Very little. I am trying to cut back with the economy in the crapper, some of my personal savings and life goals a little behind plan, a baby arriving in April, and cash being king at a moment such as this. Going to plough any major expenditures I might have made into the markets, as it seems a buying opportunity is at hand.
Still, I'm sure I'll find room for some minor layouts - likely a small handful of Chan shirts during my upcoming trip to HK, perhaps a pair of sping/summer shoes (loafers?), and I always have my eyes peeled for interesting thrifted cufflinks.
I really would like to have 2 suits made up bespoke and a nice summer linen sportcoat, but I am going to hold off til 2010 on both. (Hope I can keep up this promise to myself!)
Perhaps my biggest goal is going to be to resist the impulse buys from the B&S forum, Gilt, BB clearance, etc. that have drained my bank account in 2008 in a death of 100 tiny (and not so tiny) cuts.
