Clothing and Shoe Haul: Favorite Buys for March 09

It was a gorgeous day today with the sun shining and the smell of spring in the air.  I woke up in a great mood and decided to take it easy today and accomplish only one or two things instead of the mad dash to get twenty things knocked off my 'to do forever from hell list'.  I wore my favorite new buys of the month which is a silky longer top that i purchased at one of my favorite stores in Toronto called Trove.  I paired the top with J Brand straight leg dark denim jeans and I also wore a new purse from Trove in cream, I adore it.  I walk into that store any chance I get without my children and I never walk out without a purchase.  I also wore my brand new girly patent leather and cork wedge shoes from Betsey Johnson, Betseyville.  They give me the lift that I prefer without compromising on comfort and I really adore the hearts in the front.  Yes, I did notice that I put the shoes on the table but they were brand new, just out the box and never worn.

I didn't have my husband or children today and I had no agenda.  It felt really good but weird at first.  I felt like I was doing something wrong or I was forgetting something.  Once in a while us moms need days like these to ourselves.  They are few and far between and we savor every minute because it reminds me that I'm still a woman and not just mamma or wife.
