want what i can't have

Just an update to let you know that I put up my first post on the new blog. nerdclothes.tumblr.com

In other news, I've been after this dress from Old Navy for the longest time. When it was full price, of course they had my size. But at the time, I couldn't justify paying that much for it, so I waited for it to go on sale. When it finally did, it was sold out of my size. Then it disappeared all together. And then came back, and my size was in stock, but when I tried to add it to my cart, it told me it had just sold out. It now randomly keeps popping back up, but it's always in sizes way to big for me. Very aggravating. If anyone comes across this in a 16 or an 18, for the love of god, grab it up, and I will love you forever.

WANT (and actually got this time)

I got a pretty, chiffon, light-pink dress to wear this spring. The only thing is, I felt like I didn't really have any shoes to wear with it. (Isn't that how these things usually go?)

So I went to 6pm and poked around for some new heels. (Would like to note that I am totally a recent pump/heel convert. I use to only buy flats because I didn't think I could toddle around securely in tall shoes. I then discovered that if I stuck to less than 3 inches, I was just fine. I suppose having to wear more adult clothes to the office really pushed me to try new things.)

And then I found these:


Volatile "Kathy", $37.50
The pale green screamed "quirky", but I can see these going with so many other colors in my closet aside from the pink. So, in the cart they went.

After some more poking around, I decided that a cream snake print would go PERFECTLY with a pastel pink. It would toughen up the look a bit, which is something I always try to do when I wear pale colors. So, I got these as well:

Chinese Laundry Kasha Python, $48.30

Mostly I just posted this for a reason to look at the platforms again. Tee hee.
