A very exciting and unexpected purchase.

I get so many magazines that I can't keep up and I can't throw them away until I read them.  With that being said, I was going through Scene magazine's Fall 2011 issue www.scenebayarea.com  a few months after I received it and a Nanette Lapore www.nanettelepore.com dress in a lovely robins egg blue, caught my eye.   I immediately ripped the picture from the magazine and ran to the computer to buy this dress, SOLD OUT, ugg.  I went to the secondary market and the only one I could find at the time was a size 2 (I wish).  I have the picture hanging on my bulletin board as a reminder of the one that got away.  
I was at the Nordstrom Rack www.nordstromrack.com the other night to meet with a client and I am digging through the dresses and THERE IT WAS in my size and for only $59.70 which is a far cry from the $398 I was prepared to pay.  I guess my bulletin board is now turning into my vision board.  I better get my property tax bill off of it!
