Consumerism?

I am concerned with my shopping habits. I just went through my bills and I realized that I bought lots of things that I did not really need, like: three pairs of shoes, a pair of earrings, an evening dress, two evening blouses, five everyday blouses, one sports T-shirt, one purse and few items of underwear. And all that in only 3 months! It is also probably the first time in my life that I bought more clothes than books (I bought only 13 books and interestingly 6 maps). In my defense I can only say that several people were kind enough to lent me books, so I was not in such great need to buy them.

Still, I decided that from now on I would buy clothes only on sales and from the second-hand shops. Lets see how that will work.
