let's make a deal!


Well for those of you who don't know, Old Navy had their big sale last week, and of course I had to at least go check it out. Oh and check it out I did. I have a serious shopping problem in case you haven't figured that out yet...but I am working on it...kinda. :) In my defense, I rarely if ever shop while I'm at school because 1- I don't have any money and 2- I'm in Logan. Enough said.

So to help me through those withdrawals, I often resort to looking at online shopping. I generally add items to my "shopping cart" and then never actually click checkout. Then I feel like I have all these cute clothes coming, but I didn't actually spend any money. I know I know, there is definitely something wrong with me, but hey, whatever helps me sleep at night.

But on this rare occasion that I did actually venture out into the great white blizzard outside my door, I quite enjoyed. A little alone shopping time, just me and my thoughts was exactly what I needed. While my plan was to actually show you the fruits of my labor, my internet seems to be having some issues right now and won't load the pictures, so my apologies. I'll have to just tell you what I got.

I started with a few sweaters. I know it's spring, but umm, actually no. Where I live, it is not spring. Not even close, in fact. And me being the genius that I am, I already packed away most of my winter clothes in the sincerest hopes that my preparation might usher in the sunshine and warm weather. But sigh, it was to no avail. So naturally I had to find something to wear that wouldn't result in hypothermia. 2 big knit turtleneck sweaters (yellow and army green) and 1 dark gray tunic-length, dolman sleeve sweater later, I am once again comfortable walking outside. I also bought a gray button-up shirt which is a little different for me, but I definitely love it. For some reason, I've been buying different articles of clothing lately, changing up my wardrobe a bit. It's pretty refreshing too. Last but not least, I bought some white pants. Yes, white. Scary I know, but I tried them on and fell in love. It's like they were made for me and I can already imagine the gorgeous outfits they're gonna help me put together. 

Then, I had to go back this morning. I know what you're thinking, but it was another big sale. Cardi's for  $8! I live in cardi's! Plus bathing suits were 60% off. I got gray and coral cardi's and a bright pink suit. You'd think that pink being my absolute favorite color I would have had one already, but no. I could never find any, especially that I liked. So of course I couldn't pass it up! But now I'm done, I promise. But I am very excited about my newest closet items. And summer will be ever so wonderful! So who else is ready for it?! Because I am finding it very hard to wait any longer. So please weather, try to be nice for the last few weeks of my semester. I can't handle the snow and cold and wind anymore. I would greatly appreciate any and all of your cooperation. :)
