You really don't want my money, do you?

This weekend my main mission was clothes shopping. I could do with just about everything, and I figured it was a good time since I'm getting a tax refund. I went in willing to spend some bucks. And then I encountered The Ugly.

I think part of the issue is that I need a lot of Business Casual. Not suits and dresses, but not cotton tops. But many stores' ideas of Business Casual involves catering to the over-60 crowd. In 1985. I only tried on clothes in 2 stores, and only wound up getting 2 tops for work and a purse.

And then there were the shoes. I prefer ankle-length dress boots in the winter. But for some reason (known only to feeble fashion minds) they decided that all dress boots will have giant spiked heels. Not only does this look mildly ridiculous, I actually have to walk around at my job instead of sit somewhere and look pretty all day.

Fashion is on my List at the moment.
