Grandma's Boy is a hilarious movie. If you haven't seen it, you probably should. There's this character in the movie named JP who wears a full length black leather trench coat everywhere. At one point, there is a great exchange where the main character ends up saying, "Wow JP, that's a great outfit. How much do clothes cost in the Matrix?" I tried on this dress at Nordstrom today, and I can now inform you all that clothes cost $355 in the Matrix. I love Theory, but wow. Just wow.
Nordstrom is carrying this brand called "Milly" now that I'm not really familiar with, but their stuff is really intriguing. They have some really hot stuff, like these leather pants and this sweater. I might actually order the sweater. I would have a harder time justifying a leather pants purchase, but I still love them. However, Milly also had some stuff that I just didn't "get", like this horrible dress (1985 prom reject) and this skirt. I can kind of see what they were going for with the skirt, but the reality is that it would only look good on about two people on earth, and they're both skeletons. Either way, I like the designers for taking risks and being interesting.
I was super disappointed that Nordstrom only had about 10 swimsuits available in the store. I understand that it's the end of fall, but where is all the resort stuff? Come on! I guess I'll just wear a swimsuit from last year and hope nobody at the resort in Mexico notices. If they do, I don't know what I'll do. I'll just die of embarrassment, I guess.
I love fall and winter in the shoe department because the smell of leather is absolutely intoxicating. Despite being completely inappropriate for the season, I'm very drawn to these. I know they would be a violation of one of my fundamental shoe rules (Jimmy Choo for open toe pumps, Prada for closed toe pumps), but perhaps I would make an exception for these. On the other hand, I should probably buy a new refrigerator instead. Our ice maker is broken, and Mario keeps hitting it with a rolling pin to keep it from making this loud, annoying grumbling noise.
