minor accomplishments

I wanted to start a feature on my blog called "minor accomplishments," because I don't have major accomplishments very often, and minor accomplishments still make me feel happy.

One recent minor accomplishment was buying a jacket I had been pining over for months on "secret sale" (yes, that's a real thing), and then alerting the internet to the fact that it was on sale.


I actually just went into the store to try on the jacket, so that when it went on sale on the jcrew website, I would be ready to pounce on it.  The friendly beautiful sales associate let me know that it was on "secret sale" for $75 off -- gag!  Must buy!  You should know that I never, ever try on full priced merchandise at jcrew because it's just way too expensive.  This was the very first time!

Jcrew, your ridiculous marketing works on me.  I am so happy with my jacket.  I feel like Leslie Knope's rival from Eagleton when I wear it.

Haha love the idea of a 'secret sale' - it definitely pays to be friends with shop assistants!

Thanks Ashli - luckily for you I'm not a prolific blogger so you're not far behind. :)
