Since I started having computer issues, I think that I have bought the heeled summer sandals that I had been looking for, the Target sweater that I have gotten so much use out of, and the top and dress that I found with Angie. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/sycsyb-check-ins#post-363401 Wed, 08 Jun 2011 22:44:27 +0000 Mo 363401@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks Heather, but, man, that didn't last long!! I am $10 into July's budget and out of b-day cash finally thanks to the 'wedding capsule' dress. But it was far from an impulse buy - I've been on the lookout for over a month. And I'm sure I won't wear it until fall or later.<br /> Enough rationalizations - I BLEW IT! Okay, I feel better now </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/sycsyb-check-ins#post-362362 Tue, 07 Jun 2011 03:28:34 +0000 Heather 362362@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Malina, your SYB revelations are always a favorite of mine. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/sycsyb-check-ins#post-362343 Tue, 07 Jun 2011 02:30:38 +0000 Mo 362343@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Another week is down and I did a lot of looking but no buying. Just awaiting prior purchased stuff in the mail mostly. The birthday money is drying up lol. But honestly, I feel like I have what I need. I have come to that place where I'm feeling most bases are covered. I think the shift towards accessories may have helped. Also, I somewhere mentally shifted to the thought that I don't need to wear a different outfit all the time - repetition is okay! Maybe my years of uniform wearing had me seeking variety in my off time, to the point that having more and different outfits was the most important thing about my wardrobe. Could be that this was all subconscious and I never thought about it. Also, I'll admit to being lazy in really trying to work new looks out of what I have. I'm trying to change that. Buying accessories, and true basics (the drapey white tee I've been on a hunt for lately) will help me toward that end. That's where the SYB is at this point, for me. </p> <p>Officially, no purchases this week but I'm still awaiting a thin patent red belt, a white tee, and some wooden earrings. I have maybe $15 birthday cash left to piddle away, and June's budget ran dry weeks ago :)</p> <p>How is everyone else doing? </p>
