Catch Ya Later, Alligator

Patience is a virtue, as they say. And I have no problem waiting out the crowds to score at end-of-season clearance sales, especially since spring is still months away. Today I stopped by Topshop, and they were clearing out their winter stock to make room for tank tops and floaty dresses (a.k.a. nothing I'll be wearing anytime soon). I crossed my fingers, wished on a star, and found the Christopher Kane crocodile dress I wanted when the collection debuted. I got it for $20, and – trust me – I'll be wearing it well past spring.
