I finally checked another item off my bucket list!
Mama got herself a pair of Jimmy Choo’s. Kind of?
The only problem, the particular “pair” I was dreaming of, they looked something like this:
So beautiful!! But what I ended up getting?
These:
. NOOOOOO! Turns out life after 40 also means I need glasses. Well for driving anyway.
I’m trying so hard to convince myself that the need for glasses has just created a justifiable excuse to spend money on pretty things for my face. Simply more accessories! After all, retail therapy, even if it is shopping for glasses, is always a good thing right? I will not cry, break down, or spiral into a small depression with the knowledge that what it really means is …. I. Am. Old.
Sigh. Maybe I can pull off the hot librarian look?

LOL….you are so funny! my eyes went the few months prior to my 40th! I’m now wearing bi-focal contact lenses!!! You are the cutest (hottest) librarian I know. 🙂
Lolo works for an eye Dr. now and just purchased her own set of D & C glasses! It’s hell to have good taste!

If glasses make you old then I’ve been old since the second grade!

Just think of the glasses as a way to keep you legs happy! They sure look cute. Just wait until you need reading glasses!

Sara @ Domestically Challenged says
Ah crap.
Should I send you a pic of the cute JC’s my sister got for her wedding? And then the pair she ACTUALLY wore for her wedding? Nice job getting $800 shoes out of her spouse!

Don’t be so hard on yourself, I’ve been wearing glasses and contacts since my teens. It’s not that bad. It’s all an idea. Let me tell you that, first, these glasses are awesome, you will rock! and, second, you will be wearing glasses because your eyes are so beautiful you have to put them on a window display!!!!!
Kyla @ Mommys Weird says
Those glasses will go with anything! 🙂
Natalie says
lol, how I got some Michael Kors was through a discount shoe store!
I was in Hawaii and just stood about 10 meters from the Jimmy Choo store – I couldn’t even walk in!
I tried some on at Harrods in the UK – I’m sure they were rolling their eyes!
Kristina P. says
Ha! Glasses are totally hot right now, though. You will rock them!
Jo says
You can totally pull off the hot librarian look! Some people even wear glasses when they don’t need to just to give it a try!
