saves me


I figured out the trick to saving. Without a goal, stashing your money is nonsensical. The concept alone is about a long look forward into the future. Not knowing what looms in your horizon or even bothering to look means not caring very much about getting there at all. 

I was doing so well. But one look at this twentysevennames dress and I was lost. It took five minutes to say, Yes. A round trip of ten minutes to jog back to my apartment to fetch my credit card and to jog back to the store. Slightly puffing, I waved my magic plastic around and it was mine. Knowing the trick to saving is plenty different from actually doing it successfully.

You should read "Overdressed". It'll save you money, mainly out of guilt, but it works. But that dress is really cute, so...

Even with a goal in mind I find it difficult to save, besides, sometimes you just gotta treat yourself. Love the 27names dress on you by the way, it is such a sweet cut. I never saw any of the dresses in person, is it a chambray denim? x
