October 2019 Shopping Diary
October was a stressful month for me, which led to a lot of online browsing as a way to unwind.

Hello from the land of slow Internet. I’m away on a trip (not for fun), which I packed lightly for. Here’s my travel capsule wardrobe, plus an update on what I bought and decluttered last month.
Target is celebrating 20 years of its Design for All program by bringing back some of its greatest hits this weekend. This is not a post about how groundbreaking Target was, though. It’s about how I got caught up in the shopping craze.
August kept me busy, which was good for my goal of curbing shopping. I simply didn’t have the time and bought just one item. I also had to remove some shoes from my wardrobe because of problems with my feet. 🙁
It’s time for my monthly consumption check-in. This month I bought three things. Considering that in the first six months of the year, I added a grand total of five items to my wardrobe, three feels significant.
And that’s a good thing.
This month I added two items to my wardrobe. One of them was fast fashion. 😬
Just a quick check in on my consumption in May. I bought only one thing this month.
I was very good about not consuming much in the first three months of the year. April, though, is another story.
I’m sliding back into my old habit of indulging in retail therapy when I’m feeling a little down. Time to make a wish list and stick to it.
