Over the weekend, a January miracle happened – it was warm enough that I didn’t need a coat. So what did I do? Went coat shopping, obviously. I was actually in Forever 21 looking for something for a costume party, but this baby was under $60 and I’ve been wanting a long, classic camel coat for a while. Check back with me in a year to find out if the quality matches the cheap price tag, but at least for now, it looks and feels a lot more expensive than $60. This forever-29-year-old is pleased.

I’ll wait until the end of the month to do my big shopping roundup as usual, but I actually spent almost my entire budget on August 1. What can I say? I had just finished the Bar and I was ready to treat myself. I do a lot of online shopping, so it’s been awhile since I actually spent a day at the mall going from store to store trying things on. (It’s actually pretty fun. You should try it sometime. Sorry, Internet.)

But when I DO go on a big shopping excursion, I dress accordingly. Shoes that slip on and off easily; no jewelry that’s going to get caught in things; and preferably a dress like this one that zips so I don’t have to pull anything over my head and mess up my hair. OK, so the belt’s not that practical, but a girl has to accessorize, right? Right.
