Hey GRRRRLs!
I feel so energized by reading your updates and goals for this year!
Like a dope, I kept checking the 2014 thread and wondering why no one was updating! Haha. AHHHHH! I feel silly!
2015 is the Year of Know around our house. So I will not be buying any makeup at all for one year. Or anything 'fun' for myself. No clothing, shoes, books, music, movies....nothing. It's a year dedicated to knowledge, experiences, and learning. And working out!
I might be buying a dress for my brother's wedding in July, but that's it. Hubs and I will be making gifts for Xmas this year, so I need to get some mad skills in the meantime. We are allowed to buy supplies to learn new skills (ex: yarn to learn how to knit, etc). I'm in the process of starting our blog - talk about intimidating! How do you blog ladies do it? haha writing for other people's consumption is a bit nerve wracking, but I figure my story might be able to help others. Especially my debt story.
I've been wearing my fav. combos lately and been getting a lot of compliments, so that reinforces the no buying. I can create my fav. looks without buying anything new, so why would I buy more? I turfed a lot of relatively full products because they had gone bad or I didn't see myself using them up, so that also reinforces the no buying. Being on a 'team' of no/low buying with you guys and hubs helps with my accountability.
I'll figure out if I can post a pic of my Christmas look for ya'll - I love it so much!

Then I started looking at the packaging, if in fact that is the actual packaging. Nothing special I'd say. And the colours....probably dupeable. This year'll be hard for me, but it's supposed to be. I need to keep repeating the mantra "Dupeable....dupeable...." :cheer:
But then sighed with relief as I read the rest. You can be strong! Looks like they did a seriously mediocre job of Cinderella anyway, probably because they know they can get away with it. Let's continue all of our progress from last year! The Hourglass palettes were posted today and I picked the one and only one I will be purchasing as my birthday gift to myself when they're available. Nothing else for me at the moment!
