Hello!
Today is the day.
The 100 day shopping ban commences!
No clothes, shoes, bags or accessory shopping for 100 days.
Yes. I am crazy.
Last year at exactly this time i started out on my first 100 day no spend..
You can see my first starting post here
Midway here,
and the end here.
So i hear you ask, after all that why the heck am i doing it again?
Well my friends, i am well aware i crave new pretty clothes.
I love the thrill of the shop and the feel of new clothes on my back.
I am materialistic and if i really scrutinize myself it’s not a trait i like.
I am over indulgent.
I do not need another sweater (or coat goddamnit!).
Sometimes blogging makes me feel i constantly have to buy new things to bring fresh new looks to you my lovely readers.
Sometimes i forget i have a wardrobe full of lovely, hardly worn clothes that are just begging for some air time.
Sometimes i need to just.stop.shopping.
Simple really.
So it begins; a full 100 days with no clothes shopping.
I stood in-front of my wardrobe this morning and saw a state. Clothes physically bursting out.
What i could also see were opportunities.
I saw outfits and new combinations, I saw hardly worn clothes just waiting to be worn.
I saw potential and no money spent.
I felt excited!
I know my weaknesses, i know come feb/march i will want to start buying new season spring wears and that will be my toughest time. But i shall be strong. I have done this before and i will do this again.
I hope you will come along for the journey. And if you would like to join in then it would be fantastic.
There is a hashtag on twitter for us no-spenders just holla #100daynospend and join in the hell fun!
I’ve also included a linkup below for anyone who wants to join! This won’t be a weekly linkup up, but perhaps once a month just to see how we are doing and to read any posts you may have written.
The one thing i learnt from last year is support is greatly appreciated.
When you are in the throws of a no-spend, its great to know you have other ladies around you in the same boat. We can count on each other for support and to vent when needed.
Don’t forget if you want to join in but you aren’t sure, just join! Even if you do 30 days or 50days think how wonderful it will feel to have accomplished that!
For all those joining me GOOD LUCK and for everyone else…wish us luck, we’re gonna need it 😉
Feel free to grab this badge and display it on your blog post/sidebar so we can all keep in touch through the 100 days.
Good luck with your no shopping.
I am just shopping for food lately, and that is boring, hahahha
Thank you for joinig Share-in-Style.
I have added you to my blogroll now not to miss your posts.
Happy Mondayyyyyyyyyyy
food shopping is boring isnt it haha!
thank you lovely,that makes me so happy to be on your blog roll!

This sums me up so far, my house is overflowing with shoes and clothes ive worn once if ever and STILL i disregard them to go out and stuff more in! I'm under no illusions this isn't going to be tough, but Im determined to at least try!

You've really hit the nail on the head.. trying our hardest and opening our minds to the fact that really, we don't need another dress haha!
Best of luck lucy.. i'm here if you need me!
xx
This is a great idea, great concept. But it would be so hard not to have new things.
I am thinking about joining because I can sew new things from fabrics I already have at home! That would be the right challenge for me then. New things but no spending 🙂
That would be wonderful Martina, sewing things is such an accomplishment.. I wish i could sew.. but alas i can not.. in fact im awful!XX
Ok so maybe I'm not as strong willed as you but I have declared 3 months of no spend….just not consecutive months. My first one will be January and then possibly February (if it's going well). I'm planning a no spend in August which I found fairly easy last year as it's a kind of inbetween seasons, nothing month. Good luck Rachel. I'm in totally awe x
well 3 months is amazing Donna and nearly 100 days anyway.. spreading it over a course of the year is actually more reasonable. I thought i should have a month off in summer too as august isnt great shopping, i totally agree with you, its normally wet but warm here and thats not fun to buy or dress for;)
Good luck with you no spend. and whilst you are shopping i shall live vicariously through you 😉 xx
I followed your no spend last year and I think I made it 14 of those days but this year I am going to try it again, like you I have a bursting closet ( plus I just came back from an outlet shopping trip so I should be content)
haha! 14 is still good! and i think the fact that we are just aware of our spending is a good step in the right direction XX
good luck with your second time, i'm sure you'll do great! i'll definitely do this or another year of no spending, but at the moment my life as a student already limits the amount of my shopping enough, haha:-) xx
thank you Laura. i bet student income does make shopping limiting! but a challenge can be fun!XX
GOOD LUCK!!!

thank you JJ!XX
We're going to regret this so much come March! Xx
haha! i know.. 100 days spending ban makes me actually hat spring 🙁 least we ahve each other *hugs* xxx
I'm doing a 50 day ban! It is a big birthday for me at the start of April I am also blogging about it! But I have included a few extra things in the ban as well as clothes. Good Luck!
well 50days is brilliant and a massive achievement. good luck vicky, shall be popping by the blog to follow your journey!XX
Perfect idea for such a long month. (I was paid before Christmas and don't get paid again for what seems like an age!)
I may well join you.
X x
me too! its such a long god awful month! I hate jan!!XX
I'm glad to have you lot with me for the first 100 days at least!!
yay! thanks lovely! wishing you all the luck, although i know you won't need it! XX
GOOD LUCK.. sounds like such a cute idea! I'm wishing you the best and I WISH I had the self restraint that you do
it would honestly make my day if you checked out my blog and if you like it.. maybe follow it (even the notion)
francesca2000.blogspot.co.uk
not gonna lie Francesca its not easy.. and sometimes i down right hate it! but it teaches me to reel it in sometimes, which is definitely needed!
Thanks so much for your kind wishesXX
Oh this is sorely tempting Rachel! I'll have a think about it. My one proviso is that I am getting married this year and will need to buy clothing and accessories for that, so if I saw anything I liked in the next 100 days I would have to pounce! I'll sleep on it anyway, in my bedroom of FULL sliding wardrobes, with shoes under the bed, overflowing laundry baskets, and overspill in the spare room, attic, etc…. X
welcome to the 100 days lovely lady! it does teach some self restraint, but with your wedding coming (eeek!) you are going to have such wonderful things to look forward to!XX
How interesting idea "100daysnospend" . For sure many people want to try as well after visiting this blog. Good Luck then. Great!!!

thanks so much Nora! its going ot be hard but very worth it!XX
Best of luck Rachel! I did 2 months before Christmas & after my deliveries next week I'm going to do a no spend until March! I'm having some work done on the flat & so it'll all be decor shopping for now! x
