If Money Were No Object

I have no good vices anymore; I don't smoke, I don't do drugs, I rarely ever drink, I don't gamble, I don't have sex and all my clothes come from the clearance rack. The only habit I have that could even remotely be considered a vice would be shoe shopping.

Spring has arrived and I am getting antsy. I am dreaming of linen pants and summer dresses and big floppy hats and lots and lots of shoes. Here's what I'd buy if money were no object:



These are Lanvin from the Spring 2006 collection (that is ancient in the world of fashipn). I do not own a single thing in the color yellow because yellow combined with my skin tone looks horrendous, but I am oddly drawn to these shoes. These shoes also came in blue and in green and as long as money is no object I'll buy them all.



Despite the fact that they are a bit sailor-ish (no?) I could completely see myself kicking around town in these. Perhaps I'd be wearing a white circle skirt and a red tee. And, of course, I'd be carrying a big ass straw bag.



These are from Target and I really, really like them (red is my favorite color). Perfect for a date night or a girls night out or drinks in the city, or, or, or. You get the point.



Wide leg pants, a tailored shirt and red toenails.



These have an interesting shape to them and I wear alot of brown in the summer. I think I could work it.




These are here solely based on the fact that I need something to wear when I have to chase my child around the park. And, I love Puma (despite the fact that these will totally obscure my awesome pedicure). I kinda wish these came in a camo print because apparently Mr. Little Man's fashion sense is rubbing off on me.

What I am reading: A whole bunch of stuff! The gardening issue of Martha Stewart Living and I Like You: Hospitality Under the Influence by Amy Sedaris, which is BRILLIANT!
What I am listening to: Ingrid Michaelson - Masochist
