Shopping tendencies

I don't know what is happening to me, but I recently came to the conclusion that on-line shopping doesn't attract me as it used to.
It would have been nice to say that shopping in general doesn't attract me, but obviously this is not the case... although, to be honest, it wouldn't be such a bad idea to stay clean for a month and avoid shopping... :| Is there anyone else who accepts the challenge?

But back to the main topic... I visit Kurtmann and Miniprix on a daily basis, looking for treasures, but I don't fall that much into sin. I think the pace of orders is a quarter compared to the same period last year. Even ZARA, MANGO, ASOS don't tempt me anymore... the thought of having to wait a week or two, but also the risk that the pieces may not fit me, often prevent me to place an order.
Ironically or not ... even though I'm a professional shopper... this year I had a few failed experiments with sizes. I'm not totally discouraged, but for now I need to take a timeout... most probably I will pay them a visit in autumn...

The difference of pace, compared to last year, is successfully completed by shopping in local stores.

How come did this happened?
Out of convenience... Out of haste... Out of need for change...

I'm usually shopping out of need, but I sense a tendency of change in this regard too and I don't like it. Shopping for pleasure. It's stupid that I feel somehow guilty. I'm just spending my worked money. The thought that on long term I could actually use those money in more constructive purposes, instead on clothes, haunts me... that is why I hope to keep my moderation!!!

How is it with you? Are you shopping out of need or for pleasure? Do you feel the need to become more moderate? What kind of shopping do you prefer?

I can't stand...

... the incapacity to speak to the person in front of me as if he was my equal... only because he has the pretense he is a boss...
... to be told: "beginning yesterday you are no longer in my heart", without being given an explanation or at least a reason for not being able to give me an explanation...
... the unidirectional dialogue... we are two, but I can't say anything because you don't allow me or because you are to tired by your own speech and now you don't have enough energy to listen to me...
... to see people thinking they are always right and not giving others the chance to tell their own vision over truth...
... to see rich people criticising poor people because the don't have the right accessories or because they don't wear a certain accessory according to their standards...
... to be repeatedly defied, although I'm continuously saying the working schedule starts at 8 o'clock and you continue to come at 9.30... only because you are an arrogant spoiled brat...
... to see the refuse of many of my Romanian cocitizens to emancipate.

P.S. I will allow myself to give a piece of advice:

Respect yourself in everything that you do and you will learn to respect the people around you.

Back to routine

I usually don't like to talk about my outfits.
I'm sure everyone can look at the pictures without having to read some
insignificant descriptions.
But this time, I want to share with you some details about the skirt I'm wearing
:

1. belongs to my sister.
2. I gave it to her as a birthday present.
3. $ 50 of the skirt's value was assured by a voucher that I won.
4. I wore it 3 times, so far.
5. sister wore it once.

Although it is a great skirt is very difficult to wear. Is voluminous, you must be careful
continually not to catch it somewhere. When you need to climb or descend stairs you risk to stumble and fall, if you are not careful. It keeps you very warm and can't be worn when outside are over 35 degrees Celsius.

Regardless of these shortcomings I love it and therefore I host it with love in my wardrobe.


P.S. Even the top has a story, but I will tell it in a future GIVEAWAY post.
The winner for the DIY bracelets GIVEAWAY is Alice Albert, from Alwand Blog.
Don't be sorry if you didn't win because soon I will start a new GIVEAWAY and maybe then you will be lucky.
