Which isn't to say that I didn't have any new clothes all year, because not buying simply gave me the chance to make more for myself, but of my entire 2011 wardrobe, only 12 pieces were actually bought. I thought that by the end of the year, I would feel pretty deprived. As it turns out, I actually feel pretty good.
Here is my final Merchandise of the Month!
Sweater from Gap |
All my Merchandises of the Month, 2011!
What I bought in: January, February, March, April, May/June/July, August, September/October/November
Should I try this again in 2012...?
That's amazingly cool! And your right... shoes definitely don't count; and come to think of it, neither does jewelry. :)
ReplyDeletenicely chosen. all of those items are so lovely. I feel like if I took this challenge I would buy ridiculously outlandish things that I would only wear once. story of my life.
ReplyDeleteAmazing challenge! And I was just about to ask if you would do it again next year... maybe shopping while on vacation with friends can not count either?! Think of all the cute stores we will pass on our roadtrip. (we'll support you of course!)
ReplyDeleteGoodness! that seems like it'd be a very difficult challenge, and I'm quite impressed that you actually followed through with it! I don't think I'd have the will power lol. I have a slight shopping addiction :)
ReplyDeleteYou go, girl! I just read about your challenge and wow! How awesome! So inspiring.
