{Adele... Breaking hearts all over SLC}

So... Remember how in my last post - I was SO excited that we were going to see Adele Sunday night?? Oh and then remember how I was SO excited all week, and whenever anyone asked if we were doing anything fun this holiday weekend I would say:

"Seeing Adele downtown at the Depot!!!"

Well.... on Sunday afternoon, I went and checked into our hotel {We decided we would stay at a hotel, right by the Depot, so we wouldn't have to drive home after the concert}. Michael met me downtown, right after work. We went to an absolutely fantastic dinner... and the excitement was building up {I could hardly stand it!!} So, at about 30 minutes before the doors were supposed to open {an hour before the show} we headed to the venue... as we got closer - we saw the most devastating sign I've ever seen:

"ADELE HAS BEEN POSTPONED - THE RESCHEDULED DATE WILL BE ANNOUNCED ASAP"

SOOOOOO SAD!!!!!!!!

{She had postponed her show in Minneapolis on Thursday because her voice was gone... so our guess that was the case here too}

So instead of seeing a whole lotta this:


We walked around downtown in the rain :( but don't you worry, my man knows how to cheer this girl up... we made a stop to Rocky Mountain Chocolate Factory for an absolutely DELICIOUS caramel apple! YUM!!!

The day wasn't a complete bust... before Michael got off work, I went a did a little bit o' shoppin :). Yesterday was a momentous occasion for this gal:

I made my first purchase{s} at Anthropologie!!!

I've been in the store and visited their online site many of times, but I could just never justify spending that much on one item! But yesterday - they were having a FANTASTIC sale, AND I had a 15% off coupon they sent me for my Birthday!

Here are all of my amazing finds:



Are you ready for this? After the the sale price and discount... I got all of this for 60% off!!!!
WHOOT WHOOT!!!!
I'm so excited about each and every one of these pieces!!

{And it really, truly is a fantastic high to know that I got that great of a deal!!!}

As for Adele, we are just hoping and praying she doesn't reschedule for the week we are in New York!! I HAVE TO see her in concert!!

What a bummer! I am glad you still had a good night though. :) I am SO jealous of your Anthropologie purchases! I have been admiring that store since I was in high school. Love it!

Seriously, that's the biggest disappointment ever! Especially having gone to all those lengths! I should have just gone and filled in for her...
And totally, totally cute buys!! Just makes me more stoked for H & M!

I'm so jealous you got all that at Anthropologie! I can never afford items there. And so sorry you missed your concert! Sad day. Luckily you have such a nice hubby.
