Confession of a Shopaholic

Ok. I cracked. The pressure finally got to me. I lasted a week without buying anything. But then I went to the mall with one of my friends, and what do you know! Victoria's Secret was having a semi-annual sale. That means 75% off some great deals. I simply couldn't resist buying a $2 ahhdorable makeup bag. It was a great deal and I needed a makeup bag. So win-win? Not quite. It may just be me, but I always feel guilty after buying something, no matter if it was a good deal or not. I think its my mother's frugality and lack of materialism (pardon the big words) kicking in there. So even though it was a great deal, I still felt guilty! But I'm starting over with a clean slate. I don't need anything else. Maybe I CAN go the entire summer without buying anything. Keep reading to find out.

Day 1 under the sun

Day 1- not one flip flop! Thats right: I did not buy an single thing today, including not clothes. I have observed though, people who just bought clothes today just because they felt like it and they had the money. Thats what I'm trying to avoid doing: buying things just because I can. Sure I could go to the mall and blow all my money. Its the Gossip Girl thing to do. But I don't need to. I've got enough clothes that WILL last me the summer. All right enough preaching. If anyone even reads this blog, drop comments like they're out of stlye ponchos! Let me know what YOU think.

A New Beginning

I have decided to revamp this blog. Its going to document my summer. But theres a catch: its a summer without shopping. Thats right I am going the entire summer without buying anymore clothes, shoes, purses, necklaces, or things I just dont need. I want to see if its going to change my life. :) Hopefully, if I'm lucky, it will. Wish me luck on my journey!
You know you love me~
