I would if I could but I can't so I won't

So back when we first implemented this spending freeze, I read this article about a "financial fast." I didn't read it for advice, really... just out of curiosity, mostly. And of course our spending freeze is lasting more than 21 days. And what this woman proposed was a bit more extreme than what we're doing (probably because it only has to last for 21 days).

But one thing she suggested was no window shopping. And I have actually sort of generally tried to stay away from looking at things that I want but can't have, particularly online.

However. I kind of enjoy looking at new clothes and stuff, and KNOWING that I can't have them is kind of good. It means there's no dithering about whether it's worth it, how much I will wear it, and so on. And it's enjoyable to see what's around and look at all the pretty clothes.

So, with no further ado, I present you the clothes I would buy if Torsten hadn't quit his job. And by "clothes" I mean "dresses," obviously. Because what's more fun than a dress? Also, nearly all of my dresses are now too big.

1. A lovely LBD. I need this, right? Because I don't have an LBD that fits anymore.

2. A floral sundress. It's almost spring! Florals for spring! Yes?


3. You can hardly go wrong with summery J. Crew. Seriously.


4. This dress is purple. AND it has one strap. I like that!


5. More florals. But that's a good way to pretend that it's May now instead of February, don't you think?


What about you? Anything (dress or otherwise) you've been coveting? If so, do you think you'll actually buy it?
