I probably shouldn't have been shopping, but I really needed some shorts. I am glad I did, because I ran into a girl I went to jr. high with -- we were really good friends then, but I haven't seen her since 9th grade!
I also got these in black, which look horrid in this pic, but they're really cute on.
and a polo shirt for my husband and a silvertone bracelet for me from Express, so I could use my coupon.

went to the true religion/kooba sample sale and got
and another pair with white contrast stitching for $65. i'm also stalking the kooba haydon bag in gold. it's this bag
in this color
and i really, really want it.
eta: i'm such a binge buyer. i forgot to add the bag(s) i got this afternoon with yoox code. long story short, i've been obssessed with sissi rossi bags *forever* but haven't really been able to justify the purchase. then was i ready to commit, barney's sold out of the bag in the color i wanted. however thanks to the yoox code i was able to get this bag
in yellow. i also got it in this color, just b/c i'm not sure which one i really want so i figured i decide when i got them. the best part, both bags were 1/4 of the acutal retail price.
My treat for passing the auditing section of the CPA exam and my mini bonus purchase (see personal news section)
my bf is buying this hoodie in empire (blue color) for my b-day in Sept since its on sale and I really want it but am trying to be good. It should come in handy for our vacation too.
honey- i got this sissi rossi bag last weekend from barney's. i love the bag, and i really like the bags you got.
question about the Kooba sale, did they have this clutch?
as for me, i think i'll try to be good for a while since i've been a bit spendy lately.

I just bought 3 Cynthia Steffe tops for a grand total of $45!!!!! I wish I could find pictures, because they are so adorable! One is a tank style with a ribbon around the waist to gather it, one is a cap sleeved knit top w/ a band of lace running around it just under the chest, and the other is a really cool sweater w/ ruffles around the neck and sleeves. I think it's all from the collection currently on bluefly, because I saw some of that same stuff for like 75% of the price on bluefly.
