Booking It

I have the best news ever! After a lot of writing, erasing, and a few bouts of writer's block, I am officially a published author. Head on over to alexandrabowmanwrites.com to get a copy of my book: A Little Rant on Retail.

All of the years I spent working in retail couldn't fit in this lil ole book, but suffice it to say that I chose a good portion of the more noteworthy stories to relate to you all. There's drama, despair, dancing, dinero... the whole nine.

This book is for anyone who's worked in the service industry. And for anyone who's dealt with difficult customers. And for anyone who sometimes worries if they have a shopping habit. Which, let's face it, is most of us. Here's to you, everyone. I hope you enjoy my pièce de résistance.

My love of food is only surpassed by my love of fashion...

Hey guys! Lol, I know I've been gone for a bit buuuuuuuuut I have good reason. I have 2 jobs (in retail, nonetheless) and have been bouncing back and forth between them for the past few weeks. When I'm not working, I'm usually shopping. I know I shouldn't be, but Urban Outfitters had an IRRESISTABLE sale: an extra 50% off all women's stuff that was on sale!!!! I got a couple dresses. And then I bought a pair of slouchy, black suede boots. And then I bought a pair of beige leather cowgirl boots. LOL, I dunno why I'm a bit shoe-crazy lately, but boots are a must for me... I only had 2 pairs before this fall: a pair of black Uggs with cream-colored fur and a side buckle detail, and a pair of knee-high, lace-up Timberlands that are a chocolate color.

SOOOOOOoo now I need booties. NEED them. I found the perfect pair of black oxford booties online and they're on sale at Nordstrom's for only $66!!! Only problem is, I'm running low on cash since I've been shopping like mad @ Urban, Abercrombie, and Vicky's Secret. And I had to pay bills. It doesn't help that I bought a leather Coach Spotlight bag a few weeks ago, lol... Fashion, why do you torment me so?
