Dear Blair…

27 October 2008 • Kimberly • Leave a Comment

In times when the economy is doing rather badly, and shopping addictions must be tamed, and even window shopping makes the shopper feel a bit guilt-ridden, there is only one thing to do: shopping for others. It’s much like being a personal stylist and getting the satisfaction of creating the perfect ensemble, without the guilt that comes with actually spending money on yet another (fill in the blank).

P.S.: It’s post #50! thank you all for taking the time to read and comment! each and every one of your comments have been very sweet & have made my day. 🙂 thank you!
