Fifteen weeks have come and gone without a single cardigan, shoe, necklace or dress bought. This time last year, even this time four months ago, I wouldn’t think it possible, nor would any of my family or friends. After the first few weeks, during which daily anxiety attacks were the norm, it became completely easy and natural for me to walk past the delicious storefronts without even batting an eye. Pretty sure I graduated with honors on my no-shopping degree!
