'Fortune's Fool'



On a whim I popped into JCrew a few weeks ago to browse all the lovelies they had and to perhaps JUST try something on.  That is until I walked by the Sherpa hoodies looking so pretty and cozy on the hanger, and what was sitting next to them but the beloved little orange and white card declaring it to be on sale!  So of course, I scooped it up (after all, it was on my wish list) and decided to buy it - it'll come in handy as a great layering piece under my anorak and leathers now that the weather is getting nippier.  I happily waited in line and when I got to the register, the salesman told me that it wasn't supposed to be on sale.  Unperturbed, I simply stood there and blinked at him knowing that he had to honor the sale.  He finally called up who he needed to call up and declared that yes, he had to honor the sale sign to which I hardily grinned and produced my extra 25% off JCrew promotion card, leaving the salesdude to proclaim that I was getting it for a steal!  Ahhh, I love a great discount : )

Anthro is charging $298 for this absolutely adorable necklace.  Absolutely not!  So what's a girl to do?  I'm going to make her!  When I study her, I see a feat not at all insurmountable.  I will scour the city for all her parts and construct her from scratch, probably only spending $30.  So ladies, if at any time you come across any of her parts and would like to give me a heads up, I'd appreciate it.  Stay tuned for the finish products!
