I officially started my 'one nice item per month' purchase:

[Antonia]

I just picked up this cute jacket on sale from a boutique down the street from my house. Has anyone heard of Smythe? I happened to see this same jacket on Saks in the same exact color. It's originally $570 and I paid $230. Thanks for letting me share!!
Oh and I picked up a brand new pair of Ferragamo pumps at the consignment store next door to that store for $50!! (I guess that's 2 nice items-lol)

I like that idea - sort of a benchmark to pace yourself, without feeling deprived.

Well, it depends! If it's a pricier item, then yes....otherwise it could be twice a month since I get paid every other week, but hopefully I will stick to my original plan. Wish me luck!! I have to stay focused!

I love the idea! It's kind of like going on a diet and allowing one cookie/brownie/whatever once a week or something! LOL

 

[mooks]

I love Smythe, beautifully made
