Retail Therapy

1. Bag 2. Espadrilles 3. Dress 4. Watch 5. Bracelet 6. Pillow

This week has not been my best. A lot of recent changes in my life have proven that I'm not as strong as I thought; I need to challenge myself to have more patience, confidence, strength, and gratitude. And of course, staying positive is key.

When things aren't going great, I like to treat myself to something pretty. Healthy or not, opening a pretty package (or 2) after work is my happy place. The question is not which item above to buy - but rather what order to buy them in ;) Ok fine, I already bought the dress, the espadrilles, and maybe a new clutch. Whoops! You know what they say, "when it rains it pours packages..." Totally made that up.

(speaking of something pretty - have you entered last week's giveaway? would love you forever if you did! xo)

  3. I LOVE those espadrilles! And I often go thrifting when I am down... it helps me get that retail therapy in without breaking the bank! But yes, I do love shopping! Hope things are looking up for you! :)

  9. Couldn't agree more with "When it rains, it pours packages." Just as long as you're not going for broke, a little retail therapy does ones soul (and maybe sole too) good. Hope you have a better end of the week, and don't forget, you are a lot stronger than you may give yourself credit for. xx
