Retail Therapy for the Fiscally Challenged...a new blog.

Retail Therapy for the Fiscally Challenged...a new blog. I am the queen of eating my feelings and shopping to make myself feel better. This year, however, I plan to go to law school and I can NOT be spending an inordinate amount of money and my fruit tarts, knick-knacks, and generally pretty things that make me happy...um, almost every time I go out! Yeh, i know bad right? A $5 magazine here, a $40 dollar Starbucks addiction a month, etc. etc..it's not a pretty world; well it is, but not for my bank account.! HaHa! So as I cut back; I'm not going to forfeit my obsession for pretty things. The plan is that I'll be just refraining from buying everything I want, on credit or otherwise, by posting on here what I most want :-) Feel free to post what you want but can't buy too, we are in this together!!

So here goes!

I really love things to organize and decorate my home, I don't know if I would ever be happy not getting things and constantly rearranging my spaces. I <3 <3 <3 BOOKS! So ergo, anything having to do with books or book accessories is UP MY ALLEY! <3
Like these bookends from CB2


I love this chair for my desk:


I think it would really go well with my bedding set I have from Martha Stewart:


What do you think? Is the Chair too green for the bedding set? They have a similar floral pattern so I was thinking maybe?!

Ugh I could so go for a Iced Venti Green Tea Soy Latte right now! But, alas, it's literally 0 outside, plus the no spending thing...!

What did you find today that you thought you needed?

    <3 Comments I <3 Thanks guys! Heidi we should meet up soon... I've really wanted the vibram shoes for a while!

    & @ Alex, with the Kindle, you can't download books from the library with overdrive.com that is exactly why I bought a nook... Look into into the non-color one if you are a true book junky like me, this one won't hurt your eyes after attempting to devour whole books at once :-)
