KNIT LOUNGE

Fabulous

As a pretty firm rule I have given up wearing high heel shoes. I think it has something to do with the aging process. I no longer wish to make painful physical sacrifices on the alter of beauty when it comes to shoes but this does not mean that I am going to give up style. That would be criminal. 

There is a fabby little store in Key West named Wander Lust that carries a lovely assortment of stylish flats. And I just had to have this pair in dusty silver. I think of them as an early birthday present to myself.

 

The shop owner even gave me a discount since my special day is just around the corner on the 14th.  She is a sweet heart. On Saturday, I wore them with my taupe linen trousers and Blush. I got compliments on both. How cool is that???!!!

Like I said I've been doing my best to stay away from Ross because I really don't need another thing. My closet is beginning to bulge.

Well last week I had to go in there because a *Client of mine needed a few things from there.

As I was walking toward the check out line I spotted a terrific dress hanging on the rack for 12.99. It was hard to keep going without the dress but I did.

The remainder of the week was so full that I completely forgot about the dress.

Saturday morning rolls around and I decided to take Techboy out for breakfast at Goldman's Deli  which happens to be on the other side of the parking lot from Ross.

As we were eating I remembered the dress. On a whim, I thought if the dress is still there I'll take it home with me though I did not expect it to be and if I had to hunt for more than a few minutes I'd give up the chase. 

I go in. The dress is still in the same place on the rack!!! I slip it on in the fitting room. 

It fits. And I found out that it looks like a tunic over my white linen pants that I just happened to be wearing. Two looks for the price of one. How cool is that??!!!

 

On my way out I took a side trip to the shoe department and picked up a pair of $6.00 black flats that complimented the dress! 

In less then 15 minutes and 20 bucks later I scored two new outfits.  I love it when things come together like that!
