A Challenge To Consider

I stumbled upon The Green Gal blog yesterday when someone retweeted the end of her challenge not to buy any new clothing for a year. She accomplished her goal, and looked cute doing it. I asked my husband if he thought I could do it, and he said no. I have a hard time believing I could do it too. I work in a clothing store where I get 50 % off, and an addiction to shopping. So I've decided to challenge myself by tweaking her challenge a bit if I have a major corporate visit (that requires me to wear a new trendy item). I'm hoping this will save me money, and help me beat my crazy shopping addiction. I also love wearing vintage, since it's something no one else has. So here's to day 1.....

You go girl! I was thinking I would still be very proud of you if you set your goal at only 1 new piece of clothing a month goal ^^

I bought a dress from this site, it might help you out with your shopping cravings

Wow, working in a clothes store will make it much more of a challenge for you than it was for me, I just didn't go in any clothes shops but you can't do that! However you work it I'm just really pleased you feel a smidgen inspired by me and I'm sure you can do anything you put your mind to :)
