shop talk
OK, so I did the personal shopper thing tonight after work, and I have to tell you, it's freaking me the hell out. Yes, I came away with a very nice suit, a very nice casual outfit, and a pair of sandals I'll wear until the next snowfall. But I spent a shitload of money.
I had actually budgeted this very amount for clothes shopping, but I guess I thought I'd get five or eight times the merchandise for that figure. I mean, I bought high-quality stuff today, and that's good, but I'm very, very unused to spending anything like that kind of dough on clothes I'm not going to get married in. (Maybe I shouldn't do all my shopping at Target?) I'm trying to tell myself I'm worth the good stuff, but right now, I'm just reminded of why I loathe clothes shopping so very, very much.

I love clothes shopping ... only when I have money to spend and I know exactly what I want and where I can buy it. I personally prefer to spend more money on clothes and get less, than the other way around because they'll last longer. Enjoy your new clothes!

I'm trying to convince myself that I'm with you 100%, because yours is a reasonable and thoughtful approach. I guess I'm still in sticker shock — but I can't wait to wear my new sandals.
