Currently Craving: Shopping Ban Edition

With a little over a week left in February, I am close to completing the second month of the six month no shopping ban I set as one of my style resolutions this year. And friends, I’m not gonna lie and say it’s getting any easier – it’s actually getting really hard. The shopping itch is setting in and it’s taking a lot of will power to stand firm on my mission to forgo shopping until July?!? While I must admit the window shopping isn’t helping, it is giving me inspiration for how to style my already massive closet come Spring. The fact that I’m over my Winter wardrobe, however, probably has something to do with it being so hard but I digress cause I’m pretty sure Punxsutawney Phil saw his shadow, so I better get used to my Winter pieces.

Today I thought I’d share some of the items I’m lusting over and ones that I’m taking mental note to include in my imaginary shopping cart. There are just so many great pieces out there right now! This bag (how freakin’ cute is it?!) and these boots (um, embroidery!) are actually items I technically can add to my closet because of saved up store credit (!!), but I’m reluctant to poke the bear inside me and start a shopping frenzy I may not be able to stop. What do you think, should I pull the proverbial trigger? I wouldn’t technically be spending current money – its store credit;) Also on my lust list – these low block ankle strap heels are calling my name, especially in the punchy color for Spring and Summer! And while they’re pricey, these overalls are killer! I hate to admit it but the ruffle sweater trend looks so cute and feminine, and can we talk about these drop earrings?? Gah, so much goodness!
