You broke my heart cuz I couldn't dance

I went shopping today! I traded in a few things at Buffalo Exchange and got a lovely blouse and a dress in return, and put a bazillion things on hold as well. This was a pretty momentous outting for me, as it's been so long since I allowed myself to buy clothes. I also got one of the pairs of eBay shoes (and they are amazing!), and the other is waiting for me at the P.O. So soon, hopefully, I'll be doing a decent "oooh lookit mah clothez!" post.

Until then however:

The holiday season is upon us, and that means parties: cocktail, office, family, you name it, someone's bound to fête it. So don't make an arse of yourself out there on the dance floor! Take a few tips from the hardest working man in showbiz. The funky chicken never looked so fine.

Two of the best things I've seen in a long time

from Matildan and the Moderniteter, respectful-, and respective-ly. Ladies: WE'RE NOT WORHTY!

Sock Weather

Mmmmm toasty!

If you have size 6 feet...

...and $150.00 to spare, then you have no excuse. You are hereby commanded to buy


these shoes, if for no other reason than to keep me from buying them and hanging them on my flippin' wall!

Winterized

When youre on a budget, you have to get creative. As much as I'd love to be able to splurge on a new winter wardrobe, that's just not gonna happen, alack, alas. So instead, I'm trying to focus on finding ways to wear lighter, summer items in warmer ways.

Back in August, I wore this dress (that I picked up back in San Francisco when I worked at Crossroads) out in Santa Cruz for a bicycle trip to the fabric store on a rather warm, windy day. Today, I wore it again, on a different coast, in a different season, and for an entirely different purpose.
