Okay so here’s the deal. I have a lot of clothes, this is no secret.
Therefore, I am going to try really.. really.. REALLY hard to stick to only buying things on my actual Wish List for shopping.

- Neiman Marcus Commando Nude Tank to wear under sheer ivory shirts*
- Crimson red dress**
- Frye Ballet Flats: Carson, Regina or Carson Trapunto’s***
- Simple Ankle/Mid-Calf Leather Boots****
- New Starbucks Stainless Steel Double-Walled Mug — mine has lost the rubber seal which makes it waterproof *tear*
- Simple, Minimalist Men’s Watch — Braun Analog Watch looks nice, but the price makes me cry
- A Wide-Striped Shirt with thin white stripes. I like this one from 3 Dots @ Bluefly..
- Fujitsu ScanSnap S1100 USB-powered Mobile Scanner
- Pill & Fuzz buster; I’m looking at this Remington Battery Operated Fabric Shaver
- BBC’s The Private Life of a Masterpiece: The Complete Seasons 1-5 on DVD
*I am very picky and I want a thick but seamless strapped tank top that will cover my body and not show my bra. After all, I am not French, and I cannot pull off wearing a black bra under sheer ivory shirts and still look chic and comfortable.
**Will you believe that in my entire wardrobe, I don’t own a single crimson red dress, and it’s one of the most flattering colours on me!?
***My Rudsak flats are about to die. The stretch is gone at the back (slips off now), and it has been worn to death in less than a year. Low quality, never buying Rudsak again.
****Wearing these under pants at work is a far better option than heels. Why? Because heels get caught in the darn shoe if your foot happens to come out when you are climbing stairs or simply walking. I’ve almost tripped on a number of occasions. These boots are needed.
Just a girl trying to find a balance between being a Shopaholic and a Saver.
I cleared $60,000 in 18 months earning $65,000 gross/year.
Now I am self-employed, and you can read more about 
I have a bookmarks wishlist, though I’m thinking of moving it to a pinterest board. But basically, if I really want something I file it under my “online shopping” bookmarks and leave it there for a little while. If I’ve forgotten about it in a month or two then I just delete the bookmark. But if I have some extra cash, I’ll pick something I think I could really use on the list.
Right now all I “need” are some closed-toe flats and a pair of hardcore winter boots. I’m also really wanting a Clarisonic but I know that’s really not necessary, even though I think it’d be nice, so we’ll see.
Etsy saves my favourites which kills my wallet when I go browsing. No more browsing for me!
ooo! a wishlist is a good idea. and i must stick to it. i already have so much stuff too!
Frye flats for sure. I am a huge fan of Frye. Other than that no wish list for me. Just save and stop spending like crazy. That’s my wish list. 🙂
Even though I want a lot I know I am not buying anything save for the basics like that mug!!!!
If you check out Starbucks 12 days of gifts, they’re selling a travel mug for $19.95 on the 12th, and you get free coffee/tea for the entire month of January!
Gah! Perfect!
Out of your list, I want the tank top, mug, and scanner. Especially the scanner. It looks easy to use (unlike other scanners I have used). Great list!
(Yes, it’s very true. Heels do come off when climbing stairs.)
I hve been eying that scanner for a long time. I cannot really see it in stores so I might have to order it online…
