I don't know if it's the winter blues, the three pounds I gained, or the the 50th birthday I just celebrated, but I AM SO BURNING ALL MY CLOTHES ON JUNE 26TH. I plan to go to our village hall to inquire about a burning variance in the village.
I just can't stomach looking at them, dry cleaning - I mean ironing them, honey - washing them, and WEARING THEM.
I know... I have not worn all my pants to date this school year or all my sweaters or all my skirts or all my blouses. That is how I know that something is wrong. Before, I would choose an outfit and get it ready. NOW, I am like, "Whatever. Who cares. I am not even ironing this; I'll just throw a sweater over it."
What is really getting to me is that almost all my clothes are my favorite designers! The very ones I miss!
I just want new! I am so Jonzin' for new right now! But I do not want to shop.
I have learned that I simply do not like to wear my clothes over and over - which I have not even done. I just like to have something new to wear. I don't missing shopping. I don't miss spending. I don't miss traffic.
This coming week of school is Regents week - a festive four day testing spree sponsored the NYS Board of Regents. Thus, I will be in jeans - most likely the same pair each day since I am in this"Who Cares?" kinda mood. Frankly, my jeans cost more than many outfits!
I think what I have to do is fake it - pretend I care and love my clothes! Maybe I need to talk to them - "MK! This is so chic!" "Calvin! Ah, I have the perfect necklace for this suit!" Maybe...
With the new school year, I thought I would try something new personally - a year of not buying more clothes, shoes, purses - more anything. My curiosity is spurred really by how much money I can save by not purchasing more... of anything for just me! This journey will begin with my last shopping spree before the first day of school.
