Ah, ebay and old navy, two of my loves
I ended up getting a "libby" and not a cargo sling, but I too am finding the same problem, the strap is just a little short, I think on our next time, the hipster will be coming along again, I just wish it were a tad bigger, you know?
Loving the picture board though, you're getting so close so quick!
I wish the hipster was a bit bigger and then I would take that or if the Cargo Sling had the strap length of the hipster it would be perfect. I slung the Cargo Sling across my body today and it just wasn't as comfortable as I hoped. Bah!
Such great buys!!
Those flips are really cute -may have to get me some!
I am also going to get some pins off of Ebay for me and and the family.
I think that was the exact VB bag I was looking at yesterday! I think it is fate-I must have it now LOL.
Cute swim suit
I thought the pin lots were a pretty good deal. One of them worked out to $1.89 per pin. Granted you don't know what you are going to get but they are all trade-able. Did you get your bag yet?
Love, love, the purchases! Now you have me doubting my decsion to purchase the hipsters.......
but I still have my baggalini messanger sling waiting in the owners locker if they are too small. (convincing myself) As long as I'm not carrying an umbrella it should be fine. Anyway the Melon bag is beautiful and the pins are very cute on it. That's sooo much better than wearing a loaded lanyard. I will be putting some of my pins to trade on my bag as well. Great ideas Leslie!
I really like the pins on the bag, I hated wearing my lanyard last trip, it made me feel like a pack mule and I hate that feeling.
I'm so happy that you got your ADR's!
Very cute purchases too. I love the bathing suit. I've been toying with the idea of buying a new one this season. Forget about the fact that the last thing I need is a new bathing suit. I have a bit of a bathing suit addiction. I end up buying at least one every year whether or not I need it. (Usually I don't). I think I have at least three in every size between 12 to 18. Yep, it's a problem.
Wow. I hate buying bathing suits. Next time I buy one I am so going to have you do the internet scouring for me.
Thank GOODNESS someone else understands my dilemma.
My mother keeps asking me all these things and I'm like "I don't care." She was like "whaaat?!"
I wanted a Disney wedding but none of my family would have flown down because they can't really afford it. Guess I'll have to do a vow renewal!
I totally understand what you are going through. Throw in my crazy MIL and I was fit to be tied for a year.
Marc offered a vow renewal in Disney in 10 years and I laughed at him. NO WAY. I am never planning another wedding/vow renewal for myself in a 1,000 years. He then said it could just be the two of us and I contemplated it for a moment and then I came to my senses. NO THANKS.
I did tell him that if we have a daughter she is going to be so Disney brainwashed that he better start saving for her Disney Wedding Extravaganza now.
Thanks Kristine!! I'll be sure to PM you with any issues I have
OMG we totally have to have a Spinners meet!! That would be so awesome! Who else can we get?
LL the capri crocs ROCK! I totally need to get myself some.
I recently bought TWO pairs of mammoth crocs because they were buy 1 get 1 1/2 off on the web so I did!
And my wedding shoes, I totally bought a pair of purple Mary Janes! I'm so excited to wear them. Did you ever have any rubbing issues with the strap on top? Thats the only thing I'm worried about.
What the heck was Marc thinking covering the countdown?! Men!
I love that you are wearing purple Mary Janes! How cute. I wore heels for the ceremony since I had a tea length dress but afterwards I had white flipflops that I bejeweled.
I don't know what he was thinking but clearly he was not thinking at all. Pffft.
I don't have any rubbing issues, I just pulled the strap a bit when I first get them and then they are fine.
Hey! So many of your readers love the stuff you bought and I just thought I would throw this out there, I found this website today, hope it's okay to post and the have Old Navy coupons, worth checking it out!!

That is so awesome! I am going to have to check it out, I can never find old navy coupons.
Great purchases! I have mary jane crocs and love them!! Mine are black too - they are a couple years old now though... those flip flops looks great - I was always afraid of crocs flip flops because the little piece that goes between your toes looked too hard - but those look nice & soft - is that fabric??
I just bought a new bathing suit for our trip - it's hard to buy a bathing suit online... but in some ways it's easier because you don't have to try a bunch on. I usually stick with Lands End because I know what size to order. Plus I can return things for free at Sears if they don't work out. (And the free shipping they have been offering recently doesn't hurt.
)
The ones I got do have a fabric strap. I like them a lot. They were different to wear so you have to get used to them.
I have a pair of the Mary Janes, and while I've never had a problem with the top of strap I occasionally have problems with where the strap meets the shoe. I have very high insteps so I'd guess that if your foot is more normal it may not bother you. I have the same problem with my Alice crocs sometimes, and with my Caymans when I where them with the strap on my heel. I'm fine until my feet get too hot and then it starts to get a bit irritated. (Right where the circle is).
Lands End is my swim suit place of choice. I love the two piece ones so I can get a perfect fit, and still be completely covered. I love the shorts bottoms, so I can play with my nieces and still feel appropriate at family parties in the summer. Always check out the overstocks area for some great deals on prior season suits.
If there is a Sears nearby you can get free shipping by placing the order in the store and having it shipped to your home. This is one of the best tips I ever picked up on the Budget board. I get my order all set at home - enter my credit card info and have my order all set to finalize. Then I go and log into my account and place the order from the Sears store. That way I don't have to enter my personal information on the store computer, and I get to take advantage of the free shipping.
That is a very good tip about Sears!
Thank you! Thats where I thought I might have some irritation. It seems to cling to my foot more than my Disney crocs. I might have to buy some tiny nylon socks. I appreciate your feedback!
Sorry for the OT LL!
No worries!! I have worn nylon socks with my mary janes and they work just fine as well.
That is so funny that your cat used your Crocs at chew toys!
I don't think I've ever seen that before. Maybe your cat thinks she's a dog?
We did the same on our "Planned-UnPlanned" days. We had loose ideas, but everything was completely flexiable.
My birthday is in 3 months. I think I can convince Joe to get me a VB....I always tell him "bags, shoes and flowers"!
I am so going to take pictures of the Mickey Crocs she destroyed. I was going to sell them on ebay because they didn't quite fit me and she DESTROYED THEM. GRRRR. I think the material of the Crocs feels good on her teeth. I literally have to hide my shoes so she won't get them. My green and purples ones have little bite marks but luckily I caught them before she did too much damage. Ruby is clearly not right in the head, the little 5lb cat doesn't think twice about attacking my 25lb Sully. Good grief is it funny to see Sully run away from her.
Yes, Joe should get you a VB for your Birthday. That would be a great present.
Crocs too! I have the Adara style right now, but I think I might get some Capris and Cleos for this trip.
Like tomorrow.
