Something to consider before you head off to the mall


My precious friend Heather of The Coterie turned me on to this wonderful sweater from Gap. Ah, the buttons. And the whispered gathers under the yoke and how they're juxtaposed against those contrasting sporty lines. The casual, tiny roll at the hem. The Audrey Hepburn shawl collar. The pouch pockets. I want to kiss the person who designed this sweater. I don't even need to own it--merely looking is nirvana. 
Think how much money I just saved. $49.95, plus tax, to be exact.  

The you already knew this skinny: Having and happiness do not necessarily go hand in hand.  (Just a loving reminder from an old grammy.) Have a good weekend!

Yeah, me too! I'll keep the picture in my mind of what I would have USED to have looked like in that darling sweater.

Cute sweater! Thanks for the comment on my blog. I don't even know what Analytics means! Obviously, I have a lot to learn from you!

whew! thank goodness you didn't get it. then i would've had to go out and get it. it's just a vicious cycle. also, not sure what i'd look like walking around in 80-90 degree weather here in FL with that cute little sweater. a fool ... perhaps? hehe...

Oh gosh... I need to do better at learning that "having is not happiness". THANK YOU!
