Is the high of a new purchase (or the excitement of a possible new purchase) akin to the beer goggle effect when drinking alcohol??

Jacket, Kohls. Denim, Kohls. Shoes, Old Navy.
I am not even kidding when I say that I nearly giggled when I tried this jacket on in the store. I thought it was perfect. I loved it. I loved peplum. I loved......the magical endorphins that must have been coursing through my veins as I looked into that store mirror.
Mirrors lie. Apparently my own eyes prefer to decieve me. But photographs; not only can they speak a thousand words, they never lie (unless, you know, altered by Photoshop.)

Wow! That jacket is from Kohl's?? It's adorable...perfect with those green jeans!
ReplyDeletei love the pants. and i like the jacket. it is a fun cut.
ReplyDeleteLove the colour of those pants. And I would love to see the front of the jacket - I'm sure it's not nearly as bad as you think it is :)
ReplyDeleteI think that this is what makes me wary of retail shopping. Sometimes it is the way they are lit and merchandised in the store that leads us astray.
ReplyDeleteI can't imagine that jacket is as bad as you think. From what I can see, it looks cute and I'm loving the pants. They're fantastic!
