I'm so annoyed with myself. Feel as though money slips through my fingers.
Purchased a vintage 1940s dress recently, which was battered and bruised, however, it was cheap and I loved it.
Planned to wear it on Christmas Day, after I'd had repairs done and dress cleaned. Paid £35 to have lining added and some holes stitched. Dry cleaner advised to hand wash as chemicals would damage fabric.
Carefully, had washed, dress virtually fell apart. Lining is now hanging down lower than the dress. Repaired fabric as best I could, bought a new belt (that didn't suit) wore dress on Christmas Day and felt horrible in it.
So sick of myself, wardrobes full of stuff I buy and don't wear. People in charity shop are my best friends as I'm constantly donating. I've even got a 100 year old dressing table in my garage waiting to be up cycled don't know why I bought it as I don't even need it.

Does anyone else feel as though they're constantly wasting money?
