Sweetums and I hit the Macy’s Men’s store in the Beverly Center. He found this Calvin Klein coat on sale for $58 from almost $300.
I’m super jealous. Why can’t this coat be on sale for at least $150.00? *sulks*
So, I finally got my Christmas gifts. My Blackberry Pearl had been giving me problems. It wouldn’t scroll left. This wasn’t a huge problem until I tried to log into AIM. Well, in the messenger area on the pearl, the icons are lined up next to each other. The last messenger service I used was Yahoo, which is to the far right, I couldn’t scroll left to get to the AIM icon… Biiiiggggg problem. If you know me, you know I live on my phone. So I had been contemplating getting a new phone for Christmas. After looking at most smartphones, except the ones from Sprint, I hate Sprint, I narrowed my choices down to the Voyager or the iPhone.
The Voyager had one plus, the full keyboard. When my boyfriend tried to type in Lolo’s Cube in the iPhone, it took almost ten minutes, so we disregarded the phone. But the voyager’s monthly charges are just too high. There’s a charge for tv and a charge for music, and all these packages. I’ve never been a Verizon customer, so I’m not familiar.
So I gave the keyboard on the iPhone a go, and I didn’t have a problem with it. I guess it takes a more dainty touch… And you can’t deny the Internet on the iPhone. No other phone compares in that area. I’ve been perusing all these websites and blogs that I couldn’t on my BB Pearl, it’s just lovely. So I am the proud owner of the iPhone. And I have to say that AT&T’s service plans are great.
On to a few of my other gifts. I hit the outlets this week and optimized my Christmas cash. My first purchase were these patent red moccasin loafers for $20.00 from Nine West. I love moccasin loafers for those days where I’m feeling casual. These are really bright, so I might just wear them as an accent piece. I wouldn’t wear them with a red top, but maybe a my black shirt with small red pinstripes and black pants.
Or maybe I might actually trade these for my moms black leathers that she bought the same day. Or maybe I’ll steal them…
They’re way cheaper than the Tory Burch version though.
Remember I was saying that I wanted the Dooney & Burke Logo Lock Satchel.
Well, of course the leather option wasn’t available at the outlet, but they did have the Anniversary Signature version. I grabbed it at the half price of $150 dollars. This lady was following me around the Dooney outlet store. I heard her tell her friend that she was waiting to see if I would put the purse down. I had the last one, and no other colors were available. Can’t say I haven’t done the same thing.
I don’t plan to wear the shoes and bag together. It’s all just too bright. Well, maybe with the classic black and white working girl outfit. Well see…
During the outlet trip, I also hit the Michael Kors store, where I walked away with a pair of jeans and a few tops. Same at the DKNY store. Also bought some cute little casual sneaks from the Vans store.
