Day 45, 1:00pm: Packing!

Day 45, 1:00pm: Packing!
Money spent on clothes: Well... Pre-Day 1 had purchased leopard print loafers from Target. Tried them on the other day and they were excruciatingly tight and painful. Returned them (and their black counterparts) and bought appropriately fitting Steve Madden Croquet leopard print loafers on sale at Macy's ($35 down from $80). So, you know, all that explanation to say, technically still $0.

Heading to Denver this afternoon (old college stomping grounds) for girls weekend with two besties.

Had to go straight to book club from shift at hospital, no time to swing home and change. Such a waste of a good outfit opportunity. Am exhausted, Clara Barton type person.

Day 41: Don't know what came over me.

Day 41: Don't know what came over me.
Money spent on clothes: $50 ?!

Honestly do not know how this happened. Am possibly sleep walk shopping online. There I was, innocently putting items in my OldNavy.com cart, hoping I would forget about them and they would sell out, when next thing I know, I receive an order confirmation email. Was fated to own light blue skinny jeans a la Katie Holmes in her last public outing with wackadoodle Tom Cruise.


{And also a white button down and a black button down}

{Thank you, Brandi.}
