The only thing is, I am afraid of commitment. It scares me like monsters under my bed and ax murders in my closet and peeing my pants in front of a group of my peers and spiders in my mouth (Don't ask.) I do not want to commit to that being my bedding forever. Or at least until December. I have had my bedding for over 5 years and honestly it looks just like this but the background is deep red and the swirls are gold. It cost me $52 for the entire set. It is WELL worn. But it is not costing me anything just lying there on my bed. This bedding would mean change. This makes my armpits sweat. What if I commit to this and find something better next week? And it is yellow with small birds and it chirps when I lay down at night and nibbles my ear with its cute little beak and scares off all snakes and worms that might try to enter my bed while i am sleeping? And then, worst of all, it is on ....gasp...clearance for like $4.18? I know, I know, I would buy it for $4.18, but what if it is more and I love it better and I have settled for this? And it is a totally different style and I realize this is not me anymore cause I change like every 8.725 seconds? And what if this is ugly on my bed and my 2 year old pees on it -- or worse, what if I pee on it? (Please do not judge me, it could happen.)So, what do you think about this? What does it shout to you? European? Country? French? 80's? Crack Head? Dirty Bedding? Someone has no interior design skills? I am sleepy? Pass the croutons? What if I said the entire set is $85.44? Final cost -- shipping, handling, tax, everything! Now what do you say? Run? Run to the hills? Buy it. Lie to your husband who thinks bedding should last at least 50 years and thinks I change things too often and thinks I am a shopaholic and still loves me cause I look good when his contacts are out. Help! I need advice.
Love,
Structured and Orderly Country Girl

It screams fancy schmancy hotel to me...
Of course, I am a staunch Victorian kind of gal, so don't listen to me.
i like it...in a Pottery Barn chi-chi kinda way. If you love it...then for $85 you bettery buy it! :-)
I think it's very classy looking! Just as I imagine you and your family :)
I like it, but don't know if I would like it in December. I agree with chocolatechic - tres chic hotel.
I think it's pretty spectacular. In the words of Wilma Flintstone, "CHARGE IT!"
Okay, this would SOOOO be worth going to bed with a pair of Depends on. Pee, schmee... I think it's positively stunning. I love, love, love, love, love it. How cool would it be with a vase of yellow flowers next to the bed? Or red? Very cool. Seriously, $85 is nothing compared to what some cost now. Go for it!
I say if you like it buy it. If in December you hate it, or something better comes along. Pee on it, then buy the new one too.
It's awesome....
