Frugal February - a wishlist.

I decided that this month I would attempt to cut back on my spending and save a bit of extra money. I haven't picked the best of months - my car went in for its MOT tonight, booking a holiday soon, Valentines day [not a big deal to us but we still do little presents] as well as my boyfriend's birthday on the 15th. But it's a shorter month...I can do it, right? And why not just torture myself with a wishlist!?

I have been so close to ordering one of the new Illamasqua Speckle nail polishes. I have a feeling I'll end up giving in, especially as they're limited edition! I'm all over statement necklaces at the moment, this one from Zara is just gorgeous. Another temptation!
I have bought a few more pieces of druzy since making these pieces of jewellery. Yet I still want more. It's just so beautiful!
The main thing I'm saving for right now is a DSLR. I'm trying to keep a little aside each month for this baby. I'm still looking around a bit, but I have heard excellent things about this camera so I'm pretty set on it!

Are you having a Frugal February? What are you currently lusting after?

  5. I'm trying (and failing) to hold back on the spending a bit this month too... I'm not even buying anything exciting, I just keep buying too much food!
