I have been such a good girl this year! I have not shopped a single piece of clothing yet since the year started. As difficult as it was, I was able to resist the tempting rounds of clearance last January -- a few times I almost gave in but realized I already have so much in my closet ( take a peek here)!
The last time I went shopping a few months back, I got a little bit overboard at Michael Kors and got about 20 or so pieces -- sheath dresses, skirts and tops. It was my very first shopping experience where I bought items not because they were on sale but because I like them and they fit me well. It was also, to date, my most expensive shopping in a single trip.
It was worth every penny! My office outfits the past 2 months has been nothing but remixing the items I bought that day.
Here's one remix I wore a few weeks back.
-- Michael Michael Kors tweed sheath dress -- Michael Kors skinny belt -- "souvenir" boots from Brazil --
-- black bolero from Manila -- thrifted necklace for 25 cents! --
This is fabulous - and good for you! Sometimes I think shopping sprees are better than shopping a little bit here and there. The purchases are generally more cohesive, and make sense together. Clearly, you made some smart decisions that day!
