1 month down, 1 1/2 to go

My NO-shopping spree has been tough.
The month of January was looooong.. long without buying just even one cute top for myself.
I'm proud of myself, and Brett's proud of me too- but that doesn't make me feel better about passing up some of the cute things I've seen at target, and local adorable consignment shops.
I tell Brett sometimes when I go see cute things in stores I get panic attacks- because I know they will be gone in March when I'm allowed to buy things again. I mean, I don't get panic attacks like falling on the ground breathing into a paper bag in the store or anything, but I definitely get stressed and a little envious/angry at all the women I see buying clothes around me. :)

There are some good things that have come of this resolution besides saving money.
I have bean cleaning out my closet a little bit, wearing things I haven't worn in a long time. I've also found new ways to wear some of my favorite items, wearing them with new things.

So it's been refreshing and fun- but I do reminisce some times of this really cute white and red striped GAP sweater and J.Crew Plaid shirt I passed up in an adorable consignment shop.

And I am counting down the days until March 19....
when I can be unleashed :)
