Did I shop!?!


If a tree falls in the forest and no one hears it, does it make a sound? We've all heard this question before... As trite as it may be, I couldn't think of any better way to ask the dreaded question have I broken my no shopping rule just 27 days into the new year??? I did indeed purchase this recycled organic dress (pictured) from H&M. It was a steal...only $19.95!!! In spite of the price, it still SEEMS like shopping, right? WRONG! I sold a couple of items on eBay and used a portion of what I earned to purchase this little beauty. So, in a way, I recycled --just like the dress ;o). I plan on wearing it Super Bowl Sunday while rooting for the Steelers...only because I'll be wearing their colors You Know What it is Black & Yellow, Black & Yellow!!!

  27. Black and yellow! Black and yellow! ;].

    Yes girl, we must be sisters because I'm notorious for selling and then using what I earn to buy more. eBay will be the death of me! Love that place =].

    Great buy!
