Impulse buy to spending addiction
As a kid of the 80’s my youth was spent hanging with friends in the park, complete with a curfew as mobiles were only for adults, so keeping an eye on the watch was necessary- god forbid I break the rule.

Cottage Cash
“Oh, I could wear that in the mountains,” I mutter to myself as I add an overly dramatic, minty, puff-sleeved top to my cart. “Ah, yes. The frolic will be mine.”

Shine for Shein
We have all seen the Shein ads. The ones that pop up on Instagram, Facebook and Tiktok. The ones that somehow show items you searched for on other sites or have spoken to your friends about.

POLISHED
I was so bored. Other than staying at home confined to my corner working as a Virtual Assistant, I wanted to find something else that I can do aside from watching TV or listening to my Google home assistant talk to me about things he has told me randomly throughout the day.

Starry Sparkles
I'll admit it, I'm one of those people who falls prey to targeted Facebook ads far too often. Having disposable income and a collector's brain will do that to you. I can't complain, though; many of those impulse purchases have led to discovering favorite shopping sites, like Tee Turtle, one of my favorite places to get adorable (and sometimes adorably offensive) tees. My hands down favorite is the Murder of Crows shirt; yes, it's dad-joke worthy, but it makes me laugh every time.

Something Wicked This Way Comes
I used to think I was above the sway of targeted advertisements. "I see what you're doing, and you won't fool me," I'd think naively as I scrolled through my social media feeds. The feeds were becoming more and more littered with sponsored posts, but I felt impervious.

Instagram Ads Are Taking Over My Life; and Wardrobe.
What do the retired gentlemen in my Floridian neighbourhood and I, a 24 year old Irish Jane Doe have in common? Our wardrobes. (Also back pain, but let's not get into that). Leaving home each morning, I’m dressed and ready to attend any number of events at the drop of a vintage baseball hat; spontaneous barbecue, boat trip (thank you Crocs), Hawaiian vacation photoshoot, you get the idea. There is nothing I like more in my wardrobe than a good shirt; color, pattern, material, shape. Instagram knows this, and douses my feed with ads for an endless variety of colourful shirts as generously as the guy adding oil to salad in that meme.

I Feel Rich: A Curateur Subscription Review
Rachel Zoe is my stylist. No, really! I’m not wealthy or famous and I don’t live in L.A., but every three months I get a box of personally picked items from Curateur (formerly Box of Style), Rachel Zoe’s personal curation service for subscribers.

Magic Algorithm
It happens, for me at least, mostly at night before bed. Tucked in and ready to call it a night, in my head I'm thinking: scrolling through social media right before sleep is bad for you, put it down. The blue light suppresses melatonin... it decreases sleep quality, remember?

Cheap Clothes? Yes, please
Shopping on a budget? Oh, have I got the place for you. Shein has been my all-time, favorite place to online shop. A friend reccommended this website to me and ever since then, I haven't stopped shopping.

Shoe time!
My philosophy is that if many people like my sisters and other females can have a foot fetish then it is okay for men such as myself to have one too! I have this fetish with the brand and styles of Aldo's footwear. I sometimes buy suede shoes, sometimes buy leather shoes, sometimes buy walking shoes. What catches my eyes the most when I buy their shoes is how the wooden heels on the compliment my wardrobe.
