Joelle Charming: Things I Love...Shopping

So, as some of you know, I'm not shopping right now because of my Wear Everything challenge that I started at the beginning of the year. I'm still very proud to say that I have gone exactly forty-three days now without buying anything for myself. Well, at least clothes/shoes/accessories-wise. I think the only reason that I've been able to handle not shopping for almost a month and a half now is the hours that I've spent on websites like boutiques.com and shopstyle.com, looking at clothes that I love and putting together outfits. Here are a few things that I've come to love in these past forty-three days:

Left from top:

1. Shoes: Kate Spade New York, Clara

2. Shirt: Vince Striped Tee

3. Dress: Aqua Maxi-Dress

4. Skirt: Vivienne Westwood Striped Skirt

5. Bag: Kate Spade, Hit the Dock Stevie

I have never gotten anything from ModCloth.com, but I know that if I actually had money, I would buy my entire wardrobe from the online store.

And look at this beautiful jewelry I found by Marolsha on Etsy:

I think that when I'm done with my challenge, I might need to reward myself. And go shopping. Duh.

What are you all into these days? Have you ever gotten anything from ModCloth?

Much love and Happy Saturday!
