You just stopped me from buying multiple pairs of inexpensive earrings I do not need.

Side note-I do need a new gold chain to replace one I lost for my ancient coin pendant if you have anything you’d recommend!

And for chains, I’ve found Mejuri has reasonably priced gold (real, not plated) options!

Totally agree on limiting the Amazon buys and buying good quality jewelry. I’m also doing these. Or not doing these! I’m also looking for good quality items by up and coming or small batch artists or retailers.

Featuring independent designers and retailers is definitely something I want to do more of this year—thank you for the reminder!

Oh, darn! I like seeing all the new clothes you buy! I tend to buy too much also! I am trying to cut back, only buying things I really need. For example, I live if Florida and of course it is very HOT. I don't even own a black blazer. I really needed one last year when we went to a very fancy restaurant and didn't have a jacket to wear! And this month has been really cold here for Florida, so I am investing some cash in a nice black dressy blazer. I do tend to buy a lot of long sleeve items which I wear in our "winter" which only lasts about 2 months. I am much older than you are but I still like fashion (I am in my 70s) and will never stop looking and buying what I like!

Not to worry, I will still be shopping (and sharing it with you). Just fewer, better things—and a classic black blazer definitely qualifies, even in Florida!

I've seen a lot of bloggers lately showing outfits different was with the same items. That would be interesting to see. I follow a blog called "No Fear of Fashion:". I think you would really like it.

Hell yes to not buying 'cheap' jewellery. (Although beware of the "gold" necklace that isn't really gold!)
