Telling you what I did on a Saturday
Shirt Target yesterday! It is brown cotton button up with ruffle along front. I think I need more of it.
Jeans and earrings H&M 2008
Born Sandals 2009
Men's Tank Target 2008?
Purse Coach 2010
Old shoe photo with my RHONJ pedicure. I have to say I still kinda love it in that tracky-tastic way. I love ridiculous nails. I had never had it except that one time. I just wanted to TRY IT.
It was an absolutely amazing weather day here. The sun was shining it was 70 and just a twing of a cool breeze off the ocean. Totally not normal March New England weather. It was my toe's first outing of the year. (Well except for the one time I got a pedicure and walked home in flipflops. But that was only for about 2 minutes as I basically ran home.)
We rented a sleek new Subaru last night and got cupcakes and pizza and went to Target to check out the Liberty of London stuff. I bought a present for a friend's baby and myself a wallet and plastic box. I also got this shirt and some lilac suede flats with cutouts that fulfilled the "purple shoes" and "comfy flats" fashion wish list items. I totally plan to wear this shirt with a high waisted skirt and flats.
I am in mad love with my purse. This is it's blog debut. I got it a few weeks ago with Dave's 25% off coupon. It filled my "cross shoulder bag" and "black bag" wish list items. I really need to put more things in life on my wish list because I have noticed when I extremely specific and write it down on my list I end up finding it. (The whole realization thing I guess) It has a shorter strap to tuck it under your arm too. Thank you mister tax man. I ended up giving the gray bag to my mom for her birthday that is quickly approaching. She knows I carried it for 4 days and it is gently loved. Long story but she will appreciate it much more than I ever would.
Today we went to lunch and spent two Christmas gift cards, one for PF Changs and one for Barnes and Noble. If it had been my Barnes and Noble gift card it would of been spent on December 26th. My boy he is not a reader. We are also such thrifty eaters we have enough on the card from one and a half more meals there! (Our most expensive meal we have ever had was $59. and that included dessert. As a Celiac we just find it hard to spend money on a meal that could make him sick)
Do you write down physical wish lists?
I have a fashion one. It has things like Nude Pumps, Black waterproof fancy trench that isn't stiff and hot, Brown high waist full skirt, Silver leather belt...etc. I am very picky so these items tend to be hard to please me.

I have a wishlist for my wardrobe, including things like a bigger crossbody purse (I have a Coach one that is small but holds a lot, but i want a medium-to-large size one), nude pumps, a leather jacket that doesn't look like something I owned in the 90s, the perfect pair of black flats, a classic trench coat, a pair of comfortable but sexy black heels (my old perfect ones from Nine West died in such a way that they could not be fixed by a cobbler), a pair of perfectly broken in cowboy boots, a vintage Esther Williams style swimsuit in bright lipstick red, the perfect big cocktail-style turquoise ring, a well-tailored white blouse, trouser jeans that don't look like mom jeans on me, etc. etc. I could go on forever!
My fiance and I also made a list of places we want to travel to, so we'll see how that works out. I do think having a physical/visual reminder makes it more real.
Loving the manicure - so cute! I haven't managed to get my tootsies out yet so far this year!
I too write down wish lists for items I want to buy - then tick them off when and if I do :D

I have a wish list of big pieces -- white trench, ankle boots, etc -- but I don't have them written down.
I don't have a physical wishlist. For a while I would bookmark things I liked so I could watch them to go on sale, but in the end I spent even more money because things that I would have forgotten about otherwise stayed on the list. I just sort of have general ideas of what I want. Sometimes they're specific (I'm in need of a black cross-body bag myself right now) but usually it's just "I need something I could wear to work then out to dinner" or "I need a top with an interesting neckline for underneath a jacket" or something. Things that I don't really know what I'm looking for until I find it!
However, I do have a physical to do list.... :(
I don't write down physical wish lists, I keep them in my head. Fashion wise it changes every season, of course. Right now I want a polka-dot vintage cut bathing suit, a high waisted pencil skirt, and a pair of red patent peep toe heels that are comfortable.
