Welcome

I'd like to welcome you to my first shopping blog.

I go shopping all the freakin time, but my gift is my ability to NOT buy. I started reading the book, How to be a Budget Fashionista, and I realized I already practice most of the tricks and tips.

Here's reality. We live in a world that praises glitz and glam. We splurge on high fashion we may not be able to afford. We forget to figure ourselves out. We let others tell us how to look.

I've been reading more and more articles on middle to higher class families dealing with bankruptcy. Shows like My Super Sweet 16 are not just about snobby, uneducated teens. They are about competitive, unrealistic parents.

Only a small percentage of the world can afford luxury.

If you don't absolutely love it. If you're not excited to wear it. If you can't see it re-emerging in the future. DON'T BUY IT!!

You will be reading about a lot of items on this blog that you are not going to buy... but you're going to want to be aware of them and learn about them.

I like to call it shopping.
