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.

The Wedding Dress
No, I don't mean the kind that the bride wears.
I was invited to my first wedding in.....well, a really, really long time. In another few years, I'm sure there will be another cycle of weddings as people embark on their second ones.
For the occasion, I broke out the H&M Garden Collection red dress that was purchased back in March. This is, ahem, the first time it's been worn outside the house. Now, are you ready for the funny part? The bridesmaids were in STRAPLESS, RED, FULL-SKIRTED dresses. Really. AND, it was at a Mexican restaurant with fat, paper roses everywhere. I totally blended in.
The lovely girl with me in her fanciest duds in Child No. 1. She was my date — she was much, much more excited than my husband about the prospect of attending her first wedding. It was a good girls' night out.
