A friend of mine recently completed their own personal “buy nothing new” month, and said it was one of the best things they have done, and enthusiastically recommended I try and do the same.
Apparently, to honour the concept, one has to refrain from buying anything “non-essential” for a month.
Knowing my love of shopping for all things pretty, I was doubtful, but thought I’d give it a go, even just for a change in routine.
Day 1:
I’m positive I spotted a leopard prowling around in my apartment complex.
I heard leopards are vicious, and not wanting to be eaten by such a beast, decided I simply had to buy a pair of shoes to help me blend in and escape its potential gaze.
If that isn’t essential, I don’t know what is.
Shoes – Aquila
