this post goes with this

buying moments

Do you ever have one of those "got to have it not matter what!" moments? Like when you see something in the store and instantly snatch it up knowing that you will find a reason to use it, wear it, whatever? You don't think twice about whether you need it or not? Yeah, I had one of those moments yesterday.

Well, can you blame me?

(Plus it only cost $1.95)

Ask yourself....

"when was the last time I updated my closet?"


Well, I've got birthday $$ still left that is burning a hole in my pocket!
So I'm updating my closet.

I got these a couple of days ago...

and just bought this...
Vintage Russian Princess Coat

Does that mean I'll turn into a princess every time I wear this coat?
Who knows (I don't have it yet)
But I don't care 'cuz I love it
I will feel like a princess while wearing it


I even have $ left over...I may have to buy a purse
I mean, I WILL buy a purse!
.....just have to find one


Ahhh, the joy of money!!

my birthday present to me from me

why I shop Second-Hand stores

(stupid blogger) The picture is suppose to be the other way. I bought a purse and found $10 in it. The purse more than paid for itself.

I heard them calling my name

so how could I not respond?!!

our new joy toy

'68 GTO

the kids loving the ride

no doubt that he's loving it too

these are from our second ride yesterday...

another one

So my mom and I (and the kids) went shopping yesterday...and I bought a new purse....what?! why are you rolling your eyes at me? I believe that a purse is like shoes, it needs to match your outfit. Well, okay so maybe I just like purses. hee-hee

It helps that this is a Kathy Van Zeeland purse. I looooooove her purses.


So maybe I shouldn't tell you about the 2 pairs of shoes that I bought yesterday too?! I believe I'm up to 48 pairs now. ;p

My garage sale deal

I got Nolan two bikes for $35. Both have hardly been ridden. He's very excited about his new bikes.

my new jacket

ahhh, pictures

You wanted me to take pictures with my new camera so I thought "why not take one of my new shoes?!" Aren't they bea-u-ti-ful? I love them!!
Of course they are red...why are you so surprised?!?! (tee-hee)

and then a couple of me and my cute son

My new toy

So I got my new camera today...At first when I looked in the box, I thought that they forgot to add the camera but then I saw it...that tiny little thing down at the bottom. It's half the size of my other one!
It's not going to be hard to lose it in my purse....my current purse is the size of a small suitcase. I say current because my purses do change but I'm not going to get started on purses or it'll get me in the mood for a new one. ;)

they told me all I had to do was to spend $40

and I'd get this free purse!


Now how could I pass up a deal like that?!

My fabulous new purse

How I feel about my new sunglasses

My deals

I stopped at Savers today. I got this jacket, it looks so cute on. Very fitted.

and I got this Kathy Van Zeeland purse. I love love love KVZ purses. I was going to sell it on ebay but now I don't know. I should probably try it out first to see if I want to take it for me. :)

my new boots

kettle

My latest and greatest purchase. An electric kettle. It boils water so fast! It's great
