City after the rain

Amazingly, since last Friday, we got three thunderstorms, almost in a row in two of which we managed to get caught. Yesterday, it looked like we had all the chances to spend the day indoors - it was really coming down out there - but with the brave "Ah, what the hell!" we ventured outside, equipped with a huge umbrella and a waterproof case for the camera (once again, vanity prevailed). And it was amazing! Walking in the rain turns out to be so much fun, and when the rain is over, the city looks so refreshed and clean!

Those cobblestones are not as steady as they look.

Endless temptations

It's amazing: every time I decide to go frugal (happens about a few times a month) there inevitably going to be yet another sale with some of my favourite designers and I will yield in again - inevitably so. Even if I do my best and avoid walking past Saks, Bergdorf, or down Madison Avenue in general one or two of those places (or more) will inevitably reach me through e-mail (which I cannot not check) still offering coupons, discounts and other stuff a gal just can't resist.
Today, it was theoutnet's turn to try to trick me into swaying away from the path of frugality. And they sell Brian Atwood shoes for whom I have very tender feelings.

I can proudly say that so far, all I have been doing is windowshopping. But the sale is for a whole week...
