Awesomeness

Since moving, I've spent about $30 on clothes. This doesn't count "los ensembles de negros" I collected for my Nana's funeral week, nor the unnamed sums put towards shoes and jewelry - but one has to draw the line somewhere with all this "moderation." So, in keeping with what I like to call "The Year of Justification," I bought some stuff this week.

1. A killer white Columbia parka - marked down to $129 at a ski apparel/equipment event here called "Sniagrab." That's "Bargains" backwards...clever! And cheap! It has a furry hood that I'm not quite sold on yet, but goes with my whole Meg White all clothes must be black, white or red aesthetic so I'm a fan.

2. Two small faux bois jewelry stands ($26 ea.) for aforementioned earring explosion I've been trying to manage since late 2004:

3. Building on the realization that I can put more than two throw pillows on my couch, as well as my realization that orange is the new red, a Queen/Union Jack little beauty ($39):

4. NOT BOUGHT YET - but oh my! I need these candles from Crate & Barrel desperatmente ($12 - $22), but am also torn as new ones I've been seeing are wrapped in CORK...mmm....so cool...

That's all! For today, at least. But I'm going to check out my competition later this afternoon so we might get ourselves in a little Amex trouble, if you know what I'm saying.

REMINDER!!!! Buy some photos!!!! THIS MEANS YOU, DAD.
