Off The Internet and Into My Closet

I usually never purchase online unless it's for a gift that I'm sending directly to someone, I much prefer the instant gratification of going to a store and having whatever it is that my heart desires in my hands when I leave.  (Even better if it's on sale.)  But the fact that I couldn't find a sandal anywhere with my exact "sandal specifications" meant a hunt online, which is where I found what I wanted...

 
(From DSW)
The color is not what I thought it was going to be but it turns out I like it even better!  (Actually, I must really like this color because I bought these booties, which I wear with almost everything when I need a non-heel moment.)  Anyway, I wore them to work yesterday and they were very comfy, not a blister or rub to speak of, which is near perfection in footwear for me!

But that's not the only thing I recently purchased off the internet.  I have had a rather too low cut tunic that has been hanging in my closet for a while now and it's something that I really want to wear so I refuse to get rid of it.  Yes, a bra issue.  I wanted something color blocked and once again, the internet came through...

 
(Bandeaus from Tillys)
 The top one was what I originally wanted but the polka dots were on sale for something around $4, so why not?

I'm not convinced to do more online shopping just yet, the anticipation and wait kills me!  Am I the only one who feels this way?

Lovely sandals! There isn't anything as nice as going out to the shop is there but since I buy most of my stuff off ebay I champion online shopping! x

Those sandals are lovely! I defintely need some new ones too! Always a bit nervous about shopping for shoes on the internet, because shoes really do need to fit well or I never wear them. But perhaps I should give it a try! Great finds!

I buy so much stuff online. It's a sickness, really. I think I have less control when shopping online than when I am in shopping in person.

I'm an online shopping lover! I love being able to hunt up exactly what I want and then spend even more time finding the best possible price. I love the bandeau tops you found and any pair of sandals that are comfortable enough to wear all week without a rub spot are keepers in my opinion!
