January Budget

This post is kind of an addendum to my December budget post, as most of these purchases were made in the last three days of December. I decided my pink velvet heels weren't a good fit and went to J.Crew Factory to exchange them. I found a Point Sur jumpsuit that was 60% off it's already reduced price and thought it would be fun to bring to California. Then due to my poor planning I didn't hem it in time (it's like four inches too long, so not even going to work with heels). In some fantasy world I was going to have all this time before my flight, I was going to run errands, hem a jumpsuit... Instead I frantically packed and then unpacked trying to get my suitcase under weight.

I also made some purchases that I had sent to California; the Zara straw handbag which I wanted over the summer and successfully talked myself out of got marked down and I could no longer resist. I also decided to give a Knixwear bra a try, since I'm so tired of my painful underwire bras. I'd say the bottom line is, I like it enough. It's not a 'wear with everything' kind of bra, and doesn't replace my underwire bras, but it's great for casual days. I don't typically include bras in these roundups, but if you are thinking about trying it and want to know my thoughts, I'd be happy to share.
