Shopping in the starting blocks

Yesterday was one of these high-speed great days. I had a day off work and my friend Sarah proposed we'd go shopping together since she had to grab a couple things before she left for her weekend in the vineyards. No need to say more than "shopping" for me to agree, especially since I just had put my paycheck in the bank. So off we go, after a few stops and a semi-lost trip in the middle of nowhere we arrived at the Palm Desert...


Shopping Mall...


The first thing to do was to fill these empty stomachs of ours so we made a quick stop at Charley's Grilled Subs to devour one of these:


Then serious things began and although we didn't have much time in front of us we managed to score a few cute things and for Sarah to spend her Forever 21 gift card...I talked her into buying these nice purple shorts that can be dressed up or down and she found herself a leopard pencil skirt that will turn heads on that hot body of hers (not that she needs to since she has a fiance).
There's nothing better than to go shopping in the middle of a weekday cause then you pretty much feel like the shops are there for your eyes only.
Here is what I fell for this time...


Left to right:
-Black and grey striped tube top with bottom lace trim - Charlotte Russe
-Purple crystal alike bracelet - Forever 21
-Lace tights - Rampage for Charlotte Russe
-Black and white pinstriped tube top with satin belt - Charlotte Russe

So after that we decided we haven't had enough and it was just us getting started so around a Starbucks green tea frappuccino for me and chai tea frappuccino for her we planned for another way longer round of shopping next week with this time NO distractions to stop us!...we're good citizens, we try to fight recession and keep the economy going,right!haha
