EEEEPPPP. Normally, I'd freak out. However, the majority of these items were purchased in Oregon without sales tax. So I did save a ton of money there. And... August was my birthday. I had 200 in birthday cash, plus I did a focus group for 100 and another for 75.
My normal monthly fun budget is 300, so I really went over by 115, which my birthday money covers. But, I really am feeling as though my fall wardrobe is complete. I adore my converse (probably the first pair I've bought in 7 years) and I can't get enough of the J Crew jacket I bought.
With two trips coming up in October, I'm scaling back for this month. Although, I do have my eye on these. And I still have leftover cash. So... perhaps booties? We shall see.
Linking up with Fran!
This month was a great month for sales and deals, right? I was WAY over budget just by September 2nd. I definitely pushed to make some sales on Poshmark in order to things back on track. And it's always fun to get yourself a little something on your birthday.
ReplyDeleteYes! I hear you on over budget by Sept 2... hah.Maybe I should attempt this poshmark thing too. ;)
Deletegreat buys Laura! you scored on so many pieces!!!
ReplyDeleteThanks phiphi! I'm trying not to feel so bad ;)
DeleteI think these are all great basics/classics for fall, so don't feel too bad about the budget! It seems like they were all great bargains too!
ReplyDeleteThanks Katie! The no sales tax was a plus. :)
Deletedang girl, you got that skirt for $13?!?!!! do you love it? it's so comfy, right?
