Shopping Makes Me Feel Good....

Today I got up (very tired from playing with my friend L and her amazing four year old son all night) and went to my class. I ususally enjoy myself in that class but today was hot and the day dragged on and on. To reward myself for a hard week of work I treated myself to some shopping. I went back to the sale at Express. I got a pair of pinstripe dress pants regularly $80 for only $50. I got a super-cute going out top to give my Mom for her birthday and a white button up blouse for myself. It is sort of tuxedo stylish. I also hit up Victoria's Secret. I used to work there a few years ago and had accumulate A LOT of stuff from there. Since I haven't worked there (and haven't gotten my discount) I had kind of gotten out of the habit of shopping there. However, as all my female readers know, this stuff does wear out after about 18 months. It is supposed to be handwashed and laid flat to dry, but really, who had time for that? I don't. The time had come to do some replacing. In my opinion undergarments are as important as clothing. The public sees your clothes and not your undergarments, but wearing something spiffy under your clothes really does add to your self confidence. It's like a fun little secret only you know. I really do believe in this.

I am currently wearing my cowgirl pajamas and watching a marathon of The Hills on MTV...yes I am way too old to watch shows like this...but it's a guilty pleasure. Kind of like The Girls Next Door. That show is like a car wreck I can't quit staring at.


Dillard's called me for an interview for a management position. I have mixed feelings about going into retail again. I do love fashion and live for the day each month when my InStyle and Vogue come in the mail. Eventually working my way up being a buyer IS something I think I might like to do. I think I am going to go on the interview on Tuesday or Wednesday and possibly wear my new pants and the white buttom up shirt with black heels. I hope it had cooled down a little by then as that is sort of a cooler weather outfit. I'm not sure about it 100%...black pinstripe pants and a white shirt is a little on the plain side. If it cooled down a good bit I could wear my new turquoise sweater. That would add a lot. It is almost October and I am ready for the weather to cool off.

I'm going to our homecoming game tomorrow. Yay! I am sort of irritated about the time...it is 12:30. I won't really get to sleep in which disapoints me since it is Saturday. Go Gamecocks!!
