It got me....

How was your weekend? I was busy out helping friends all weekend at their house, but it was a pleasant time, lots of good laughs, even while helping them get some weeding done, enjoyed some of the short lived warmth the sun brought in.

I think I have been going through blogger/Esty shops too much lately, I was out at my favorite consignment shop this weekend, and they have the $1, $2, $3 rack I almost always start at. This rack is typically some questionable items, a few wondrous finds, and normally many pairs of pants that are not sized correctly (sooo many I wish would fit, we are talking 80-100 pair of jeans, with the tags still on, labeled like a 8, fit probably a 2). Every so often I come across a steal of a find.

Orginally I was not stoked on this jacket, but I had to buy it, which is weird since normally I get something on and its a yes or no, pretty quick process. This jacket was different, it is something I could totally see someone else wearing, but that I had to buy, I couldn't just let anyone take it.

Have you had this ever happen?

I figured it could be a perfect "because I love you and you will love this piece like it deserves to be" gift. Or maybe it would be in my closet for awhile, and I will grow to love it and keep it, haha. always a good option.

Anyhow, I put it on this morning to take pictures for you guys, really that was it, just so I could show you it. It already had a place in the back of the closet picked out, where it wouldn't get it the way, but would stay nicely kept. ( I also realize now, that these pants are also from that same 1,2,3 dollar rack, such a great find : ) )

I think its wearing on me, I left the house in it.. its here at work with me.

My dad would die if he knew. It is what he is getting me while he is over seas for Christmas. Although I told him black, and a different style, I totally told him to stay away from the style this one is in... and here I am, enjoying a $3 leather jacket that was everything I didn't want, such a typical Heather move.

Oh, and I bought my very first item off Etsy this morning! I will share when it comes in for sure, I am thinking holiday partywear, it is a very "Heather" item though, so I don't think you will be shocked.

Anyhow go check out Christina's blog SecondSkin and her Etsy shop, that's where I got the item, and she is rocking the listings lately, throwing lots of goodies (clothes, purses, shoes, accessories, etc)  up there on a regular bases, and her blog just pretty much makes my day  : )

Hope you kids have a great week, I am feeling good vibes this Monday, so hopefully you get some too!
