Things I Love Thursday: 5.15.08

The Economic Stimulus Check Edition:
Today's edition of "Things I Love Thursday is dedicated to the beautiful things, both big and small, that I wish I could dedicate my U.S. government provided economic stimulus check to. In reality, it's probably going towards debt & groceries, because I've got a pizza, water, and barbeque sauce sitting in my fridge.

Miu Miu's Floral carved sandals from Net-A-Porter. I love the simplicity of the overall design of the shoe, combined with a distinct, beautiful, and complex heel. One of the charming aspects of this shoe is how I could see it incorporated in to the wardrobe for at least three out of four seasons. In the Fall they'd be lovely with a chunky tight and tweed skirt, while during the Summer and Spring they'd be the perfect heel to wear with all of those lightweight dresses. At $550, they aren't unreasonably priced for the quality and craftsmanship of this shoe. At $550, they're still a bit beyond my financial means (plus, I think my feet would just look fat in them).

Next up: Best Buy Video Sales. Great savings on movies always gets me-- going in to Best Buy is as dangerous as going in to Borders or Barnes & Noble. Right now they've got two of my favorite shows, The West Wing and Six Feet Under on Sale for $19.99 and $16.99 a season. Especially for Six Feet Under (which I've never seen on sale), those prices are AMAZING. There's a likelihood that part of my check may go to a few seasons.

New + Pretty Bras: Since picking up one at Trashy Diva's Lingerie store, I've kind of been in love with my Felina Bra. I'm looking to expand my pretty underthings with the Alexa Bra and the Victoria Bra.
