I think it's already pretty well established now that I'm a bit of a nut, so I'm just going to go ahead and share this with you because I need advice.
Last night, I had a really in-depth dream about shopping at Old Navy. Well, the name of the shop was Old Navy but the clothes inside were all really, really awesome. I mean, I love Old Navy but my dream version of the store puts the multi-colored cardigans and flip flops to shame.
I took a bunch of things into the dressing room with me, including a really gorgeous white dress that I can't actually picture anymore, and a white hat that very much resembled the one Audrey wore in How to Steal a Million. The hat totally made my dream complete. I think I woke up smiling, because I had met this hat in my dream and completely fallen in love.
Then, of course, I realized it was just a dream. The hat was not in my closet, and I didn't even bother to check the Old Navy website.
But -- (I have no life) -- I spent all day thinking about this hat.
So, tonight whilst enjoying one of my favorite methods of procrastination - window shopping on etsy - I found it. Seriously. I found the hat. It's a vintage hat from the 1960's, and it is THE HAT.
Trouble is, I was only window shopping (I'm on a spending freeze. GAH.) and the hat is fifty dollars. BUT IT IS THE HAT OF MY DREAMS.
So, do I buy it? Or do I keep dreaming about it... my dreams slowly turning into nightmares; my frugality of today haunting me tomorrow and for years and years to come....

Update: I bought the hat because nobody was awake to talk me out of it ;-D
YAYA! That's sounds so cool!
Also, slightly creepy, because I just woke up from watching like ten straight Twilight Zone's (don't ask).
But, seriously! I am peanut butter and jealous! I want to see it! :-DDD
I was going to say OF COURSE YOU MUST BUY IT!
And now I can't wait to see! If this is the Audrey hat (or very close to it) how could you not snap it up?
Chalk me up as peanut butter and jealous, too!
I want to see this hat. Is it the Audrey hat or is that just to throw us of or does it look like that?
I never have cool dreams about shopping. I always have stupid strange dreams about relationships. :-(
I would have bought it too!
It is a pretty cool hat. It reminds me of something that Audrey Hepburn or Mary Tyler Moore might wear.
lol I'm glad everyone is in favor of buying it :-)
Raquelle- it's A LOT like that hat, only with a little bow in the front and no chin strap. I hardly ever have dreams about hats either, that's what makes this one so special :D lol!
