Those are some seriously fierce boots. Love 'em. Kudos to you on sticking with the commitment, that could not have been easy. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/i-managed-to-survive-a-shopping-trip#post-281571 Mon, 17 Jan 2011 00:48:39 +0000 Sveta 281571@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Good for you, Una! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/i-managed-to-survive-a-shopping-trip#post-281566 Mon, 17 Jan 2011 00:44:39 +0000 Marley 281566@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Woo-hoo! Way to go Una! Good idea about wearing clothes that made it difficult to change in and out of! My only problem with that strategy is that I just instantly head to the handbags instead - ya' don't need to change your clothes to "try on" a new handbag! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/i-managed-to-survive-a-shopping-trip#post-281458 Sun, 16 Jan 2011 21:44:04 +0000 Lisa 281458@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Congrats, you did great sticking to SYC! I liked your strategy to wear difficult to change clothes and keep a mental list in mind. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/i-managed-to-survive-a-shopping-trip#post-281453 Sun, 16 Jan 2011 21:38:06 +0000 MNsara 281453@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Wow - that IS willpower!! I am impressed that you even managed to purge some more from your closet on top of it all!</p> <p>Way to go </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/i-managed-to-survive-a-shopping-trip#post-281450 Sun, 16 Jan 2011 21:27:05 +0000 lyn* 281450@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Whoa!

A friend and I took her 13 year old shopping for boots and clothes. We spent the entire day at the mall, including Nordstrom, BR, and Gap... all tempting places to be. She ended up with these Docs, which I had to model for her because she wanted to see how they looked with skinnes. It was a close call but I held out. These boots are ADORABLE.</p> <p><a href="http://www.endless.com/Dr-Martens-Womens-Aletta-Buckle/dp/B003S3SPQW/ref=sr_1_6?ie=UTF8&#038;cAsin=B003S3SPNA&#038;fromPage=search&#038;sr=1-6&#038;qid=1295211517445&#038;asins=B003S3SPLW%2CB003S3SPP8%2CB003K164A6%2CB003GSLM64%2CB003S3SPKS%2CB003S3SPNA&#038;asinTitle=Dr.%20Martens%20Aletta%20Buckle%20Boot&#038;contextTitle=search%20results&#038;node=241745011&#038;sort=relevance-fs-rank&#038;keywords=dr.+martens+women+buckle#__asin=B003S3SPLW&#038;ref=dp_cs_1" rel="nofollow">http://www.endless.com/Dr-Mart.....ef=dp_cs_1</a></p> <p>I made it a point to wear an outfit that was difficult to change in and out of, as well as my OTK boots which do not come on and off easily. That helped me resist temptation. I'm also keeping a list of things I may want later on, and these boots are on that list!</p> <p>I also was able to get the 13 year old to take a bunch of clothes from my closet that I was wavering on. </p>
