Re: QOTD Thursday (Shopping)
I mentioned this in the bumps/babies post... After the NT Scan I finally bought something for the baby, a completely overpriced (I'm actually embarassed how much this pillow cost), but I've been obsessed with it for over a year and swore if I ever got pregnant again I would treat myself to it and decorate the nursery around it....
I also went on a spree with Piperlime, Gap, and Old Navy on tuesday because they were having 20%, 20%, and 30% off respectively... (and Gap is having 30% today code GAPFRIENDS)... this was one of my purchases...

This dress:
I definitely didn't need it, but thought it would be great for holiday parties and whatnot.
That pillow is adorable, though. Your baby's nursery is going to be gorgeous!
I went a little crazy with the LOFT/Ann Taylor 40% off deal. One of my impulse buys was this dress.
And today I'm wearing this new necklace.
ETA: Links instead. The pictures were going wonky on me.
I stocked up on makeup during Sephora's F&F sale.
I also just ordered these wellies from Jcrew, and red fleece liners to go with them:
I'm hoping they can serve both as rain and snow boots, b/c all the snowboots I've seen so far are UGLY.
I also ordered a couple pair of pants from JCrew, and this shirt after I saw Robin wearing it on HIMYM on Monday. It was super cute on her:
Plane tickets to Vegas - does that count? I very rarely buy anything for myself. Oh, wait, two weeks ago I got two new pairs of flats at Loehman's. I was so excited because I got both pairs for $57 when they would have cost $180.

the second pair is like these, but not suede. Ellen Tracy

I needed some fall pajamas, so I got these:
with this cami, because I like to layer in case I get hot at night:
From Soma, of course!
Eek, it's been a really long time since I bought something for myself just as a treat. I don't know if this counts because I bought it out of necessity for nursing, but the last thing I bought for myself was this top from Old Navy.
Baby #2: Surprise BFP 9.19.12, EDD 5.24.13, natural m/c 10.19.13 at 9w
I got this dress for the Holiday season. It was 40% of at the Limited, and I feel so Mad Men-y in it.
The last thing I bought for myself was maternity pants. ha! Silly expanding waistline!
The last thing that was a just for fun was probably my magnetic nail polish.
I do intend on being slightly silly at the VIB sale I'll be going to at Sephora this weekend. Shhhh, don't tell Derek!
We'll just not tell H about this little fact, m'kay?
The last thing we bought was this bad boy
It was an amazon daily deal that we scooped up. Absolutely no necessity, but just fun for us. Early Christmas was the excuse.
I just bought an iPhone 4s. I went on a total shopping spree when we were in Vegas at the end of September. My favorite were these bad boys:
I get tons of compliments on them, including from the male partners at my firm, which I will admit throws me off my game a bit.
Love love love those! Who makes them?
I'd say yes. I just bought tickets to MI for Christmas--and holy hell, am I excited!
Circa Joan and David. I bought them in a wine red color, but I think they also came in black. They are super comfy too!
I love them too! Very cute!
Oh that is a purchase for you! Wall paper removal sucks! I've done it a few times and I hope to never do it again.
