We are well into March and I am still “abstinent”! About a year ago I carefully packed up my winter sweaters—oh, yes, cashmere and cables; sumptuous silks and feminine flounces. I have yet to find this box of sweaters. I survived this season with one sweater that remained behind as a Spring chill “back-up”. I used some jackets, blazers and I overused the one sweater I could find.
But the outcome of the equation is that one can survive a season with but one sweater. I will have the entire summer to seek out the missing box.
I’m doing better–it’s been a long time since I cruised E-bay or Zappo’s or various other on-line sources. I cannot quite give up looking at catalogues but I resist. I am increasingly stunned by my own virtue and wonder just who was that person who “needed” scarves by Hermes (and then did not want to spoil them so never wore them!)
I hope everyone else is thriving.

Natalie, Love your post. I am currently fantasizing about living in my latest Anthroplogie catalog–life there seems so beautiful and carefree. I have noticed since the recession I am not getting as many printed catalogs which is smart and a good move to reduce waste. That said I do miss my glass of wine and my catalog moments after work. It’s such a guilty pleasure.
