Fall has always been my favorite season. I love the weather, the holidays, football, but mostly, I love the clothes! And according to my daily emails, boot and sweater season is quickly approaching. With every buzz of my phone, I get more excited to go shopping for boots, leggings, scarves and sweaters.
There are just 2 problems with this:
1) I cannot afford new boots, leggings, scarves and sweaters.
2) I am pregnant. In those key fall clothing months of October and November, I will have the flabby body that goes along with having just given birth. Add to that, I'll have a newborn. If I do leave my house, it will most likely be in sweats and left-over maternity clothes. I will be covered in spit up and breast milk, instead of suede and knits.
Damn it.
I am upset by this. Both my mother and husband have laughed at me and told me to "just give up on fall this year." Sigh. I guess I have to. I will just have to live vicariously through all my emails from DSW and Michael Kors*.
Of course, winter is just around the corner....and if there's anything I love as much as I love fall clothes, it's winter coats!
Bring on the winter coat emails!
*I would like to add that I have been a Michael Kors fan for a LONG time. As in, before he was "Michael Kors from Project Runway" and just "fabulous women's wear designer, Michael Kors." Also before you could find his clothes in TJMaxx and Marshall's. I don't know why I feel it is important to make this distinction, especially now that I can only afford to buy them from TJMaxx and Marshall's, but I do.
