ugh. I shouldn't have, but I've been wanting a cream bag... and I just love this kooba... and the koobas have been flying off the shelves at bluefly (plus part of my purchase goes to stylethread, right?) is that enough justification? oh and it looks nice with the jacket I ordered too...

D- FYI that jacket was marked down even more in the store yesterday. It was marked $89 and an extra 30% off of that- if you ordered it you might want to see if you can get a price adjustment or something.

oh gosh - thanks for letting me know - I should run by anthro then (but that can be dangerous - I'll just have to focus on the jacket only) anyway - I could pick one up at the store and return the other one when it comes in too. I wonder if they will do a price adjustment in the store?

Just this dress from Anthro:

ETA: Nevermind, my order was cancelled cause it was out of stock

I picked up a beautiful pair of black wool theory trousers at Nordstrom Rack. Retail was $230 and I got them for $60. I think this is them:

I just want to preface this, for my fellow shopping ban girls, by saying that the only thing I spent my own money on was bras & the dress for two weddings which was a necessity. The rest of what I got, my lovely boyfriend bought for me!

From Delias:

The Camo pants

From Express:

But in Capri style & choc. brown

From VS:

Infinity Edge bra in warm nude

Sweet Embrace bra in pink

From Nine West:

I also got a knee length Camo skirt & pink beaded necklace from Nordstrom.

Some cute green cat-eye sunglasses from Anthro shaped sort of like these:

Women's Black Oval Cat's Eye Sunglasses but they have wider ear post thingies and are a tealish green on the outside and light green on the inside. I them.

I hit the jackpot yesterday at Rugged Wearhouse--they had a rack of Sanctuary stuff for 12.99 a piece. I tried on almost everything that was anywhere near my size. I left with a pair of bermudas, some denim gauchos, the most awesome black polo, and a cute skirt.

theotherjess · Chanel

Xhilaration Calista Sling with Bow - Brown Wayyy cuter in person and suprisingly comfy.

scarf-- I promise it's not tie dyed, it just looks that way.

And some green dangly earrings. The picture turned out horribly so I'm not even going to post it.

i'm so glad you got the pumas. i love them so much and will probably end up getting a black pair soon.

halleybird · Hermes

travelgirl - I got them at the Puma store, but Nordstrom and Zappos carry them.

honey- thanks for the rec. I was afraid they were too sneakery, but they really do look like ballet flats on! I am reaaaallly tempted to get the blue ones now.
