Okay, so I'm going to New York tomorrow (yay!) but I suddenly hate averything in my undersized, worthless closet (not yay). The problem with traveling somewhere fabulous is that you kind of want to get all new clothes before you leave so that you look the part, and of course you also want to do some serious credit damage while you're there as well.

So, the dilemma that presents itself is this: is it more important to shop before a big trip, or during a big trip? (this is assuming that, like me, you have woefully inadequate finances, and that you are probably going to have to skip a few meals in order to shop). So no, unfortunately I can't shop now and in New York. I am faced with a choice. And that's so boring. So, lets pretend for a moment (if you'll indulge me) that I've just married a semi-famous D-list actor from the daytime soaps who makes just enough to sort of indulge me and is also secretly gay but won't admit it becuase it would be bad for his career (not unlike a certiain actor of today. I won't name him but let's just say his name rhymes with Lom Schmooze) and thus loves to shop and loves to shop with me. And we have a cool, best friend strictly-platonic thing going on where I'm a kept woman and he just jets to LA during the week for the filming of his show, leaving me with an empty house and a credit card. Let's just pretend.

In such a situation, here's what I would be buying for my trip. First, a few cute basics:

Brian Reyes shorts (please try to ignore the 5-inch gap between this model's upper thighs. It disturbs me, too)

Then, a sturdy pair of wooden-heeled sandals (practical for walking? No. But remember we're in fantasy land where I can actually afford all this stuff):


Johnny Montini Sandals

And finally, a couple of fun add-ons. Just because I'm now semi-rich and married to a D-list closeted gay daytime soap actor:

Voila! I'm looking fabulous and ready to do some (more) shopping. Bring it on!
