Instant Therapy


A feeling of complete happiness and relaxation come over me with just a stroll through the Mall.
I lose myself in dreams wandering in and out of my favorite shops. I get excited over new lines, shoes, handbags...always, and then a dress or a shirt will catch my eye.
I can just walk for hours upon hours looking. I can leave empty handed but inspired by all the designs I saw.
I stopped in a Neiman Marcus today. It was the trend event. One thing I can say about Vegas, we do seem to get in one of a kind and limited editions of fashions from top designers. It is so much fun to see the Spring lines hit, we are a resort town so Summer collections are always better here than Fall.
While B slept, I did the dreaming. Chanel flip flops,Prada wedges,Marc Jacobs quilted clutches,and baubbles of brightly colored jewels.
My favorite find of the day was a gorgeous summer dress from Free People. I searched and searched for an image of it and I came up empty handed to show you. Its flowing cotton and an orange tribal print that just catches your eye.
Some people hate the idea of shopping but I can lose myself in shopping just as some can lose themselves in a good book. It takes me out of my real life for just a few hours before the tot is screaming, baths are needed, dinner is made or cleaning begins. Maybe I will never own Chanel,Prada or Valentino anything but for a moment, I try them on and it is mine all mine
