ESPIRT
What was the best store in the early 90’s? Where you could get rad tote bags, floral dresses, and pre-shredded tee-shirts- and where everything said ‘ESPIRT.” The last one closed near me in high school but I still have fond memories. And then, as if conjured by the elves said to inhabit the area, there…
Why you should shop all the time
First of all, I’ve spent the last two months curled in fetal position due to work stress. Not good. While I’ve still be dressing like a Boss, I just didn’t have it in me to take pics and I looked like a sad Zombie Mom/Lawyer. Grim shit. But it’s fall! And tights!! This delightful tweed…

The greatest myth about Forever 21 is that it’s target audience is 21 year old’s. The clothes are really geared towards middle schoolers, who have limited budgets, questionable taste, and 4% body fat. So, when a certain old lady goes wandering in there, you think, what the fuck? I am about 20 years too old…
Clear the Rack & Exercise that Nordstrom Card
It’s here again!! My most beloved sale event is ON. 25% off all clearance, some of which are already marked at more than 75% off retail. I snuck away from work to get to Nordstrom Rack as it opened so I could harvest the best, uh, fruit? Where is this metaphor going…. Anyway, an…
