Style Obsessed

It's not really my norm, but now that I can finally wear all my old clothes (okay, except a couple that I chucked), and because I recently got some birthday money(!!!), I have been scouring the internet, SCOURING I tell you, for what clothes I should buy. I am especially obsessing over the cute dresses they have here, here, and here, and sometimes even here (NOT in my price range) and everywhere in-between. I am such a fashion victim (except that I can't pull the trigger). Still in nursing mode, I feel like I need a light at the end of the tunnel for when I can really wear dresses, you know, for more than a couple hours at a time. But, we don't have as much cash these days so I feel like I gotta pick ONE THING. Or two really cheap things. AND then I remember that I don't get opportunities to wear dresses that often anyway, so maybe I should be focusing my efforts on more casual attire. AND I can't afford to be too trendy, though I do want something a little bit special. AND it's gotta fit right or else this whole thing is pointless and I may as well keep shopping at Target clearance rack. AND, psst, even though I'm back to my old size I do have a cute *little gut* now, that shows when I wear tighter shirts, soooo yeah just a new wrinkle. What to do.

Seriously, I have filled up an online "shopping cart" like eight times recently and then chickened out. YIKES.

DO IT. Do it for you. Do it for your family. You will feel so much better -- just get one thing, don't go on a $pree. I say eShakti: pretty much guaranteed to fit right, whereas the other vendors often have comments on their items saying they fit weird. But just do it already!! (I do the same thing with filling the cart and then balking) :) Can't wait to see what you get.

Thanks! I had pretty much decided that same thing so I'm glad I now have back-up. Just waiting for my $15 off coupon code to arrive in my inbox. Crossing my fingers for awesomeness.

I always loved the mj style and I'm glad you are splurging on yourself. Don't go for Shabby Apple. Val got a dress there and the dye blead. She got another dress and it did the same thing. Finally she got her money back. Also look at modcloth. I drool over their looks but noever bought anything there. The last dress I bought was from Marshalls.

I guess that's bleed not blead.
