I am in Chicago for the weekend - I came yesterday and am leaving tomorrow early in the morning. One of my "girls" moved to Chicago in March - so her DH could pursue a job opportunity. We have had a quintessential "girl's weekend" - shopping at Tiffany's, a visit to Stuart Weitzman and of course a stop at Kate Spade. I have not purchased Kate Spade retail since 1997 - when my BFF got married in Boston and I went to Needless Mark-Up and bought a purse, wallet and checkbook cover. I remember thinking that I had broken the bank that day. Flash forward 10 years - I clearly broke the bank the past two days - and I loved every minute of it! I bought shoes, jewels and stationary . . . I needed all of it - in case you wondered.
We all have coping mechanisms - and I have reacquainted myself with "retail therapy" - I don't care what anyone tells you - quality shoes are so different than payless! Nothing like fine Italian Leather to make it feel like Christmas everyday . .
