Tempted...

One of my resolutions for the New Year was to cut back on my spending (i.e. shopping), and I must say that I have been doing REALLY well. My success is probably due to the fact that I haven't had time to set foot in a mall due to my crazy school schedule, but I'm still rather proud of myself.

One of the benefits (or curses) of living in Florida is the plethora of outlet malls. Fortunately for me, I hate driving so I am never tempted to make the hour drive to Orlando's outlets. However, there is a rather fabulous outlet mall that lurks just minutes from the psychiatric hospital where I go for clinical training. I have managed to resist it's alluring pull the 9 months I've been in training. And then today I spied a classmate wearing the most darling pair of red flats adorned with hot pink bows. When I complemented her on them, she informed me that they were Kate Spade and from the outlet! So I spent the rest of Stats class daydreaming of the outlet mall and the fabulous Kate Spade shoes just waiting to be adopted.

I know I should be good and just stay away. But all it would take is one little detour after I get done with training on Friday...

Sigh.
The shoe that started it all. These are not really my style but they looked adorable on my classmate. And they opened Pandora's box of possibilities.

I was crushed:( The nice lady did say they were hoping to bring shoes back soon. I would hope! Oh well I found some other great deals though but you REALLY had to look!

Oh my goodness, so cute! You could totally pull them off! I wish there were more outlet malls around Omaha, where I live. The closest {which has poor selection} is like, 3, maybe 4 hours away!
