Shopping Ban: Week 18

After cheating on my shopping ban last week, I kept myself in check this week.  My bank account was pretty low after buying my Fluevog Heather boots, so it wasn’t too hard.  However, there was a trip to Anthropologie.  I tried on this gorgeous skirt in a 12, but it was just a bit too snug.  I asked the store associate if they had any 14′s, so she ordered it for me from the Anthro website, no shipping fees attached!  I love Anthropologie.  I haven’t gotten it in the mail yet, but hopefully this size will work.

Passage of Time Skirt  $49.95 (on sale)

I also got a fantastic freebie this week.  The wonderful people at Dansko noticed my blog and the fact that I wear a lot of discontinued Dansko styles.  They offered me a free pair of new Danskos, and I happily accepted.  So please welcome the lovely Dansko Sally in brown:

These shoes fill the gap for brown shoes that I was looking to fill at the beginning of the ban.  I realize they aren’t pumps, but honestly I like them better than traditional pumps.  You’ll be seeing plenty of outfits with these.

So overall, I didn’t spend any of my$24 of  ban money this week (which can only be used on second-hand or hand-made items).  I spent $50 of my free money (which can be used anywhere) leaving me with $7.50.
