My Checkbook Hurts

Uncategorized

March 15, 2010

Do you ever have those weekends where all you do is spend money??? Yes, that is exactly how this weekend played out for me… from birthday dinners to shopping for the home to grocery “necessities”, my debit card was being swiped over and over again ravaged and now I am poor all over again. However, I did check off some much-needed items in my “to-do shopping list” and have these FANTABULOUS fancies to show off:

My UBER cute new Steeplechase dress! I would’ve liked to keep it a secret, but I am just so excited that I just HAD to show it off =) I’m LOVING one strap dresses this season
And yes, after searching high and low all over Nashville for funriture for our downstairs media/bonus/living room, we FINALLY purchased a couch and loveseat!! It’s a chocolate brown cordurouy fabric with contrasting khaki piping… its so comfy, and it’ll be perfect for having all of our friends over for game days!!

Oh and by the way, for all you Starbucks lovers, DO NOT, I repeat DO NOT try the new Dark Cherry Mocha… it will suck you in and you’ll be an addict like me. {not to mention a tall with nonfat milk and no whipped cream has 210 calories- ugh my body is mad at me!!} Within 2 days, I managed to inhale 3 of these bad boys because they are the greatest inventions since sliced bread– your wallet will thank me!!!

  1. Kelly Marie says:

    I love that dress & the sofa looks so cute!!

  2. Cute dress! That will be perfect for Steeplechase.

    Umm, I am going to have to use some major self control to not rush out to Starbucks to try that drink! It sounds delicious!

  3. Juliana says:

    I LOVE that dress! How fun!

  4. Heather says:

    LOVE this dress, so cute.

  5. Kristen says:

    Yes, I have had those weekends..it is always a bit of a bummer on Monday when you add it all up!

    BUT the dress is VERY cute!

    Happy Monday – here's to a quick week!

  6. The Holmes says:

    I love the dress and the couch! The couch looks like the perfect place to curl up on and take a nap!

  7. Sarah Mina says:

    I am loving one-shoulder dresses right now too. That one is adorable–where is it from?

  8. Katie says:

    oh yes. i've had those weekends. especially when planning my wedding. BUT, now that my cpa, accountant (and finance major TOO, by the way!) has a say, i don'tsomuch get to have those weekends anymore. enjoy them while you can my dear!

    oh and the couch and dresses ARE fab finds!!!

  9. Emma says:

    Tash: I went to my local starbucks on Saturday and I fell for the same trap… They had these cute little samples of the cherry mocha with shaved chocolate and it was delish 😉 I vowed not to visit starbucks this week.

    Ps. I love.. Love the couch 😉

  10. Sarah says:

    I feel the same way about Sonic iced lattes! The nearest Starbuck's is 40 miles away, so this is what I have to resort to…and I think that they have WAY more than 210 calories!
    LOVE your new dress!

  11. Marian says:

    That dress it TDF!!! And I am loving the new couch!! Excellent pics my lady love

  12. Jen says:

    BEAUTIFUL Dress! I'm so loving one shoulder! My boss was telling me about that new Starbucks drink this morning too!

  13. I love that dress! I too am a sucker for one shoulder dresses!

    I spent way too much money this weekend as well!! At least we have pretty things!!

  14. Christine says:

    The dress and sofa are fabulous!!

  15. OMG I tried that Cherry Mocha too and OMG it is heaven!!! They had just brought out samples out last week when I was there and so tried it. Besides my tea, I think it has to be my favorite thing from there!! Ugh, addicting!!

  16. Sherrie says:

    I am kind of a binge shopper so when I go shopping I go big and spend lots at once. You are now making me want to try that drink. You know, forbidden fruit and all. lol
