  1. $45 for new attire is pretty good. I'm sure it can double as another impressive outfit for other occasions too. BTW I liked the shirt you wore to church today, meant to tell you that but got side tracked (imagine that!).

  2. Thanks Laura. Can I just tell you that my $45 bought: 1 pair of shoes $15
    Jacket: $14
    Necklace and Earrings $15
    Side Note: I also spent $100 on some jeans! There I admitted it... BUT I used a $100 Visa Giftcard so I didn't count it!
    Thanks for the compliment- I wasn't sure about the shirt this morning. BUT it was a bargain at $13.50!!!

  3. Okay, I had to pick myself up off the floor at the $100 jeans purchase!!! Gift card or no!!! You've become quite the fashion diva! You ALWAYS look cute no matter what you spend, but you've come a long way since the $20 pant-rule days!!! =) I just have to know if the stains are getting better- I can only imagine with two baby boys!! =) Four words: TIDE TO GO PEN!!! There's coupons for them all the time!! Love ya, girl!

  4. I can not believe you spent that on a pair of jeans, Niki. I was shocked!

  5. Yes I BOUGHT THE JEANS!!!! It was very hard handing over my $100 Visa Gift Card for ONE single item but I did it..... and after the initial guilt of not using the $$ for something practical...I made peace with my purchase.(but it wouldn't hurt if when you see my jeans you tell me they look fabulous and worth every penny) Although I will tell you that I almost hyperventilated when I saw the same brand jeans for less than 1/2 the price at a store down the street! BUT they didn't have my size so once again I justified my purchase!
    Can I just also say I feel most comfortable in jeans and wear them year round. All other clothes still basicly follow the same rule: $10 or less for shirts, $20 or less for pants! So there you go!
