I never go shopping randomly. All my shopping is planned out, so I have all day, and can save up for the event. And it's split into TWO days.
The first day I don't bring ANY money with. I try on a million things, mix and match outfits, make sure everything fits right, ect. Then I go home and THINK ABOUT IT. And look through my wardrobe to make sure everything I want to buy would have something to go with. What's the point of buying it if you don't have an outfit to wear it with?
Then the next day I go buy everything. In and out quick so I don't get sidetracked by other clothes that I DON'T.
And each season, I write out a NEED list and a WANT list. I buy everything off the need list before first, so there are no holes in my wardrobe. Like MurakamiPrincess said she has no solid colored shirts, even though she shops alot. Before I had no white button ups and no trench coat. But I made them my priorities this time, and then went shopping for the fun stuff after. And when you buy the fun stuff last, you don't have as much money (because you should be sticking to a budget!) , so your sure to buy what you really really want.

That is such a good idea. i might try it sometime although i doubt it would extinguish the need to spend flame!!Originally posted by Leikochan@Mar 1st, 2004 - 7:42 am
I pretend-shop online whenever I feel the urge to buy something new. I fill up my shopping cart with anything and everything I want, regardless of price. When I proceed to check out and see the total amount (which is usually in the $2000+ range) I just close my browser and feel damn good that I didn't spend all that money. It's actually quite satisfying . . .
