I'm Michelle Cox -- the owner of Lipstick to Crayons. I’m also a Mom to three kids (a teen, tween and toddler), a professional writer (www.michellemcox.com) and a blogger (www.fromthemom.com). And I love to save money (and help you do the same) via frugal deals and steals, coupons and other thrifty practices. My freelance writing business allows me to enjoy the great balance of being a stay-at-home/work-at-home mom, while also making time for blogging, running (ran the Chicago Marathon twice) some amateur photography and scrapbooking. I’m a St. Louis native, although I have lived outside of the city and the state. A few of my passions are amateur photography, scrapbooking and attending kids' sporting events.

retail happy hour 1If you like to shop (don’t we all like to shop?) then you’re going to LOVE Retail Happy Hour!

The concept behind this site is a hoot:  Just like happy hour is to a bar, Retail Happy Hour  gives shoppers rock bottom prices on their favorite designers for a limited amount of time.  The site aims to ease buyer’s remorse by running private, seven-day sales on women’s contemporary fashion, beauty and other goods at up to 75% off. Retail Happy Hour debuted in August with sales on such notable designers as Single, L Space, ABS, Hale Bob, Leigh & Luca, Jenny Han and many more.

This week, Retail Happy Hour is featuring:

  • Single Dress- current stock at 50% off full retail price at Neimans, Saks etc. (celebs love this line)
  • Alison Raffaele Cosmetics- amazing mineral makeup- lipsticks and eyeshadows all on sale for under $10
  • Dream Culture clothing  is 60% off
  • Tracy Matthews Designs- gorgeous jewelry at up to 75% off (celebs love this line, too).
  • Rashel Karlin Jewelry- Very Unique pieces- great for the holidays at 60% off

Retail Happy Hour also produces original editorial content for the site out of a desire to create a place where shoppers will not only gather for great fashion at steeply reduced prices, but for information on all things fashion-related. The editorial content will feature styling tips, expert advice, how to’s, designer interviews and behind the scenes videos.

You can shop Retail Happy Hour without registering, or you can become a member (at no cost) and set profile preferences (sizes etc.) Go check it out — it’s the best kind of happy hour, and it doesn’t come with a hangover!
