What a late one tonight. I was going to call it a night and finish tomorrow, but I am stubborn. Plus, my bedding is in the dryer, so I can’t go to bed yet anyway.

I went into Zara today hoping that they had something that I was looking at online in-store but they didn’t which was disappointing.

Buying and returning bothers me, so I try to avoid it when possible by trying on or checking out the items in-store.

So this week was another no-buy except for some Adidas ankle socks that I found at Simons today.

They are going to be my spring socks when bared ankles weather begins.

In case you missed it, I posted a rock style minimalist wardrobe last night. It was a fun one.
