Baby Steps
So I like to web shop when stuff is slow. Today, I found some stuff at www.asos.com for damn near nothing- I wanna buy these... what do you think?
Those side buttons are killer! Pumps, ankle boots, sandals- I think I could rock these! Here's the best part; they're only $15!!! I don't know what's going on but I keep finding really good CHEAP buys and I like it! I'm not gonna move on these until someone give me the green light- what do you think?
Miss Orange if you're nasty...

Consumer-itis...
I like buying stuff... nail polish, earrings, shoes... something everyday. The funny thing is, I don't have a problem with it. I like it- it makes me feel good. So today, while i was working, I indulged myself with a little retail therapy...
These are Minnetonka boots- they're pretty hot right now because you can match them up with anything and they look good. They retail at $42.00 at www.shopstyle.com.
There was a DSW Shoe Warehouse close by so I decided to pop in. Anyone who has read my blog knows I o.d. on shoes. I walked the isles, flirting with the pumps and caressing the boots. Like the good shopper I am, I went through the clearance section. The $20 I had in pocket was burning a hole in my jeans, maybe because it knew what I was about to stumble upon. I have big feet so the clearance section can either go really well or fashion tragic. In the racks were 2 pairs of Minnetonka boots- one high pair for $78.95 & a low pair for $38.95. I don't know if you are all that hip to DSW, but let me put you up on things; their clearance section has marked down shoes with ADDITIONAL percent off AND if you join their shoe buyers club (I did- stop laughing! I deal with my issues- lol), you get coupons in the mail. These aren't no punk coupons either- I got one for $10 off and you can save them & combine them with others as long as you have no more than 3 at a time. That's $30 off a sale price!!! So since I'm walking baby steps to get past my consumer-itis, I put the boots on hold and did the responsible thing.... I told myself if I kept thinking about them, I'd return to buy them. I went back into work and guess what?- someone had them on! She said they were some of the most comfy & easy shoes to wear, especially when you're on your feet all day. That was my sign!!! I remembered I had a $10 coupon in my car, a $20 in my pocket & they were 30% off the sale price. I ended up paying $17.43 for my Minnetonka ankle boots!!!
The tall ones retail for around $84 but if you're a shopper like me, you can definitely find them for less. Try a thrift store also- the o.g. version of these boots have a suede sole. My mom had a pair back in the day that my sister hijacked and loves to life. You can do skinny jeans & a tee for a Saturday visit to the hairdresser, a cute dress for work or a cardigan, jean skirt & cami for a movie date with these boots. I'm telling you, these are a nice lil' pair of shoes to have on standby- especially when you can get them for less than $20 bucks!
