255 Days without Shopping - 110 to go...

This week has been TOUGH!!  Good thing I have friends that are keeping me on track.  Last Friday I left a meeting and went to South Coast Plaza, shopping mecca in Orange County.  I hit several stores and ended at Ann Taylor.  I have a wedding to attend the end of the month and I am at wit's end as to what to wear.  The only dress I have that is appropriate is one that I wore 2 years ago to the last wedding I went to. Now this wouldn't be an issue but the wedding is for one of my BF's from said wedding party of two years ago.  In other words, most of the same people will be at this wedding as the last and I don't want my picture taken dancing with my gf's in the exact same dress!  And yes, they will notice.  My friends know I have gone Cold Turkey, but really, pictures?  Same dress?  Aaacckkkk!

So I called another friend after putting 3 dresses on hold at Ann Taylor and left her a message that I was desperate.  She texted back immediately and told me to not go back, to head over to her house and check her closet.  I have tried 3 dresses from T's closet and so far nothing has worked but I am not giving up.  I will try again.

I am really considering making a one time purchase, however.  All three of the Ann Taylor dresses fit like a dream, I could wear them for work, and they were very reasonably priced.  What to do?  Can I hold out?  I just don't know.  Help me...

Love,
