Self Control

I got a new favourite site. It’s called topshop.com and it is genius. WHY DID NO-ONE TELL ME ABOUT THE INVENTION INTERNET SHOPPING? Sure, once I ordered some clothes from this cheap-ass store where my mum was buying clothes, but a site where I basically loved everything? New to me. I ordered for £173, counting on the fact that I’ll be returning some stuff, but kind of realizing that I probably won’t because it is all so PRETTY! Geebeezus. Now it’s just to wait and see how fast they are with delivering, if it’s easy to return, etcetera. But the site gets updated so fast (they already had a bunch of new rings today. Drool.) that there is little they can do wrong to throw me off the TopShop fanpage. Did someone say Facebookgeek?

 

Some things I ordered:






Did you see the bag?! Isn’t it amazing? I know, I know, old-lady-ish, but people, it’s a box bag and those are great ^^ It’s £30 but who cares? That’s why I spend half of my summer making burgers and selling ice creams.

Another thing I really wanted to order but couldn't was this. I want that, but I really don't want to press my chubby fingers in a size M and then have to have the ring surgically removed. I have SOME dignity.  


And these shoes.... I don’t know why I’m suddenly drooling over all these super-English flowery, romantic clothes but I’m guessing it has something to do with my crush on every male English celebrity of my age, my preference for the English language and my new found love for baking cupcakes. Like, how English can you get? In a few years I look like Mary Poppins.

My mum was sceptical about the shoes, but I’m sure I love them. They are light blue. And you know what? Friggin Taylor Swift (I almost typed Momsen ^^ Why is everyone called Taylor these days?) wears them! :O Owmygosh, you guuuuys! Loooooook.




I’m honest, I googled these pictures like an hour ago, it didn’t affect my decision to buy the shoes. I’m not THAT horrible, you know, even though the number of celebrity sites I check every day is scary high.
Something else that is pretty much the same. I found a supercool purse on Ebay. Another box bag. It’s my new addiction. Move over Harry P.



Isn’t it great? Say yes. Good boy. I COULD bid $8 and have those people send it to me. But I didn’t. It’s called self-control and after my online shopping spree today I decided that I wouldn’t have something that costs so little get shipped all the way from the US. Even though it is something I’ll never find over here in the middle of nowhere. Self Control.
