* 638 - online shopping

I've been pretty parsimonious (hee hee always wanted to use that word somewhere after memorizing it for SATS, even though it has a bit of a "stingy" connotation) in my spending this semester. I think. I could be kidding myself, though, by classifying everything I buy as "essential". Coat rack and pretty rug for my room? Well justified. Two new pairs of boots? Of course, it's winter. Cute dress? Definitely!

I'm particularly proud of the order I just submitted at Urban Outfitters. Saved >$100 thanks to the heavily discounted sales rack. Plus a panda combo (shower cap & toothbrush holder) for Val just because she's in love with pandas. Heehee.



Also discovered that they have fabric studs, much like those on Elisa & Evelyn, except that ours are prettier and don't cost US$12.

Sneak preview of new studs to be up on Elisa & Evelyn as soon as I get all the photos done:
