Here's the thing about being sick: there's still technology. It whispers to you from every corner: turn on the tv, you want a smoothie (blender in the kitchen), maybe someone sent you a text message, and the worst: hey why don't you just shop online for, oh, 3 hours. As a result of doing just that I have found myself in a bit of a pinch--how to make room and have the budget for all of the following?
And yes, I realize I have been bit by the cheetah/leopard bug. I think it's what landed me in the horizontal in the first place. Conspiracy theory!
1. Isabel Marant - Sleeveless Leopard Blouse (less expensive version at Forever 21) Thanks for the heads up!
2. Current/Elliott - Leopard Skinny Stiletto Jeans (also here in case your size is gone)
3. Crochet Dress - This picture does not do it justice and you can get 30% off here (also in black)
4. 3.1 Phillip Lim - Quilted Leather Shorts (less expensive + on sale version here!)
5. Sam Edelman - Alvin Smoking Loafer (also $10 cheaper here)
6. Rebecca Minkoff - Clutch (also here in case it sells out because I think it could -- beautiful)
7. Dolce Vita Jamison Booties (and you can get 30% off those too, which I mayor may not have done)

Rest up, make a couple of online orders, and... that's all I've got. I took shopping online as the first sign that I was on my way to recovery a couple of weeks ago. Yeah, the doctor didn't SAY that meant I was getting better but, um, that's how I took it.
awww...feel better friend. Even though you were down you definitely weren't out! Those picks are FAB. I have always had the leopard print bug. It won't go away ;)
Sick shopping! Oh no! It makes all purchases completely seemingly justified.
I hope you feel better soon.
i need #1, #4, #5, and #7. I need some cute low boots this season... NEED. key word. so i dont care how poor i am, i must make it happen.
Feel better lady! I am also going through a bit of an animal print fever right now.
I was just thinking I needed a leopard blouse... Wait, did I already buy one of those? And leopard shoes and a new clutch...
Ahhh online shopping, we don't stand a chance!
Turn off the computer and get some rest!
So sorry you are sick friend. Kind of loving the flats. Kind of wanting them.
I hope you feel better soon - being sick sucks! And you just know I drooling over all that stuff...hello leopard!

Rest up & feel better darlin', but in the meantime go buy 5, 6 & 7... oh wait, it seems you've already taken care of number 7..! ;) They are fantastic loafers, good purchase!! And that clutch is a must have... lovvvving it!
I love the clutch...I saw a couple of hers in Saks and I decided I must have one! And I love lace for fall too.
I have to confess...I already own #2...as soon as I saw them, I HAD to have them. I have a animal print obsession so these were a necessity. I can tell you they are as great in real life as in the pictures. Can't wait until it is cool enough here to wear them. Hope you feel better soon!
Wow those leather shorts are speaking to me and it is so out of character for me!

I want #2 and #5.
Yesterday was extremely boring at work and I was bad. I ordered a wallet, a dress and oxfords from Forever21 and then a skirt, a belt and a python printed top from ASOS.
Shame on me.
Feel better!
I'll take all of that please! :D
Ick on being sick though :(

I have those loafers in black but i really think I want these too!
Thanks for the comment on my blog Carrie ! Makes me feel a tiny bit better about walking away from the beautiful J Brands... I also love the Sam Edelman - Alvin Smoking Loafer ! I am on the hunt for the perfect pair of Cheetah flats ! xo

Ooh I'd like a neutral clutch please!

Feel better darlin!!! Those cheetah shoes are faboosh!
Oh that is exactly what happens to me when I'm sick! It's not a good thing. Because I don't have the willpower to say no. I'm in a weakened state and all I want is instant gratification. Anything to make me feel better. Looove all of these picks. Especially the Isabel Marant blouse. Gorgeous!
Feel better soon, sweetie! xoxo
I like me a pair of leather shorts too.
I know...when I'm sick I always end up perusing around more than usual. Ha.

Oh dear, this is exactly what I do when I am sick! But you did find some great shoes...I hope you feel better soon :)
Aaaaahhh. These are all AMAZING! Hope you feel better soon, Carrie!
I love #3... lace is soooo in right now!
I hate being sick when it's nice outside. I love your picks - I'm trying to resist those Sam Edelmans. I ended up finding the perfect boot from Enzo Angiolini which were more than $100 less than the FP ones!

I hope you feel better soon! Being sick during the summer time, with all of its humidity and mugginess never feels good :(
Oh honey, why vacuuming? Vacuuming makes me sick on the best day =) I hope you feel better very soon. Summertime sickness is just unfair.
And I'm not usually an animal print person, but I've seen leopard flats a few times now and I'm starting to really crave a pair!
ugh sorry you feel like crap, that is never fun at all. And you're right the internet does ease the pain a bit, I love your selections, is it bad that I kinda want to wear them all together.... haha.
You may be delirious, but girl, you can still shop online better than most mortals. That clutch is like buttery bag heaven.
Here's hoping a shot of tequila kills whatever's in your system.
GET THE CROCHET DRESS!!! It is so beautiful and would look fantastic on you! Plus it's not quite bank-breaking. Isn't your birthday very very soon? Perfect excuse! (I bought an Anthropologie dress for $168 . . . still debating on whether I deserve to keep it or not!)
Feel better Carrie! I hate that you're sick. I'd suggest a hot toddy, but I think you said you have the flu, in which case it might make you BARF. Ugh. Sending health vibes to SoCal!
I was passing through different blogs and thought id just say hello. Richard from the Amish community of Lebanon,Pa.
I love the leopard skinny jeans. I saw them a few weeks ago and wished they shipped to NZ so I could buy a pair. I hope you feel better soon!

these are SUCH fun picks Carrie! I am totally in love with dress #3. I'm really into lace lately! xo
FYI: just spotted those cheetah skinny jeans on Katie Holmes!
#4, #6 and #7 - yes please! I hope you feel better soon. Don't vacuum! And get some rest!
So sorry to hear you're sick! That really ils the worst. I do love these picks of yours! Feel better, friend :)
I need number 5 & 6!! Need them!!
Hope you feel better soon.
I love that scalloped lacy dress. So cute! The leopard bug has bitten me hard core. When is it too much?
Hope today is a little better then yesterday! And yes, we cannot escape the technology....I swear the shopping websites talk to me! Love your picks...especially the leather shorts! xo
You poor thing! I was sick last month and wanted to shoot myself. Great shopping here, there's really no escaping the animal print bug! Love the RM bag, I've got this in same color with a gold chain and it's like butta. xo -Taj
Raawr!! ;) Hope all is great with you, sweet cheeks!
Carrie, I'm so sorry that you're sick! Please take care of yourself (maybe by purchasing that Rebecca Minkoff clutch... Just an idea) and feel better soon!

Being sick in the summer is the worst isn't it. Take care, shopping online is like medicine..you really can't overdo it ;)
Oh yes, the dangers of technology when you have the time to browse your favorite shops online for hours. I wish technology could somehow go on hold when I am under the weather. I always think of the emails that are stacking up and the work that I could be doing, but just can't bring myself to do.
LOVE those current/elliott jeans. I saw them on Cheetah is The New Black recently and absolutely fell in love.
The crochet dress is lovely lovely lovely
ive been bit by the python and leopard bug! enter my giveaway!
Loving the Rebecca Minkoff clutch! Very versatile.
Sorry you're sick, Carrie! Hope you're still able to have an enjoyable weekend....

being sick in the summer sucks. Even worse when your friends all go to the beach and your stuck at home, I feel your pain! luckily online shopping/browsing seems to help alot.
I like all of the things you chose, can't wait to see what you end up getting!
