Smart Shopping feels sexy!

Good things come to those who wait!!!!

I am so glad I waited to evaluate what I actually had in my closet before hitting the store today!

It was 20% off all new arrivals today! I only wound up getting a new pair of black trousers but I saved $8 by waiting until today. I found the fit was off slightly with everything else I tried on, so that's all I bought.

I am totally a Trinny & Susannah addict, and if there is one thing I have learnt from the two doyennes of fashion, it's that FIT IS THE ULTIMATE FACTOR. It also helps stop impulse clothes shopping, because you have to put sustained effort in to find something that really works.

I am resisting the gorgeous shoes I saw in my favourite shoe store - they are $90 (yikes!) and though I know I would wear them often, I'm going to check out Winners first, just in case they have what I'm looking for at half the price. Either that, or wait for the sale and find a coupon to use with the sale price! But it was so hard walking out of that store. I have microfeet, so the display shoes always fit me. Which means temptation and impulse buying is a lot easier. It's a blessing and a curse.
