To Buy, or Not to Buy?!

Ok ladies, I know that I'm a total nerd for blogging about this, but let's face it - I am a nerd. Most of you are aware of my addiction to shopping and clothing so this may not come as much of a surprise. But I am in a bit of a pickle. I found a dress at White House Black Market (one of my favorite stores!) that I completely adore! When I first saw it on the rack in December it was $180. It's a fabulous black cocktail dress that fits me like a glove, but I just couldn't stomach paying that much for it. Well, I went back yesterday and it's on sale for $99.95. Good deal, right? I've been really trying to be more responsible with my moolah lately to get my car and credit card paid off and this is such a hard decision for me. So, I'm asking for some help. Should I buy it or not?!

LOL, definitely not. $100 is not worth it when next summer you will want to buy a different one right? Ask yourself "will this make me totally unhappy if I DONT get it?" and then decide :)

It is an adorable dress, however I think it's a much better idea to get some of your car paid off...

Hmmm...If I were young, hot, and not married, I would totally get it! Not to disagree with the other people, but it's a dress that you could wear on multiple occassions (little black dress is a must!) and it's really cute. Just saying, I would, but I'm also not smart with money so maybe you shouldn't listen to me. ;)

Honestly, that's a lot of mulah, but if it's something that when you look in the mirror and say 'wow', then you should totally get it. Wow clothes are a good investment.

Hope I am not too late on commenting before you purchase...but like you said, if you are spending your moola wisely, I wouldn't pay over $50 FOR IT! It's cute, but sometimes if you wait it might go down a little!
You and I both totally are shoppers! My son now goes to the mall with me and picks up outfits and says, " Mommy! THis is cute! Try this!" Jon laughs that I have turned out son into a shopp-a holic at the mere age of 3 hahah! oops!
