At the end of 2010, I calculated how much money I had spent on clothes throughout the whole year. And the number was jaw-dropping. I could blame it on spending the summer in New York City or other things of that nature, but the truth is: I wasn't being careful with my money or being a mindful shopper. Over the past few months, I have reigned in my spending and have started using some of the lessons I learned from my two 30x30 challenges to be a better shopper. But let me tell you, with spring around the corner, my self-control is really starting to dwindle. I was trying to save some money so I could do a little shopping while I'm in Cincinnati over spring break, but a few things have caught my eye recently...
Seychelles "Amethyst" Pump from NordstromOkay so I'm not actually even considering buying the last shoe because it's a bit out of my current budget, but the first two are definitely contenders. So what do you think? Whenever I like something on Modcloth, I always feel pressure to decide fast before it sells out. Should this skirt be my first ever Modcloth purchase? And what about the wedges? They would be a perfect replacement for the Cynthia Vincent for Target wedges I swooned over all of last summer. Decisions, decisions...

haha great picks! I say that mostly because that skirt caught my eye yesterday and those Seychelles shoes have been sitting in a "shopping bag" on my computer for weeks.
love them!

I love the wedges.
I would get the wedges and pass on the skirt. The wedges are so cool and you could probably wear them with just about anything. I don't personally think the skirt is that special.
I know what you mean about not spending wisely and the annual amount being jaw-dropping. I started keeping a spreadsheet of everything I buy for myself and it adds up quickly each month. It doesn't seem like I'm buying much, but when you add it all up, it's sort of embarrassing!
