Retail Therapy

A little retail therapy for the therapist!

Cobalt and Capes

My Leopard Print flats are perfect for a day of vintage shopping with my sister. Cobalt Blue pants are NY & Co., RVCA t-shirt, BCBG cape, Carerra Sunglasses, and my new favorite Burton Blue Beanie.  

Favorite Accessories

These are my favorite bracelets to wear together lately. This Nixon watch I have had since I was about 14 years old (not going to tell you how long ago that was). It was my first expensive fashion accessorie and obviously I have gotten my monies worth! The mix of beaded bracelets and the leopard print bracelets are from Express. And the silver studded bracelet I have also had since about junior high durring my punk rocker days. I am hooked on mixing and matching these bracelets!

I am in absolute LOVE with her top, or dress or whatever it is. I say harah to her for such an amazing fashion choice because this item might have looked very odd on the hanger, and it sure as hell looks drop dead gorgeous on her! 

Jump In

So, I have been looking for a jumper for a few weeks now. I tried on one at Nordstrom's and the butt was see through and the fabric was so thin you could see very intimate details of anything that was jiggly. Way wrong to do to any woman unless you are a dietitian, P90X, Zumba dancing, tight bunned wonderful freak of nature. I felt like my jiggly places were just a little too exposed for comfort, but I otherwise loved it and sad to have to let it go. 

Since then I have been on the hunt and I think I have found the one :) 

This cobalt Blue wonder from Express. It fits awesome on me and is incredibly comfortable! I bought it today! YAY! What do you think FS Followers?

My three Fingered Ring

This is my wonky eyed Rachel Roy Ring. Obviously one of the eye balls fell out because it's so incredibly loved and I wear it just about every weekend! It is really heavy and a definite show stopper for when I want to make a statement. Plus no one is going to f$*@ with me if I walk down a dark back alley way on a Saturday night. HAHA!

So Many Red Shoes and So Little Time!

The Red Stilettos I had forever were always a size and a half too big for me. I added some pads to them and made them work for years, they were irresistible and I got compliments on them every time I wore them. They were the perfect color, the heel was high but not too high where I couldn't walk in them comfortably. They were wonderful to me with the exception of the fact that they slid off my heel from time to time mid stride (not a cute moment!). Being the Feng Shui addict that I am, I knew it was time to upgrade. I love getting rid of things that just aren't being used or working properly, I do this about 2-3 times a year. It provides a type of mental cleanse for me that I adore! I also like to go through my items and make sure everything is working well, I grease up all of the hinges in my space and deep clean and scrub all the nooks and crannies, then sanitize the light switches and door knobs. Its like a Spring Cleaning 3 times a year and it makes me feel wonderful. But in this Feng Shui cleanse I knew in my heart of hearts that the shoes would be better for someone who would use them more, for someone that they would fit properly. Enter my life long friend Alex...our feet have always been similar in size and she was actually in the process of looking for red stilettos, which tells me the timing was right and everything was as it should be! Alex tried them on and they fit like a glove, she took my shoes home and I now have room in my life for a new pair of red shoes. I am on the hunt! Here are a few that I am eyeing while I shop around: 

Red Shoes

When I finally find my pair I will post a picture, but for now its kind of fun to shop around looking for that perfect pair that will be timeless in my life and accentuate my wardrobe with the perfect pop of color! After all, it should be about enjoying the journey, right!?!?
