Confessions of a Shopaholic...The Color Purple

As I'm going through my drawers,
I realized I've become obsessed (again)
I become obsessed quite easily.
But don't you worry, I'm not obsessed like the crazy lady in the Beyonce' movie.
It's just shopping obsessed.
And as easy as it comes, it goes.
For now, me and my obsession are in love the color purple.

I was digging for some clothes and ran across a few of my favorite things:
Now I dont think this is the exact top, but mine is pretty much like this.

And for $6.80 you can get one in every color!
I love that you can wear it on a hot summer day with shorts.
Or dress it up with some dark jeans, cardigan, and boots later in the evening.
Shhh...here's a secret...Get 10% off all your Forever21.com orders by entering code:CHIC21
PLUS free shipping for orders over $75.

While I was school shopping for the kids, we found these tanks for $2.00 ea.

Of course, I just had to pick up the basics - black and white, but totally threw in a purple for fun!
It doesn't look like they're only $2.00 anymore , but they're on sale for $2.99 - $8.50 for various colors.

I just won this gorgeous dress in eggplant on ebay for ONLY $10.00!!!
oh yeah, you read that right! A whole 10 dollars!
It BETTER fit!
I can't begin to tell you how just how much I love ebay. (that's a whole other obsession)
I know ebay clothes shopping makes people nervous.
But if there's a brand that you love that you know fits you well, you might wanna give it a try! (C'mon Cis, you can do it!!)

These are a few of my favorite ebay sellers.
They sell Victoria Secret brand clothes that start out at only .99 cents,
oh yeah, you will never find a better deal.


And since I'm obsessed, I totally need a Iman Global Chic City Tote in Plum

Isn't it gorgeous??!!
And look it's almost Sold OUT!!
I bet it won't become an aquarium, like my awesome summer purse turned out to be.

Oh yeah, and since I was trying to find pics of my clothes, look at what I found...


It's only $6.99 at Forever21.com add it towards the $75 for free shipping!
I think the rest of my family would be horrified!
You see, I'm getting my daily dose of fruits and veggies.
In Plums and eggplants- it's good for my diet too!
Happy Shopping!

All I can say...I think it is time for an intervention. This is my wife and I love you. Just glad you are on EBAY and not Rodeo.

I'll bet you look fabulous in purple too!! Not everyone can pull it off!

Follow along through the fun and agony as we try to figure out how to raise two completely opposite teenagers- Teen 1, the fiesty yet inquisitive one, Teen 2 quiet but wise-cracking and our ball full of energy known as The Boy. It aint always pretty, but we’ll sure try to make the best of it!
These are the stories of our lives…
