Things I would like to buy, but won't.

I'm on a 'spend less, save more' kick. Nonetheless, it's fun to dream.




If I had a boyfriend, I would bet that people would do nice things for us and you could bet that I'd write thank you notes on our behalf on this Dempsey & Carroll stationery. It's on sale!




If I lived closer to Central Park, this Liberty of London for Target bicycle would be mine. I actually quite like to bike, it's just not really feasible in Midtown East Manhattan.




If I hadn't just bought two scarves, I'd likely scoop up this J. Crew vintage silk scarf. I think it would add the perfect pop of color to a Winter-to-Spring transitional outfit. Gonna take a scarf-buying break.




Ask me to make a wish list without J. Crew and Kate Spade. I dare you. Oh, how I long for these pearl and bow Ivana sandals. They would perfectly match these pearl and bow earrings I already own.




This ruffled tank from Magpie Lovely probably shouldn't be on this particular list, because I have a feeling I'm going to cheat and buy it.

I'm obsessed with those sandals, but like you I am trying spend less, blah, boring… That stationary is precious too.

I'm so in the same boat.
between my big sister's wedding and my vaca in May all my extra pennies are spoken for...great to internet window shop though, sort of gives me the same buzz!

Cute stuff, but good for you for being frugal! It can be tough, I know.

Did you hear that Winnie Cooper is pregnant?! :-)

Thank you for posting about the adorable stationary. Starfish and Sundresses posted a discount code and I scooped them up for a real bargain.

Well, you've exhibited great restraint in not even considering any of those other items. And a fab black tank top is an investment piece, really. (Fashion rationalizing. It's a blessing and a curse!)

Hi...new to the site and I have to say, the Liberty of London merchandise is awesome! I work at Target and we can't seem to keep this brand on the shelves...soo cute!

I'm obsessed with that bike, but have no idea where I would bike.
