April 30, 2003 : Mudd Genetic Sport Slides: $26.99
|
Who doesn't need another new pair of shoes? Exactly. I just bought these yesterday at Kohl's. Super cute, super sporty, super cushy. I'm super in lurrrve. I especially like the fact that I could walk around NYC all day in these and not cry. Maybe I can test that out for sure sometime soon. But enough about me, back to the shoes. They come in black, blue and red, but I recommend the black or red. They're on sale now for $26.99 at kohls.com.

April 26, 2003 : 3-Panel Decorative Floor Screen: $69.99

Floor screens are a great way to gain a little privacy, divvy up a room or act as a great enabler for adult peekaboo (you know you still play!). I like this three-panel one myself. And shouldn't you like what I like? Whether you need to create a barrier between you and your psycho roommate, or you just wanna pretend you're a model getting ready for a photo shoot, you can nab a screen for yourself at home-interior.org.

April 17, 2003 : AE Mountain Slide: $9.95

I'm always on the lookout for comfy shoes that you can wear with shorts, skirts and pants and these seem to fit the bill. They're casual, but not too casual --dressier than flops and edgier than Birkenstocks, but nice enough to pair with a skirt and still feel like a hot mama – a hot mama with comfortable feet that is. You can get 'em in red, white, brown or tan for just $9.95 at ae.com.
