After an 8-month wardrobe overhaul and shopping binge (whew! even writing that made me exhausted) I'm declaring myself on SYC for the next 3-6 months. I'm allowing myself to buy underwear (still need a strapless bra) and to request items for gifts, but I'm not going to buy any new clothing, shoes, or jewelry until at least January 1. If all goes well I'll push on until March, when my bff and I take our annual trip to NYC. Wish me luck!

I'm nervous but also looking forward to the challenge, and curious about how well my newly restocked wardrobe works together. It feel like a good time to start since my fall/winter wardrobe is stronger than my spring/summer one. By the time spring rolls around I'll be refreshed and ready to shop.
