The Want Demon in full force

I want a chambray shirt and polka dot jeans.  And no doubt after I buy them, I will desperately need something else for my over full wardrobe.  The chambray shirt I have wanted for AGES, but kept justifying why I didn't need it.  Thanks to Blogger 'Putting Me Together', I now know I really really do need a chambray shirt.

My spending bucket is about to come to complete halt due to saving for our mid year holidays - I need spending money in New York!

Mimco keep sucking me in, they sent me $30 mimcollective points for my birthday.  I bought this clutch in-store for $69 - so it only cost me $39!  I am definitely not only Mimco'd out but Bag'd out, it will be a long time before I buy another bag or step online or in-store to Mimco.  I got my watch today and while it is pretty, its original price was $179 and it doesn't feel like an expensive watch at all.  Luckily I don't have to do to much work at Polyvore putting together outfits with my clutch as heaps of people already have :-). http://www.polyvore.com/mimco_hybrid_clutch/thing?id=65264096.

My bower bird nest needs new draws

I have a serious jewellery collection. I love accessories and nothing goes to waste. But recently I have started running out of storage for it, earlier this year I bought another hanging storage bag from DivA, but it's to annoying so I added it to my Lifeline donations bag. Currently all my makeup/skin care is in a set of plastic drawers that I got from a cheapo shop, and it's worked perfectly for years. So I'm going to get another set and try it for jewellery storage. Especially as I just added a huge Lovisa haul to my collection. Lovisa are having a massive sale and I got all this for $60!! Saved hundreds, I was tempted to get a lot more but I blew my budget just getting this much. I heart all of it. Also just got my Dotti sale items that I bought online (previously posted), disappointed that one of the $10 bikini's was out of stock so they had refunded me, but the $5.95 dress reduced from $69.95 was Amazing - best bargain ever! And the Chloe knock off boots look great, which was a huge relief.

Party dress galore

I bought two more party dresses from ASOS, apparently I have a lot of parties to go to in 2013 considering how many I have in my cupboard now. But you never know when you will have an occasion and these dresses were a bargain - the off shoulder dress was $100 off at $36 and the sequin dress was $50 off at $22. The black sequin will look great with a colored necklace or a glittery black one. I'm off to www.polyvore.com to put together my outfits :-).

wardrobe woes

I need to declutter my wardrobe - I know, its not a terrible woe.  But I only decluttered properly a few months ago, so there really is not anything in there I want to cull anyway.  I just want to add more arggghh.  I really want this Black Milk skirt but I am NOT going to buy it, very sad face.  I already have these NY Black Milk leggings.... EEEK.   Am currently creating an ASOS Winter wardrobe saved bag, so I can keep an eye on sales items for when the UK go into Spring and the Winter stuff goes on sale.  I also really want this pin board...I am the want monster!

Waiting by the mailbox

Got my tracking number from Mimco AND got $50 in Mimcollective points! The Mimcollective reward system is actually one of the best ones I have come across. I was trying to be good and spend my reward points in the actual Mimco store instead of online, but there was pretty much nothing left instore. A total waste of my time, but I was good and didn't even peek in at the other sales at the shops. So I hoped online and found an awesome watch! Unfortunately I also had to pay the $9.95 shipping. It was $89 reduced from $179 (plus shipping). My New Years resolution of drinking less wine will help pay for the extra $$ needed to get the watch (it was $48 out of my pocket).

Stack it up

Loving the stacking bangles/watches look. Though I still actually love the cheap Lovisa watches I bought a few months ago, I was a lucky girl at Xmas and hubby bought me a Marc Jacobs watch. Found an awesome blog post about how to stack: http://dressmeblog.me/stack-it/.

The spending bucket is now empty

Me and the Summer Sales are through. I've spent all my money! Luckily I don't have a credit card so I can't be tempted any further. I am really loving the fashion at the moment. I picked up from the Sportsgirl sale three things that I had been wanting for ages. In fact it took all my will power not to buy the shirt and skirt at full price. Luckily I didn't because they went on sale and I got the shirt for $29.95, the skirt for $29.95 and the pants for $39.95. A savings of $100! The pants are really different for me, I hope I can pull them off....
