Some people work to cure cancer, others are fighting the war on poverty. Me? My selfless act is to help people spend money on stuff they need, like clothes and bags and makeup and, of course, killer shoes. But, that's not all. I like to eat. And complain (most specifically about how hard it is to be a mom). Oh, and obsess over the next perfect pair of shoes.

Oh, Poly
Seinfeld had Newman.
I have Poly.
Hate that bitch.
Sure, she acts like she's my friend — all cute and low-maintenance and even wallet-friendly. So, I get sucked in. We become pals and what happens? She turns on me. First triple-digit day and Poly — full name Poly Ester — gets hot and nasty.
Knowing that backstory, you can understand why I turned up my nose at the Tucker for Target collection.
Poly.
Yuck. Then, my friend — whose aversion to the synthetic is even stronger than my own — brought home a camisole.
Wha?
Naturally, I needed to go investigate. You see what happened. Poly, in this instance, was cute. And cheap. And....doesn't feel half bad. I'm giving her a second chance.
Outfit: Tucker for Target butterfly camisole; Mossimo Supply Co. skinny cargos; Diego DiLucca wedges; Rebecca Minkoff wrap bracelet.

As embarassed as I was to completely 180 my position on polyester, this damn top reeled me in. I know it isn't silk but it sure looks and feels like it. I love it on you!
You know, I don't mind Miss Poly. Of course, she's hot in the summer, but in the winter, that's a blessing in disguise. My real problem with her, though, is the static! Ugh!
