What's a girl to do??

When I was Christmas shopping back in the beginning of December, I went into Eddie Bauer looking for a sweater vest for Jeff. Of course, I wandered over to the women's section, too, and found these pants that I absolutely loved. However, they were $60 and I didn't want to spend that much on a pair of pants for ME when I was supposed to be shopping for Jeff. So I promised myself that I would come back in January when they were on sale.

Last week I did just that. But I found myself in a dilemna...what color did I want? Did I want the kahki color that would go with everything? Or did I want the slimming chocolate brown? Or what about the charcoal gray - could be dressed up or down. What's a girl to do? I did what every girl would have done in my situation - I got all 3 pairs! But I was being a smart shopper at the same time...they were on sale for 39.99 with an extra 30% off...making each pair 28.00. So I basically got all 2 for the price of 1 back in December. Don't you love a good deal?? But here's the best part - Eddie Bauer has a genius marketing team because their pants run on the big side. So, I got all 3 pairs in a size smaller than I usually am...it made for a great day!
