I got some basics (that actually fit for once) at a great bargain at an outlet store. I also got a great purse and a blouse that is a little different from my normal style but is a step in the right direction. I am no where near a solid set of outfits yet, but I am getting there. Now if only I had more cash.
I finally got the clutter cleaned out and things are looking so much better! Now I just have to find a way to get these darn carpets clean. They need more than a simple vacuum, I wonder where is the best place to rent a carpet program.
