Tuesday Update: Minimizing My Wardrobe.
October 9, 2012
Every Tuesday (or Thursday or Saturday…), I’m posting a status on one of my goals. After last week’s raw and gritty post, I realized that nothing is going to change unless I do something drastic. More than just shopping less, spending less, sticking to a list, etc. No, it needs to hurt. I’ve been reading…

Tuesday Update: Loopholes.
October 16, 2012
Minimizing my wardrobe is not going as well as I’d hoped. After being caught in a downpour with a too-small trench coat that I can’t zip up, I realized I needed a new trench coat. And I wanted a GOOD one, an investment piece. Not just something on sale that may or may not fit…

Tuesday Update: Image Isn’t Everything.
October 23, 2012
I just got back from a nice, long weekend away, where I did something shocking, for me. Or rather, I didn’t do. I didn’t pack a travel capsule. I didn’t pack my best. I didn’t try on a bunch of outfits before packing, to make sure everything was coordinated. I left my jewelry and 99%…

Tuesday Update: A New Habit.
February 5, 2013
One of my goals was to find some healthier habits to replace shopping. Honestly, this was one of the lowest priorities for me and I didn’t think I’d actually tackle it this soon. But my heart and mind were ready to be inspired by the success story of a stranger. It was the right time,…

Tuesday Update: Fitness Broke Unshopping.
February 12, 2013
So much for my new habit! Getting healthy and fit is taking a toll on my wallet. It shouldn’t, except that I am a gadget geek, as is my husband. Last month, I bought a nifty little device that tracks my daily steps and calories burned. This month, I had an episode of sanctioned shopping…
