Well hello there, I have good news: I'm back!
Okay, I didn't actually go anywhere, I just fell off the face of the blogging earth for a couple of weeks. And, I have no excuse - actually I have many, including: laziness, lack of clean clothes, PMS, a wild weekend with friends and the following days of recovery, work, life, etc. etc. - but none of them are good reasons
.
But, like I said, I'm back - and with a new dress to boot.
This dress forced me to break my self-imposed shopping hiatus, but it wasn't my fault - I swear! I was walking through the Rideau Centre with my Director on the way to a trade show one afternoon and it was the first time I had set foot in a mall in weeks. As we passed Mexx she pointed to the dress and said: "You need that dress, it's such a Kate dress." I immediately cursed her for being a bad influence and continued on my way.
Fast forward eight days and the dress was mine.
I'd spent eight days thinking about the dress and telling myself that I didn't really need it, although I wanted it. So Friday afternoon I trekked back to Rideau and tried it on hoping that it wouldn't fit, or would look horrible; sadly that wasn't the case.
So there you have it, the tale of my latest splurge. I really do love the dress, the colour and cut are perfect! I wish I could wear it everyday (who knows, if laundry continues to win the battle of Kate v. Laundry, I just might)
