UAL (United Apparel Liquidators) is a favorite among the Vandy crowd, with tons of designer deals for a fraction of the cost. This was from a previous post a few months ago... I found jeans that were previously $200 marked down to 50 cents!!! That's right, it's not a typo.... 50 cents for a pair of designer jeans! Boxes of them......
Now I will say it's only skinny jeans and really flared jeans so they're not for everyone, but I think you will also find a ton of other things you may like. I bought a pair of Sanctuary cargo pants for $12.99, previously $140 and two Sanctuary layering tees for $3.99 a piece. UAL is an awesome place to find names such as Alice and Olivia, Vera Wang, Jimmy Choo and other high end designers for deeply discounted prices. Just be ready to dig......

Mafiazo's is one of my favorite casual restaurants. They have some of the best pizza around and it's a super fun, cool place to go drink beer and hang out with a young 20's 30's something crowd mixed in with families with young kids. Pretty much everyone likes pizza and if you go here, you will not be disappointed.

Las Paletas. When I was pregnant, I had to have these incredible Popsicles that two sisters from Mexico make. They have been featured on the Food Network, Southern Living and tons of other major media outlets...their fresh fruit Popsicles are just that good. Flavors like basil and hibiscus may sound strange, but those are two of my favorites. They also, of course, have the regular flavors like strawberry or raspberry. Go try one for yourself, you won't be disappointed!

I hope this post will help you all find some great places to go while you're visiting Nashville. Let me know if you plan on checking any of these out!Imogene and Willie. This super hip boutique is located right here in Nashville and they are known for their tailor made jeans. Go in and pick out your style, then they fit them specifically for your body. They have been featured in numerous magazines and the store is really cool since they actually work out of an old gas station on 12th Ave. South. The jeans start at $225 but I found a few things in there that are less than $100!
These really cute tees are usually $55 but they are half off right now. I got mine for only $27!
These wool caps for men and women have their logo on them and have leather adjustable straps.
Go buy these for yourself at Imogene and Willie!
