the Saks Fifth Avenue catalogue has arrived
Thank heavens!
My working wardrobe prayers have been answered. Or have they?
This outfit just "says it all," doesn't it? Perfect for my first day.
Ralph Lauren could "take me anywhere" in this little number. At $2498.00 it could also take me straight to the poorhouse. Nice though.
What say you? Too GOLD? Alexander McQueen has a lovely way with fabric. Prices too, it's $7980. Such a silly number. Why not $8000? I ask you.
McQueen again. The jacket goes for $1670. Much more casual, don't you think?
Mr. Armani is better suited (heh heh) to the workplace.
This beautiful jacket is only $1295. A steal.
Here is a perfectly reasonable dress for work from Burberry.
Sadly, $895 is more than I wanted to spend on my entire working wardrobe.
What about something from Donna Karan? The jacket is $3995.
Every working wardrobe can use a merino turtleneck.
But I think I can get one from J Crew for slightly less than $795.
Oh, Saks, I'm afraid that you might be nice to date, but I can't marry you.

I was drawn like a magnet to the clearance racks. Hey, atleast I wasn't in DRESS BARN!!
I love the Ralph Lauren dress but think it would look really hideous on my chubby body.
You've made me feel much better about the $60 t-shirts I bought at J.Crew this summer.
Maybe try Club Monaco? Kenneth Cole? Their sale markdowns anyway. Won't places like H&M be too cheapy/ trendy? Gosh, I'm excited for you!

I might have been able to wear it when I was eleven!
All that ensemble needed was a blown-out Roseanne Rosanna Danna hairdo.
Shuddering freely,
