I
am very giddy with excitement to book my downtown Cleveland Hampton Inn room
for Fashion Week Cleveland. I’ll be back
in my hometown from May 9th through May 13th. I think
that I have my fashion week wardrobe assembled because today I’ve gone shopping
at CUSP Georgetown, Nordstrom Tysons and downtown H and M. First, I print the 20% off CUSP coupon, hail
the circulator and enter CUSP. Immediately I love the 7 for All Mankind gold
snakeskin print jeans (and they are size 31!) and the red Velvet strapless
maxi. I am extremely happy that even the
sale is 20% off. I return home, check
the WMATA schedule, then walk to McPherson Square metro. I board the orange line for Dunn Loring to
transfer to the 2C…only to see the both the 2C and 401 come 3 minutes early
forcing to pay $10 for a cab ride (Of course, I’ve filed a complaint because even
with the long light I would’ve made it.).
Since I already have the Alice+Olivia
floral jeans and I’ve bought a new pair of jeans, I’ve written the Ted Baker
London ones off of my list focusing only on the floral dress. I go to the dressing room where it fits so I
buy it. Next I walk into Via C where I
meet the saleswoman who’s held the Alice + Olivia leopard print trench
coat. Wearing black t-shirt and gold
Stuart Weitzman Itsybitsy sandals, the trench coat perfectly complements my
look; but, at $478 it probably costs as much as my Cleveland room (it is $450
for a 4-night stay.). I return it to the rack and proceed to the Coastal Flats
for lunch.

The shrimp and crab appetizer and
shrimp roll sandwich and fries are yummy! The portion sizes are very big making
me carry the sandwich home. Also I make the waiter pack my food because that’s
what I pay him. I don’t wrap my own food
because I am the patron.

Next I travel to H and M to buy the rainforest maxi
and shirt dresses. Since the Tysons
Corner location is sold out of the sateen floral capris, I’ve traveled to the
downtown DC store to get them. Finally,
I buy the Express purple maxi dress. All
of these floral dresses and this being spring make me think that I have already
have my fashion week Cleveland wardrobe.
