I am a closet case.
A terrible shopper who spent $15,000 last year on clothes that are just short of boring. I'm over it.
I'm starting this blog to re-learn how to shop. I want to spend way less money on way better clothes. Establish my own style. Kick my junkie-like addiction to Banana Republic basics.
I think there are a lot of women out there like me, who might enjoy reading this and get something out of it. The rest of you...feel free to point and laugh.

Back from a long weekend!
It was a long weekend for many of us, and since I spent it sick, I also spent it in sweats. Nothing worth documenting. But today I am feeling a bit more alive and I'm back at work, wearing my latest purchase. I am a big fan of the silk blouse as a staple, vs a t-shirt or sweater. Just looks more polished in my opinion. I found this great little top on sale online from Kate Spade and snapped it right up. I paid $128, but it's now down to $75! The real treat came when it arrived in the mail. I had thought the print was flowers when I bought it, then it showed up and turned out to be little pink lips smoking cigarettes! What a fun twist on an otherwise conservative blouse. I love me some Kate Spade.
Since it's gross and snowy here (not the kind that sticks, more like fluffy rain) I paired it with my BR skinny jeans and black Naturalizer boots. We have a dry day on Thursday and I am am going to wear something really spunky to celebrate. I promise!

Love the top. Very cool.
ReplyDeleteTotally in love with this top. It looks super good on you and the print is just too adorable for words. So 1950's and sweet but also sassy.
