February Purchases: How I Did

At the end of January I said that I wouldn't be doing any shopping in February. Whoops. Here is a breakdown of what I purchased/gifted this month.

Purchased:





Pictured: 4 tops for spring (2 from Old Navy and two from TJ Maxx) $46 total, vintage Longchamp coin purse from the antique mall $5, vintage necklace from the antique mall $10, large cuff with agate purchased with gift card $0, brass and horn cuff purchased from Ebay for my upcoming store (details to follow) $0, turquoise bracelet from Ebay (definitely an impulse purchase) $12.

Not pictured: Carry-on for upcoming trip to FL (currently in transit) $50, two scarves from Ebay $10 total, purse from Forever 21 $30ish (its all of a sudden not on the site anymore), sunglasses $10.

I sold all of my Stella & Dot samples on Ebay so I had some extra cash. Total spent $173. Woah, went way over budget. Putting all this down in my blog definitely holds me accountable and is making me realize how much I am spending.

Gifted:



Pictured: Bag from Handbag Heaven and necklaces from my sister in law.

Ok, in March I really need to buy a pair of black flats. Hopefully that is it, but you know me.... I can't resist a good deal ;)

Ugh, I recently put myself on a shopping "diet," but I feel like my wardrobe is really lacking for spring, so I might need to cheat a little.

Your Feb purchases are super cute!

All of the jewelry you purchased in February was well worth it. Don't feel too guilty the same thing happens to me :)
