i came, i saw, i bought | needful things
This week marked a little more bank account cushioning in the week since I've avoided eating out since the semester began (barring coffee and my usual breakfast--my one allowance.) A rare feat since I inevitably cave to pizza and tacos at least once a week or wind up going on an occasional Friday. But as such, and since money burns a hole in my pocket pretty quickly, I chose to hit up my other vice and pick up a few things I'd been wanting. Ever since I finished re-watching the last season of Sex in the City, I'd been obsessed with Carrie's stripey Paris outfit, and though I have a couple more summery tees sporting stripes, I wanted some sort of sweater or cardigan and a short sleeve tee for layering, both of which I hunted up on ebay and got for a combined under $30.

In my hunt for stripes, I stumbled across this shirt, and since I've been listening exclusively to Stevie in the studio for the past couple of weeks (and in honor of AHS) I of course had to buy it. (also because it will look amazing with the velvet green jacket I bought a couple of years ago that barely goes with anything else, but I love it madly. ) It's also art nouveaux-ish Stevie, so it was extra enticing...

I was lying in bed another morning and thumbing through Pinterest and spotted this dress which I had been watching since summer and praying it would go on sale, and realized it had, almost by like half, and amazingly was still available in my size. I have three of this style from Modcloth and love them (a polkadot, a black, and a berry-colored one.) I've learned that if I love a dress and it's flattering, to buy as many colors as I can since it eliminates the fashion error rate.
