Less Is Fabulous.

Know what this is?

It’s an Ann Taylor LOFT 25% off savings card about to meet the life-ending jaws of my trusty Fellowes cross-cut shredder.

It expires in five days.

I received it after deliberately choosing to NOT end my relationship with LOFT’s direct marketing department.

I wanted to see if I could get it and resist the urge to make a “just browsing” pilgrimage to LOFT at Fashion Show on the Strip.

I resisted. More significantly, there was no urge.

I guess when a girl realizes she can give away 60 percent of her (mostly LOFT) wardrobe and still be happy (okay, happier), that’s when urges go away. That’s also when it’s time for her to call her “good friends” at LOFT and get off the mailing list.

Now that, my loyal readers, is progress.

Even if I do say so myself.
