Closet Fashionista's Spending Challenge: February Recap & Giveaway Winner!



  Tuesday, March 1, 2011 at 8:15 AM   |    Post a Comment     Tagged:,,, 
New York Fashion Week recaps are done!! *phew* Ha ha, now we're back to normal programming. I'm only posting my absolute favorite London Fashion Week collections so you'll be getting some of the regular posts coming back. I'm going to do some Dress for Less looks based on some of the fashion week looks, so if you want to request one just leave a comment on the Request a Dress for Less page!

And now here's this month's recap! I was a very good girl this month, so yayyy for me! :D
  • February 6 - Leopard Flats at H&M $12.95
  • February 19 - Mascara, Eye Shadow, Reeses Cups $10 
  • February 20 - Michael Kors sweater and Oscar de la Renta sunglasses at Burlington Coat Factory $20
TOTAL: $42.95
LEFT: $157.05
    And I didn't count these 2 things because I used my paypal account and had money in there from advertising on my Harry Potter site so it was "free" ;)
    • February 10 - Domain Name and Business Cards for Closet Fashionista  $27.29
    • Feb 16 -  Owl Pocket Watch at Etsy $8.89
    But even if I did still count these the total would only be $79.13.

    Remember, if you want to join in on the action check out this post!

    FINALLY, the winner of the Fashion Flirts Giveaway is ...*drum roll* ... comment number 23...Ashley of Two Eyes in the Mirror! Congratulations Ashley, I will be emailing you shortly!

      Ahhhh yay I'm so excited! Congratulations to me! I emailed Linda and CCed you a few minutes ago.

      I was looking at your sidebar yesterday and was impressed you'd only spent $43. I thought maybe you needed to update it, but nope! Great job this month! I'm inspired.
