In those two weeks i have been on oxford street about 5 times, due to uni and work, and westfield shopping centre at least 4, if not more. It's hard not to visit when it's only down the road! After all those shopping trips i had been really good and not bought a single thing, at least until i visited westfield the sunday just passed. With no work to go to i found myself wasting a day and it was gloriously sunny, so i got out the house for a spot of window shopping, visiting my usual stores, river island, H&M, Zara, Hollister as i was there and a few others. I went into the mens All Saints and, again found myself being drawn towards a denim shirt i had seen earlier in the week, and with a price point of £50 i thought it was a steal for a piece of All Saints. But i resisted!!
Anyway i got all the way home, was here for about 20 minutes before i had to leave again to buy the shirt!!
i was in shock at myself, i am beginning to think if i actually have some sort of a problem, a shopping addiction that should not be built into a guys genes regardless of what course he studies or what his hobbies and likes are! The thing is i didn't just buy the denim shirt, i ended up buying one from Hollister as well! spending nearly £100, ok, so some of you will be reading this and thinking that isn't very much, but it is to me! a student!
The next day i wore the shirt and was very happy with my purchase, after all the dreaded double denim is on trend at the moment! Who knows when i will have to hang that shirt in wardrobe and not be able to pull it back out till it hits the catwalks again. Meeting friends before uni i even got a compliment from a very fashionable friend, so that made me even more pleased! Actually two compliments, one from work, but then again they do work in Dorothy Perkins ha.
But today!! Another close friend, (well, was close ha) pointed out an apparently better one i could of bought from next! One was not amused, and now i have doubts haha, im sure these will be gone when i wear it again!
Today i resisted two more purchases from Zara, however it is playing on my mind now! Good Job Westfield is closed this time at night!
But From this day forward i am not buying clothes, unless essential! (HA im sure i could describe anything as essential), and i mean it so much tomorrow i am cutting my overdraft! Get it at the source i say!
So here is my Shirt, so you better like it and no hater comments ha

P.S sorry mum who i had rang between my two visits to westfield on sunday, and who, up to now, believed i was a good son and didnt spend my money on clothes!
