And The Ban Starts....NOW!

Hello Lovelies!

So I've been talked into doing the almighty dreaded spending ban by my boyfriend and a few fellow bloggers! It's a good thing seeing as I have so much make-up, bath and hair products to get through that it was actually needed. So as of Monday I've been putting a block on all things beauty ect. I'm worried on how this may affect my posts, having no hauls ect but I promise, once this is over I plan to treat myself. Providing I stick with it of course.

 So anyway, I plan to keep you up to date on how things are going and I promise you, I will be 100% honest! So far so good! I've only brought fruit! I really need to stick to this, the money I save will be going in my savings account! (See my bucket list!). And again, a holiday is on my list aswell! 

So far, so good! To satisfy my need to shop I've been looking online, making wishlists and bookmarks of things that I will buy once I've lifted the ban which I will be posting every now and again. I've put my ban on until the 10th of Feb, odd date I know, but for me, It's so I can indulge in some Valentines treats then I'm straight back on it, to complete the 100 days needed. 

In particular I've told my myself, and been told by others, that one shop I will not be shopping in for a while is Lush (heart cracks slightly). I worked out I currently have nearly £150 worth of Lush products to work through, and maybe even more than that, so you can see why I'm doing this. 

I hope you will join/follow me and if you're doing the ban too let me know, we can support each other! I will be giving an update hopefully every week, just to see if I'm doing ok! 

Thanks for reading! 

Love Emily xx
