I see London, I see France...

Some women buy tons of shoes. I only buy a pair when my old ones fall apart.

And my sneakers have finally fallen apart. The decorative straps started to snap apart two months ago. I tried gluing one, but now more are breaking. Sigh. Time to buy sneakers this weekend.

And it's not just that. Amanda's dad pointed out to me last week that I ripped a hole in the back of my jeans. Hopefully the people who saw my underwear thought I was making one of those I-buy-ripped-jeans fashion statements. Guess that means it's also time to go jean shopping.

I'll go out to the mall after work today and see if I find anything. I'm pretty picky about my shoes and I always have a hell of a time finding a good pair of jeans that are cheap and fit well. There is a doorbuster sale tonight and tomorrow morning at JCPenney, so maybe I'll have some luck!

Amanda is working tonight, so I'm not going to take her along. I'm kind of glad. She's been bugging me to go shopping together for many other things that I "need." But I don't want to turn this errand into a clothes shopping-o-rama. Although I like to have another person around for their opinion, I think in this case going alone is for the best.

sometimes you gotta do what you gotta do! and speaking of your jeans dilemma - maybe you can get crafty and patch it up w/ some cool fabric?

My Armani Xchange jeans had the same problem and i didn't wear for a whole year! i finally paid someone $10 to patch it and voila - SEXY new jeans ;) (it also helped when our new client at work became the marketing company behind A/X. Holler!)

Budgetsaresexy - Nice save on those jeans!! I actually got a great deal at the mall last night. I got a $40 pair of Vigoss jeans for only $9.99 at JCPenney. Shopping victory!
