Can you believe this was only 4.99? I know. I think the strap that holds the flap to close the bag would be really cute studded, but it's so classic as is.
I also found a shearling vest and a red pencil skirt that fit perfectly. Since I started the blog, I have noticed that I buy a whole lot less and I make much better choices (read: less insanely impulsive decisions at Target when all I needed was toilet paper and lotion and didn't even need to be near the clothing section) about what to buy, already knowing what holes and gaps to fill in my closet. Because I like to buy clothes, and things in general, spending time on the blog and time thinking about getting dressed creatively leads to less time spent buying more things or thinking about getting more things. I'd like to say that means I think very little about things, but that's not true at all. I'm like Ariel in her grotto, looking at all her stuff and hoarding it up, swimming around secretly...or for me, not so secretly, as my fiance counts my pairs of shoes in shock and horror once he notices the fact that they are spilling out of the closet, when I normally tend to be very neat. I stand by my shoes, though. They're not going anywhere. My dog once chewed up 3 pairs, and she was temporarily estranged from the family and relegated to her crate for several hours. I did allow her to come out later, and she skulked back and has never chewed a shoe again. I don't know if I cried; I think she felt my pain and knew she had made a terrible mistake.
Anyways, today I am wearing one of those impulse buys I just could not avoid. Shoes, you know who you are.
