A little indulgence!!

Today I did something I very rarely do.... I bought some new clothes for myself!!! Most of the times, I tell myself I don't want to buy anything until I lose a little weight.... Well, I am proud to say I have lost 16 pounds so far!! Soooooo..... I rewarded myself with a little purchase! While at Nordstrom Rack with my girls, I found this darling black velvet jacket, for which I paid a mere $14 (down from $68)... Gotta love a good bargain!!!





I also found a sweet white dress at Old Navy (also on clearance for $13)... Looks great with a denim jacket!    I don't know.... I may get used to this shopping thing...!!

  4. Lovely jacket, fantastic prices! I even think $69.- would have been a good price.

  5. Oh heck, if I waited until I lost the weight, I'd never get anything new. Wait a minute, I never get anything new...

    You found some great bargains there!
