Good Friday

I took the day off (yes I did!!)

Why? You may ask.

Well - for a very important reason. I finally got my hair cut. Now, I know what you're going to say. It doesn't look that different in the pictures (top 3 before, bottom is the after) but I promise -it is 3 inches shorter and quite a different color...truly...but maybe it is a little more subtle than expected.

Feeling good after my cut and color went so well, I went shopping for some new clothes. I mean, why not, let's spend some more money. Ignoring the fact that my size is not what I want it to be, I headed to Kohl's to investigate the new Vera Wang collection.

Wow - cute stuff...although the wash and wear fabric is definitely a little less than what you'd expect from Vera. Found a great suit and a top - which made me happy because I had forgotten to take my suits to the cleaner and was facing an empty closet for my trip to San Diego on Monday.

The big score, however, was at Annie Sez where I found THE little black dress. Including the Calvin Klein label.

How much was it?

Wait for it...are you anticipating?


$50!!!!


No way, you say... Yes way, I say.

I have wanted a little black dress ever since I saw Breakfast at Tiffany's when I was a little girl. I've never found one that fit me right...now I've got it! Add a new pair of killer black pumps, some long crystal and fake pearl necklaces, a fun crystal and fake pearl bangle, new hot red lipstick and some fun eye shadow...and I was cruisin.

All in all - a good friday.

Love the cut and the dress! I love shopping (I prefer to call it retail therapy. Sounds like the perfect Friday to me! :)

Thank you for the kind words. I am glad that they eliminated the really scary stuff. It was just hard because I was already terrified, and it just magnified it.

I'm doing what I have to do, even if I don't like it much. I just know I never want to feel that way again.
