It's the start of another new month, and I feel obligated to address the results of last month's shopping ban. And they are: I shopped. I know I shouldn't have, and I KNOW I did not need to. If nothing else, these attempted bans only further enlighten me to how much of a shopping addict I have become, because it is just so hard not to.
As for what I bought; my favorite secondhand shop, Coco's on the Green was having it's annual half off sale and there were a couple items I could not resist. The first is the pair of sandals I'm wearing in this post, they are by Salvatore Ferragamo and were reduced to $9! The other item is a white lace skirt, reduced to $15 that I'm sure you will be seeing soon.
My third purchase was a swimsuit. Last week I was in the middle of 'nowhere' MA, with 90 minutes to kill. What was I to do other than type 'TJMaxx' into google maps? To my delight I found my way to a huge, brand spanking new TJMaxx and then proceeded to try on nearly every suit in the store. I eventually ended up with a
bright orange Michael Kors one piece for $38 (and a
Julep nail polish for $5).
I also bought, and subsequently returned these
star sandals from Delia's and the
scalloped hem PJs from J.Crew (less shipping costs).
Additionally I placed an order for a couple of the Peter Som for Kohl's pieces, the
white eyelet lace shorts and
palazzo pants. They haven't arrived yet, so I'm not sure if I am keeping them or not.
I've decided to try the ban again this month and hopefully do better, though I do have a few gift cards I am welcome to spend!
