Hello! Look who decided to brave the other side of the camera again?
Spring is here in all its glory and I'm excited! I've been getting out any colour other than black and wearing it with bold courage.
Because it was my birthday recently, I thought I could splurge on a new top or two for spring. Turns out I haven't bought anything since the beginning of autumn. It's been a conscious effort, and I'm so proud of myself. In the meantime, I've been making the most of what I have and mixing it to death.
Before children (and when the cash flow was slightly better), I found myself purchasing clothes more frequently, but ever since we've had the two little lads (and lived in some pretty isolated places), I found that I buy a few things in one shopping sitting, and then don't shop again for ages.
Kind of like my husband when I think about it. He won't buy anything for six months, then purchase all of his winter gear in one hit, and when the weather gets warmer, another hit.
Sometimes I put on an outfit and think to myself how long I've been wearing those items, and still can because they've been timeless. Like the necklace I'm wearing. It's six years old. The cutoffs (that use to be jeans). They're four years old. The sunnies? Seven years old.
One word: smug.
When was the last time you bought some clothes? Do you ebb and flow like me, or trickle your purchases throughout the year?
Why don't you linky up your Fancy Pants post below (yes, you need to
have a photo in an outfit!) and add a link back to me in your post. You
can also include button below. Then pop over to visit other bloggers who
are dressing up this week.
Thanks for stopping by!
