After a 3.5 week shopping ban…
I’m SO glad slouchy boots are in this season… because it’s sooo much easier to tuck in jeans. Face it, you can’t ALWAYS wear skinny jeans (and the only reason I buy skinnies are to tuck into boots otherwise I’d never wear them) , besides I like the other back pockets on my other jeans (R&R’s) that aren’t skinnies more. Hehehe. But anyway, I went to the mall today to only buy a pair of black boots which I didn’t even get, broke my shopping ban, felt guilty as hell but now I’m just happy.

I’ve been obsessed with purple all year so I finally found the perfect pair of purple boots. They are too cute!

I was contemplating whether to buy this pair or not… then the SA told me that I can untie them and scrunch them down near my ankles for a different style and I was like omg I HAVE to get these.. Plus I fell in love with the color! ♥

I also had to use my $100 off coupon from Bebe; of course, you had to spend a certain amount which I don’t want to disclose here to scare certain people and the fact that I went way over that amount. LOL. Bought 2 casual jackets (pictured above), a bunch of sweater dresses, tops, t-shirts and tank tops (not pictured because I couldn’t find the pics online and am too lazy to try it on myself right now). I checked on the website and the stuff is cheaper than in stores (eg. the jackets were about $150 each but only $130 online)!!! WTF. Oh well. I’m not done with jackets this season yet, I still need more trench coats and dressy wool coats.
And then there was a couple of Wilfred sweaters from Aritzia (couldn’t find pics online!).
Grand total? You do the math… I can’t say it or else I’ll cry.





HAWT!

Those purple boots are absolutely gorgeous. I am very into purple this year. I have a pair of purple boots that look similar except they are a faded material. I love that you can scrunch the silver boots. Makes them so worth it! Where did you get the boots from?

I <3 purple. It’s one of my favourite colours anyway, but I have so many clothes with purple on now! Those boots are gorgeous. And what I do is NOT ban myself from shopping…but buy a little something or a few (smaller) things a week and that way I won’t feel the absolute urge to COMPLETELY blow all my money when the urge gets too much!
