Maybe a month long shopping thread would be easier than weekly?

I've been putting in long hours at work and just generally having a crappy few months so I treated myself to a book off Amazon.  I know, slow down, big spender!wink

I also bought my neice-to-be (or I guess nephew, but I'm 100% sure it'll be a girl) her first book.  It's a childhood favorite of my brothers and myself.

Month long shopping thread? Haha. I've shopped so little over the past year that it hadn't even registered to post and share the things i've bought. I had a $10 coupon at the Gap. I grabbed this tank and a tangerine lip balm for $1 and change. smile

so far this month:

a new garage door



two reading lamps for my office (in antique brass as they will blend better with my wall color and window treatments)



sandals for summer (on sale on 6PM)



Georgian jewelry (late 1700's-early 1800's)

D- is that first piece a ring or a brooch? It's gorgeous!

GD- love the new bag! I really like the textures with the vibrant color.

Wicked- I hear you on the no shopping. I haven't found anything I particularly want in months either. I still have my $10 Gap GC to use.

Ditto - nice bag GD!

Boots - That is a brooch/pendant.  It has a bale on the back and it's huge -- 2"x1.5".  The large diamond I estimate to be over a carat.  It's 18k gold and enamel with silver and rose cut diamonds. They belonged to the seller's grandmother who came over from Italy, as did the hand-worked 18k filigree and pearl brooch.  The pearl brooch is 3"x2" and if I'm not mistaken, it is actually a hair ornament.  These items date from the late 1700's, but I'm not sure the seller is aware of that.  She is sharing some more items with me before she lists them online tonight - I'm excited! smile

So cool.  I love pieces with a story.

Dicks sporting goods is having a 1/2 off winter jackets sale, so I picked up hubby a new snowboarding jacket. It's black with blue and white pinstripes, but it looks a little greenish in the photo. I thought $80 for a Burton coat was a pretty good deal. Too bad he'll have to wait awhile to wear it.

It has the stretchy material along the back. Also, the website says it's online-only, but I got mine in the store.

I really like the ring - actually kind of reminds me of the skulls in the drawings wicked puts on her blog :)

D- i love the jewelry you picked up! and the lamps...

took advantage of Nordstrom triple points this weekend (and used some of my bonus from work!)

bought this cute little vest from Ted Baker

WS1W_GF17_BELTRIX_00-BLACK_1.jpg

the best part is the back though

and FINALLY after 5 years of hemming and hawwing around (b/c i was having issues with the fact that a wallet could cost as much as a bag) i bought myself a zippy wallet
