These early morning photos with the blinding sun shining in my eyes are just not flattering.  Eeps!  But I wanted to show you this OOTD because I like when I wear the older items in my cloest.  It reminds me time and again that I don't always need something new.  It's such a tempting time of year, with all of the post-holiday sales beaconing, isn't it?   I actually feel a little guilty and shopped out right now. 

What about you?  Are you shopping out are do post-holiday sales not your thing?
