Gimme! Gimme!

So I know that the economy is in the crapper and blah blah blah, but I still want STUFF! I can’t stop buying shtuff either. Last week when I was in my funk I bought at least five cd’s – I just couldn’t stop myself. Once again, I have no self control. None. Nada. Zilch. Also why I haven’t worked out in a week and why I ate a bag of popcorn the other night and have had too many donuts to count. They’re my weakness! Don’t judge. I am trying to control my constant urge to shop though due to the fact that who knows where we'll be in a year or so. Given that I work for a company that isn’t exactly recession proof I have decided to just drool over the following items as opposed to buying them. However, considering my lack of control I might just own them by next week. Who knows?!

This green Priorities jacket - I luurrvve the Peter Pan collar:

These gray booties from DSW - I've been dying for a good pair of booties:
This scarf from PrettyRaccoons shop at Etsy - you can never have too many scarves:



And, finally, I want this picture from Matteart at Etsy - I don't know where I'd hang it, but I'd find a place, don't you worry:

Is it bad that I have been shopping still? I feel like I'm doing my part to help the economy that way...

Those shoes are ADORABLE! I must resist going straight to DSW for the sake of my credit card balance!

Stealthnerd - No, like I said most likely I'll be back into shopping mode next week.

Jessica - Hey, you're helping the economy!!

ss+1 - I know, DSW is dangerous.

Heather said...

Love all of that stuff. Bad bad bad. I now feel like I have to shop some more. Oh well, I am boosting the economy by spending.

Yes I do want that jacket and those boots. Two please, size L and 9.5. I know, I still really want to shop too but I have to cut back since things are gettin' more expensive in the city.

I love it all too! When you buy it all, make it two and mail it to me.

You're a peach!

rs27 - I know. Very disturbing. It almost makes me hate the scarf, but not quite.

Heather - Yes! Go shopping and post pictures so I can live vicariously through you!

Bayjb - I know and with Christmas coming up I just keep thinking about all the presents I need to get.

Jamie - Thanks! Really I get most of my etsy tips from you - you've never steered me wrong.

Matt - Don't worry, the scarf would look waaayyy cuter on me.

Kristen - Of course! Just remember next time you get an adorable pair of shoes to send some my way as well.

I can't remember the last time I went on a shopping spree. Lucky girl!

I love the scarf and the boots. I might just wear them by themselves -- with maybe some strategically placed art.

I love that scarf ...I think I just saw it the other day on etsy ...ugh, I'm wanting to buy everything right now...everything!

Unknown said...

I have the same attitude as you. I want stuff still!

Jay Ferris said...

I'd have to agree with Matt. That model makes me want to choke her with the scarf.

Ohh! That green jacket is absolutely stunning! I love collar and the color. So pretty!
