If you want to get a closet-full of clothes all you have to do is not put up a fuss when your husband wants to buy a bunch of new snowboard gear and a season pass (or whatever said object of desire may happen to be). Then your husband (probably out of guilt) will say:
“Gee dear…you haven’t bought yourself anything in awhile. Why don’t you go shopping and get yourself something nice?
Then you can say:
“You know what darling? I think maybe I will.”
OK…so I know I don’t need Craig’s permission to go shopping, but it’s always nice when it’s his idea that I go spend money. That way I don’t have to justify my purchases later (i.e. my last minute impulse buy of a piggy bank I’ve never put a dime in. What? Of course I need it. Doesn’t everybody need a cute, yellow ceramic pig sitting on their shelf?). I’m glad he’s fiscally responsible though and makes us save up for said snowboard gear and clothing instead of putting everything on credit. Debt would be no fun. Thanks for being responsible love!
Here are my great finds:
outfit #1
sweater detail. I love the gold chain. it’s from Ross.
boot close up. (boots from love culture).
purse detail. (purse from forever 21).
outfit #2. (shirt from love culture. $12.50 jeans from F21).
classic lace-up grey vans I’ve been wanting forever. (my biggest splurge).
rings. all from charlotte russe except the owl from F21).
earrings from charlotte russe.
basic long layering camis to cover my butt when I wear leggings all winter long (love culture).
I think I maybe had more fun styling my stuff for taking pictures than I did during the actual shopping.
everything you bought is so cute! LOVE the owl ring.. I buy anything and everything with owls on it. I even considered getting an owl tattoo once… also love plaid. so happy it’s “in” right now. and i need a pair of boots, too. what is love culture?? I’ll google it…
love culture’s website didn’t work, or i would’ve linked to it. it was actually my first time going. it’s kinda like forever 21, but maybe a little cheaper.
Great boots and rings! I love the owls, too!
This strategy only works if your husband buys things. Sadly, mine never does.
P.S. I like your sweet Napoleon moves in that first picture.
I love the boots! And the earrings! And, well, basically everything! I’ve never heard of Love Culture, but I’m going to check it out now!
what cool boots! And I love the rings too! I’m so lazy when it comes to accessorizing :/
yay for guilt-free shopping though!!
