yeah- i don't think anyone in this thread is actually a shopaholic that needs to be in some recovery program...
...
it's more of a tongue in cheek title to just keep us on budget and on target...
to encourage thoughtful purchases rather than impulse buys that will wind up on the closet floor or in a giveaway bag...
i see too many people just buying stuff and buying stuff and buying stuff...without even really thinking---
then the next day or weekend they are at it again...
*and then they often feel sick and guilty afterwards...
i feel sad when i see that...
most people like that don't even really appreciate what they have...
because they are always looking for something else...
...
i think now is a good time to start doing what kim was talking about...
pulling stuff out of the closet and trying things on to see how to wear them for fall...
the new season always brings new opportunities for new looks...
i got a lot of things at the end of season this year---
so i have a lot of new things that i have been waiting to wear when the air gets more of a chill...
i hope that will keep me busy enough to avoid purchasing anything new ---
at least for a little while!...
