Tonight was one of those good nights...the one when the kids get in bed & actually go to sleep - no shenanigans. So, as my husband is watching USC Football, I asked, "what is it you like about watching football?" Without hesitation he responds, "strategy & execution." I was surprised by how quickly he had responded. But it made me wonder, so I asked - "what about the hard hits?" and he told me "that's the icing on top." Needless to say, this conversation made me wonder.
What is it that 'we girls' love, as much as our men love football?
Perhaps, I clearly have a problem though my first thought is SHOPPING! Strategy & Execution - we need both for a great shopping experience. Let's start with strategy: you need a good shopping partner (if you're choosing to have company), you need to know if you're browsing or have a goal in mind, you need to know if you're planning to score a deal....there may be too many to list. You definitely need strong execution, as well. You may even need to execute impecably if you're planning to score a deal. So whether it's "regular" shopping or clothes - you always need a strategy & execution.
This brings us to the hits - the "icing on top" (according to the husband). I will admit, when I put this in the context of shopping I instantly think: super awesome piece, you look ultra hot, extreme deal, perfect place to wear it & lots of compliments. This type of situation is definitely the icing on top! Last year Pete & I were flying into Seattle for a big celebration - I wanted the perfect outfit. I was lucky enough to find it and it was my touchdown! Even to this day, I love the bustier that was the key to the whole look.
Do you have a favorite piece that's YOUR icing on top?
