September Closet Additions

I made some poor choices this month. What stands out the most is the anchor wrap bracelet. It was a Poshmark purchase and I foolishly didn't think it was possible for the size to be anything other than what I'd consider 'normal bracelet size'. Alas, it's huge, but not so much that I could just loop it around an extra time and go on with my life. I went to a local bead shop to see if they could help me resize it but they didn't have large enough end caps. So naturally I went on Etsy and bought some. However now both the bracelet and the end caps are just sitting there, as I'm afraid of messing it up. Do I move forward in trying to resize it, or just cut my losses and try to resell it?

I mentioned that I treated myself to a new handbag this month, the Danse Lente Mini Johnny bag. Paypal money tends to burn a hole in my pocket, and while I know I justified it in my mind since it was money that I'd earned through the blog and through eBay, in my heart I know that money should have gone into my bank account to cover all my other impulsive purchases for the month.

Last October was a no shop month for me - it wasn't that I'd planned it, it just happened. However this year I'm feeling that it needs to be the same. Time for that budget reset I've been talking about, and clearly needing.
