Anyway...had to get out of the house so that I wouldn't say something I would regret, went to fill the car up with gas and then somehow that darned car of mine found it's way to Value Village...
So I cheated already (yes Kim...you can go ahead a gloat) BUT I only spent $52, it was all thrifted and this is what I got:
- Black Tahari dress pants ($9)
- Calvin Klein slim fit jeans ($6)
- Zara multicoloured dress ($12)
- Faux pearl & gold evening clutch ($6)
- Cleo green faux leather tote ($7)
- and the find of the night: a beautiful black & red Kate Spade purse ($12)
These are all items I can use, nothing requires alterations and all are in mint condition.
Lessons learned:
- send my husband next time to get gas
- never use shopping as anger management therapy
It is really hard not to cheat but I do agree never use something you know is destructive to you as therapy...mine is eating :(
ReplyDeleteHey Kristin! It amazed me how automatically I resorted to shopping to calm myself down. Not good (although I did score some lovely items)!
ReplyDeleteIf it makes you feel any better, my shopping hiatus was hijacked last week when Gap sent me a 30% off coupon, plus I always get 10% off there additionally, so I decided I had to have another pair of skinny jeans to tuck into boots since I only have 1... I probably could have managed without, those darn coupons!!
ReplyDeleteCoupons are evil!!! At least you didn't pay full price - maybe 30% off means 30% less guilt???
ReplyDeleteI just bought my first pair of skinnies (cheap brand to try out - am now hooked) - do you like the Gap skinnies a lot?
