I Confess I am a Shopaholic

So I attempt to save money and it doesnt work out as well as I plan...

I took my little sister out for some sushi and shopped around at the H&M that just opened at the Del Amo mall. A friend of mine is writing a fashion blog about how she's refusing to buy new clothing or accessories for a whole year (Erica Cee Steves on facebook!), and I cannot even fathom how she's surviving. Although she is much better with a sewing machine than myself.

So I saw the sale sign in the window and was enticed immediately to check out the nubby knits at buy one get one free. I actually showed some restraint though- I know I have tons of sweaters and knits and didn't pick any up.

However, a fat girls haven is the accessories section. I snatched up 2 pairs of stud earrings, 1 pair of silver hoops, a beautiful bejewelled oversized cuff, and a bold statement necklace with large jewels and chains. I also bought my little sister some silver cocktail rings. Not that H&M is uber expensive, but I better pick up an extra shift to cover that...



My goal for this week is to hit the gym a little more, and the mall a little less... I'll keep you posted on how that goes...
