April budget


Or... as I shall say, ouch. I went way over budget this month. New York really threw a wrench into my plans. I thought I was done.. and then there was C Wonder. And J Crew. And no sales tax on clothes if you spend under 110.
At least everything I got was on sale? :/

So yeah. I'll have to be really, really good in May. Although I do need a new swimsuit for the Mexico trip that may be the only thing that I allow myself for next month.

Linking up with Franish - how did you do this month?

  1. It seems like everyone spent more in April! It must be a good month for shopping. That chevron sweater is so pretty!

  2. Well, as someone who also blew their budget way out of the ballpark, I can say, "Welcome to the Club!" The chevron sweater looks great and so does that blazer!

  6. I've never heard of C Wonder, but it looks amazing! Bummer about going over budget, but purchasing things on trips is totally justifiable - your clothes can be your souvenirs, haha!

  22. Everything said made a great deal of sense. But,
    what about this? what if you typed a catchier title?

    I mean, I don't want to tell you how to run your website, but suppose you added a title to maybe grab folk's
    attention? I mean "April budget" is kinda plain. You should look at
    Yahoo's home page and watch how they create news headlines to get people to open the links. You might add a related video or a pic or two to get readers interested about everything've written.
    In my opinion, it would make your blog a little bit more interesting.

  27. Hi there just wanted to give you a quick heads up.
    The words in your post seem to be running off the screen in Internet explorer.
    I'm not sure if this is a format issue or something to do with internet browser compatibility but I figured I'd post to let you know.
    The layout look great though! Hope you get the issue fixed soon.

  31. I was curious if you ever considered changing the page layout of
    your blog? Its very well written; I love what youve got to say.
    But maybe you could a little more in the way of content so people could connect with it better.
    Youve got an awful lot of text for only having 1 or two images.

    Maybe you could space it out better?
