smart shopper

Maybe this post's title is a little misleading...because if you read this post, I really shouldn't be shopping at all.  But part of the paring-it-down process is learning to be a smarter shopper when I do spend my money.  No more buying a cheap dress for every event.  I need to buy things purposefully, things that I really love and can wear to work and to play, for as many seasons as possible.  I need to invest in really good basics that I can wear well, so I can avoid my current situation:  a closet overflowing with things I never wear.

If you skipped that paragraph, it was basically just me desperately trying to justify the clothes I just bought.

But I am really proud of myself!  I bought a few really nice basics that I can wear to work and on weekends.  More importantly, I have been coveting (read: creating an online shopping bag, staring at it longingly all day, reluctantly closing the tab) them for weeks so I know this love is real. 

I'm definitely most excited about this colorblocked beauty:

Should we name her? 

love and anthropomorphism,
