the life of a chocoholic

let the manikin wear it!

Ahh I think I may be turning into a crazy person!  Have you ever seen the movie confessions of a shopaholic, well right now sadly I can relate to her.  I never thought I would have this problem I mean I have always been that person that can look around and say they like something but not need to try it on, but that has changed.  The problem is when you try something on and you love it and you can picture yourself walking around in this special treasure with music playing in the background  and the wind blowing your hair back and money coming from the sky and everyone looking at you as you walk gracefully suddenly looking more like jennifer Aniston then yourself, then you want it, you want it bad! So maybe I just wish that would happen but putting on a new piece of clothing adds confidence, all the sudden when you are wearing something that looked great on that size 00 manikin who was bald you feel good.   I mean I feel like I am having sweaters, rings, bags, necklaces, shoes, dresses, skirts, hats, and earings all call out to me.  It may be because I had not gone shopping or bought anything in four months and this is me going for it.  So I figure if I cant buy it I can put it on my blog, I mean in an odd sort of way its like I own it... kind of.  I figure this will be better for my wallet and my closest, win win situation except for the fact that I am not wearing it and to tell the truth the clothing probably looks better on the website then it would look on me.  I have also come to realize I need my DD with me when shopping because when it comes to venders and sales people, they are way too good at convincing me I need something or that something looks great on me, haha I am working on it!  Once I was considering buying a wool vest thing ( it was cuter then it sounds) with a big hole the size of a tennis ball.  I would say I have some serious issues.   Good thing D was there to help me out.

So hear are some of my finds
