Mama did a bad, bad thing.

But…. I don’t feel like cryin’.

It was brought to my attention that Leona Edmiston was having a sale. A big sale.

I tried not to venture over to her site because I’m on my shopping ban and didn’t want to tempt myself. But venture I did.

I did more than venture. I clicked. I fell in love. I asked Hubby to fetch me my credit card. But you’re on that shopping ban, he said.

But it’s Leona. And it’s on sale. It’s only $65. If I wait until the end of the month they might be all gone. And I love this dress. Rebecca from Neighbours has this dress. I love when she wears it. I’ve loved it for ages. Oh, and there is free shipping. See, it’s meant to be. Fate, I tells ya.

I think he tuned out because in no time I had my credit card in my hand typing in the numbers and he was off doing something else.

Honestly the temptations have been crazy. There are sales everywhere. In the mail this week I got a gift voucher to Myer which is burning a hole in my purse as we speak, plus a coupon to my favourite store, Country Road. I really am being tested.

I promise to be well behaved for the rest of February.

Forgive me savings, for I have… shopped. xx

  1. Which colour did you get – or did you get them both?!

    That is a very good price for a Leona dress (although I think they are ridiculously overpriced usually for the fabric and overall quality), I hope we get to see a pic of you in it!

  2. if you have only broke the shopping ban once i think you are doing a fantastic job! plus its a dress that wont go out of style and you got it at a steal. you were pretty much saving money. investing for the future! that sort of thing!
    did i help rationalize?

  3. Teneal – I know. The CR Voucher is soooo tempting, and feels so wasteful to not use it.

    I might have to layby some things for Lacey. CR is such good quality.

    CS – You’re the best. I need you as a side kick when I am trying to convince.. anybody!
