It may very well be some form of self-torture. I can't help myself though. I have access to the internet, therefore I peruse. Things I can live without. Accoutrements? Umm, I'd rather not...
Even so, Anthropologie will most likely remain an inspirational fashion source and that's all. No way am I shelling out $80 for a bag. I bet I can find some cute vintage fabric and pull something together myself. Better bring my "a" game to the sewing machine though. eeeeeeeck. It may be a little past my expertise level. We'll see.
As for the shoes...maybe I can just paint my toes pretty and call it "good." And that would be a possibility if it would just stop snowing!
