Not spending a dime

The title of this post has a double meaning. You're probably wondering what this moodboard/outfit has to do with it. Well, let me explain the double meaning:

1) The moodboard/outfit was made for a giveaway on Stéphanie's blog: Style Lab. We had to put together our perfect summer outfit with items from the River Island online shop and Sté would pick a winner afterwards. She actually chose 5 winners and out of those there will be one BIG winner who receives a gift voucher worth €100 to shop at RI. How cool is that?! Best blog birthday gift ever (StyleLab blew 1 blogging candle, hihi ^^)! Now, I need you guys again... Vote for me on this poll and I might receive the voucher to shop my perfect (Belgian) summer outfit! And that's what the not spending a dime stands for... if I win, I won't be spending anything but the voucher, haha



2) I woke up this morning and realised I spend to much money on small and stupid things like food, train rides and so on... All my well earned money seems to dissappear due to these silly expenses :/ I decided to keep my money safe and not spend a dime as of today until friday (saturday = shopping time, sunday = sea side time) and this every week. Sounds good, no? I'll make my own lunch at home, so that I don't have to buy it at work and drinks are free (duh, I work at Coca-Cola Enterprises ^^)! This way, I might have more money to buy clothing or technology stuff :p Yeah, I know I'm quite the blogger geek!

Heel fijne outfit dat je daar bij elkaar gekozen hebt. Het verbaast mij ook altijd hoeveel ik soms uitgeef aan drank en eten en zulke dingen... Good luck ermee!

I knowww, al mijn geld verdwijnt gewoon aan kleine, nutteloze dingen zoals vuilzakken kopen of naar de schoenmaker gaan -_- Goed ideetje, ben benieuwd of het je gemakkelijk lukt!

Ik ben nu afgestudeerd als bachelor kunst en cultuurbemiddelaar, en volgend jaar gaan we voor de PR :-) ben benieuwd!

Succes met de RI wedstrijd, may the best one win :) X

I love the picks. I've already voted for you :) I have exactly the same problem with spending money, I always try to eliminate food and transport expenses when I stretch my budget :)
