Snow Day #2

Blogging to you from the comfort of my couch.

I have a fresh cup of coffee, the television is on and I'm in sweatpants, it doesn't get any better than this (well it could, I'd really prefer to be on a beach somewhere in the sun but hey I'll take a day off too). Unfortunately a PERSONAL day.... over a foot of snow and the office didn't close... REALLY BCF??

Speaking of the beach, I planned a small vacation for DBF and I last night. Florida for a few days in March.... let the countdown begin!

On the shopping front.... I pre-ordered my Madame Butterfly Booties from my favorite SA at Nordies. I can't wait to get them... buttery soft black nappa leather.... SWWWWOOONNN!!

On another note, I've been watching a certain pair on bonanzle for a few days now. After seeing them on an SA at the Horatio boutique and a stylish tPFer I realized how versatile they can be. I'm hoping that the size works for me and that I can finagle a good deal :-P

Christmas Cheer!

Season's Greetings y'all!

It's been months again since my last post.

I've been traveling a bit... Vegas, Florida, NYC.... the usual.

Been purchasing too :-P but I must admit I have been majorly trying to cut back.

Hit up the DVF sample sale in NYC yesterday. Deals to be had for those under a size 10, but for those over be prepared to rummage..... and if you want to try something on... that is a completely different story.

I am currently awaiting the arrival of an HG of mine.... Christian Louboutin ponyhair leopard peanut wedges... ::Swoon::

Update on my last posted wishlist....

I looked back an entry or two and I noticed a wishlist I had posted.

I just felt the need to update (remarks in red)

"I've got my eye on a few things.

Trying to keep my wishlist down..... in no particular order.... things I'd like to find, things that are currently available

1. LV Artsy MM (tried on and still love but I bought a Murakami neverfull GM instead ;-P)
2. CL Poseidon HPs (only willing to buy on sale.... sold out in my size, c'est la vie)
3. CL Jessica wedge boots (grey) (tried on at the boutique...bought from BG....returned.... god my calves are fat!)
4. Vivienne Westwood Anglomania Ariana top (is it just me? quality not that great!)
5. Rick Owens Lilies cotton jersey twisted tank (only had my size on NAP UK...too slow!)
6. Hermes belt (still coveting)
7. LV Stephen Sprouse graffiti leggings (green or pink) (gave up)
8. CL Nitoinimoi ankle boots (grey, blue or black suede) (FOUND!!! black suede...deal of the century...BOOO YEAH!!!)"

Welcome Back!

It's been months since I've written here.

I haven't stopped shopping but I've definitely put you on the back burner.

Great things have happened since I posted last. My promotion to assistant buyer in March, traveling to NYC weekly for work, a vacation to the mountains.

I have an upcoming Vegas trip in September.

I definitely want to get back in the swing of things here.

I missed you blog!

Bal Addiction

I've always been a fan of Balenciaga. When the first Bal bag hit... I don't recall the name... you know the one with the fringey tassels....MK&A had them in 495675983739201745 different colors, I wanted one really bad. Unfortunately at that time I was younger and mostly unemployed (well unemployed in a sense that my small salary for whatever I was doing at the time wasn't going to come anywhere close to paying for that bag). So, I forgot about it, naturally, and moved on.

Fast foward to now..... a few months ago I bought a Floral Giant City with SHW in the Japonaise sateen Floral print.... I think it was a Balenciaga.com exclusive. I love this bag. The shoulder strap, the handles fit perfectly on my shoulder anyway, the size, the functionality, great bag.... would love another one.

Slightly off topic, electric blue is an amazing color for shoes, clothes, bags, you name it. Some day I will get my hands on a pair of Christian Louboutin Electric Blue suede Declics.

Anyway, I was browsing RealDealCollection.com and I saw this Bal clutch and I had to have it. I don't have very many clutches for going out (aside from my vintage ones and my white patent YSL Y-Mail) and this will be peeeerrrrffffeeecccctt!
