Anyway, I've noticed that I really, really, really cannot resist buying stuff that I've set my eyes on, like I've lost my rational thinking. Now when I go out I've got to constantly remind myself about that question that shopaholics ask themselves (well, at least they do in "Confessions of a Shopaholic") - Do I really need these?
Ha! Well, let me tell you, true to what happened to Rebecca Bloomwood, it doesn't really work. Most of the time the answer is "Yes, I do", "I've got that occasion I can wear it to", "it really goes well with that skirt I bought the other day and I've got nothing to go with that skirt", "I should get more varieties, so I can mix and match"....only once or twice will the answer be "No, I'm a strong woman and I do not need those, it is unnecessary and I have no occasion to wear it to"(kinda long excuse, no?), and I will reluctantly put it back on the shelf and think about it for the next few days
On the other hand, there's this quote I read by Allie Spencer, in one of the five interesting things about her listed by Little Black Dress in her novel, Tug of Love (and I would like to quote):
"The first rule of life is:if you love it - buy it. I'm still thinking about the orange silk fifties cocktail dress I saw in a vintage shop ten years ago ... sigh."
Cool eh? Compeletely sums it up... so, shopaholic or regret??
My twisted version of explaination: I think I will go for controlled shopaholic....life's too short to have too many regrets, and I've had enough of them. =) haha
