In the Pink

I didn't plan it, really I didn't!

I went shopping last night to pick up a few "special" things to take with me on my big trip next month.

First I came across these:


Then these were on sale:


And so was this:


A super soft pink leather jacket for under $50? How could I resist??

Purple is my favorite color, but pink runs a close second and I can just see this in the dog show ring with a black linen skirt! (Okay confession time - I have not one but two friends with almost the same jacket and so I already know how sharp it looks with the dogs!)

I am also way in love with this:


Stars!!!! But I want it in WHITE! But $185!!!???? I mean REALLY?? So I'm keeping an eye on eBay which is where I have bought several of my Dooney and Bourke bags at less than 1/2 price, New With Tags.

I am a confirmed GoodWill shopper. This was my first time in a mall in about a year. I just hate them, but once a year (always before the "big trip") I venture out to pick up a couple items that you just can't find at GoodWill.

Last year I bought a dressy, slim fit, black knee length chiffon skirt with a ruffle around the bottom to wear in the ring for Best of Breed. It was $95 - the most I've ever paid for a skirt. It fit perfectly, I love it and I've worn it a lot so it was worth it. But I can only pay those kind of prices once a year.

Should I mention that I wear my $95 skirt with a hot pink and black linen jacket that I paid $4 for? Or that the shoes that complete the outfit are black keds from Wal-Mart that also cost $4?

Knitting? Oh yeah... been working on Rosy and almost have Herbal Remedy completed. Off to KWA in a few minutes!
