  • Okay if you want to participate feel free. What have you recently bought or have your eye on (wanting to buy) Pictures are great, they make the thread more fun.

    Bought- A new pair of sunglasses at Ross, Storage totes from Target and some exercise pants. Nothing too exciting.

    Want- New clothes something cute for summer but holding out so I can get it in a smaller size(s)!! And if we had a wish category it would be new car
  • First of all, WOO for Shel Silverstein reference. Unless your name means something other than the title of his book He's pretty much my favorite person who's ever lived, ever. Except maybe Gandhi. ... Anyway.

    Recently bought: iPod Shuffle. My old 4thG 20 gig black and white one was totally impractical for anything but playing in the car or on a dock at home... I needed one that could travel easier, and the new shuffles are so darn cute and affordable. Mine's the blue one of these:



    Looking to purchase: I have my eye on a few books but I'm not letting myself buy anything until I reach one of my weight loss reward goals. Saving money to buy lots of fun clothes when I can no longer wear my current ones! Ultimate want-to-purchase is one of these:



    Honda Fit!
  • If I go back too far I'll fill the whole page. I just stick to the last few days!

    This gorgeous amazingly low cut (like entering belly button region, lol) kimomo sleeve cashmere sweater from Saks. Mine is black...



    The model is wearing it conservatively, the V is MUCH lower than that And it's open in the back.


    Suede over-the-knee slouchy boots
    Ann Marino grey/black patent stiletto round toe pumps
    Some ORLY nail polishes
    A couple Daisy Fuentes bras (one of them is almost completely clear and I needed it to wear with the cashmere sweater, lol)

    I never want something longer than a few days before I buy it or my boyfriend picks up my hints, I'm terrible!
  • I just bought a new workout shirt.. it helps me get motivated. I want to buy a heart rate monitor but I'm waiting till I earn it as it is one of my rewards.

    I am super excited to start buying new clothes when I get down to my new size in March! I haven't bought anything in so long because I want to save the money for my new smaller wardrobe!
  • If I were to list everything I want to buy, this would be a looooong thread haha. But right now I'm itching to buy summery dresses/swimsuits for the cruise I'm going on in March... only it doesn't make sense to buy if I'm going to lose more weight... hmm
  • Bought: Fabulous elliptical trainer! No more dragging out to the gym in the freezing cold, and a TON of clothes on megasale at Old Navy.

    Want: A kazillion ballet flats in a variety of colors and patterns. I am so addicted!
  • suitejudyblueeyes- I never thought anyone would know! Great book. By the way I love my shuffle!

    ThePrettyOne- That sweater is HOT!

    Bikini Dreader - Thats why I bought new workout pants to motivate me, I bought them so that meant I have to wear them and since I have them on I will workout! So far that logic is working for me...

    bodyTOObootylicious- I could go on all day with things I wish I had!! We are going on vacation in May so im excited to slim down and look halfway fab in my summer clothes. Where are you going on your cruise?

    mandalinn82- I love having my eliptical at home on day's I feel ugg I can go workout without driving to the gym. The only thing with me is I tend to workout harder at the gym. Im slack at home....
  • Falling up: We changed the cruise line at the last minute, but now everything is finalized: we leave from Miami, FL and go to Samana in the DR, 2 stops in the Virgin Islands (Tortola and St. Thomas), and then a private island in the Bahamas. I'm so excited!! I'm going to get to swim with dolphins, go snorkeling, etc... I've been to the DR before but never on a cruise and never been to the Virgin Islands or Bahamas. Can't wait!!
  • I bought 2 pairs of Nine West shoes. They're 4 inch pointy toe pumps. They're the same pair just differnt colours. One pair is brown and the other is metalic silver! They were on sale too!

    I also bought a new painting to hang over my bed, it's huge and I'll be paying my parents back for a year...but totally worth it. I'm also in the process of getting some photographs my bro's gf took framed so I can hang them on my wall. I bought a house in may and have been decorating like crazy!
  • DH bought me a nice sweater and jeans for Christmas!! And I'm going underwear shopping today!!

    I would love to buy a treadmill or an elliptical machine!!
  • I bought a desk, which I love & sorely needed for studying upstairs in my townhouse. We converted our spare bedroom into a big office and now the small office fits my new elliptical machine I got at xmas! I really love the way the house is setup now, I hardly want to leave the house in the morning!
  • I want a new swimsuit and goggles that don't let in water!
  • Bought - Some new workout clothes! I also just bought a new pair of Nike shox. I loooveeee 'em.

    Want - I cannot wait until I can get some boots with the fur to fit around my calves!! lol It's so frustrating to find the cutest pair of boots and everything else fits but the damn zipper wont zip up all the way!! Grrr..one day!

    I feel your pain! I love shoes, especially boots. I want to cry when I can't zip any of the cute boots up all the way. It is so discouraging. Here's to beating the zippers!

    That sweater is HOT!
    Thanks!! I initially wore it to a club, but I have to wear a cami under it for "day" wear


    I just ordered these 2 tops, a couple items for my Vegas trips in a couple weeks! The red/rhinestone halter is probably not something I would order without trying it on, but I was at a party last night and this girl was wearing it (I know because when I saw her I asked her where she bought it, and I went to the website today, lol) and it fit soooo perfectly, I had to have it!!
