Shoes, Skinny Jeans and Money Saved

  
Knock Knock
Who's there?  The shoe man!  My new shoes just arrived at my doorstep, thanks to Shoeline.com.  I ordered them Saturday and they arrived today... not bad for free shipping!  I "needed" a pair of red shoes, and these did not disappoint.   Can't wait to wear them...



Not 21 Anymore
Sunday I took my first trip into a Forever 21 store.  Lots of great clothes and accessories.  I picked up my first pair of skinny jeans.  I didn't have time to try them on, so I just bought what looked like my size.  I got home and pulled them on.  They slid nicely up my lower legs, but didn't make it past my thighs.  Apparently, my calves are "Forever 21" but my ass is more like "Mother of 2 Kids."  Oh well, they are going back to the store.   I stopped in to the more mommy-friendly Loft today at lunch and bought some "Mother of 2 Kids" sized skinny jeans.. much better!

Money Saved
I went to buy this jacket today from Eddie Bauer.  I need a brown jacket for the Fall.  Well, it's SOLD OUT.  Darn it, now I'm disappointed.  But doesn't this mean I've "saved money" by not buying this? Oh, what to do with all this "saved" money :)

  2. I almost fell off my chair I'm laughing so hard. I need to get skinny jeans but my legs are no where near skinny. Help! That sucks about the coat, have you checked the store?

  3. The sizes there are quite deceiving, though I've kind of rekindled my love affair with F21 lately. They have some fun accessories and things. I love those red shoes you picked. I've been craving red shoes lately.
