I came across a dress in the Apricot Lane boutique that is one of those enigmatic dresses you can wear to just about anything…wedding, bridal shower, birthday party, date, and brunch. When you find a dress like that, don’t let it out of your sight! (You can order it or find this one at the boutique now, so you have it for spring parties….)
And that brings me to what’s been on my mind lately: purchasing things for the long haul. Too often I find myself drawn in like a tractor beam to beautiful, shiny, and gloriously trendy things. And then a year later, I wonder where all my money went and why I don’t have a thing to wear. One of my resolutions is to spend more time scrutinizing my purchases; even the trendy ones. If a dress can pull double, triple, or quadruple duty, I’d call that a must-have and money very well spent! (And a lot less fringed leggings and acid washed overalls in my closet that I have to stuff into a bag for donation.)
