Shopping Trip Update
We mostly shopped the clearance racks and managed to come up with some great finds. I ended up with 3 pairs of dress slacks for work, 6 tops, 2 belts and 2 pairs of shoes for $200. I couldn’t believe it. My dress slacks alone were regularly priced at $50 each, so right there tells you I bargain shopped like it was my J-O-B!
The only items I didn’t pick up that I still need are a couple pairs of jeans and a fall/winter coat. I guess we are going to have to plan shopping trip #2.
Girls Shopping Trip
I’m going shopping this evening with one of my girlfriends and I couldn’t be more excited. I’m not sure if being able to hang with my BFF is making me giddy or the fact that we are GOING SHOPPING……
I used to be a shopaholic, but then I gained a ton of weight and shopping with low self-esteem just isn’t as much fun. Well, now that I am down 25 lbs and could use some additions to my wardrobe, I’m all jacked up. I just hope I can contain myself……
Here is what I’m hoping to find:
1. Some great new shoes for work…….Aren’t these Dijon colored shoes from Chadwicks to die for?
2. I also need some new dress slacks for work. I’m thinking something along the lines of these creme colored ones from Chadwicks. I love the waistline. (notice the shoes….)
3. New fall tops that will be used for work and also for casual wear. The ruffles on this shirt from Victoria’s Secret make me drool.
4. And lastly, I need a new fall/winter coat. One that can be worn with my dress slacks for work but also one that can be slapped on over jeans for a casual night out. This coat from Macy’s is all that and a bag of chips
So here’s to great time with my girl and hoping I don’t break the bank
Besties……
One of my best friends happened to be in town last Friday visiting her parents, and so I got the chance to meet her for lunch. I sometimes forget how much I miss her…….but we have that relationship that allows us to jump right back into things as if not a day had gone by that we didn’t see each other.
She has been with me through almost everything I’ve ever experienced in life and she has taught me so much (even though I’m the older, wiser one). Her friendship to me isn’t one big thing – it’s a million little things.
She is a part of my past, will be beside me on my road to the future and she is my key to sanity in an insane world.
Thank you Lindsey for being the best friend any girl could ask for!
Now enjoy these pictures and remember all of the good times we have shared….Love ya!
