On The Rebound...

So after a relatively bad breakup, most girls decide to do one of the following things- cry (a lot), eat (a lot) of chocolate, drink (a lot) of wine, work-out, or shop.  Naturally I've invested my time in some retail therapy as opposed to crying or eating- however, do not rule out the drinking of wine... that happened.

I've recently found comfort in my new Madewell Pemberly Blouse, worth all $118... Hey, it made me feel better. 

I've also invested a small fortune in these....

I was never a fan of Tory Burch... The flats are whatever, I am guilty of owning a pair- and never wearing them because they are sooo damn uncomfortable- and I do own a bag, but it's fabulous and does not have the huge Tory Burch logo on it so it's acceptable- and neither do these boots so they're perfect.  This is the "metallic flat over the knee jack boot"- MY GOD that's a mouth full, but they are wonderful and shiny BUT NOT gaudy.  This is definitely the most expensive gift I would ever buy myself- but again, they make me feel better!

So again ladies- if you're going through a break-up, try to avoid the eating and crying- it will just make you fat and sad, and no one likes a fat sad girl... So go out there, burn a HUGE hole in your pocket- cause once you start looking good again, and your sure to feel good again in no time =).

A Sweater for the Colder Weather

Well holiday season is finally upon us.. and thanksgiving, which happens to be my FAVORITE holiday is just around the corner! I've began a search for the PERFECT holiday sweater- One I can wear to Thanksgiving dinner and not worry about my little pot belly hanging over the top of my pants (HAH who am I kidding, I am in exceptional shape)... One I can curl up in on the couch while watching football (HAH who am I kidding, I have a lot of Project Runway to catch up on) and fall asleep while wrapped up like a little nugget.  And last saturday, when I was half naked running around the streets of New Haven lurking the next victim of my drunken behavior, I found it.  Right there in the J Crew window it was just starring at me in the face and I was taken back quite a bit.

It's not too bulky, it has a little turtle neck but nothing too extreme that I will look like a prude of sorts, a cozy blend of wool and cotton, and the perfect color for my olive skin tone! AH I CAN'T WAIT TO GET IT AND LIVE IN IT! Saturday was truly a monumental evening... I found the perfect sweater and didn't fall down any steps.

Well I'm Just Upset

So I got these boots on Thursday- and when I say boots, I literally mean the cutest things to ever touch my feet.  For real, they were not expensive, something like $85, quality leather, adorable little heel, and a touch of badass... oh hell, I might as well stop torturing all of you and show you a damn picture already, right?

Oh hiiiiii little booties... You're so cute and have little grips on the bottom (perfect for a day like today, shitty and rainy) and have been getting me noticed all day!! "OH MY GOD, I love those boots!" "Wow, cool boots!" "(GASP) WHERE DID YOU GET THOSE!" 

I truly love all the attention, not gonna lie- HOWEVER, these little booties are doing nothing for me but keeping me from falling and forcing me to talk to a plethora of obnoxious strangers all day.  They are the most uncomfortable shoes that I have ever put on my feet- and I ACTUALLY do own a pair of shoes that Lady GaGa would definitely try to steel from me, THAT is how high and uncomfortable they are- so now only imagine how terrible these feel.  I am repeatidly telling myself, pain is beauty, PAIN IS BEAUTY! and have successfully convinced myself that the more i wear them i will simply break them in and they will eventually be comfortable.

An update is sure to be posted in a month or so- just beware, and do not purchase.
