This is hilarious to me, because I just reached the same milestone. I always have a complex about buying clothes because I think of starving children in Africa or single mom's in our local family homeless shelter, and I could never justify buying clothes.
But recently I did. I bought a pair of coral shoes, which I definitely can't wear with anything. But I love them...
I still struggle with feeling guilty about it and wanting to return them. Which is why I haven't taken the tags off... haha..
But at least I've gotten over the first hurdle, actually buying something!
typo-- can't wear with EVERYTHING, not anything, lol... man, that would really make me feel bad.
Ah, Ashley, you feel my joy. LOL Don't return those coral beauties!
I have a pair of shiny red heels and I love them. They make me feel sassy and sometimes you need to feel sassy. I know you will enjoy yours.
Yay! Awesome! I love my red polka dot shoes =)
Espresso, Check.
Handbag, Check.
Shoes, Check.
My work is done here. Next!
Awesome shoes, Colleen! You should totally wear them to your next book signing.
I tend to buy books with any spare money, but one thing that I'm dying to buy someday is a dress. Not a Wal-Mart summer dress, but a real gala, 1800s, Southern belle type dress. The only problems with that desire is that 1) I have no occasions to wear such an insanely gorgeous dress to, 2) I could probably buy a hundred books for the price of a dress like that!
For now I'll stick to the books. :)
Hannah, I have to warn you. In college, I wanted this pale pink party lacy dress so bad. It was to die for and it looked so good on me (of course, it was a size 2). Anyway, I am not a sorority kind of chick, but I accepted a date to a frat party over at the beach. Some shindig where I got to wear this gorgeous dress.
We even ate at the Shadowbrook, which is like one of the most romantic restaurants ever.
WORST> NIGHT. OF. MY. LIFE. Let the dress go.
It is very hard for me to spend big money on items. When we go out to eat, I will almost always choose one of the more inexpensive items on the menu. Maybe it comes from growing up financially disadvantaged. I have to say, though, that Kohl's has some great shoe sales.
Kristin, you crack me up! Loved your response on the gorgeous dress! The last time I wore a size two, I was 10.
It's hard for me to buy clothes for myself. I LOVE to buy for the grandkids. But if I see something I really love, I'll get it--providing the price isn't too high.
I forgot to say I love those shoes, Colleen!
I LOVE red shoes! :)
Red is a neutral. They give outfits a "pop" of color that works! I'm so proud of you! LOL.
I love red shoes and have had pairs for years.
I have a super funny story about my mother-in-law, Imy, (91) who when she was a little girl wanted red shoes so much, she painted hers with red barn paint. And she still insists that they were awesome, despite her mother going ballistic!
I've always wanted to spend money to travel to England or someplace I've read about but have never been.
I also wish I could just buy myself a good, sturdy purse, but I keep changing my mind and taking them back.
I glad you finally got your dream shoes. Its really nice that you got them for $40 on sale at Kohl's
