Decisions, decisions...

I was gifted a bit of spending cash for my birthday recently, and I have been hoarding it closely.  I won't even put it in my purse yet, because I don't trust myself not to impulse spend on something I don't absolutely love.  I think that's been a major side effect for me.  When I do have money to spend either from gifts or my small bit of blow money, I have a really hard time letting it go.  I'm making a small list of what I could buy with my fund.  Again, battling that want and need see-saw.  



Asics Women's Frantic 3 Running Shoe
I overdid it a few weeks ago in my old Asics and found that my feet were ticked off!  Sore arches and irritated ankles.  I've had to slow down to just a brisk walk, but I have been putting off buying a new pair.  I am digging the purple and grey tones on this pair.  

Updated Flat Iron
Anything newer that five years would be a major improvement to my current flat iron.  Mine is thick and outdated, and maybe damaging my ends.  Not very sleek.  I am searching for an inexpensive and dependable iron, somewhat slimmer in width.  This one is from CHI, and I have heard good things about the brand.  Every frizzy (ahem) I mean curly-haired curl longs for what she doesn't have.  *sigh*

JCrew Fall 2011

Why must they torture me!?  Fall is by far, my favorite season to shop for.  I could not be happier that flair jeans are back.  I am not a woman who is benefitted by the skinny jean craze, although I adore the look.  I also love the mustard hue blazer, and recently got a t-shirt in the same shade.  I might have to settle for some dark rinse flairs from Old Navy this season. 

and just for fun..


Essie Nail Color

Sign me up for all of these.  This brand is my new obsession.  The paint lasts forever and the colors are so vibrant.  Love.

I recommend going to a local running store and getting fitted for running shoes. Your feet, shins, ankles and knees will thank you! :)They can probably help you find a sole that will help with your sore arches <3
