I am not much of a shopper, much to my mother’s chagrin. The woman can spend days at the mall, while I start to feel itchy after just a few hours. It’s not that I’m not materialistic, I totally am, it’s just that the thought of adding more stuff to my life makes it hard to breathe. But I like the idea of things. So I’m an avid window shopper. I browse catalogs I’ll never buy from and hold my breathe when I pass the window at J.Crew. So while I’m stuck at school all day Wednesdays, I thought we could have some fun via blog. Let’s window shop!
Here’s what I’m coveting this week –
1. The Pac Man cookie cutters from Fred Flare.
If you don’t want this then you don’t love the 80’s and I probably hate you (probably because that means you’re younger than I). I’m never all that excited about cookie cutters because usually the fun shapes have to be well-frosted for you to see what they heck they are. These seem like a simple slap of frosting would make them more recognizable. Though if I buy these I’ll need to get some fruit shaped cutters to complete the theme.
2. Marshmallow foaming hand soap from Bath and Body Works.
The antibacterial hand soap from BBW is pretty much the only kind of hand soap we use; for the quality the price is the best I’ve found. I love holiday themed items and marshmallow is a year-round favorite so this sounds like the perfect October splurge as soon as I make it to the mall.
3. The Marshmallow Fireside candle from Bath and Body Works.
Once I’ve got the hand soap I might as well go all the way! I can’t even imagine how good this would make my apartment smell.
4. Pumpkin Pretzels from Stonewall Kitchen.
The goodness that is yogurt pretzels with the goodness that is pumpkin. If two of my favorite foods had a love child it would look something like this.
5. The Air Bite Cami Tank from Volcom.
I’ve never been a surfer (though I did work in a surf shop all through high school) but Volcom is one of my favorite clothing brands. I love the ruffle detailing on the front and how the shirt comes together in the back. Black would be cute but purple is cuter.

Love that shirt, too!!
And I’m so glad I’m not the only one who doesn’t like shopping. You said it perfectly…”the idea of adding more stuff to my life makes it hard to breathe” – unfortunately, this is why I do not like Christmas.
I saw the marshmallow stuff before you and I said to myself, “I’ve got to get them for Em.” So buy it – on me! (You’re not my daughter if you don ‘t make it to the mall occasionally)
