Long Break, New Start And The Latest Oniomania...

Anyone who stumbled upon this blog must have wondered why there hasn't been anything going on here since the end of August!
I didn't mean to neglect the blog or anything especially so shortly after starting but that was not avoidable... so here I go again after a long but much needed break from the online world, where I (an internet addict since the late 90s!) actually managed to boycott all activities involving turning a computer on.

I came to a point where I needed to work on my intensive internet consumption and prove to myself that it IS possible to live without being online (at least for a while) and that it wouldn't be all that bad... :))

And to my own surprise, I did manage to stay away for a couple of months AND I had absolutely no urge to constantly check Emails, Facebook, bloglovin and the numerous online shops that I would usually visit everyday.

Anyway, now I'm back in my natural environment, and it's time for a fresh start. And because I have been doing a crazy amount of shopping lately that I would have blogged about, here's an impression of some of the stuff I bought recently that I was able to check off my winter wish list...
Dark blue was and still is the dominant color this winter in my closet, along with whites and blacks..
And I can never get enough of Blacks&Whites!!!

Clockwise from above: Top- 81 Hours, Leather Jacket, Collar & B&W striped Pullover- Zara, Ankle Boots- Cheap Monday, Black booties- Zign, Pumps-H&M, Skirt- Monki, Sweatpants- Zoe Karssen.

This is a small glimpse into the purchases of the last couple of months! This is not all but I think it gives a good impression of the shopaholic in me...

But I must say that I was able to stick to buying things that one ends up wearing a lot and things that can be well combined with what I already have so I'm quite happy about my (rational) buying behavior ;)

Of course, every now and then I did indulge in a spontaneous thing or two that I couldn't resist, but hey that's the onio-maniac in me .. I can't (and don't want to) do anything about it :)

However, it's time to give the poor exhausted bank account a break...let's see how long I can control myself...I even started saving! Something that is usually very hard for me to stick to.

That's what I'm saving for... the Furla CANDY bag in white!!! I am crazy about white and cream colored things these days.


Will keep you updated how this saving thing is working out for me! :)
