My Big Splurge

Welcome back!

I haven’t shared, but this month is record breaking for me.  I surpassed all previous month’s incomes since I first began working from home.  So, to celebrate that and other various accomplishments over the past few months both personal and work related I just splurged on a new outfit for an upcoming speaking engagement from Chadwicks.

Check out what I got for just over $100 shipping included.jeans Here are the trouser jeans I have been wishing for, and to accompany them shirtI chose a beautiful purple 3/4 length sleeve blouse and some rockin suede mary-jane wedges.  I hate to admit this is the most I’ve ever spent on a pair of shoes, honestly, and I got 30% off.  Aren’t they gorgeous?  They will definitely get alot of wear this fall and winter.shoes

So, How’d I do? Does the look fit for a speaking event to teen girls?  I will be speaking on Saturday, August 23rd at 2 pm.

  1. Looks nice, purple is my favorite color. Great price with shipping. I would not be able to order jeans online, need to try them on first. Used to when I had a Spiegel card long ago and newport news was a fav site.

    The shoes look comfy, good luck with the speaking engagement. What is the topc for teenage girls, how long will it be?
