Day Eight- Magic Man

Mistake #1: Walking in Bergdorf Goodman. Mistake #2: Walking past the bag sale.

It was then that I saw him. A 6’5 Adonis, with thick scruffed-up blonde hair and piercing blue eyes. I think I may have said “Dayum” a little too loud because the woman in front of me turned around. I mean this guy wasn’t pretty boy hot; he was Paul Newman/Robert Redford in their prime hot. He definitely had a manly quality about him although he was wearing that silky grey suit uniform for Bergdorfs. I know what ya’ll are thinking…gay, so get over it girl.

He came right over to me (probably because he smelled an easy victim) and asked if I needed help. His voice was like a George Clooney-esque angel. I really think I stared at him in awe for a good minute before I said, “No, thanks.” This guy was so hot that I even contemplated asking him out…because I knew I didn’t have a chance in hell. He was either: a) gay or b) so out of my league, it would simply amuse him that I asked him out.

As I was perusing the Tods bag on sale, he came over and noticed my bag. “Oh, that was from our line a few years back.” Ok, gay. But maybe not? Maybe an out of work actor who knows his Tods? Either way, he had me under his spell. I broke down and bought the darn bag. However in my defense, it was on sale AND I had a gift card from Christmas, so it didn’t cost me anything. This brings me to tip #88 on “How to save money while unemployed.”

Ladies! Do not, I repeat, do not venture into the handbag section of Bergdorfs unless you are prepared to buy something. Let me rephrase…you can go to the back section with the Gucci and the YSL, but I warn you, do NOT go near that Tods section. For you will see him, and a spell WILL be cast and then Poof!...you are out $800 bones. You have been warned.

PS- If anyone does know about this God of whom I speak…what’s his deal? Gay? Dating a supermodel? Tell him I love him!!
