Last week I decided to make a purchase at Urban Outfitters, seeing as how I found the perfect yellow skirt on clearance for $19.99. Well, of course, I had to add two more clearance items to my cart. I mean, I might as well. Right? I'm already paying to ship the one...
Well, imagine my disapointment when I received an e-mail from UO declaring two items had shipped, whereas one was no longer available. I bet you can guess what that one item might be! Why, the yellow skirt, of course. I immediately began scouring Etsy and Ebay for a replacement piece. And I must say, all's well that ends well, because I ended up finding this lovely skirt from Nearest Dearest Vintage on Etsy. And- the Urban Outfitters skirt wasn't even plaid! I love life's little remedies. Truly.
Lately I've been carrying around clutches. A different clutch almost every day, in fact. And I think each time I change a purse, I leave something little behind. A tube of lipstick, a few receipts, even a dollar or few. I'm expecting to be pleasantly surprised next Spring when I find mucho dinero each time I grab a new purse.
I feel no shame in my purse collecting habits... I mean, each one costs me about a dollar, or maybe two. This one I scored 50% off on a Family Day (50% off Wednesdays) at the Salvation Army. Wednesdays are my salvation, 'tis true.
awww...came to listen to your music (I think that was the CD I was refering to btw) and here I am greeted with some fun fashion-thanks! love that yellow skirt-so lovely.
