How is your Memorial Day weekend so far?

Hello everybody, I just wanted to write a quick post to wish you all a wonderful Memorial Day weekend, even if the first day is almost gone. I meant to post something yesterday but I got caught up in errands and my hubby came home eerly from work, so I didn't even turned the computer on until now.

We are staying in the city for the weekend, just seeing friends and relaxing. I vowed to stay away from Jcrew this weekend as I placed two Internet orders a week ago and bought the only thing that I kind of "need" at this point two days ago (the lightweight Oxford tunic, review coming up next week). Plus I'm kind of disappointed in the new catalog, I think we had enough of ruffles and I was hoping for some bright colors and prints.

This morning I went to Bloomingdales for a change of perspective on clothes (I tend to go to Jcrew and other few neighborhood stores only) and also to see if they had sales on Longchamp bags as I need to replace an old white "pliage" that is now almost gray.
The sale wasn't that great (and no sales on the bag that I wanted to try) but I got a ton of compliments from sales people and customers on my outfit. I was wearing the giraffe-print shorts (first wear) with an old Zara short-sleeved shirt (gray) and Kade Spade "fish" flats. I should have taken a picture of the outfit but I didn't, so maybe I will do it a posteriori tomorrow and I will post it next week. So, that did my day and I didn't buy anything because I felt so great. My husband says that it's normal that sales people compliment you because they want you to be in a good disposition to sell you stuff, but we ladies know to make the difference between someone trying to flatter us and a genuine compliment, right? And those were definitively compliments!

Sorry, no pics today.

Have a wonderful rest of Memoral Day weekend!
