Pretty AND sexy! Nice choice, Erica.

I'm going with some very plain brown suede boots. I never realized just how difficult it was to shop for brown suede boots - forget if they will fit or not, 'cause these won't. But, they are classically cool. I'll keep looking for something with a bit more character, but. so far, these will do.

Cole Haan - $298 (which still leaves me about $36 in the hole).

How I do adore tall boots. I love your Fleuvogs that you have at home, too... I should look up a pair of those, and buy those on a spree here...

My Fluevogs are still available on their site. If only they came in brown suede, I'd buy another pair.

More Fluevogs for me for $175



And, for $99



I love the nod to the thirties and fourties but with such a punk attitude.

Hopefully, this takes care of my deficit.

Stretching the definition just a bit, I'll be outfitting the kitchen today. And I haven't purchased since Friday, so I've got a lot of room to work with...

First, everyday dinnerware:

Serving for 12 for $120 (I've actually seen sets in stores that I like much better than this, but this was the best I could find online. Pattern's okay but not great. I love the shape, though)


For those summer outdoor parties, this set of melamine dinnerware. $200 for service for 12 + 2 serving trays.


And we may yet by these awesome placemts (first one's fabric, second one's plastic). $32 for a set of 4 each



Hmm, that's about $350. Still got $550 in the bank. Sweet.

Being that I've never posted in this thread or the last thread, I'm going to catch up by buying this whole room. In fact, I may never be able to post in this thread again.

Well, I'll be in Paris at the start of rainy season. This black moleskin double breasted pea coat seems just the trick at $240.

I'm grooving on this jacket. It's only $80, so I have plenty left over...

Crap, all this shopping and I'm still barefoot! (and pantsless, but that can wait ;) )

For work, Doc Marten black Monk Shoe $90


For play, Doc Marten 0071 Series $120

Found a hat! $175



I'm still pantsless.
