Due to a fortuitous combination of extra holiday cash and Boxing Day price reductions, I was able to snag this sapphire blue Lululemon jacket after all... and I must say, I'm completely in love with it and so glad I took the plunge. I am so happy to finally be able to wear the double collar look I love on my Superdry jacket and not feel like I'm suffocating in a plastic bag. *This* jacket breathes and wicks moisure - huzzah!
I'm also totally taken with these AE bleached gray jeggings (Yes, 've copycatted yet another one of Una's recent buys). They remind me of why I initially loved the Gap jeggings, but they're even better for me because they feel more substantial and look more like normal skinnies. These are my white jeans alternatives. :)
In other news, I think this shade of blue has been added to my list of signature colors - first my draped anthro dress, then my NYE dress, my fur cowl, and now this jacket.
I'm just your average working stiff who loves nice things and hates to pay for them. This blog outlines my efforts to navigate that treacherous shopping/saving divide through swappin', thriftin', and even a little resellin'. Many of the pieces in my wardrobe cost me just $1! We've heard a lot about people "living above their means" in recent years; I'm championing the concept of living large *below* your means - whatever that means for you. :)
