1 Stop at Macy’s: 5 New Outfits

What is blue, has feet pockets, and is inspired by monkeys? . . . Give up? It is the five-pack of baby onesies I purchased at Macy’s last week for my friends Angela and Kris.  They are expecting their son, Winsor in March. I’m so excited for them to be parents and was equally excited to get the chance to buy clothes that Angela opened at her baby shower this past weekend.  Winsor is going to be one styling cutie that is for sure!

Is this still within my rules?  Of course!  I can’t buy anything for myself.  Other people are fair game even if what I buy for them can fit me, which baby onesies certainly cannot.  But, let me tell you, if baby onesies came in my size, I would proudly pull them over, snap them up, and relax on my couch with a bowl of freshly made cookie dough and a mug of Baileys and hot chocolate.

Ok, I apologize for painting that picture in your head.  I don’t even want to picture that—weird. It is like heading back to the 80’s when skintight leotards were a bigger hit than puffy bangs.  But, aren’t the 80’s coming back too?  I’m starting to see a lot of neon green, yellow, orange, and pink in the stores. I should have saved some of those past picks and busted them out in 2013.  However, the seven-year-old Jodie wasn’t thinking about money and being “hip” in first grade.  As children, most of our clothes would come in big, black garbage bags that came from our cousins that had out grown them.  Those were “new” to us. It wasn’t until middle school when “cool” meant having brand names.  I still remember my first item from Calvin Klein. . . . It was all downtown shopping from there.
