Sad day at Nordies...

So I decided I needed some retail therapy, and I had some Nordstrom gift cards, so I thought I'd go buy some new sexy shoes. I was set on a pair of these GORGEOUS brown Miu Miu booties. They are sooo amazing. They're $650.00 I know that sounds outrageous to some people... but I swear they are worth it!

So, I was all set to get them, and they swiped my 3 gift cards and CRAP 2 of them are each for $100 not $200 like I had thought. :( (the other one was for 85... I knew that)

I soooo could not afford to spend 400 bucks on a whim for a pair of shoes that... lets face it I really don't need.
They were just going to be a fun splurge... and retail therapy! :)

I left with sad little empty hands. :(

Now I need to find a way to make a quick $200 to get the shoes... they need me, I can tell.

:(
