This one teeny tiny click leads to dozens, even hundreds of other clicks! This is the point when you are gathered and squashed up with all the other specks of dust in the hoover and there's no escape because if you're anything like me - you have NO SELF CONTROL. Anyway, I'm sure you know what happens next...
Luckily, recently I have been restraining myself and it has taken much will power to not order anything. However, that hasn't stopped me looking, oh not at all. What I've done instead is pin the items I think i desperately need to my tabs on Google Chrome and then I can look at them whenever I like, so I never have to have one of those scary thoughts just before I fall asleep about how I may never ever find that item ever again.
Of course, my pinned tabs start to take over my entire Chrome bar and that's a sign that I need to calm down and have a quick yoga moment. So I look through the tabs again, at least 5 times and think to myself - "do I really want this? Do I have anything similar? Will it look good on me?" and many, many other questions. I do this mainly because a dress that I once thought was the bee's knee's ends up being disliked by me in the near future.
I currently have 10 things on tab, clearly I need that yoga moment right after I finish writing this:P The moral behind this blog post is don't rush into anything (unless Chanel or Dior decide to have the best sale ever, online only and everything is under £50 then rush, fast) and do something similar to what I do, in tabs, add links to your favourites, make notes of the style number and after a few days, look again and really consider why you want it so bad? Can you buy it in store instead?
Of course, there's always a justification for buying clothes, accessories and shoes! But make sure it's financially justifiable!
I hope you enjoyed this blog post, what are your thoughts on online shopping?
