What Time Is It?

It was time for me to do a little shopping with my Mom and my Sister while we were in Aruba. I haven't bought anything for myself in a while so we decided to leave the men and kids behind and get some retail therapy. I knew I wanted a watch but never thought I'd get a black one! This is a Technomarine Ceramique, I love it. It is a bit heavy but according to all the salespeople, big watches are all the rage now. It has a stop watch feature that I haven't an inkling as to how to use.




After hitting the jewelry store, we mosied on over to the Gucci store. I had my mind set on a large hobo bag. They had it but not in the color combo that I wanted. They lovely salesman named "Diony" (pronounced DI-on-NAY) directed us over to the sale wall. Sale wall, in Gucci? Yes my friends, it was true!!!! Half priced Gucci bags and not the ones you'd find on Canal Street in Chinatown. My Sister got a great steal on a white tote bag, perfect for Summer. I tried just about every bag on for size and decided on the "Scarf Bag" Now, I am not one to wear a scarf so I was not so sure the bag was "ME" but I have gotten so many compliments on it. I made the right choice. It is very roomy so I can throw all my crap in it. It also has great hardware on the handles. If only I could lose all this post babyweight (and by post, I mean 5 1/2 years worth), I would look so stylish!



Another beautiful ending to a perfect day in Aruba!
