Until the last week or so, I was well on my way to my lowest credit card balance in ages -- even after the $95 MJ shades I'd ordered for N. Then... I was bored, and still getting over things, and slightly anxious about being in a city that -- for better or worse -- puts much stock in appearances.
The result:
Ferragamo varina patent flats, "blood red," $183 at Arthur Beren
Coach Amanda satin mini satchel, $140 at Nordstrom Rack
Laura Mercier mini brush set, $37.50 at HauteLook
Laura Mercier Petite eye palette, $15 at HL
Laura Mercier lip plumper, "grapefruit," $15 at HL
Vincent Longo diamante quad, "rojas," $20 at Barneys STOP CANCELING MY ORDERS DAMMIT
Vincent Longo pressed powder, "golden sienna," $13 at Barneys
...and the only thing not on sale -- iphone 3gs, $200 at at&t w/2 year contract.
NO MORE SHOPPING.
