Surviving

So about a week has gone by since I bought my last item. Pretty good, no? I'm no longer feeling guilty because I'm not buying anything. Yay! But I have started looking at dresses for the Winter Dance next year. Its a little early, I know, but its my first formal dance. I missed the other ones so I am really excited about this one. I'm thinking a one-shoulder dress in a deep red or green or blue. Its never too early to start looking! But I'm doing just fine not buying anything-well- more like surviving.

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.
