{recap} Wardrobe Update - July


I almost made a purchase this month but as of right now (Thursday the 30th) I haven't bought any clothes in July. Success! The purchase I almost made will still be happening, I'm just patiently waiting to see if it (or they...) go cheaper in Net-a-Porter's sale. Refreshing the product page every few hours to make sure it doesn't go to "low stock," if so I'll just buy!

I made a bit of extra money this month from a small side project and some of my RewardStyle income cleared. That is what will be used to make the purchase mentioned above.

THE (modified) RULES
  1. Be mindful of purchases 
  2. Quality over quantity
  3. Basics are best

  3. Well done for achieving no buy July! I hope you do get what you are waiting for in the sale! :) I haven't bought any fashion things this month, although I did see a few things I wanted, haha! I stuck to my no buy July goal!

    Hope that you are having a great weekend!

    1. Haha, well as we know - when I lose my willpower I spend more than you do, so I think you're still okay.
