My first post-diet purchase was an item I didn't even diet from: shoes! Scored these adorable AK Anne Klein Sarajane heels from Macy's for $20. And they're comfortable. Go me.
WEEKEND! Well, almost. It's been a long and eventful week, and I am thoroughly pooped (but I say that every weekend). This weekend is panning out to be super-awesome. It's my good friend Stephanie's birthday, and as the oldest of the group, we go all out. So I'll be escaping the impending rain in Sacramento to enjoy the 70 degree sunniness of LA, and stopping in to hang with the 'rents a bit. Speaking of Stephanie, her birthday is actually TODAY, so HAPPY BIRTHDAY!!

Love the shoes you picked out, though sort of anti-climactic since you could've bought them the whole time.;) hahah! Just Kidding! I love the houndstooth!

ReplyDelete@ adam - thanks! I need all the help I can find. :)
ReplyDelete@ linda - they are seriously amazing. :)
@ hope - I KNOW! that's exactly what I was thinking. I've made up for it since, though!
@ t - they are pretty comfy! Very good arch support for heels. I actually wore these walking to coffee and back during the work day. Good stuff.
