Kate Moss

don't you hate when...

>> I've been wearing leggings for a while now -- under my knee-length shorts, under my dresses, under my skirts... the list goes on (don't worry, I don't do the cliche leggings-under-denim-mini look).  And I wear them a heck of a lot, too.  In fact, I wear them so often that even my fashion-daft friends ask, "What's with the tights?"  So you can imagine my surprise when Urban Outfitters put them on the market.  Okay fine, I wasn't that surprised, just a little upset.  Whenever Urban puts an accessory on the market, especially when it's only $10, it seems like next thing I know everyone and their mom is wearing it.  At least they chose to sell the opaque leggings, rather than the sheer ones -- those just look bad.  Me, I prefer the exercise ones that you can get from Target for under $10.  But that's just me.  And hopefully it will stay just me.

be still my heart.

>>  Remember those Stella boots I drooled over a month ago?

Boots_4 >>  Remember those Stella boots I drooled over a month ago? Satine, temptress that she is, has a precious few in stock.  One of the pairs is in my size.  What to do?  Drop my jaw, let my tongue roll out to the floor, and pop my eyes out of my head, Looney Tunes-style.  $795 boots, I wish.
