My visit to Forever21 wasn't as successful as I had initially hoped, but I did manage to get a few great pieces. I got a black knit Herve Leger inspired bandage dress. For those of you who really know me, it's not the type of dress I would typically wear, but for the price (and the sex appeal) how could I say no? I also got 2 fabulous statement necklaces, one which I wore out to brunch with Jennifer of JK Models, and bloggers Nicole, Ace & Anya.
I also bought 2 new books this week. A cupcake book (even though I'm pretty sure I have at least 2 others) from HomeSense and a novel, Ladies and Gentlemen, The Bible, a satire on, well, the Bible, posing difficult questions like, "How did Joseph explain Mary's pregnancy to the guys at work?".
But my favourite purchase lately would have to be the ShoeDazzle shoes I bought at the beginning of September, only to return them for a smaller size. They arrived while I was away!
My wonderful YSL knockoffs. Actually, I prefer these to the YSL version because of the heel. While the caged YSL heel is fabulous, these definitely suit my personality more. They're very comfortable to wear and they make me insanely tall! In them I'm close to 5'10"! Good thing I have a tall (6'1") boyfriend!

Great picks, all of them! I'm glad you went with the YSL knockoff heels. And tall boyfriends are excellent for wearing heels with, aren't they? ;-)
