red Jessica McClintock dress circa June 2010

I wish I could explain in words how much I absolutely incredibly just adore this dress. I started looking at in April 2010, but at $90, I couldn't justify buying this dress as an unemployed member of society. But I was drawn, over and over again, to this dress and finally bought it in June for $73 and change-- the most I have ever spent on any article of clothing, I believe.

It's even cuter with a belt, believe it or not.

black patterned Express dress circa 2009

This dress was bought for the purpose of the 2009 NYE party. It's so perfect as a NYE party dress.

gold sparkly dress from Wet Seal circa 2009

I also have the same dress in black. Yes, I realize that I have a problem.

white Guess dress circa 2009

I love this dress although it only fits me because I'm pretty short. Lauren tried it on first on our shopping trip at 3rd Street Promenade, and it was definitely too short for her! After all, Lauren's 5'6". The shortness of the dress makes the dry cleaning bill much easier on the wallet. ;)

Red flow-y dress from the now-torn-down Macy's in Santa Monica Plaza circa 2005.

The dress moves so beautifully. It flows like a dream!

H&M blue party dress circa October 2008.

I love this dress so much that I spent my Halloween costume money on this dress instead. It reminds me so much of Alice in Wonderland. Not sure why... perhaps it's the mixture of the blue with the roses that Alice hand-painted red? I also own the skirt version of this in pink. Yes, I realize I have a problem.

So I wore this dress as my costume... what I was dressed up as, I have no clue!

Black Forever 21 dress circa 2007. I wish the details of the bodice showed up more clearly, but it is exquisite!

Blue Charlotte Russe sparkly dress circa September 2006

One of my favorite dresses thus far. A favorite of my friends too! ;) I lend it out often and forget where it is...

Starting Remarks

I have many issues in my life, as does just about everyone else I know. But I have a little shopping problem that takes away most, if not all, of my issues along with my disposable income. I'm starting this blog to chronicle where my disposable income goes. :)
