Shopping therapy

It's true. I feel great. Well, I feel crappy about how much money I spent ($300!) but the feeling of liking my body again far far outweighs the guilt...

I started out wanting some new outfits for the conference which is four days long....something in style...but I went a little overboard. I went to Suzy Shier, knowing that I could get super cheap and hip stuff there...and I tried on a gazillion things (the poor attendant!) and ended up with some GREAT outfits. I got:
  • A black blazer
  • Black dress pants
  • Black with stripes dress pants
  • Oatmeal colored dress pants
  • A yellow three-quarter sleeve sweater
  • A green three-quarter sleeve sweater
  • An aqua wrap-around sleeveless shirt
  • An aqua tank top
  • A lime green shirt
  • Suzy Shier discount card

Total = $191...I mean that's alot but for what I got and what I saved, it's awesome...I saved $75 ($50 counting the card).. .Then I went to Transit cuz I needed some pointy shoes...obviously..

  • Black pointy pumps = $41
  • Hit on by a very charming and cute salesman

And on to Bentley....

  • Black shoulder bag = $25
  • Blue and pink change purse = $5

And finally to Claires...

  • Aqua hair scarf = $15
  • Black scarf = $5

You may have noticed that I didn't really need most of what's on those lists...but seriously, I feel great. I tried everything on when I got home and really liked how I looked. It was worth it...I don't need to eat. And I really need the pick me up given how burned out I am from this week..and since the Firefighter has been MIA.

Really, as long as I WEAR the dress pants other than at this conference I am satisfied. So there.
