SHOPPING

I am having a really hard time not shopping and saving up my money lol. I can't stop buying things!? I've been good at putting some money here and there onto my credit cards though and so they are slowly getting paid off :) It's just going to take me longer to pay them off because I keep spending $$$ at the same time. 

Equipment Signature Blouse in Black

I finally bought my first Equipment blouse. I wrote a blog posting dedicated to Equipment blouses and how much I loved them lol... so I've been keeping my eye on them on Ebay since it is a LOT cheaper there. For my first Equipment shirt, I decided that I wanted to get a black one first since it is a staple color and easy to mix and match. Plus, I like the outfit that Native Fox (CLICK HERE) has put together using the same blouse. The only difference that I would make is to wear a Moschino or Hermes belt instead. 

One of my favorite bloggers Native Fox

Guess how much I got my black Equipment blouse for??

It is brand new for only $80!!

Original retail price: $208

I saved: $128

Woohoo!

Equipment Tanner Colorblock Blouse in Peacoat

Then, I found this other Equipment blouse on Ebay. I wasn't planning to buy another Equipment blouse since I haven't even received my black one in the mail yet, but it was another good deal that I couldn't resist. This blouse is brand new yet there is just one small defect: a button hole on the back of the collar. I bought it anyways because really? Who on earth is going to notice a small button hole on the back of my neck lol

Guess again how much I bought this shirt for?

Brand new for only $60 + free shipping

Original retail price: $228

Savings: $168

SHOPPING

Okay, so I didn't last very long with my no shopping goal. I ended up buying a few items online from Forever 21 and on Asos. When you shop on the American Forever 21 website, they have more items to choose from and the prices are cheaper with free shipping (if you have a PO box in the states like I do). I ended up buying 2 cute Hello Kitty travel cases for my toiletries and makeup. Hopefully I go on vacay soon so that I can actually use these lol. I also bought a grey sweater with studs from the Capsule 2.1 collection. This is an online exclusive collection only available on the American Forever 21 website! 

I was planning to stop shopping at that point, but then I fell in love with an outfit that blogger Fashion Toast (CLICK HERE) posted on her website. In it she is wearing a grey fur Isabel Marant coat with a white shirt, black skinnies, black sunglasses and cute booties. I liked her outfit so much that I searched the web until I found a grey coat (faux fur since I'm brokeass) that was similar to hers. I finally found one on the Asos website on sale and I'm so lucky that I snagged the last UK size 8!

I love faux fur vests.... I have about 4 of them =P

J Brand 811 Twill Skinny

These are one of my favorite pairs of jeans. Firstly, they have a good stretch to them and the material is very soft. They are very comfortable to wear! I usually have a hard time finding jeans that fit me well but these jeans are perfect. They also come in different colors every season (I have own a pair in tiger eye and a light turquoise color). I highly recommend buying a pair... and I'll probably end up buying more when they go on sale. They normally retail for $176 US (I got ripped off and bought my turquoise ones from Aritzia for $200 something) but the colors always go on sale at the end of the season. When I bought my tiger eye ones I got them from Gilt.com for only $89! There is actually a sale on right now on Revolve.com so if you find your size then grab them before they are gone! (BUY HERE)

Hermes VS Moschino

I really want to buy a black leather belt. I've been browsing a few belts on Ebay but of course I've been trying very hard not to bid on them... because I'm trying to save my money now (pffft). Which brand would you choose: Hermes or Moschino? I kind of want to buy a Moschino belt first!

I picked up my free Sephora birthday gift as well, which is always a different gift each year.

Last year I received a free Philosophy shampoo/showergel in 1 bottle which smelt like birthday cake.

This year it's a mini Benefit kit that has eye mascara and sheer highlighter.
