We are barely into the second month of the year, but I have done, er, exceptionally well on my spend $2,000 on clothing goal. In fact, I have already spent $308.87 on five pieces, but they are all items that I love and should have for a long time.
I am trying to be much more conscientious about my purchases and buy things that I know I will enjoy for a long time. Given that I’ve spent 15% of my annual clothing budget in barely a month, I think it’s time to cool my jets a little. No more purchases for the rest of February.
Everything I’ve purchased has been on sale for at least 50% off the retail price… so the bargain hunter in me is pretty happy! The most expensive piece was the J.Crew Emmaleigh sheath dress, at $116.30 including shipping. The jacket and the velvet blazer clocked in at around $76-$80 each. The leopard shrug was $28 and the snakeskin belt was $20. None of the things were truly necessities (maybe except the suit – I could argue they would become necessities once I head back to school!), but they all fill a hole in my wardrobe.
