I don't have a clothing obsession. I don't even like carrying a purse. I keep a wallet in the diaper bag. And I find a few shoes that I love and wear them out. I do get tired of clothing often and want new stuff because I'm bored with the old. But I'm starting to think I'm developing an obsession for projects. I keep doing work on the house, and for every project I complete, I find two more I add to my to-do list. LOL

Hey Diana..are you on makeupalley? It's great over there (I'm slightly obsessed with makeup as well). I have to addiction to MAC that I cant stop.... plus they have how many thousands of product reviews and pics. It's pretty close to heaven

Hi Valpal, thank you, it sounds like a great site to check out! I'm the same as you, a total MACaddict  I just bought (and this is a pretty extravagant purchase on my income) a peach blush, the Viva Glam lipglass and an eyebrow pencil. Oh I'm having so much fun with it!! Tomorrow they're having a MAC VIP night at the department store, can't wait to check out this Summer's new palettes!! Oh yeah, I'm also very much into Revlon - fantastic products at reasonable prices!

I'm the exact same way! Except no diaper bag (no kids), my wallet is in my purse. But I've had this purse for a long time now! I usually just buy clothes when I NEED new ones (others are worn out or I need a specific type of outfit for a specific occasion) or about twice a year if my budget allows. But I do a lot of work to the house too and this is usually where all my money goes

Hmmm ... obsession? I'm not sure, but I like shoes ... heels, watches and I have more pink t-shirts than anyone sane should have. I have never had more than one purse on the go at a time but I think I need a dark green alligator bag. I've started collecting make-up again.
I think I just like new things.

I enjoy new clothes a lot. I LOVE buying formal dresses, which is so unreasonable, and I really don't do it very often, because I have no reason to wear them.
But I DO indulge my other obsession... cute notebooks. I adore them. I Love to start a new list of things to do in an adorable notebook. It just makes me HAPPY. My husband thinks I'm crazy.

I have an obsession with Dooney and Bourke bucket bags. I have the Texas bag in tan and the bubble bag in black and white to name my favs right now. I'm hoping for the madras bag next. I always watch to see when they go on sale online and see if I can work the budget to buy it.

Purses. I own about 25 now. The only qualification is cute. I buy them from Lillian Vernon, Chadwick's, Target, and Flea Markets. Big, small, or medium it doesn't matter. Generally everywhere I go I look for purses. I need to go to Eastern Market here in DC because I'm sure I will find something cute and unique.
I also love Jewelry. I've bought from e-bay and Premier Design. I have been earning free jewelry from Premier Design for about 2 years now because I keep having shows and book parties. Matter of fact I just closed a book party yesterday. I am invited to a Silpada party on the 16th. I don't think I will go but I will buy at least one piece of jewelry to be supportive maybe more as long as I don't go over my budget.
