who am I kidding?

Every year I like to buy myself a Christmas present. I also like to buy myself birthday presents. (Oh, who am I kidding — I don’t require an occasion to buy myself things….)

So this year I decided I needed a bb simon belt. Belts are only second to footwear in my fashion hierarchy.

Now, might a belt adorned with “Swarovski Crystals” be a bit tacky? Perhaps. But that has not stopped me yet. This is the first one that caught my eye in the shop but it was too small. Indeed I almost cried (with both pain and sadness) as a tried it on.

But in retrospect skulls are going out of fashion very swiftly. Case in point — I saw some skull pajamas at Zellers. This does not bode well for much of my winter wardrobe but it did calm me down somewhat as I accepted that I’m just not a ‘medium’.

Moving on, bb simon has some pretty spectacular belts! I like all the examples below. But I only bought one of them…

Alas, no. I didn’t see this one in the shop…

I have one like this already but not with —
you know — “Swarovski Crystals” …

Yes! This is the one. The belt I purchased (for the curious) is bright blue with clear and blue Swarovski crystals. But the buckle is the same and it looks even better in real life.

Really! It does!
