Shopaholic suffers from OCD

Think Want, Need, Have has OCD with her shoe organization spree? Think Some Like it Haute has a touch of the OCD when she counted her Lainys? I think I may have beaten them both!

This weekend in an attempt to NOT spend money, I locked myself in my studio apartment and tried to occupy myself…. I cleaned, I worked out, I cooked, I blogged and I still craved swiping the old credit card. I began to think about my wardrobe and ‘spend your money Saturday’s’… I have so many clothes in my closet! Maybe, just maybe I should try to develop some outfits to make the most of my closet.

Let the OCD fest begin. I dragged out my dressform from my days in design school, whipped out camera and started putting together potential outfits. Figured why not! It will help met figure out what I need to buy next time I go shopping AND It will give me 15 minutes of extra sleep in the morning because I will know what to put on. Most of these outfits are pretty vanilla b/c I get to wear them at fun work 🙂 The mall is open for 4 more hours, so I best get back to choosing outfits- I am restraining myself from running out and buying these highwaisted Nanette Lepore pants.
