So I have a little confession.
I sorta had a little fall off the no shopping wagon. Christmas, my birthday, and winning a few gift cards were the gateway drug, so to speak. So that by the time I did my taxes and got my returns back I was completely jonesing to do some shopping. You can hardly blame me, right?
Right.
I would like to point out that I did set aside some "blow" money. No, not that kind of blow...
Blow, as in "I get to blow it" on whatever.
I, also, set aside some to put in savings, to pay towards credit cards, and then I set some aside for eye glasses & new bras.
How very responsible of me, right?
Right.
Part of my blow money went towards this outfit...
Cardigan: Mossimo Borelo Cardigan, Target
Belt: Target
Tights: Target $3 (old)
Shoes: American Eagle, Payless
Belt: Target
Tights: Target $3 (old)
Shoes: American Eagle, Payless
Ring: Old Navy, $2.99 (old)
Earrings: Old Navy, $2.99 (old)
Belt: Target
Shoes: American Eagle, Payless
Shoes: American Eagle, Payless
I honestly just could not walk away from this dress. So. Adorable!
I actually ended up at Target 3 times before I actually bought it. So I really tried walking away or waiting for a smoking sale.
I figure I'll snag whatever other color I can when it goes on clearance.
I have a mustard sweater & belt I can't wait to wear with this. It was the original outfit I had in mind but they didn't have the sizes I needed.
Tonight after work I am going to the mall to work on getting the new bra(s). I'm not holding my breath that they'll have what I need but Nordstorm's website says they have a few in my size so I'm going to go check it out.
If not, I'll be putting an order in on HerRoom.com. They definitely have what I need but I'm hesitant to go that route since I'm not entirely sure the size I am is the correct size I need in the style I want.
Why everything has to fit differently is beyond me. A size whatever should be a size whatever no matter what. At least that is my opinion. I hate that no matter what you wear (shoes, pants, dresses, bras) just about every brand you try fits differently so you have a handful of sizes you wear. Then on top of that, you have different sizes for each different cut out there. Even in the same brands. It's annoying! Can I just add, that it makes shopping online almost impossible. At least, impossible if you don't want the hassle of having to ship back returns/exchanges.
End rant.
Sorry.
