Utilization doesn't enter into it, nor, really, do financials.

I think I mostly feel guilty and inclined to take it down a notch is because I ended up spending more than I thought I would during all the holiday sales. I didn't keep it all, got some pieces I really like, but I also know that I didn't exactly *need* some of them, technically. Sigh. For now, I'm just glad that I'm able to resist! 😉TM93https://www.blogger.com/profile/18166897306461544844noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1317882250647868056.post-66643496192207672322017-01-11T22:59:56.918-05:002017-01-11T22:59:56.918-05:00Maybe we need a virtual support group.

Right? Husbands will never understand the need for 10 coats and 20 pairs of black heels (different material, height and shape of heel, shape of toe, etc.). No need for him to approve unless we are singlehandedly causing havoc to our budget and put the marriage at financial risk.

I've worn those St.James tees multiple times and in general I like J Crew's tees. And what's not to love about the excursion vests!<br /><br />I was finally able to order the one thing I wanted, Collection maxi skirt in wool flannel; the grey is a great color and I love the tartan plaid. I've worn it a bunch. Problem with phones at Shorthills so took a while. Sold out online but stores definitely have inventory, so I'd call if there's something you want. For those interested in Drake, it's all on sale. <br /><br />In new arrivals, I like the geometric eyelet shell. Baltic Sea floral print is interesting, but looking forward to other print options for spring. Photos on @carol06hawk show promise. Got "burned" last year with spring pre-orders. Everything made it to sale + %off sale, so I'll be wish listing most items.Mygoddyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09240250626088757693noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1317882250647868056.post-34242356065344922422017-01-11T16:14:16.491-05:002017-01-11T16:14:16.491-05:00Five separate package notifications for the order ...Five separate package notifications for the order I placed yesterday. Just another reason to try to limit my shopping. I ordered multiple sizes of a few things due to inconsistent sizing. Hate looking like a shopoholic.
