went to Buffalo yesterday to shop...since our dollar is at par, we thought we would go shopping....its strange how everything here is soo expensive compared to the US...its crazy how much cheaper things are down there...so i had hopes of going down to do some major haulage of clothes and came back with a disappointing lot....my total amount purchased was less than 10 items for myself...BOoo o well, it wasnt meant to be....yes i apply that theory even to shopping.....
despite my disappoint, i did stumble upon this adorable Badgley Mischka bag at the outlet for saks....i love it, its a really cute crossbody bag, white leader with gold hardware....the best part is...it was only $90 ...it made my day, even though i didnt get a chance to buy as much as i would have liked....i never knew it was so hard to find an affordable handbag that doesnt look cheap...i was on the hunt for an affordable bag and it has never been so difficult to find a bag...i must admit that i am picky when it comes to handbags because thats my thing...some people are shoe people and im just a bag kinda girl....its the only aspect of fashion that i truly believe in designer...dont get me wrong, i love designer clothes and shoes too but i also do not have unlimited access to funding, so realistically, as much as i would love to be dipped in designer its just not possible right now....so normally handbags are the only area where i really like to save and splurge....but considering my current status with all these unexpected costs with the Lasik and all....getting another designer bag was out of the question, but I had thrown out my only crappy everyday bag so i needed a replacement...and im glad that i finally found one...cuz this search was going 8 months strong.....i did feel a sense of accomplishment...haha
i was also hoping to find some shoes to buy....however, that didnt happen yesterday, so i went online and ordered a bunch today ....its off of a site i saw in my loulou shopping magazine...the shoes were like dirt cheap, i dont expect great quality, im really only getting it for the trends of the season....trends come and go so quickly, which is why i usually go cheap on trendy things...i got 5 pairs of shoes for under $80......its crazy how affordable the site is....i hope they dont break as soon as i wear them...that would not be cool...cant wait till i get them :)
continuing my gossip girl marathon....i never knew it was so hard to catch up on a whole season....school has put me behind on so many shows....at least its something to do while everyone else is at work...
