Merry Christmas to me

So this past weekend I bought myself a couple things for christmas. Well, i bought a couple things and basically made up the excuse that it was for Christmas. Or it could be my post-LSAT gift to myself or it would be my weekend present to myself, i can always find some sort of excuse. Believe it or not, the whole learning self control while shopping thing is going well. There's about a bagillion more things that I wanted. Baby steps, baby steps.

So I've wanted these Tory Burch Reva flats for a lllooonngg time and heard how comfy they are. I decided just to fish out the cash and go for it. It's okay, i don't need to eat. They have them in leopard, black patent, blue patent, orange, green, brown, gold, silver python. I decided to get Navy Blue with the silver buckle, simple is always better with me.


I also bought this Joie "Think of Me" Dress (which is such a stupid name for a piece of clothing) from Bloomingdales. It was a great deal too, on sale plus 25% off then another 15% off that. I love a good deal. I have so many dresses now but i love them, plus i really wanted a red dress.


I definitely can't shop for a while after this little splurge since I have to save up for London and Paris where I can go to Top Shop and Zadig and Voltaire. Until then, I'll longingly look at the next couple things on my Christmas Wishlist.

Alex Woo Little Faith Lotus Blossom necklace. LOVE the diamond studded one, but probably going to get the silver one.


Even if i save all my paychecks i don't think i could afford this Mike & Chris Cropped Clark Jacket at its $835 price tag. Even when I go to the Mike & Chris sample sale it's still going to be over $400. Sigh.


I saw this sweater dress on Closet Therapy and loved it. It'd be so great with mom and dad's xmas present, knee high boots and leggings, but since I'm kind of allergic to wool i dont' think that's happening. Even though this KAROO dress is 100% cashmere, I know it would start to itch after a few hours. I'm getting itchy just looking at it. Oh well.


My job doesn't absolutely require office type clothing, but I like dressing up a little bit. Probably because the whole business casual thing is new to me. This Nanette Lepore top would be so cute under a black jacket for work and then with a pair of jeans, a clutch and a black shrug for going out.
