A Shopping Interlude

I think I need to add another item to my working from home 101 list. Avoid internet shopping websites at all costs.

This past week has been quite bad. Well, the week was good (sort of, there was a skiing debacle) but in terms of entering my credit card details and pressing submit, I am in all kinds of trouble.

ASOS Fluoro Skinny Waist Belt in Pink, $6.51 (free shipping), from ASOS (now SOLD OUT)

Between MagNation, ASOS and The Iconic (oh, and did I mention I visited Paris 99?), the postman is wearing a path to my front door.

Antipodium Sporting Chance Pullover in Glow, $149 (free shipping) from The Iconic (also available in Grey and Black)

It used to be that facebook and twitter were my daily distractions. Now I spend most of the day on these websites, online shopping has become my ‘tune out’ time – a break to peruse the wares of the world instead of reading about what my friends and industry peeps are up to.

ASOS Boyfriend Watch in Copper, $35.78 (free shipping), from ASOS

And in the same way watching what people were doing on facebook while sitting in an office used to incentivise getting out there and joining in the activity, my inability to take a lunchbreak where I stroll down the street to Zara has spurned a love of delivery to my door shopping (I am totally increasing productivity by not having to find a car park in the city, right?).

Vogue US September Issue, $34.95, from MagNation

So, for your viewing pleasure, here are a few of this weeks parcels.

River Island Zig Zag Textured Skater Dress, $28.46 (free shipping), from ASOS

Bring on Spring. Enjoy.

    Oh leah, the yellow is FAB!! And the cambridge satchels are gorgeous – I am sure this is the ‘i blame you’ post you are referring to http://sarahsstyleemporium.onsugar.com/Bargain-Buys-Cambridge-Satchel-23953732 – I just can’t wait for the sun to come out so we can use all these pretty coloured things! x
