I love clothes. I love shopping. I especially love shopping for clothes. And I don’t even need to be shopping with the intent to buy (God knows my bank account needs a break from time to time!). I even love window shopping. Or, with the help of high speed internet access, shopping on-line. So usually I don’t need to be tempted too badly to pull up my favorite shops and browse the latest looks. But when the stores email me to let me know something is new (or, heaven forbid, on sale!), how could I not click on that little link? It would be rude not to, right?
So I click around and find all the cutest things and when I find something I really like I, with a little help from ICQ, shoot the url to Simeon. His typical response is “nice.” I guess that means its good. So today we had a little conversation about the difference between men and women. It went a little something like this:
C: do you ever think about clothes? or is that just a girl thing?
C: I mean I know you dream about shorts and flip-flops in 0’s and 1’s but other than that?
S: It must be a girl thing. I don’t ever think about clothes. other then the ones I am wearing.
C: and you barely think about that huh?
C: such sad things
C: Old Navy, Gap, and New York and Co. email me and taunt me.
C: But at least they email me.
But I love my emails. I love the stores. I love knowing that someone is sending me email! Don’t make me take it away!
Sometimes I think if I didn’t subscribe to emails from clothing stores I wouldn’t get emailed.
That’s weird…..it says there are no comments, even though my last comment shows up when you click on the comments tag ….. hmmmm …. get your man to fix that bug! 😉
Ok, a couple suggestions. First of all, do all of your frivolous spending on clothes right now, because when you have your first child, you won’t have the extra cash to do so, or if you do, you won’t be able to stop yourself from spending it all on those adorable little outfits and coordinating shoes.
And secondly, remove yourself from those store email lists! They won’t taunt you if you don’t invite them in! 😉 Evil stores…..so tricky….
