So everyone knows about the bad economy (womp, womp) and everyone knows their bank accounts are not what they want them to be. I know myself mine is getting smaller and smaller. I see this and I keep telling myself that I need to cut back but it is SO hard to do so when you are in the fashion field, with a slight shopping problem. ( I say slight but I mean huge). I still am living off my parents and as a college student times are getting even worse. Everyday I get a call from my mother saying "STOP SPENDING MONEY WE DO NOT HAVE IT!". And I really really want to but seeing the new fashions because of being in the fashion field makes it even worse. So I started thinking, Why is fashion so expensive??? Why do you have to have labels??? And why are do we all feel like we need to have these things??? I try and try to buy things on sale or at discount stores but knowing there is better things out there makes it so hard for me to even want to buy them. I feel as if I can't buy on sale, because of the sigmas that come along with it, it is a real bad feeling that I do not want to have anymore! I know stores and designers have tried to make lower end lines to fill this kinda of gap but still nothing is like buying the real thing. I really want to become that savvy shopper who still looks good but on a budget I just can't seem to get there yet. So this is the start of a new era for me I am going to try to become that person hoping this blog will help along the way. So wish me luck! I'm gonna need it!!
