear collection carries elegant and affordable dress shoes made from genuine leather and casual shoes in suede, rubber-soled and upper leather. Frank brogue and lace ups shoes are perfect for both class presentations and client meetings while Kartel sneakers and casual sandals are the perfect alternatives to the usual blacks and browns. Comfort and seamless designs of Traffic Footwear makes it the best choice for men. Traffic Footwear Fall 2011 Collection is available at the newly opened Traffic Store located at the Ground Floor of Power Plant Mall.

I went to the Power Plant Mall yesterday to check out the prices of the leather loafers in the Traffic Store. I was surprised to find out that the prices of the shoes were all below 4,000 PhP. I think they are relatively inexpensive considering the design and the quality. I hope Traffic gives away gift certificates to lucky Fashion PULIS readers very soon.

How Life Drama at the Mall Sets the Stage for Writing

Today's guest blogger is Judy Stone-Goldman, PhD, whose blog, The Reflective Writer, I first wrote about last month during my participation in the 2011 Wordcount Blogathon. I immediately was drawn to Judy's insightful and engaging posts and her blog's focus on finding personal and professional balance through writing.

“Each of us has the potential to construct a better life by uncovering and reflecting on our inner experience,” writes Judy, who spent more than 25 years teaching speech-language pathology and counseling at the University of Washington in Seattle.

Here is her post -- enjoy!
I have been here before. It’s the weekend before a trip, and I am shopping, on deadline. Will I never learn? I purchased a dress for the main event weeks ago, and that left me languid with relief. Unfortunately, I felt so good I forgot about the secondary event. So here I am in the mall, trying on every last pair of light-colored pants that exists in this almost-too-late date of June. 
Shopping brings up a lot for me. I have a long history of shopping failure, or perhaps I should saying fashion failure. Style maven I am not. To go shopping is to evoke a whole library of memories—of shopping and clothes, of appearance and acceptability—memories colored by dread, body despair, low expectations, and complete lack of instinct about what might look good.

I hate to mention my mother and be a cliché of childhood calamity, but she’s behind the scenes in all these memories. She was no more skilled than I in the fashion realm, and she treated my chubby frame caustically, leaving me ashamed as well as clueless. By the time she became more comfortable with style herself and perhaps inclined to act more kindly toward me, I was older and living the clothing stories of my past.

The clothing stories of my past—suddenly they are bombarding me: the date I went on wearing a house robe because I couldn’t figure out what to wear, the events I went to in drab work clothes because I couldn’t imagine myself in any other kind of outfit, the endless cycle of hesitant purchases followed by reluctant returns.

No wonder the shopping expedition is so fraught, so laden, with each small hope hounded by fear. I am never really shopping for my life today. I am shopping for the stories of the past, telling these stories in one version or another, deepening their mythology with each repetition.

I find myself thinking about this as I gallop around the mall, parallel threads competing: defeats of the past versus necessities of the present. Which will win? My memories have turned into a drama, and I have acted in this play before. I even wrote the script.

But if I wrote the script I can rewrite it, and that is what I must do with these stories. I must write them, retell them, give them life on the page instead of life in real life. Writing gives me a space after memory but before reenactment. Writing is my opportunity to rewrite a bit of history so that what was past becomes part of a new future.

Write, retell, reflect, revise, rewrite, recreate. What do I understand about this story? What is important to me to retain and what can I release? How am I different now and how will that affect the story? As I write my way into a new version of the story, I become a combination of the old and the new—I am still myself, still shopping last minute before a trip, but somehow, something is different.

I emerge from the mall triumphant, the white pants in hand. I am balanced, not frazzled; self-accepting, not critical. This is one story I don’t have to escape, and one pair of pants I don’t want to return. I even have time to pick up that bone clutch I forgot I needed.

Questions for Reflection:  How does this blog take you back into memory? What stories do you find yourself retelling and reliving? What stories from your life would you like to rewrite?  

Writing Prompts: “When I read this post, I began remembering ______” (then keep writing); “One story I relive often is ______” (then keep writing); “When I write about a recurring event, I find ______” (then keep writing); “I would like to rewrite my story of ______” (then keep writing).
