This is how I shop.

I don't like to shop, particularly for myself.

I do like clothes but rarely hit the malls since I find the whole thing exhausting and somewhat depressing for two reasons. Since Sweetpea came along I tend to buy for comfort rather than fashion, and consumerism makes me oogy. That said, my dream is to have Stacy and Clinton show up and give me $5000 and rather than send me out to shop myself, just buy everything for me.

Two things have helped - internet shopping (love!) and having a decent camera in my cellphone. That way I can snap, send, and have a visual consultation with whomever I'm buying for (which I much prefer to buying for myself). Very handy when shopping for my nieces back east as they are quite the fashionistas. I can take some pics and send them to my sister for approval and I'm done! (I hope they like their Christmas presents)

Because I don't want to spoil any surprises......

.....my dream of a husband is also my own personal shopping consultant and liked both these items but couldn't figure out how I took the pics.

Don't you love three-way mirrors?

(The answer: no.)
(I don't know what oogy means either)
(This is probably the one and only post about shopping you'll ever see on this blog.)
