looks like Lulu.

I was running errands yesterday and drove past a store that I usually don't think twice about, Burlington Coat Factory. I thought I might give it a try and see if they had good deals on anything interesting (this is how you become an expert bargain shopper) and so I pulled over and headed in. At first I found just what I expected to find. Lots of tacky rustic things and polyester bedding. 

I was unimpressed until I hit the pillow aisle. Jackpot. Lovely patterns, good colors, lots of options, amazing prices. I was happy and my clients will be too. I got lots of odd looks checking out with 15 pillows but I loved each and every one. 

Here is a sampling of what came home in my car.

 These lovely pillows are a dead ringer for Lulu DK in Chant. On sale for $4.99! I bought 5. The best part is they are reversible. 

Some nubby blue wool numbers that are from the Jonathan Adler Happy Home Collection. $9.99. 


More Jonathan Adler pillows. These went straight to a client who was very excited. $9.99

And a little Greek key action. These came in Brown and Navy. I'm thinking they need a little monogram or something in the middle. 

All I'm saying is maybe Burlington Coat Factory is more than great coats.

  7. I just went there the other day and saw that Lulu DK lookalike (last one left)...now I'm hating myself for not buying it! I did leave with some great Jonathan Adler sheets though - that place really does have some hidden gems.
