Perhaps I am Showing My Age with This

As in, too young to not be annoyed by it... But I actually kind of like it. It got me curious about what the stuff smells like, at least. It immediately caught my eye. Although, doesn't it seem a little early to be showcasing a lovely, spring-y feel? The holidays are not quite finished.

A Rule

I keep thinking about that teal coat I posted here a while back. I keep wanting it. So, the other day I thought I would check to see when I originally posted it, lusting after it. I told myself that unless it had been at least two weeks, I couldn't justify buying it (or asking Santa for it). When I checked, it had been three weeks.
Three weeks and still wanting. I would say that's a pretty good rule. Although I am starting to wonder if maybe I will feel dumb after the colorful coat trend passes... Will I someday be embarrassed that I have a turquoise coat? Will it become the acid washed, elastic cuffed jeans of tomorrow?
I am not sure. But today I was playing around and I made this. Here is that coat, with that purse, with jeans and boots that I already have. *sigh*

It Would Be Easy to Go Overboard

I found all these great purses at Target online tonight. I'm trying to keep an open mind about PVC.

By the way, I saw the two clutches in the bottom right corner in person at Target. I must say I was surprised by how much I liked them. I've always thought that I just couldn't do a purse that can't be slung over my shoulder. But these clutches are kind of the "large clutch" that I've seen people like the Olsen twins carrying around. So slim, yet surprisingly roomy inside. I may have to go back and snag one!
