A: I’ve been stress shopping for my trip and now I’m convinced I need a raincoat. I def need a shopping ban.
M: Your Madewell jacket will be FINE! And a small umbrella!
A: What did you buy?
M: Oh just two dumb dresses and some definitely stupid pants.
A: It’s not like they don’t sell raincoats in London, right?
M: I was like WTF immediately after.
A: Ha. It’s the dopamine hit.
M: Wait, only one stupid dress and definitely stupid pants and probably mistake jeans.
M: I didn’t even REMEMBER.
A: Ha! I had two Amazon boxes show up last week and I was like...I have no idea what I ordered.
M: Probably too short and unflattering:
A: That’s a cute shirt.
A: H&M never works for me.
M: It works fine on me but THESE WON’T:
A: They call them "ankle length." Do they not know where ankles are located?
M: I don’t know about you but my ankles are right below my knees. I’m a medical marvel!
A: You really are.
M: And I just don’t need these except my other black jeans are unwearable tight:
A: The jeans look good!
A: I did buy a great new toiletries kit because mine was on it’s last legs:
M: Oh damn I need that.
M: I travel so much and my toiletry sitch is sad.
A: It’s really good - I got the medium sized bag.
M: Oh! I also bought a travel backpack in a fit of rage.
A: Ha! Me too!
M: What did you get? I got something basic and simple because I was mad about the Lo & Sons one that’s TWO HUNDRED STUPID DOLLARS FOR A NYLON BACKPACK. Instead, this:
A: I got this one:
A: And haaaa, I was mad at the Dagne Dover $175 backpack which I want. Badly.
M: Oh I am mad about that one TOO.
M: Yours is cuter than mine but I needed something bigger. Basically big enough for my actual purse, laptop, chargers, giant headphones, etc.
A: Mine is small but perfect for a carry-on since I don’t need room for a laptop.
M: It’s cute though! I just have to schlep so much for work or kids.
M: Mine is Not Cute and I’m mad about that too but it was $30.
M: And has a luggage strap.
A: Nice! Fuck $200 backpacks.
M: It literally does all the same shit and has like 2000 positive reviews.
A: Yup
A: I love that we both went on the same backpack rage journey.
M: So much rage.
M: I’m also pretty mad at those Away suitcases.
M: FYI
A: OMG DO NOT GET ME STARTED ON THOSE.
A: I WANT ONE BUT GODDSDMNTTT.
M: Do you know that one time the only reason I made a connecting flight was because a girl was sitting on the jetbridge with three flight attendants and a tool box because the battery was stuck and you have to remove it to check the bag? They had to take her dumbass Away bag apart.
M: But also it was lilac and sooooo cute.
A: UGH
M: Also I know people that have them and guess what it’s just a suitcase.
A: WELL, FUCK YOU TOO, AWAY BAG.
A: It’s the suitcase version of those clear vitamins.
M: OH MY GOD THOSE VITAMINSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS
M: maybe I need an Instagram break.
A: THEY HAUNT ME
A: 💊💊💊
M: I blame goddamn Goop.
A: Every single day.
Whoa, what are the clear vitamins? Also - would you consider a post about how you store all your jewelry, or some good jewelry storage options? I hate my jewelry boxes with a passion but am having a hard time coming up with anything good and somewhat reasonably priced - especially I need something to separate out all my earrings.
ReplyDeleteSorry, I meant to link it! We are talking about Ritual Vitamins (which I haven't tried.) As for jewelry, girl, I have no idea. All my jewelry is in a sad tangle on my dresser.
DeleteMy husband bought me a jewelry box for Christmas one year (because I leave my jewelry ALL over our house), and while I kind of hate it (it's big, kind of ugly, and just takes up too much space,) it really does do a great job of organization.

This entire post spoke to me on a spiritual level. Esp the last two lines.
ReplyDeleteThe rage is real.
DeleteOMG, that Dagne Dover backpack is so cute! But so expensive. I hope I forget about it.
ReplyDeleteUNSEE. UNSEE. (I love the red one.)
DeleteHehe! I recommend an Instagram break guys! My coworker told me she went off it in May and I followed suit and didn't miss it! I can use my time more productively. I just signed in the past few days and it was nice to see babies had been born, etc but I will go off soon.
ReplyDeleteI need to do a total and complete social media cleanse...3 audiobooks I had on hold on my library app hit within 48 hours so I should just jump right in now and enjoy the stories.
ReplyDeleteI bought an A-line dress with pockets from H&M and I love it. But that is it.
Added the toiletry bag to my wishlist, put M's travel bag on my Amazon list.
I have one of these for my jeweltry but admittedly I do not have pierced ears so no need to deal with earrings...

I think July is esp hard bc of all the 4th sales and then the end-of-season sales... it's hard for me to resist deals :(
