Crushed

While in Charlotte this past weekend I ventured into Madewell. I always go in there to browse the sale section. Sometimes I can find awesome deals. This time I didn't find anything amazing on sale but they sale Hunter rain boots. I have wanted a pair of Hunter boots all year and my parents were going to get me a pair for Christmas. I thought I should try them on to make sure of the size I needed. Well....I tried on a size 9 and while the foot was plenty roomy, the boots were extremely snug around my calf. I was wearing a pair of jeggings and if I had need to tuck in a thicker pair of pants or corduroys there is no way they would fit. I was really devastated. My friend, Maggie thought I was being a bit dramatic. Maybe I was. Hunter boots were my dream rain boots. Anybody have any suggestions for another style of fabulous rain boots? I would love suggestions.
Maybe my devastation would have lasted longer but I was still really excited over the new coat I had just purchased in Anthropologie. As soon as I saw it on the hanger I was in love. I put it on and felt like Mary Tyler Moore. The coat has a detachable hood. I love it. It was well worth the splurge. Although had I been shopping alone I never would have splurged on it. My shopping pal convinced me that I could afford to splurge on the coat. Here is the beauty.

I hope to start posting outfit photos again by the end of the week. I am having lots of sinus issues so my nose reminds me of Rudolph's. As soon as that subsides I want to post again. I miss blogging.

Earned My Grade 10

I absolutely adore this skirt. I bought it from Anthropologie on sale last year for $30! It has cats on it. I think it is adorable! I love the Anthro sale room. I hate that there is not a store close by. The best sales are always found in the store. I am also really excited to be wearing this necklace. I bought it early last year at Forever 21. It is way too small on its own but I bought a small charm bracelet at a craft store and used that to make the necklace wearable.

I could have definitely used some lipstick or gloss today. My face is looking a little bland! Guess I'll have to keep that in mind tomorrow.

Does anyone else watch Trailer Park Boys? You can stream it on Netflix instant. It is a Canadian TV show and it is hilarious! It is a raunchier Arrested Development in my opinion. (Except it is not about a family.) Maybe the two shows aren't similar at all. I see the similarities though.

I've Got The Blues Outfit #3

There is a lot of blue in this outfit. After seeing the picture I wish I would have worn my brown booties. Oh, well every outfit can't be perfect. I love this skirt. I got it at Anthropologie for $29 it was originally $190. Score! Plus it has kitties on it which I find adorable. The Anthropologie sale room is my favorite place. Too bad I don't live near a store or I would probably shop there more often. Online sale prices usually never get low enough for me to afford.

I've been watching True Blood non-stop via netflix. Now I am halfway through Season 2and I am getting completely burned out on the show. I really want to watch Eastbound and Down but it has been in the "extremely long wait" category for a while now. A friend of mine suggested I watch The Wire but I'm not sure if that's what I want either. I have the cold weather blahs. blah, blah, blah!
