Total: $207.80– $194.02 income earned (via eBay & Poshmark clothing sales/affiliate links) = $13.78 for November.*

*I also ordered some Madewell white denim from Poshmark that ended up not fitting which , so I’m trying to sell it again on Poshmark, along with a few other items (find me here and use code JOIJL for a $5 credit!) I also ordered a few items during Black Friday/Cyber Monday, which would put me into the red, so we will see what I keep and reflect that in December’s budget, hopefully with some clothing sales to cover it!

$600: annual clothing allotment
– $556.46: total spent so far in 2016 {adjusted via returns, etc.}
= $29.76 remaining for the year

Are you tracking your clothing spending or thinking about it for 2017? I’d love to hear more! After 3+ years of monthly budget posts, it’s helped me learn a lot about my habits…and be conscious about my money and find the best deals, combining sales with cash back sites like Ebates and Splender. If you have questions, post it in the comments and I’d be happy to answer!
