Now that I am officially a "grown-up" with "grown up" responsibilities, I have forced myself to save a little money here and there, invest in my 401K, and never stretch myself beyond my means. Mint has been my favorite companion, emailing me every time I go over my budget so that I have the strength to put away my pocket book at the Chanel make-up counter. (Side note: If you are like me, and need help saving money and budgeting, check out Mint now. It's a dream. You'll thank me later when you have enough money to retire by 40.)
All that being said, I have been so good this past month with my money that I have decided to treat myself to a mini shopping spree. I was inspired to "treat myself" after watching this week's episode of Parks and Recreation. Did anyone see it? If not, watch this little gem and you'll understand my mindset-
Don't you love it? So what am I going to treat myself to, you ask? These pretty little things...

See? Only a few small little splurges. Oh and did I mention it's almost Halloween? I can't wait to post pics of my costume. I never dress up, but for some reason had the urge to do so this year. Happy Friday!
