  • Townshoe Loafers;
  • Nine West taupe wedges;
  • Marc by Marc Jacobs backpack;
  • Coach leopard print double-zip wallet my husband gave me;
  • Banana Republic ivory and leopard skinny belts;
  • all my items from LOFT;
  • Franco Sarto peep-to flats;
  • Banana Republic cobalt drape pants;
  • Banana Republic black and white color-block dress;
  • Banana Republic light colored, striped, color-block sweater; and
  • Banana Republic black sleeveless top (so simple, but so perfect)

Happy New Year! (December comings and goings)

Happy New Year to all of you!!! - I hope all of you have had a wonderful holiday season with your friends and family and are ready to start fresh with any resolutions you have.

To start off the new year, a recap of my December comings and goings =)

Goings - 5
  • Doc Marten combat boots - sold them to fund my future pre-loved Speedy
  • Doc Marten loafers - sold them to fund my future pre-loved Speedy
  • Adidas work out top - don't like it anymore 
  • Esprit dress - don't like it anymore
  • Purple top - doesn't fit the same anymore
Comings - 1
  • Stuart Weitzman loafers - given to me by a family friend - this DOES put me backward by one pair of shoes towards my goal, but I mean, they're Stuart Weitzman's, c'mon haha.

Christmas comes early with a pair of Stuart Weitzman's

It's funny how things work out - despite letting go of 2 pairs of shoes in a week, I was given a pair of almost, brand-spanking new, Stuart Weitzman Geek Loafers in black patent leather.



Yes, I'm up one again in shoe count, but... who can resist? The best part is, I think they will be great to replace all the outfits I made with my Doc Marten loafers, and will be a fantastic everyday shoe since they are so incredibly comfortable!

The start to my pre-loved Speedy 35/40 fund!

After confirming how much I want a pre-loved Speedy, I went through some more of my things and actually started to list things for sale. I started with shoes since I have way too many and it seems to be the most difficult area for me to make a dent in.

The first item to contribute to the fund are my Doc Marten combat boots. I had come up with a number of cute outfits for them, but still hadn't worn them, so I decided to let them go and help them find a home where they could be loved and fully used.


Second on the list is another pair of Docs - my 'second chances' shoes! I did make awesome outfits with them and wore them a few times this year, but over all, I didn't wear them as much as I thought I would. Off to a new home they went!



I hope I'm able to keep this momentum up and continue with the selling. I sort of regret not trying to list my previous items I let go, for sale, but onward and upward!
