Gastadora

For sure everyone went through a phase of bad spending habits in their lifetime. If you didn't then good for you and please leave some comments and share your secret. As for the title, it's not something applicable to me right at this moment. I'm no big spender not until I would realize my wallets empty. There's no such thing as shopping ban cause the more you restrict yourself from buying, the more you end up spending. It's like skipping breakfast and doubling the amount of calorie intake for lunch. You tend to make up for what's missing and yes, the deprivation from practicing your credit card's high purchasing power. You can spend all you want as long as you don't end up drowning in bills. But who am I to say that? It's your money. You can do whatever you want with it. I don't care. 

As for the blog title, it's Spanish in origin according to Wikipedia. Thank goodness there's no more black out in the virtual world and we're back to our social network crazed world. Gastadora means BIG spender or extravagant when translated in English. My friend Mathea opened her own online shop today and yep, you got it. Shops name is Gastadora. I find it pretty ironic and witty. Don't you think? If you have time, please visit her shop and part of the proceeds will go to the Augustinian Children in Cavite, Philippines. Fashion for a cause, yes! Happy Shopping! :)
