Umm, yeah... So I totally blew my budget this month. I can't even blame the boyfriend for bringing home purchases for me, though he was pivotal in me picking up quite a few of these items (the windowpane Theory sweater and wrap leather Theory skirt). I mostly blame Bloomingdale's and their ridiculous sales this month!
While most of my purchases this month were just fun, I did pick up two necessary work items. I've got a lot of conferences coming up and I stopped at Elie Tahari to buy some blazers. I also seemed to be on a big leather kick this month and picked up two leather skirts. I have been watching the Diane Von Furstenberg leather pencil skirt and it finally hit a price that I was willing to pay. The leather is beautiful and it's a piece I'll be wearing for years.
Kate Spade - $179.10 (398)

Luckily I'm out of town for half of the month of March, not much time for hitting the malls! Maybe I'll be able to make up some of my budget. I'm certainly set when it comes to pink purses!
Total spent in February - $1,693.09
Price before sales - $3,241
Total savings - $1,547.91 (47% off)
Amount over budget - $1,193.09 (whoops!)

Some of these items are still available online! Some aren't and I've given you some similar options!
