I'm finally home! Yeah!!!! I was able to sleep in a tad at the hotel in Atlanta yesterday, did a little work in the morning and got a pedicure at the hotel spa before lunch. My little piggies need some extra attention after all the walking & standing I've been doing this week!
Of course, I bought a new coat as well - you guys are bad for my wallet. I managed not to buy one in Atlanta, trying to be financially responsible and all. When I got in the car in Raleigh I called my mom and was telling her I forgot to bring a coat and she reminded me that I left my black dress coat in Florida last year and never found it. I totally forgot that, so first thing I did was hit the local Macy's with my coupon and looked everywhere for the coat I previously posted, but it was nowhere to be found. I tried on about 20 different coats and found one just as cute and it's hanging on my office door as we speak. Regular price $280, I paid $99. Gotta love a good sale.
Another reason it's good to be home - when I checked my mail last night the vest I ordered from Boden in August was there - it was back-ordered all this time and it finally came!!! I'm wearing it today and have received about 10 compliments on it and one threat to steal it. It's that good.
When I checked my inbox this morning at work there were confirmed reservations for the Red Rock Resort & Casino in Las Vegas. Looks like I'm headed to Vegas in January. Wonder if I'll need a coat?

Yay for new coats! love those polka dots!
ReplyDeleteToo cute! Just curious...what color shirt do you wear under it?
ReplyDeleteRight now I'm wearing a white cotton long-sleeve t-shirt under it. I think a white dress shirt would look good with it too.
ReplyDeleteI say "forget something" when you go to Vegas so you just HAVE to buy something :)
ReplyDeletei love this. i wanted it for a long time and had to just give up on it. :) now that i'm pregnant i'm not sure it's worth buying right now. it's SO adorable!
ReplyDeleteLove Boden!! I am actually wearing one of their sweaters as I type this :) Darling vest you have there!
ReplyDeleteI get a high over good deals like you did on your coat! Good for you!
ReplyDeleteI will be doing Vegas in February to feel free to update with some fab Raleigh-Girl in Vegas tips post-trip :-)
ReplyDeleteVegas will definitely be cold in January! I have gone the past 2 winter breaks and my friends never believe me and always freeze in the taxi line! I have always canted to check out Red Rock. Can't wait to hear about it!
