Rebecca Minkoff Splurge or Save?

               So i've realized lately that when it comes right down to it i HATE spending money. Now i'll drop $20, $30, $50 without really thinking about it but when it comes to something i've been lusting over for awhile and haven't been able to afford I hang on to the bills like my life depends on it. Saying that I have recently gotten my tax return and i want to get myself something nice as my birthday is coming up. Hence the blog title! I have been drooling of the Mini Mac And MAC clutch bags for about 2 years now and just always found something better to spend my money on. It's interesting how i will just go out and buy that new eyeshadow palate thats so gorgeous *cough, Lorac Pro, cough* but when it comes to this $195 (or $290 for the MAC clutch) bag i turn into the goblins at Gringotts Bank. Now yes, that is an extreme amount of money on a handbag but it's something that i would get SO much use out of and is a very classic bag that really wouldn't go out of style. HELP!! I just can't seem to enter my credit card information. Am i just teasing myself with pictures or do i actually not need it and is that why i can't purchase. Here are so pictures from the Rebecca Minkoff website of my obsession. For those who aren;t familiar with Rebecca Minkoff the initials stand for: Morning After Clutch. Which I think is hilarious and maybe 15% of the reason i'm in love with the bags.

                                              The pink is the mini version for $195

And this beauty is the MAC clutch for $295

Does anyone else have this problem parting with money on items that could be well worth the price tag but throw it away on things that probably aren't worth it?

Welcome!

Hello my name is Cait and i have a shopping addiction.

     Well now that that is out of the way, hey there! I'm a 22 (almost 23 YIKES!) student (sorta), makeup addict, fashion admirer, and travel enthusiast. I have been back and forth with the idea of blogging for awhile now and it probably would have been a great thing to start when i went to Paris for 2 months or when i found out i would have to take the year off school but instead i decided to start at a completely random moment in the middle of the night. Typical Me.

       I love anything and everything beauty and fashion! I have a serious makeup addiction, as stated above, and my collection continues to grow. I would love to share my thoughts and impressions of the products i love and not so love with anyone who cares to read about them. I also love fashion and work at DKNY at the Outlets in my hometown. I actually love my job and enjoy most of the customers i get to interact with.

      So, to anyone who is actually reading thanks for suffering through my ramblings and welcome to my blog!!
